I’ve never actually had a Tango before, but after watching this clip you can be sure that I’ll try one next time I’m overseas…that is, if it’s still around by the time I get there. The UK soda brand just launched this campaign in an effort to “Save Tango.” Apparently it’s under threat by smoothie and gourmet coffee companies. They’ve even put up a microsite for the campaign over at www.savetango.co.uk.
Created by BBH London for the orange soft-drink brand, this embodies everything that I love about British humor - spontaneous bad dancing, sex puns and a blatant disregard for child labor laws.
Funny as hell if you ask me.
Richard McGrann and Andy Clough were the agency creatives behind this spot with Ben Gregor as the Director from Knucklehead.
Here’s a great new piece of work for Adidas from TBWA\London that shows us a man who has a very unique job - He runs the ‘No Sad Big Smile’ Break Up Service. What a great idea! How many times have you been at the end of a relationship but ended up staying in it for a little while longer solely because you didn’t want to have to deal with the actual act of breaking up and all that goes with it (i.e. the screaming, crying, yelling and occasional violent outburst).
Clever commercial that left me smiling by the end of it….and yes, in the third break-up, it does look like the woman was throwing her pink vibrator at our hero (it’s during the “Anger” stage).
The spot was to promote the new adidas Originals Safety Collection. They’ve also built out a cool micro-site for the campaign that can be seen at www.NoSadBigSmile.com. The website has various interactive features, including a contest that could win you a trip for two to Tokyo. There’s also a better quality version of the song that plays in the spot on the site, which was pretty cool of them (too bad they didn’t list the artist/song in the reel credits).
Speaking of the music that plays in this commercial, did you like it? The song is called Perro Amor Explota by Argentinean band Bersuit Vergarabat. Their whole album is great, but this song in particular can be found on the Amores Perros Soundtrack.
Mat Fox and Mark Nicholson were the creatives from TBWA\London who came up with this commercial along with Tamara Kennon who was their Agency Producer. Kosai Sekine was the Director with Jeremy Smith as the Producer from Blink, London.

Lebron: Now see what they smell like… they smell good? Nicole: Ohhhhh they smell good.
