  • if John Lennon ever saw this commercial, he would've been pissed.

    they are using a song that is about ending fighting ,and stupid Nike uses it in their commercial for shoes!

  • Not a brilliant video.

    Revolution is not about corporate companies selling overpriced shoes

see all

  • LONG LIVE THE BEATLES

  • That's Sabonis at :05 and :36, right?

  • I see people are still engaged in the God-Like worship of the original pop band, lol! I remember in 1987 when this commercial came out and was quickly taken off the air as if some sacrilege had been committed. I was just a kid then but it's still a dumb issue today. If Paul felt so strongly about his works, why didn't he out-bid his competitor? He was certainly FAR wealthier at the time! And please, you can't be the greatest SELLING artists of all time and NOT play the corporate game. Grow up!

  • Moron. It has nothing to do with that. Clearly, Nike is using the song to state that they are bringing a "Revolution" to footwear.

  • @risimas101 Good try but the beatles didnt sue Nike, Apple Records did. Also, John Lennon couldnt have been pissed off because he wasnt alive to see the commercial. His wife (who was a shareholder and director of Apple) even supported Nike using Lennon's song in the commercial and let Nike use another John Lennon song in a later commercial.

  • Oh please GTFO with the commericialism complaints the beatles were the fuckin highest selling group of all time and appeared in many movies and did a commericial for cigarettes for Christ sake

  • @blupita08 he did and the beatles sued nike and capital records!

  • 0:52

    those were the golden age.....

  • I think it was a good idea to use this song in a commercial . The only thing this commercial is doing is making John Lennon / The Beatles more famous. I see nothing wrong with it.

  • Hmm. Sorry; I just don't think Lennon was thinking about a pair of crappy fucking shoes when he wrote this song. He was 7 years dead when this commercial came out...and Yoko was (and still is) a complete asshole.
