I was a bit younger than you but I hear ya! We were invincible, the world was ours and everything was right in the world...it’s almost as if this is a movie, it’s so out of the “normal”, stay safe
In the 1980s ads focused on food, candy, soda or beauty products with a few headache or cold remedies occasionally thrown in. Nowadays a majority of the commercials focus on how sick you are, just like how sick society is now. If anyone builds a time machine to go back to the 80s and wouldn’t mind a passenger, I’m ready to go!
Wow 1986 vintage now, That's crazy to me. LOL Time flies. We should be able to live longer or get a do over because I've just figured out the meaning of life.
I was sixteen years old at the time and obsessed with Miami Vice and Don Johnson. Elizabeth Taylor was beautiful. Always loved the Bob Hope specials growing up. The eighties really was this cool.
That's George Newbern in the rugby shirt for the Twix commercial. He was in a lot of movies but I liked him best as Danny in Friends. He was the new guy in the apartment building that Rachel and Monica fogged in the dark basement because they thought he was a serial killer.
In 1986 I was in grade 2. I was visiting my Grandfather in White Rock for the summer and we were going to go to Expo 86. But my mom forced my dad to bring me and my sister home so she could have her visitation weekend instead...She kept us for 2 hours then drove us home. :(
We moved to Germany in 1988, and as AFN does not have commercials and I was really young at the time, these were among the last 80s commercials that I remember. Interesting blast from the past!
@@75aces97 Jake Holmes is fascinating guy. Before becoming a super successful jingle singer, he was a 60s folk/rock singer in Greenwich Village who wrote a tune called "Dazed and Confused." Led Zeppelin ripped off his song and came out with their own "Dazed and Confused."
@@brentmann2988 Wow, that was him? I'd remembered reading about Dazed, but forgot the details. Jimmy Page has been involved in so much musical malfeasance that I forgot whom all he ripped off, or was accused of ripping off. Anyway, I believe this Holmes fellow sang (and wrote?) Jingles for Reese's Pieces and Sure deodorant ("Raise your hand if you're Sure"). I looked him up and he wrote/performed "I'm a Pepper." This guy was all over 1980s TV and I didn't even know it.
@@75aces97 "musical malfeasance" is the perfect way to describe some of Jimmy Page's antics. Yes, "raise your hand if you're sure" is one of Jake Holmes's best jingles. Here is a link to him singing live, where you can really hear the distinctive voice that was in all of his commercial work: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eLslfqu0DGw.html
I remember my 1st pair of Jordache jeans. Those things were not made for curvy women...lol. but I csn say I had a pair of Jordache jeans I was considered a cool kid with those jeans..😂😂😂.
I was a wittle kid back in '86. But I do remember my mother watching Its A Living and my grandmother and I would watch Highway to Heaven. I was 4 in '86 and just turned 27 in July of this year 😁...lol
Thanks for uploading im from Pittsburgh and im i big tales from the darkside fan nice to see the original commercials did you see the jason alexander commercial?
My birth year. Also, anyone else see the thumbnail and think of Lady Dimitrescu? Haven't even played that game, but the internet is crazy for her lol. Definitely shows how different the world is today.
I was on my last West Pack on board the U.S. ENTERPRISE CVN-65, Sargent with the Marine Detachment and unknown to me my wife was sending me care packages that were poisoned. Great memories, she's dead now thank God. The commercials were ok.🤣🤣🤣🤣👍❤🇺🇸
Just looking at a woman without her permission is sexual harrasment, unless she's obese which in that case if you dont look at her you're fat phobic. Either way you're bad!
I found the first Hater! Does it upset you to read how people loved the 1980s? How sad for you that people would rather go back or just live in the 80s rather than live in the insane zoo of today.
