View Full Version : Cheers theme in UPS commercial TJ 09-03-2002, 11:45 PM Anybody see this one? Janice 09-03-2002, 11:52 PM Originally posted by TJ Anybody see this one? I haven't seen it here in Boston, and I watch a lot of TV. Perhaps it's not a national ad campaign. I'd love to see it. TJ 09-04-2002, 12:27 AM I saw it on ESPN during SportsCenter, I guess we will see if other people have seen it yet. It may be brand new. Brian Damage 09-04-2002, 03:11 PM I have not seen it yet, but now that I know it's out there, I'll keep an eye out for it. Is it just the music or are there lyrics as well? Cheers Fanatic 09-04-2002, 05:11 PM I saw it! I'm here in the little state of RI.........so if it's here, it's gotta be spreading. I was doing my extensive homework, when I heard the theme song. I jumped up as fast as I could to watch it. Oh, briandamage, it does have the lyrics. CheersGang3 09-04-2002, 05:37 PM Not fair I wanna see it Lol Why would the ups camecial need to use their theme? FOLN@NFan 09-04-2002, 09:53 PM i was channel flipping and saw the very end of this! i just heard the end of the melody then the VO saying "Ups...where everyone knows your name" or something im like recording every channel all the time now for it lol Doug http://www.freewebs.com/wekyn Brian Damage 09-05-2002, 02:11 PM If it's a UPS commercial, it has to be national. It's not like it's for the New England Postal service or something like that. Janice 09-05-2002, 03:17 PM Originally posted by briandamage If it's a UPS commercial, it has to be national. It's not like it's for the New England Postal service or something like that. Lots of national products, such as McDonalds etc run different commercials in different parts of the country. I haven't seen the UPS ad in Boston, but I'm keeping my eyes out for it. :eek: :) Janice 09-06-2002, 09:45 PM I saw the ad. It's pretty cool--different singers. They must have paid a bundle for the rights to the song. FOLN@NFan 09-06-2002, 11:51 PM what all do they sing? cuz i still havent seen the whole thing Janice 09-07-2002, 12:02 PM Originally posted by FOLN@NFan what all do they sing? cuz i still havent seen the whole thing I only saw it once and not from the beginning, but I think just the chorus is sung ~Sometimes you wanna go where everybody knows your name, and they're always glad you came~ It shows UPS drivers delivering packages to smiling satisfied customers. The idea being I guess that customers bond with the UPS guys, which isn't the case where I live. I have deliveries all the time--love that online shopping--and I rarely get the same guy twice. In the business world though, it's common for drivers to have the same route. Frasier W. Crane 09-08-2002, 06:03 PM I saw it this morning. Its cool...I wonder if they made this for the cheers aniversery...why did they choose this song? -*Forever*- 09-08-2002, 09:40 PM I saw it!! When my dad was watching the SU game. I was writing something and I heard the music, I was like 'Cheers!!!' LOL Brian Damage 09-09-2002, 01:31 PM Yipee! I finally saw the commercial during the football game on Sunday here in New York. Central Perk 09-13-2002, 07:43 PM I caught the tail end of it where I just heard the music and I didn't really see a picture or anything, I guess I shouldn't channel surf so much....:jar: AdiTheGame 09-14-2002, 08:35 PM I heard it and I thought I was going crazy until I saw the tv set. FOLN@NFan 09-16-2002, 09:31 PM i finally saw the whole thing finally. it has the beginning notes, then kinda like a short theme (but not) it goes right into the refrain. (sometimes u wanna go...) it has one guy delivering a package and the lady says "nice haircut." or something. then they UPS guy says "do u think its too short?" (isnt that a woody line??). then it goes straight from "and theyre always glad u came. u wanna be where everybody knows your name." then it plays the ending i dunno...it almost sounds like Gary Portnoy(the original guy who sang it), then it doesnt. i really only thought it sounded like him during the 2 lines (where everybody knows your name/and theyre always glad you came), where they sang the harmony too. i still havent recorded it yet! lol Doug http://www.freewebs.com/wekyn DansonQueen 09-17-2002, 03:29 PM I was golfing with my gym class the other day and saw the commercial in the lounge. I started freaking out and everyone was like "What" and I just kept pointing. I was a little iappointed though, I thought it was a commercial for Cheers, but needless to say, it made my day :) Brian Damage 09-17-2002, 04:38 PM Not to get off topic, but I like your screen name DansonQueen. It's very catchy in an ABBA sort of way.:lol: DansonQueen 09-17-2002, 10:55 PM LOL thanks, thats exactly what I was going for :) :cheers: :guitar: Sammy M. Malone 09-22-2002, 07:34 PM i finally saw it right now! while watching the emmy countdown Michele35 09-29-2002, 08:17 PM I've seen it a few times...it is a bit hokey. Did anyone notice that one of the actors in the commercial looks alot like Woody? |
