All the commercials for pop back in the 80s had style. Plus they were all real funky, too. :)

was it law for every commercial in the 80's to have a saxophone?

Marvelous Marvin Hagler, the baddest man on the planet during the 80's. Nobody wanted to fight him. From 1980 to 1986 he knocked out everyone he fought except one and that was Roberto Duran.

Just FYI, that is Marc Cohn backed by a group of amazing session musicians.

What makes these clearly visible images "subliminal"? It seems more like a straight-up, in-your-face move by Coca Cola, possibly designed to create a craving for Diet Coke amongst the dope-smoking loser crowd. That is, assuming that the image is indeed of "marijuana". I see nothing "subliminal" about it, however, regardless of the image.

This ad appeared around the same time period of the "New Coke" debacle. Clearly, the execs at Coca Cola were clueless as to what made their product desirable.

I forgot to mention the saxophone with fire coming out at 0:19 (giant marijuana pipe being lit up); smoke from sax with fingers holding bong/pipe at 0:22; POT LEAVES at 0:23; then big backdraft of a pipe hit bellowing from the bell of the saxophone/giant bong pipe at 0:25.
