I saw this commercial a while ago and have been meaning to post it once I found a video clip. It’s for Extra Supermint chewing gum, but given this ad they might as well go ahead and call it Chewphoria:
Love it. The guy has all the right moves … until he walks through the metal detector. OK, fine, it’s adorkable. The commercial was produced by Energy BBDO, and the song and the tag were composed specifically for it by Spank Music and Sound Design.
Speaking of music and airports, see also the video for Maroon 5’s “Makes Me Wonder“:
Air travel isn’t glamorous anymore, but at least we can dream (about Adam Levine, too).
While that doesn’t look like any airport I’ve been to lately, you can approximate the feel at that tunnel at the Detroit airport. Lastly, I couldn’t leave the title of this entry without mentioning Brian Eno: Music for Airports.

Okay, I’ve given Movable Type a couple of shots, but they aren’t e-mailing me the thing so I can get an ID with them. So I guess I’ll comment this way.
Anyhow, thanks for the Maroon 5 video. Mr. Levine isn’t hard to watch! 😉
Oh, man… I love that security line commercial. I get so into it that I am always surprised when it abruptly ends just before the good part…
