Ikea's First Music Video-Style Ad "Playin' With My Friends"

Ikea just launched its first music video-style commercials in the UK, and the adverts look great. The first, released to day is "Playin' With My Friends", Ikea says the ad is about bringing people together the party season and they do a good job of it.

Peter Wright, marketing manager for UK and Ireland at Ikea, said he plans to completely "transform and revitalize" the brand in the UK with its latest ads taking on the form of "music videos". He went on to say, "[Ikea is] moving from talking about products to talking about activities in the home. It's actually going to be done in the style of music videos. They're all up and coming artists so there will be a series of up and coming re-recording of tracks."

We'll be looking forward to seeing more this campaign, full credits and song/music artist to come.

See the behind scenes making of the advert HERE and meet Darren The Bear.

Updated: The music is a remake of the song "Playing With My Friends" by BB King and Robert Cray.

Lyrics:
Hungry kids in the crib ma
Pocket like it's hot
Pocket like it's hot
Pocket like it's hot
When the craving's got a hold of you
Pocket like it's hot
Pocket like it's hot
Pocket like it's hot
And yo munchies get a attitude
Pocket like it's hot
Pocket like it's hot
Pocket like it's hot
I've got the pockets in my arms
Settin' off smoke alarms
And I eat 'em smokin hot
'Cause I got it going on
-
I'm a hot dude, with some hot dreams
Getting fired up, letting off steam
Everybody showing love -- Herbie's in da tub
Checkin' applications for the Hot Pockets fan club
Pepperoni pizza, much better than some fish eggs
The interior too hot let it cool off for a few secs
I'm running for the taste, that can be my phys ed
Chompin Hot Pockets, that's how you get ahizzead
Winners get the meaty meats,
Winners get da cheesy eats
The tag-team meal that's too hot for TV
Get off my pockets, you gotta backup
Yup that's whatssup, now sign the prenups
Me and Hot Pockets never gonna splitup
You should think about it.....take a second.
-
I bring the heat, but y'all knew that
Da Big Sauce Boss, yeah, I had to do that
I keep it fired up, even when I'm inside
You take what's mine, then ya gonna have to run 'n hide
He light 'em up so much that everybody talks
They all wanna turn in his Hot Pockets Box
Two, one, yep, three these Pockets are H O double T
Smokey temps hitting that three thirty three
If you can't stand it this hot
Then you can't chill with me
So bring your friends, we going on a wild ride
Herb Sauce tender meats heat yo insides
So don't change the dizzle, turn it up a lizzle
Got some cheesy drizzle dripping on my shizzle
Waiting on the brizzle's, the pizzle, the dizzle Gs, when da cheese hits your tongue it'll scream "Fo Sizzle"
-
Hungry kids in the crib ma
Pocket like it's hot
Pocket like it's hot
Pocket like it's hot
When the craving's got a hold of you
Pocket like it's hot
Pocket like it's hot
Pocket like it's hot
And yo munchies get a attitude
Pocket like it's hot
Pocket like it's hot
Pocket like it's hot
I've got the pockets in my arms
Settin' off smoke alarms
And I eat 'em smokin hot
'Cause I got it going on

Coca-Cola | Move to the Beat of the London 2012 Olympic Torch Relay

To celebrate the London 2012 Olympic Torch Relay and your Future Flames, Coca-Cola brought the UK's hottest music artists to 66 nights of celebration around the UK.

Take a look back at the most memorable moments of the relay, as we follow the Olympic Flame on its journey from Land's End, all around the country and back to London in preparation of the Finale in Hyde Park and the start of the London 2012 Olympic Games. Featuring Dizzee Rascal, Eliza Doolittle, Friendly Fires, The Wanted, You Me At Six, Emeli Sandé, Labrinth, Rizzle Kicks, The Wombats and Wretch 32. via: YouTube

Also celebrating this Olympics Coca-Cola recently unveiled the "BeatBox" building, designed by architects Asif Khan and Pernilla Ohrstedt which will promote Coke's "Move To The Beat" ad campaign. The building was built with 230 bolsters that respond to touch with sound, the structure becomes one giant instrument.

Mark Ronson's "Move to the Beat" anthem -- which has sounds like the squeaking of sports shoes, heartbeats, or an arrow striking a target -- is the centerpiece of the building: visitors that touch the structure at different parts will essentially be remixing the track. Visitors can also climb up the exterior, and upon reaching the roof, will see the view of Olympic Park. Within the structure are different light and sound installations as well, designed by Jason Bruges Studio in Hackney. via: creativity-online
