80s Wave CD Commercial

Old commercial

[@NemesisX94]

If you remember seeing this ad while watching cartoons as a young child in the late 90s/early 2000s you're an OG.

[@Iam_Fenix2]

I just sat down with my brothers and show them the commercials I would come on when I was a kid. This one is literally burned into my brain. Song for song lol definitely a nostalgic gym for the OG’s

📺 nowadays you don't see these type of commercials on television anymore, truly a shame. Great music and great commercials like this are hard to come by today. love this

[@wakawoo12]

Gosh I remember staying up on weekends watching cartoon network when I was like 7 or 8 seeing this commercial alll the time. Sweet dreams, and sunglasses at night are the ones I remember seeing the most. I always pictured that Seinfeld magazine too but I assumed that was a different commercial lol

[@LandCfan]

I always associate Sweet Dreams with this commercial and wanting it to be over so I can WATCH MY DAMN CARTOONS!

[@NemesisX94]

It's the exact thing I remember.

[@MrLyosea]

@@LandCfan Yeah I think this commercial was one of the earliest times I ever heard sweet dreams. I do remember it being the first time I ever saw what Annie Lennox looked like.

[@elliea8807]

I blame and credit this informercial being ingrained into my head as a kid in the 90s for the reason even now that I'm 30 having a deep love for 80s music espcially 80s alternative. I digged hours on youtube to find it and im glad I did

[@drsemen5730]

[@LoopHoleLeeRoy]

10000 percent

[@rtlstien]

Remembering seeing this commercial in 1998 when I was 7. Think it led to my love for 80s songs. This commercial always stuck in the back of mind, but I couldn't figure out what the name of the cds were. 22 years later and I finally realize it was for a magazine subscription.

[@GroverKent]

"Goody Two Shoes" - Adam Ant "Melt With You" - Modern English "Church of the Poison Mind" - Culture Club "I Ran (So Far Away)" - A Flock of Sea Gulls "Turning Japanese" - The Vapors "Kids in America" - Kim Wilde "Cars" - Gary Neuman "Too Shy" - Kajagoogoo "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" - Eurythmics "Always Something There to Remind Me" - Naked Eye "Dance Hall Days" - Wang Chung "Mickey" - Toni Basil ??? Can't quite tell "Sunglasses at Night" - Corey Hart "Things Can Only Get Better" - Howard Jones "Cruel Summer" - Bananarama "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" - Tears for Fears "Safety Dance" - Men Without Hats "Rock This Town" - Stray Cats You're welcome.

You beautiful creature. Thank you.

Doing God’s work

[@GroverKent]

Thanks, that's a little more obscure, I rarely hear it on any 80s stations. Then again, some of these are a little more obscure than others, which is sad, because all of these make up a great selection of 80s songs.

[@GroverKent]

I did something similar several years ago, lol. Great minds think alike.

[@kacieremata9014]

Church of the Poison Mind by Culture Club and Cruel Summer by Bananarama are my 2 favorites in this commercial.

[@patrickdumas224]

I remember since I was a kid, I grew up watching Cartoon Network in the 90s. I'd see this commercial late at night before bedtime or on the weekend. I don't think I've ever seen this on any other channel. I'm sure it was on a few other channels, but Cartoon Network was the only one I've seen this one. I remember back in 94, 95, I've seen the "awesome 80s" commercial and I don't remember seeing that on any other channels as well. But Cartoon Network was great back in those days. But today it sucks. I sure do miss those days.

[@medusafanatic]

Loved watching this commercial from 1998 till 2001. really wish I could go back and relive those days

[@DRaider90]

Ah yes late 90s cartoon network, this was one of those music compilation commercials like the time life collection ones that I had memorized, good times

[@ArmiGirl90]

Omg! This was one of my favorite commercials! I've been looking for it everywhere! Thank you so much for putting it up!

[@MacGuffinExMachina]

This and Pure Moods.

[@mikebioshark5903]

This one, out of all the goddamn cd commercials that I would wake up to, this one sticks with me damn near every day.

[@IronShigeru]

I fucking started singing a song, and immediately sang the song that came after it in this commercial and all the nostalgia came back to me.

[@danielmarquis5258]

One of my favorite music genres!! I was 5 when MTV was NEW, so these songs have touched me.

[@baddab55]

It's so weird when you know which song is coming next before it happens.

[@djmajiktuch82]

baddab55 they played the hell out of this commercial that's why... I know that's one reason why I bought it. lol!

[@tylercarta433]

You've got to be kidding me!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been looking for this commercial forever. This used to come on many television channels for a period of time when I was little. I was like only 7 years old the last time it was on. Couldn't ever find it again until now. A few of these songs I don't remember being on here, though, like The Kids in America for example. It's strange how I didn't recognize it when I had heard it later on.

[@tylercarta433]

There's some darn good songs on here too! This is most of the best hits of the 1980s.

[@b.anthony4465]

Wow took me back almost 20 years, thank you for posting this

I have no idea why I was thinking about this commercial.

[@stevob1207]

Oooooohhh the good ol days on Cartoon Network!

[@patrickdumas224]

Damn right. Back when cartoon Network was the shit. Today it sucks.

[@PowerKegGreg]

I scoured eBay for hours and hours until I finally found an auction for the CDs (all the other ones were for cassettes). I only bother with excellent and near mint condition auctions. This auction was for very good condition.... I snatched that sucker up really quick!

[@e-ridefanatick577]

I remember this commercial back in like 2000 when i was 14. Lol

This came out in 1997. The EW magazine featured is ”Ultimate Seinfeld Viewer’s Guide” (Issue #381, May 30, 1997)
