I know. So sick of these killjoys. Just because certain people abuse sugar doesn’t make them victims and it doesn’t make Coke bad. Personal accountability is in order.
notice in the original from 1971. no fat kids. there simply were not any fat kids in 1971. not where I lived 35 miles south of Los Angeles in 1971, I was in the 7th grade. there was not a single overweight kid in the entire school. we all exercised and rode bicycles to school. this was back in the days when there were no large parking lots at high schools to accommodate the fact that all kids drove cars to school. none did in 1971. it was absolutely a better time for kids obviously.

I think Coca-Cola needs to redo this commercial and display it on the airwaves. To remind people no matter who we are. Regardless of race and or gender we all want to spread love and respect.
ABSOLUTELY. Ignore those who'd love to erase soda pop from our world, they're the same mad dogmatic people who'd like to erase meat from our world. Most of them must have some problem with the way nature works, they're probably seriously repressed so they can't stand other people have the freedom to choose whatever they want to do in life. This so far from being moderate and healthy without the need to erase anything...
Ditto on the LOL. I was only 10-years old in 1971 and even at that young age I rolled my eyes at the "we're better than you" undertones of Coke's marketing.
Finally, 1701spacecadet, someone who sees through the sappy BS. It's just a f___ing commercial, that's it. It's a corporation tapping into the hipness of peace and love at the time. Cringe on that.

I see this diversity as people of different colors living peacefully in the world. Not necessarily living together in one country. Now that I’m thinking about it, immigration is not really the best solution to improve people’s lives. Instead of bringing them over here in the US, would it be better if we help other countries be more successful so they don’t have to leave their home. After all, there is no place like home, and home will always be where our heart is.
And all the US Citizens that Emigrate, does your comment mean their emigration; it's not the "best solution" for the destination countries of those emigrating, would you like to curtail or stop that, too: What about their Hearts, as regards their Home? Are the US Citizens, Foreign Policies and International Development Programmes just so good that it really doesn't matter what US Emigres, Orgs or it's Military do, because: apparently, they'll be unable to do anything other than "help other countries be more successful so they don’t have to leave their home..." ? Are those large numbers of Immigrants who are currently residing in the US, from countries that don't need "help" ie; Russia, UK, Poland, Germany and Canada not representative of diversity because they are all the same colour - should they not Immigrate to the US, due to having different languages and cultures, even though they have the same colour, or does having the same colour make it OK for them, with you? If "Immigration is not the best solution to improve people's lives", what on Earth, and Across The High Seas, were those who sailed in The Mayflower thinking... or those that escaped the Potato Famine in Ireland.. and the Religiously Persecuted and Economically deprived of Mainland Europe... or they who fled Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, Communist China and Russia... or the wars in Vietnam, Cambodia and Korea... Or The Ayatollah's Iran... or the dictators of Kuwait, Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria... or Sierra Leone, Nigeria and Liberia... or Rwanda, Serbia and Ukraine... Not to mention the countries who were suffering the ruination wreaked by (Euro & US) Capitalism and Colonialism ? WWI & WWII were primarily initiated and fought between people of the same colour, weren't they...? And what of the many Civil Wars between people of the same colour, from Europe, to Africa, to the Middle East; what happened to their peacefully living together? As of June 2016, the State department's consular section estimated that there are 9 million non-military U.S. citizens living abroad,[3][4] an increase from the 4 million estimated in 1999.[5] However, these numbers are often disputed as being underestimated en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emigration_from_the_United_States I realise it may be very difficult for you to see beyond isolation and nationalism because you may've suffered as a result of Immigration or have been taught to value separatism above integration, or both, which i understand is just part of reality. Sadly with Immigration as with all matters their will come those who abuse it and those who are 'just plain bad' - i get that! And you do not have to change your thinking either, of course, neither does anyone have the right to compel you to do so : i would encourage you to look into more solutions, though, because i think your proposal is divisive, shortsighted, unrealistic and contrary to all that is good about Humankind.

I love the Coca-Cola (aka Coke) "Hilltop" commercial and its most famous jingle, "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony)/ I'd Like to Buy the World a Coke", which became a popular pop song performed by The Hillside Singers and The New Seekers simultaneously. The original aired in 1971, 4 years before I was born, but I watched it in TV specials in the late 1990s. I love every version, even Coca-Cola Classic's (Coke Classic) "Hilltop Reunion" (1990) and Coca-Cola Zero's (aka Coke Zero) "Rooftop" with G. Love's "Everybody Chill" (2005), except the final one (2015), because of a sad reality. I even love the 2002 spoof made by one of Coca-Cola's competitiors, 7Up. Takes me back to my toddler years.
I enjoyed this video right up till 3:53. Didn't expect to get bombarded with a Pity Party Preachy Parody Tune! Seriously? What you put in your mouth is on you. The soda DOESN'T force it's way in there. 🙄🙄🙄
Good Lord, how MUCH Coke do you have to drink to become obese and diabetic? I've enjoyed Coke all of my life....in moderation....and I am not obese or diabetic. And, I can't imagine drinking a Rum and "diet" coke. Make choices like me. Live Long and Prosper.
It is all genetics, hormones, and things like that. Which is why it is so arrogant when people judge and put down people who do gain weight more easily just because they are fat. Being fat is not always due to unbridled, constant gluttony like the arrogant people want to believe. I have seen some people eat and drink in gluttony all the time and not gain much weight if any and I have seen people drink sodas and overeat just occasionally and gain easily and have a hard time taking it off. People think they have a right to judge obese people because they think it all comes down to an issue with self control. It is a stereotype and there are plenty of thinner people with self control issues.
Only remembered the original first one 49 years ago in 1971 of which fell in love with, buying the New Seekers single, and getting the Coke ad single as well, as a friend at that time was a projectionist at a cinema - good old days was the 1970’s 👍.
I remember Vietnam, violent protests, oil shortages, a disgraced president, hyperinflation, and a general atmosphere of malaise. You can keep that lousy decade. I’ll take the 80s or 90s .
I remember these commercials from when I was a kid. But I love the message at the end even more. Coke might be good at making these commercials but their product is garbage and horrible for the human body
Well, just like then, it takes people refusing to engage and insisting on coming together to make it happen. That’s what they did in the 70’s. Plenty of bad things were going down, that’s what inspired the commercial. They really ought to re-run the original.

Let us be THANKFUL to God that we are ALIVE whatever ERA we are born... for many were aborted, and some were killed like animals... Facts and Truth of the Matters.
I saw the commercial in the apartment of my friend before it aired on TV (but I don't remember many details about it). He invited a group of us to watch it and comment on it to add to his review.
I take this to mean Coke is admitting that their product contains small amounts of unrefined cocaine. Don Draper was a sly genius to sell it and tell it like it is. It's the real thing, indeed.
They didn't. There is still coca leaves in Coca-cola. And coca leaves are cocaine, before the alkaloids are synthesized to create it. We do have a lot of fun drinking Coke. That's why everyone loves it so much...
50 years later this commercial is more relevant than 1971 and by the way did you know the black guy in the 1st commercial is Rodney Allen Rippey's brother
Teach the World To Chill is by far the dumbest version, with the least talent of anything ever produced for any product. But the obesity commerical is ignorance on parade. Coca Cola didn't pour the soda in their mouth. They're fat because they have no control. I'm fat, and I know my problem is mine, not a manufacturer. Own up. Say, I'm fat and it's my fault.
I loved that commercial growing up. But that last spot blaming coke for all of the bad stuff? Horrible. My dad never drank coke. As a matter of fact, in our family, we drank milk at supper time, lunch and breakfast. The rest of the day we drank water. Once in a blue moon, my dad would set things up to show home movies and we would have popcorn and ONE cup of Pepsi. Gues what. My dad got diabetes and my mom got false teeth.Not Cokes fault.
Fun video until that stupid preachy crap at the end. I am 50, and I have drank Coca Cola all my life, probably 3 or so a day. I am not overweight, I do not have diabetes, and I have not lost my teeth. Those diseases are about heredity and lifestyle, not about drinking Cokes.
Will everyone calm the fuck down..it is about a commercial in the early 70's, if you do not like it, don;t watch it, if you don't like Coke, then don't drink it, but for the love of fucking god, do not start preaching your anti coke, anti sugar bullshit....
For years we have had Tab, and later diet coke/coke zero. It's all about balance!! Blame sweets, cakes, desserts...the list goes on! But nobody was forced to eat/drink the sugar!!
2:50 That was really an awfull rendition, but the ending 3:50 was unexpected, no one is forcing anyone to drink gallons and gallons of sweet beverages. Why ruining things like that?
I was just little boy when I heard this song for the first time brings back memories when my parents were alive how I miss my parents I am an old man now I still miss the times that I was a boy
For a short time coke came out with a Splenda version. I liked that. Not too long ago I saw and spoke to a coke man stocking the shelves at the grocery store. He told me they stopped making it.
Why did Coke ruin a lot of Humanity with their Delightful Jingle promoting their Coke Brew sugary drink which has been linked to Type 2 diabetes coupled with an increase of pancreatic cancer?
I well remember the first two songs. Especially the Christmas one. Christmas commercials back in the 60s, 70s, 80s and part of the 90s was really great. It was very nice to sing about world peace (I enjoyed it) but true peace only comes from a relationship with Jesus Christ after repentance. HE will bring peace one day.
Great walk down memory lane, i miss those commercials & i miss the first Coca Colas before the started changing it. This wold have been so much nicer if some people hadn't decided to sing the Christmas greeting with negativity and the kind of reality we have everyday. At least they could have left Christmas with peace, love & innocence. Thank you people who refuse to let some memories remain and live on without degrading & slinging your foul mud on them. Did that add an iota of good to that beautiful & gone but not forgotten memory most hoped to see. I hope it will make you live a few minutes longer in you unhappy, love less world.

Good Lord, how MUCH Coke do you have to drink to become obese and diabetic? I've enjoyed Coke all of my life....in moderation....and I am not obese or diabetic. And, I can't imagine drinking a Rum and "diet" coke. Make choices like me. Live Long and Prosper.

Wow, aren't you superior to the human race. You must be special.
It is all genetics, hormones, and things like that. Which is why it is so arrogant when people judge and put down people who do gain weight more easily just because they are fat. Being fat is not always due to unbridled, constant gluttony like the arrogant people want to believe. I have seen some people eat and drink in gluttony all the time and not gain much weight if any and I have seen people drink sodas and overeat just occasionally and gain easily and have a hard time taking it off. People think they have a right to judge obese people because they think it all comes down to an issue with self control. It is a stereotype and there are plenty of thinner people with self control issues.
People are addicted to the sugar and the caffeine. There really doesn't need to be as much sugar in it. Could be halved.
OMG childhood memories ! I remember this commercial when I was a child in Pakistan being shown on TV .
I was feeling so nostalgic, 'til that last song! 😅😅😅
Only remembered the original first one 49 years ago in 1971 of which fell in love with, buying the New Seekers single, and getting the Coke ad single as well, as a friend at that time was a projectionist at a cinema - good old days was the 1970’s 👍.
I remember Vietnam, violent protests, oil shortages, a disgraced president, hyperinflation, and a general atmosphere of malaise. You can keep that lousy decade. I’ll take the 80s or 90s
.
@@electrictroy2010 Best regards. I’ll take the 80’s and 90’s also.
I remember these commercials from when I was a kid. But I love the message at the end even more. Coke might be good at making these commercials but their product is garbage and horrible for the human body
70'S was the sweetest years nothing like today heartbreaking to see
Well, just like then, it takes people refusing to engage and insisting on coming together to make it happen. That’s what they did in the 70’s. Plenty of bad things were going down, that’s what inspired the commercial. They really ought to re-run the original.

Let us be THANKFUL to God that we are ALIVE whatever ERA we are born... for many were aborted, and some were killed like animals... Facts and Truth of the Matters.
Beautiful (except for the HORRIBLE hip-hop version)!!
That was indeed, terrible!
What about the horrible song at the end. That is the only version I object to. The first is my favorite since it is the one I grew up with.
I use to stand up when I was 5 and sang that song my dad and the neighbor couldn't believe it lol and Now I sing today years of practice absolutely 😂😆
Datsa nice Italian commercial ! I am going to buy some for the Ice Box .
1:27 version I remember the most from CBS
I saw the commercial in the apartment of my friend before it aired on TV (but I don't remember many details about it). He invited a group of us to watch it and comment on it to add to his review.
Just the people there at that point in history gave you hope it was so moving and representative of the people of our World
Can't find it now but they had some people sing a spoof version of the song. They were all fighting cancer and clearly blamed coke.
Maybe write a song about providing the world with a drink of clean water.
USA could start with Flint, Michigan.
Nice to see that the song has completely evolved into something negative.
I take this to mean Coke is admitting that their product contains small amounts of unrefined cocaine. Don Draper was a sly genius to sell it and tell it like it is.
It's the real thing, indeed.
they took that out LONG ago.We would have had alot more fun drinking coke .lol.
They didn't. There is still coca leaves in Coca-cola. And coca leaves are cocaine, before the alkaloids are synthesized to create it.
We do have a lot of fun drinking Coke. That's why everyone loves it so much...
50 years later this commercial is more relevant than 1971 and by the way did you know the black guy in the 1st commercial is Rodney Allen Rippey's brother
It was!?
@@Emily-cw7tj Rodney Allen Rippey is a friend of mine and my business partner
@@davidshareefChTPhD ah ok
Teach the World To Chill is by far the dumbest version, with the least talent of anything ever produced for any product. But the obesity commerical is ignorance on parade. Coca Cola didn't pour the soda in their mouth. They're fat because they have no control. I'm fat, and I know my problem is mine, not a manufacturer. Own up. Say, I'm fat and it's my fault.
Lmao at the ending, if you're weak enough to be persuaded by advertising to destroy your body thats your problem.
I loved that commercial growing up. But that last spot blaming coke for all of the bad stuff? Horrible. My dad never drank coke. As a matter of fact, in our family, we drank milk at supper time, lunch and breakfast. The rest of the day we drank water. Once in a blue moon, my dad would set things up to show home movies and we would have popcorn and ONE cup of Pepsi. Gues what. My dad got diabetes and my mom got false teeth.Not Cokes fault.
Fun video until that stupid preachy crap at the end. I am 50, and I have drank Coca Cola all my life, probably 3 or so a day. I am not overweight, I do not have diabetes, and I have not lost my teeth. Those diseases are about heredity and lifestyle, not about drinking Cokes.
Will everyone calm the fuck down..it is about a commercial in the early 70's, if you do not like it, don;t watch it, if you don't like Coke, then don't drink it, but for the love of fucking god, do not start preaching your anti coke, anti sugar bullshit....
Oh god, that weird alt/indie/rap version was dumb.
Ojala todos los lideres del mundo canten esa hermosa cancion de amor y paz gracias me trae recuerdo de mi niñez
For years we have had Tab, and later diet coke/coke zero. It's all about balance!! Blame sweets, cakes, desserts...the list goes on! But nobody was forced to eat/drink the sugar!!
Thank you!
2:50 That was really an awfull rendition, but the ending 3:50 was unexpected, no one is forcing anyone to drink gallons and gallons of sweet beverages. Why ruining things like that?
Sigh. When liberals were fun and pleasant.
I was just little boy when I heard this song for the first time brings back memories when my parents were alive how I miss my parents I am an old man now I still miss the times that I was a boy
The BEST COMMERCIAL OF COCA-COLA... can't beat the REAL THING!...
😂
The last minutes have me rolling on the floor! Too funny, we all got old!
Getting old is one thing. Purposely destroying your body with bad drinks is something else
I need that ad lmfao I am gonna troll people with it
My thought was , what did I just find ? I loved it masterful addition to this corny song ...lol.
The first woke advert?
This was the best commercial back in the 71 Coca-Cola preached Harmony and love to the world now they preach hate shame on you Coca-Cola
why does this give me Jonestown vibes?
For a short time coke came out with a Splenda version. I liked that. Not too long ago I saw and spoke to a coke man stocking the shelves at the grocery store. He told me they stopped making it.
It was with a green label.
Yes. I loved the stevia coke! So good but they quit making it!!!
Mad Men brought me here
Today Communista De Coca Cola
Don Drapers masterpiece
❤❤❤ hermosa melodia
😭i miss those years
too much of anything is not good. I gonna guess sugery pop is not the only thing that gave them diabetes.
This is terrifying.
Why did Coke ruin a lot of Humanity with their Delightful Jingle promoting their Coke Brew sugary drink which has been linked to Type 2 diabetes coupled with an increase of pancreatic cancer?
What if the world doesn't want to drink coke :) The world knows how to sing too btw, no need to teach us anything.
Hahahahaha
I thought for SURE you were going to put Shakermaker by Oasis in this video.
Quite appalled by the last version 😕
I remember hearing kids playing this in band in LA Grande, Oregon & I think my boyfriend/ husband was in band & stage band back then.
For one brief shining moment a major corporation had a soul. Love the original song despite the commercialism
i miss this song and ad so much, when i was small.. if i heard this song from tv, that's mean christmas is here
I still drink Coke once a year, at Christmas.
To Mr.Alex thank you for giving me a beautiful memory❤.
You have to walk. Run. Exercise, and then you Can drink. Soda. Lala. Lalalsla
I love the first videos of Coke Cola because you have all nations singing 🤗🙂☺️😊
thanks don draper
Its funny...i got pissed for youtube making me watch an ad while i sat & waited to watch an ad 🤔
...crazy 🤷♂️
Que bonito,hoy simplemente,no se siente ese espíritu navideño de antaño .14/12/2023.
I well remember the first two songs. Especially the Christmas one. Christmas commercials back in the 60s, 70s, 80s and part of the 90s was really great. It was very nice to sing about world peace (I enjoyed it) but true peace only comes from a relationship with Jesus Christ after repentance. HE will bring peace one day.
Always coca cola was a great company!. Now in my 60's free sugar coke is one of my friends. Everything goes better with a coke!
Great walk down memory lane, i miss those commercials & i miss the first Coca Colas before the started changing it. This wold have been so much nicer if some people hadn't decided to sing the Christmas greeting with negativity and the kind of reality we have everyday. At least they could have left Christmas with peace, love & innocence. Thank you people who refuse to let some memories remain and live on without degrading & slinging your foul mud on them. Did that add an iota of good to that beautiful & gone but not forgotten memory most hoped to see. I hope it will make you live a few minutes longer in you unhappy, love less world.
I love this song. If I die in my sleep from my Diabetes, I still want people to know that my last thoughts were for world peace. Thanks!
EL 21 DE DICIEMBRE DE 1971, MI PADRE LLEGÓ A CASA CON UNA TELEVISIÓN EN BLANCO Y NEGRO DE CUATRO PATAS MARCA "ADMIRAL". LO PRIMERO QUE VÍ, FUE ÉSTE COMERCIAL. ¿QUÉ SON 50 AÑOS?
