  • nice!

  • Nice! Well done!

  • boobies!

    also... another great song. 5stars

  • is she naked?

  • Another gem, Jonathan. Ivory works the lyrics with grace and humor. There's a video on YouTube you've probably seen that covers the same basic topic (search for Dove - Evolution) but it's a lot more scary and a lot less fun. Good luck with the contest.

  • Very funny. Great song.

  • Good song!

  • I would have gone with a combination of A, D, and E vitamins instead of C and B. While C and B complex vitamins are increasingly used in skin care, A/D/E are old-school.

  • woah, this was weird cause i just took my first class on advertising today :O

    also was that your wife? she has a really nice voice!

  • The video for this song gives the criticism much greater impact; Ivory ironically undermines the very products being named off by appearing so 'dehumanized' by them. The use of lighting/visual effects is also a nice touch, as it takes the level of advertised radiance to an absurd degree. Overall, it highlights unrealistic expectations created by advertising, but also the undesirability of attaining them.

    Hehe, this was the perfect song to start my school year. Best of luck with the contest!
