Reminds me of the Charlie Brown X-Mas special on CBS

This made my day!! After years of this nonsense, I get a "FUCK YOU"! You are the best!!!

this is such a cool commercial yet such a fantasy....bc in real life random people out and about and around wouldnt randomly gather around the town's Christmas tree hold and hands and start singing....that would be nice and fun...but it wouldnt happen sadly....i guess people are more to themselves these days who knows.

wow! this really does remind me of my childhood I would have been around 6 when this aired I must have been watching a charlie brown christmas,or frosty the snowman,or some other christmas classic when this aired. funny how somtimes a song can evoke a memory of times gone by! this is awsome and i still drink coke too!

I heard this song when I was seven. And decided in my seven year old heart and mind, my concept of God.

back when Christmas was Christmas and everyone had fun and nobody complained about it, and if you didn't like it or celebrated something else you were free to and there was no bitching about it all; better times.

@KiharuKitty because some ding-a-ling out there would remind of the realistic fact that you can't possibly buy the whole world a coke...we live in a world with no imagination any more..

The orginal add was over one minute long with people from different races singing!!
