  • Coke’s iconic "I'd Like to Buy the World a Coke" ad from 1971, called the "Hilltop" ad at the time, is recognized as one of the most beloved commercials in history. Earlier this year, the spot was color-corrected and remastered for 4K television. It will be housed in the Library of Congress. Get the full story here: CokeURL.com/rem...

    As much as I love Don Draper we have to remember the creator of the 1971 original ad, Bill Backer.

      the creator of matthew weiner said that everyones outcomes were pretty much set, and the only ones whod changed was roger (he was supposed to die at the end of season 1 from his heart attack) i wonder if the name itself Don Draper, was meant to be an homage to Bill Backer. and if that's so i wonder if the actress for stephanie horton was selected because of how much she looked like the girl with the raid hair who gets zoomed in on as she sings "it's the real thing"

      @@ZigSputnik £15? So you know already what this disk will cost? 😅 For a movie in general the length has influence on the price, so that can be much less in this case, and as it is good for Coca Cola it might even for free. But to answer your question; Even for £15 I might buy it, as it is in a great restored quality. Don’t forget it’s an iconic commercial and if you’ve got a Home Theatre and showing a 70’s movie, you can have a really great interval with it. It really helps building the atmosphere of the 70’s an besides that, many people spend much more buying Coca Cola signs to do the same, but less effective.

    I was 10 years old when this ad aired. It touched me as a child and now seeing it again (after watching Mad Men of course), it touches me now. It was the right message at the right time. The world and our country was ripping itself apart and this is the message of healing and unity. It was a fabulous ad with a great message. Not many like this nowadays.

    • @malamati007
      @malamati007 5 лет назад

      The "message" is that a sugary, carbonated drink is the one to purchase and enjoy, even as you idly think about a better world. You may have been tempted to think that it was an uplifting hymn for humanity, altruistically exhorting peace, love, and understanding--but look again, and carefully, and you will see a bottle of that sugary, carbonated drink in every hand, and the song's later verse focuses on "buying the world" a bottle of that, and keeping the world company as it drinks it down. The really germane comment on songwriters' perversion and prostitution of their craft is by Neil Young...if your art is given over to pitching commercial products, and substituting them for real engagement with life, then it's not really art at all, no matter how appealing it may seem to be on the surface.

    It makes the camera work look amateurish. part of the beauty of this commercial is alL the faces from around the world. A lot of that is lost when 1/3 of their faces are cropped OUT of the picture.
    You really ought to consider uploading it in the original 3 X 4 ratio, too. You can always put something on the side, I don't know, maybe the Coca-Cola logo?
    And yes, 16 mm at 480 p is adequate, but I can assure you, it can look better at even 720 or 1080p.

    The advert reminds me of attending the "Gathering of the Tribes" in 1972 with the same hope in mind. "I'd like to build the world a home And furnish it with love... I'd like to see the world for once All standing hand in hand
    And hear them echo through the hills For peace throughout the land" According to Bill Backer, the audience understood that Coca-Cola “could be a little social catalyst that can bring people together, talk things over, and sometimes communications get better if you’re just sitting over a bottle of Coke and looking people in the eye.”As others have said, it would be great to plan something of 50 years reunion [howbeit singing the original tune over webcams].

    In 1971, I was a teenager at 16 years old and a junior in high school. Back in those days, life was so simple and not complicated. To watch this fantastic commercial with this fantastic song drinking a nice cold bottle of Coke was heavenly. Now 50 years later, we're living in a world of violence and mistrust. The world is not simple anymore but is complicated. All we need is LOVE. What the world needs now is LOVE SWEET LOVE and why can't we be friends. What's going on?. We need more LOVE and respect in the world. Respect one another differences. Coca-Cola needs to play this commercial once again on national television and radio and over the internet. They should make more commercials like this one ,but have the people drink some of the nice cold bottle of Coke. If anything could bring people together again is great music, good food and a nice cold bottle of Coke. Coca-Cola should make another commercial around the 4th of July. Great commercial and song with great food and cold cans of Coke. YOU CAN'T BEAT THE FEELING because IT'S THE REAL THING.

      @@dougiejones5719agreed. I was reading that and thinking that the LGTBQ community were mostly closeted due to being a target of frequent abuse and judgement, civil rights issues were being violently fought for on the streets, you had the pushback for the Vietnam war and the segregation it caused in American citizens, between those who believed we should be fighting and were patriotic about it, and then those who protested in the streets and dodged the draft. I knew a draft dodger, being from Canada. It was well before my time (I’m an early 80’s baby), when it happened but it was a big deal. Women were oppressed too!
      If you watch Mad Men they are true to the time and how they felt about it all, and even forged ahead with an episode where Roger was in blackface during a garden party (albeit with a warning attached to the beginning explaining their reasons for displaying this act, in order to show the reality of the time and place)!! Women were treated like pieces of meat, African American people were not afforded the same opportunities (although the rest of the developed world believes that the USA is behind in tolerance and equality) and where you were economically and who you were connected with was important.

      +cat handler Film isn't restricted to any resolution, that's one of the things that makes it so great. Also, the video description says 4K. That's why I made this comment in the first place.

    • @aaronhinton92
      @aaronhinton92 8 лет назад +1

      +cat handler Not true. Yes, there's a finite amount of *detail* in film (and the smaller the film negative, the less amount of detail there is). But film itself does NOT have a finite resolution. This is the main reason why film studios keep old prints of their movies - so they can rescan them at higher resolutions as digital technology advances.
      But this petty argument has nothing to do with my original post---The video description says that it's a 4K video. However, it's only a 480p video. That's all I was saying with my initial post. :)

    Hast du etwas Zeit für mich
    Dann singe ich ein Lied für dich
    Von neunundneunzig Luftballons
    Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
    Denkst du vielleicht grad an mich
    Dann singe ich ein Lied für dich
    Von neunundneunzig Luftballons
    Und, dass so was von so was kommt
    Neunundneunzig Luftballons
    Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
    Hielt man für UFOs aus dem All
    Darum schickte ein General
    'Ne Fliegerstaffel hinterher
    Alarm zu geben, wenn's so wär
    Dabei waren dort am Horizont
    Nur neunundneunzig Luftballons
    Neunundneunzig Düsenflieger
    Jeder war ein großer Krieger
    Hielten sich für Captain Kirk
    Es gab ein großes Feuerwerk
    Die Nachbarn haben nichts gerafft
    Und fühlten sich gleich angemacht
    Dabei schoss man am Horizont
    Auf neunundneunzig Luftballons
    Neunundneunzig Kriegsminister
    Streichholz und Benzinkanister
    Hielten sich für schlaue Leute
    Witterten schon fette Beute
    Riefen Krieg und wollten Macht
    Mann, wer hätte das gedacht
    Dass es einmal soweit kommt
    Wegen neunundneunzig Luftballons
    Wegen neunundneunzig Luftballons
    Neunundneunzig Luftballons
    Neunundneunzig Jahre Krieg
    Ließen keinen Platz für Sieger
    Kriegsminister gibt's nicht mehr
    Und auch keine Düsenflieger
    Heute zieh' ich meine Runden
    Seh' die Welt in Trümmern liegen
    Hab 'n Luftballon gefunden
    Denk' an dich und lass' ihn fliegen

    Could consumer markers be the cause and the solution to cultural adversarialism and tensions within society currently?
    Holt (2012) suggests that strong brands develop and sustain ideologies or a cultural construct. For instance, Jack Daniel’s succeeded in this process through eliciting social associations with traditional values, plain spoken country folk and masculine self-reliant ideals.
    This approach is supported by Duncan (2018) who suggests that cultural branding consists of four main steps.
    These steps are
    1. Iconic brands must address contradictions in society
    2. perform identity myths that subscribe to society’s desires stimulated by these contradictions
    3. ensure that these identity myths are set in populist worlds;
    4. ensure the brand performs as a cultural activist.
    An example of cultural branding provided by Holt (2004) explains how Coca Cola in the 1970s sought to address the social desires and anxieties of the time that were associated with antidisestablishmentarianism, the Black Power movement, the Vietnam war and the civil rights movement.
    Coca Cola addressed this social tension with a song and video. The song was titled, ’I’d like to teach to the world to sing’. Coca Cola performed the cultural activist role in this instance by linking their brand with world peace and racial harmony.
