Drippy female/male singing in adverts

[Allthenameshavegone1972]

This trend has been going for a few years now. Drippy singing accompanied by acoustic guitar or piano, singing cover versions of big hits in adverts really make my ears bleed! They sound awful & are so depressing. If there's any advertising execs out there bring adverts like the old Cadurys adverts, Tetley teabag men, something a bit jollier & easier on the ears!
If anything is guaranteed for me to mute the tv instead of take notice of the advert it's this. These adverts are the work of the devil..

A bit off-point, but why would she need to buy him a jacket on Amazon anyway when the theatre's wardrobe department probably has at least one knocking about?

The one I think is the most ridiculous is the one with the slow version of No Limit. The fast version was a terrible song the first time round so who decided we needed a crappy slow version??

The quality of that which passes as ‘singer/songwriter’ these days is shocking.
I’m genuinely puzzled when people can’t ‘hear’ the uninteresting mind and absence of personality behind the voice.

In the age of the internet, I think many people have fooled themselves that, hey, they too can ‘be a musician’, when all they’ll ever be is lightweight sh*te.

I want to campaign to bring back Douglas the Lurpak man. Him sneakily playing his trumpet was brilliant!

You realise you've now made loads of people add Hamilton (or anything else with that bloke in) to their "what not to go to see" list. So it has damaged him.

Not all bad! I have been enjoying the Specsavers punning ads and the AA one is hilariuos with bank robbers car in trouble. The rear of the Hourse! I wanted a divhorse! I cant see you anymore. Really funny unlike most comedy shows.

And I'll no longer have to listen to that Christmas ad with the Verve singing, "Yes, there's love if you wonnit, don't sound like a sonnet," which got me clenched every time I heard it. I left the room when I could.

I've noticed the Traitors tv show is absolutely rife with it, every song is a weird, slow cover warbled along

Better still get rid of em all ! Hate hate hate the booking.com one and turn the radio off when the Wilson's carpet one comes airs , the one with the woman cackling throughout.!!

Also, (showing my age here) how baffling is the choice of OMD's Enola Gay for the Vitality health insurance ad? Sure, dropping nuclear bombs is exactly the concept you want to associate with protecting your health!?!?
