    Was just about to say pretty much exactly the same thing.

    I get images of ad execs sitting around a big round office table. One by one the execs hop up on the meeting table, drop their drawers and squat. They then clench hard and poop a big steamy brown log onto the table. Each then proceed to dive into their own mushy effort with their little soft girly hands that have never worked a day in their lives and what they find during this rummage eventually becomes ads like Eircom.

    Theres an ad (I think its for insurance or something financial) its has people stretching on the side of a pool and then a bald lad jumps off a diving board and lands in the sea. Not only is it a brutal ad, the tune is absolutely awful.:eek:

    Yeah, I'm with you there! Such annoying, childish music. And it just repeats over and over in the background while some t055er talks about car insurance or loans, or clubcards. Desperate!

    That's hilarious, my entire flat hate that tune so much it gives us heart burn. It's actually gone so far as to reach in-joke status. The backing singers are worse, they sound like a bunch of Irish women who don't give a **** about what they're singing. Awful!!!

    Any of the ads which use classic old Funk or reggae tunes;
    such as that hair ad which uses the "here come the girls song"

    Reasoning; I god damn love those songs, and hearing them (a)whored for whatever product & (b) so constantly that I begin to hate them from hearing them so frequently.

    LEAVE THE GOOD MUSIC ALONE YOU B@STARDS!

    The one that goes?

    And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do
    'Cause her hair was bleached and teeth were too
    So I took her hand and I gave her a twirl
    And I lost my lunch to a Galway girl

    Yeah not much of a fan of it either. Might have believed it if it was written about a Mayo girl (disproportionate amount of good looking ladies from there imho), but I don't really buy into the lyrics as they are.

    It's worse when an ad takes a classic song as it ruins that song for me. It's even worse when they re-write the lyrics.

    Im planning on proposing a new law to the government which would allow for ad executives who do this to be anally raped with a sledgehammer.
