1980's 7-Up Christmas Commercial.

[zcarrell]

I still have this on tape somewhere.

[TheScaletIbisNW]

I am only 27, I can't believe I remember this!

[midnightdiamond100]

Seeing this ad made me wish that 7up Cherry would be sold in cans again instead of in 2 liter bottles.

[cstoczyn]

Long Live 7-Up!!!!

[cstoczyn]

HUZZAH!!!!

[cstoczyn]

LOL

[cstoczyn]

OMG!

[cstoczyn]

Long Live Santa Claus!!!!

[cstoczyn]

HO-HO-HO!!!!

[cstoczyn]

Happy Holidays!!!!

[cstoczyn]

Merry Christmas!!!!

[sugarrrsmack]

I guess there's vodka in that 7up. lol

[cstoczyn]

@sugarrrsmack FTW

[evilwarcow]

Did not know that Santa Claus has Metachlorients in his bloodstream.

[Tesiay]

How ironic. Pretty sure Coke created the modern Santa image.

[BeenieBomb]

@Tesiay well, they didn't creat how Santa looks, but they use him as a trademark Christmas thing :P...

Forever alone

[irismey]

Back in the days aluminum can! It looks more like beer than a soda drink.

[AntiVenom36]

The guy who made this commercial must be a Star Wars fan because one of the elves just used the force to a can of 7Up from the fridge.

[AntiVenom36]

Santa must really like 7Up more than Coke.

[Superchickenman159]

[CoolConejo]

im part of the 80's cus i was born in 89 , woo

[partyxday]

AKA SPRITE!

[Draknfyre]

@partyxday

Wrong. 7-Up has a different flavor than Sprite. It's like Coke and Pepsi, two products, with the same "cola" flavor, but they taste different.

7-Up today especially tastes different because they changed the formula a few years ago.

[AnimeLuver70]

i havn't had this pop in years it seems

[housetrancformer]

who cares what this souless generation has to say about the 80s, it was the best decade in human history, PERIOD. At least we didnt shot up our fellow class mates or become unholy warriors in a phony religion.

[ChrisFrenchComedy]

I was 12 when this aired in 87, man, did we have it so much better back then. . .even though my folks tell me now that we truly didn't, I still FELT like we did, and that's what counts.

[sr71ablackbird]

@ChrisFrenchComedy i wish I was that young again. This aired the year when i graduated high school

[videoman954]

what the hell dose that elf have the force?

[tuntunkhanrocks]

I love 7up on my birthday. which is on day after christmas. December 26

[seansaccount101]

to this day i can't drink 7up or Sprite cuz when i was a kid every time i was sick with a stomach virus, all my mom gave me to eat was dry toast and 7up...bleech!!!

[thenextbigchristmas]

all the 80's christmas commericals really hold special memories and they sure do bring back alot of memories

[sonikdude49]

miget happiness

[TrueTubePoops]

To make the elves happy, Santa put alcohol in their soda.

[SnowbirdFlock]

80's Christmas commercials could make a person feel good. That sure isn't the case today.

[08WSChamps]

@SnowbirdFlock yea i know i was a kid of the 90s but my parents had 80s tapes w/ 80s christmas specials on them and some of these comemrcials would show up. 80s and 90s christmas comemrcials were way better and way more sincere than the stupid meaningless commercials of today. i dont understand y they almost make christmas feel less special.

[SnowbirdFlock]

@08WSChamps Yeah the 90's christmas commercials were good too!

[sr71ablackbird]

@08WSChamps if you look up the name of Madalyn Murray O'Hair and thank her for that. making it feel less special, that is.

[DreamWarrior87]

@SnowbirdFlock I totally agree with you

[SnowbirdFlock]

@DreamWarrior87 Most modern Christmas & Valentine's Day ads are just "Show her how much you care; buy her a diamond necklace from us for only $64487.99 + tax!"

[DreamWarrior87]

@SnowbirdFlock Haha that's true, while it seems that we have to buy material things, and they don't have to do much for us...everything is for a reason these days, just not the good ones. The 80s were a better decade, and not only for music and movies.

[dchizzle09]

does the elves know 7up is non alcoholic?

[1ring2rule3pigs]

Ahh the 80s.

Magical.

[RetroCaptain]

I remember that ad!!

he he

[DeathbyHarlequin]

0:12 he used the force

[GHWTVideos]

the 80's slogan was "Feels so good comin' down!" I have a 7up can in my room:) some color is faded tho.

[wtcvidman]

@GHWTVideos

I used to pass by a building in The Bronx with that slogan. I forgot if it was a 7-Up bottling or distribution center or if it was just a billboard on the building.

[vintagemistro]

man those cans were square. they look huge. gotta love 87

[lcvd1]

@vintagemistro Yeah, they look like one of those engine tune up oil additive cans from today

[sr71ablackbird]

@vintagemistro I know i love 87, that's when in hell i graduated from high school and got out of that hell hole.

[rsoreo]

@sr71ablackbird

what is the hell hole?

[sr71ablackbird]

@rsoreo The high school that I was in !!!!!

[BlackNGoldRules]

I remember seeing this commercial when I was a little kid.....and now I work for them.

[sr71ablackbird]

@BlackNGoldRules good, have them make glass bottles the norm again.

[Yimpinkilp]

Why is this comment hidden? It works so well.

[thenextbigchristmas]

i remember seeing this seven up commercial a long time ago i really wish all the old christmas commercials came back on TV cause those were the real good times

[reachingsumwhere]

agreed

[jhn128]

Goodness, we have this commerical on a few VHS tapes that have some christmas programs that my family recorded 20 years ago and that you can't buy! I love it!

[carledwardsgirl99]

good commercial

[skillyou1]

Lmao! first the elf goes Jedi then they all get drunk, huh?

[Chazwozel]

Oh Christ, you're from the Canada of Canada.

[Dreadpiraterobbers]

hahahahaha.... If you are under the age of 25 stop trashing the commercials, they hold some good memories.

[Dexfan90]

@Dreadpiraterobbers i'm 20 and we had a bunch of these on vhs after we taped disneys christmas carol, this was one of them. i wasn't born yet but still got to enjoy them as a kid. good memories

[slamb07ful]

@Dreadpiraterobbers Some of my best memories were watching these old commercials with my mom,sadly she's no longer with me but it's nice to be able to come on here and relive the great times in my life..

[cstoczyn]

@slamb07ful Me 2

[smak64]

For fuck's sake stop being an asshole.You're insulting the globe.Maybe we should get Kirby to kill you.Better see if I can repair that nuke from his kirby 64 commercial...

[Chazwozel]

Did you ask for a tuk for Christmas?

[Chazwozel]

You're also Canadian. That's punishment enough.

[Chazwozel]

Man I remember this commercial. Classic. If you're under 25, get out of the comments section.

[garageman1989]

0:16 what is he? a jedi?

[CHUI372]

i remember the 80's 7-UP was tasty, the actual one is a bit rare

[HGbunny]

Uh...what was IN that 7-Up?

Make 7...Up Yours!!! That was a great 7-Up campaign.

And "Ah...the Un-Cola!"

[magnacore11]

old school 7-up..especially when it was served in the nostalgic green bottles...was superior to todays product. It sucks how companies continue to make shit worse...aside from better.

[wtcvidman]

@magnacore11

I remember those old green glass bottles. My aunt who has always been a 7-Up fan (it's pretty much most of what she drank until recently) used to give me & my brother 7-Up in those old 8 oz glass bottles. All sodas taste better out of glass bottles. Cans are 2nd after glass & plastic bottles suck. I heard they're going to totally reformulate 7-Up to compete against Coke & Pepsi sometime soon (maybe 2011). That could mean they're going to turn the un-cola into a cola. A bad idea.

[bbarrus82]

@wtcvidman Seriously, soda out of a glass bottle rocks.

[sr71ablackbird]

@bbarrus82 They still have it around It is also available on the internet at beverages direct dot com

[AdamsApple1963]

@bbarrus82 I so agree!

[arrif826]

lol,wtf?!

[kbjenkins]

One of my favorite old commercials. Gotta love nostalgia!

[FlavorRed]

I almost forgot that the cans looked like that back then until I saw this commercial again. Which I do remember this commercial as well as the cans. I was 8 so that's more than old enough to remember stuff.

[vidcirman666]

doesnt Santa advertise coca cola?

[foxbox66]

whoa, thats ine old style can...

[comedylover88]

I notice the shape of cans seemed flatter at the top.

[goldenlady1983]

I haven't forgotten this one! I still love it!

[pcrissfan3]

i loved this one....great commercial

[NeoCypo]

WOW... I didn't know elves knew how to use the Force from Star Wars!

[grinder324]

That was a different 7UP commercial, QuietusSnape. But from what I remember, it has the same elves in it.

[specterkev]

Wow this one remained buried for so long until i saw this one... wow loong time no see..

and the force was with that elf!

[ConwingL162007]

wow...that was old....I forgot about that one

[QuietusSnape]

didn't this ad have a second part to it where you could send away for a calader that was of santa's beard? I seem to remember that.

[madx80h]

Thanks for sharing both of these 7up ads... they're my fav

[Alfrunk]

too realistic
