I change the station every time I hear that. It's such a terrible song to get stuck in your head. It could potentially ruin the rest of my day.

I hate the way the kid says "tuh day" instead of "today". Listen for it next time it's on.

Yeah, I heard that just now. This commercial still has a creepy "Hey little boy, why don't you come get some candy from my windowless van" vibe to it.

This is exactly what I think about when I hear this commercial. Sometimes after the kids sings his part I have been known to say outloud, "Alright, cue Old Creepy Guy" and yea, its a bad vibe.

Another thing: They spell "car" as "kar." First of all, it doesn't work on radio since any normal person would never think to spell "car" with a "k." It doesn't translate well if you want people to find your website, recognize print ads, etc.... In addition--why the gimmick spelling anyway? There is no justifiable reason for it.

Second, if this organization is really trying to help the "kids," don't you think they should be setting a better example by spelling "car" correctly?

hey hey leave the expos out of this... it's bad enough that in the world of b&b the expos are tied to this creep, but now pedophilia?! yeesh.

also i absolutely loathe this commercial once i hear the first note or two on the radio, either station, it's automatic PTFB for me. in fact, it's the most automatic PTFB that exists in my radio universe.

I always picture this guy when I hear the older man suddenly walking into the picture to sing with the boy.
