New Coke Ad (1985) 

How can you have a coke ad without Bobby Brown.. we all know he loves coke

It's a coincidence that Bobby did this when Whitney did Diet Coke ads.

That is favorite group From the 80s

Who else came here after watching The New Edition Story?

Thank you I was looking for this, by time new Coke came Water of March was out and Can’t beat the real thing was in. Really cool

I have to admit, i used to like this commercial... the song is based on "Waters Of March" by Tom Jobim, but they rewrote it for Coke: Yeah, Coke is it Come on, check it out now It's got a new taste It's a definite wow A great event It's hip, it's here A big smash hit It's a naked appeal It's the way that you feel When you know it's for real This new taste is a hit Coke is it, Coke is it

New Edition always bern my favorite group but nothing touches the 1993 coke ad featuring anew Horizon. That harmony those fellas showed was classic

i lol everytime that guitar randomly shows up with bobby brown. lol

i always loved there music i use too watch there videos just a cool cute group of talented young men i enjoy there music i wish them all well.

Thank u for posting the full commercial

New Coke, New Michael Jackson. Same results.

heell yeah i love the 80's even tho i wasnt born then music back then in my opionion was way better than todays music

good ol days

Mike and the rest made coke a cola look tasty

So Bobby Brown is drinking Coke instead of snorting it? Wild.

New Edition 🤩

" whyyy duz it hurt so bad...make me feel so sad, inside" lol

They used to play this commercial during SOLID GOLD AND SOUL TRAIN

"poison, poison, poison... if i were you id take precautions" they should use that line for colas.

0:07 Did anyone notice he put on a face just before smiling?

Classic...word up!

Wow..That was back in the day..classic.

Bobby Brown, Lord of Swag

The music is basically Antonio Carlos Jobim's "Aguas de Março"

They don't make commercials like this anymore

Aired during Soul Train and New York Hot Tracks

TO BE SO GOOD. THEY WAS GETTING SCREWED OUT OF THEIR MONEY.

@Nefus1988 New Coke was available in 1985 not the 70's...

WOW with Bobby??? I forgot about this one and I'm old as fuck!

Okay, so in Stranger Things 3, Lucas (Caleb McLaughlin) basically gives New Coke a shoutout and what you may not have known is that Caleb plays Ricky Bell (One of the members in New Edition) in the New Edition Story. So basically its genius marketing to reference so many things with a product

Oh. New Edition.

Too bad that they didn't do a commercial during the "Heartbreak" times.

0:06 is my life everyday.

Where might I procure some of this New Coke?

Was New Coke only available in US? Wish I was born in ealry 70s so I would be able to taste it.

COKE WAS DESPERATE BECAUSE MICHAEL JACKSON AND MAX HEADROOM HAD PEPSI LOOKING LIKE LIQUID GOLD.

@kjahmarley The Jingle in THIS commercial is NOT original, this is ripped off from Tom Jobim's "Waters of March. (A Brazilian MASTERPIECE of a song)

The biggest blunder of 1985

@10Tuxedo oh cool! that i looked it up it sounds awesome. i might learn it on guitar now, thanks for tellin me

hey look a Coke commercial for BET!

To me, it tasted like a flat Coke, one you'd left sitting out. Kind of tasted like the diet drink Tab.

Pepsi is a real man’s soda of 80s

'90s Surge soda rocks the shit out of New Coke

Jump and Shoot productions probably stole this money too.

Top

@FernieCanto oh my god you're right.

*high pitched voice 'the taste of teeday.'

Wow. That's fucked up! I bet they didn't even know that this song is Aguas De Marco by Jobim and Elis Regina.

@railgeek404 was wondering the name, but yeah I heard it =P they made it sound pretty cool though

did they blame new edition when it bombed?

Both quintets were managed by Maurice Starr.

Águas de Março

HOLY CRAP, that is "Waters of March". I thought they only used that in their Brazilian campaign. Shame that it sounds and looks so 80's that it's nauseating.

lol, 0:13 , dude looks like Jamie Foxx !!

I only had new coke once or twice ever when it came out. Did not like, switched to pepsi, and that was that.

I prefer Edition Classic over New Edition.

AN I the only person thats wants to know how the new coke actually tasted?

@yillow1 i still got a few sealed cans of it !,bet its just as nasty as it was back then!

why the dont make adds like this no moe so sad

@railgeek404 i caught that too

"é pau é pedra é o fim do caminho" - chupinharam a melodia.

New Edition during their heyday. The black "New Kids On The Block". Both those groups are Boston-based.

i think i remember this man the 80s are the best i tell ya i hate todays crap

THIS is why New Edition is over. lol

Yay lets appeal to 80s teens....

Bah-bay!

That's why pepsi is better ! even if i tastes like crap

me shiit

@jarjon76 U really shouldnt talk about things u know nothing about or people u dont know. Whatever that man (WHOM I DO KNOW) was going thru has NOTHING to do with u. U laugh & joke until its someone U CARE ABOUT or u urself. U never know what turn ur life will take & u wouldnt want someone judging U for the way u reacted. Theres nothing funny about drugs & people who use need help not criticism. Have a seat.

Great song jingle and video! But the new Coke was terrible!

Meh. The song should have been a parody of "I Want A New Drug" called "I Want A New Coke."

Real bad.

New Coke was a disaster.

The melody is a straight rip off of Jobim's 'Águas de Março'.

white girl!!!!!!

@jdw211 cry me a river.

gross

Bobby failed his family

I find it interesting that new coke was introduced the minute the original CEO that reigned over the company for fifty years decided to retire. Someone should look this up to see if the dates coincided with each other.

yes, coke is it booby
