Coca Cola Commercial - I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony) - 1971

"I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony)" is a pop song which originated as an advertising jingle, produced by Billy Davis and sung by the Hillside Singers, for Coca-Cola, and was featured in 1971 as a TV commercial. The Hillside Singers' version was released as a successful single the same year.

The New Seekers also had a hit with the song around the same time.

Awww, it's like watching the future being destroyed by sugar water.

They say this is the greatest commercial ever made. It may not sound like much but considering the impact television has had on our culture its definetely something.

I remember this from being a kid. Coca-Cola was on to something way ahead of it's time.

@ipimees, Coca Cola got some of the most interesting ads using these classic songs. The one featuring the Polar Bears & the Penguins to the beat of The Beach Boys is a classic. The drinks suck, at least they got good commercials I agree.

my social studies teacher showed us this and its stuck in my head now

[mrceleb2006]

Classic, eh?

At the time it seemed like a simple answer to a world in chaos and I would venture this song to be seeking the common denominator in the basics of mankind. Down with corn syrup, Viva Mexico.

@frosted1030 sometimes good music simply outweighs weight.

@ipimees Are you some kind of skinhead pig? Not following your orders DUDE!

[ipimees]

it is kinda sad how a pretty hippy sounding song is being used by a big corporation to advertise their products.

Sad indeed, fuck capitalism
