You might have caught YouTube TV’s latest commercial if you’re watching any of the sports that are going on right now. In the ad, problems are presented and YouTube has the solution… allegedly. Take a look then scroll down for the music and more.
The Music. The song is this commercial comes from a band called Eric Burton & The Animals. Here’s the full track of “Good Times” released in 1967.
The Big Mistake. My only critique of the ad is that it doesn’t really offer a good solution to the problems we face with live sports. They present 4 scenarios in which the sports enthusiast misses important moments because of tall people in the way, an obstructed view, someone changes the channel, and a friend knocks the power cord out of the wall. How exactly does showing 4 games on screen at once solve any of the problems previously mentioned? Answer: It doesn’t.
Judges give this ad a 2 out of 10 stars and it would be 0/10 except at least they put some thought into the song choice.
