SPAR Finding Christmas

[@Kate-HK]

Bring Back the old one!! It was my favourite Christmas add! This one is no where near as good

[@positivelynegative420]

The old one was my favourite Christmas ad ever 😭

[@maymcconnell6827]

So proud of the trumpeter my grandson and his fellow musicians

[@thisismyvoice6298]

We are delighted to be part of the Christmas advert for Spar Ireland 🇮🇪 Thanks from Johnny's. Cottage Breeda Miriam Aine

FOR ANYONE WANTING THE SONG NAME IT'S " THE CHRISTMAS SONG BY THE RAVEONETTES

[@EoinFC]

This version is better. The women's voices are so pure.

[@antoniamcdonnell69]

I love this version too. Does Katie and Aoife have the full version of this song. I can't find it on you tube

Wonderful barn in lovely leixlip

[@MOLYN867]

Interesting to see that all these adverts contain the appropriate amount of diversity.

[@Sean-v3j]

We’re a diverse country

[@lovelybitofbugle219]

Our diversity is our strength 😉

[@charliekane135]

Disproportionate some would say

[@jadler457]

@@Sean-v3j Really? Isnt the UK something like 98% 'white British'?

[@cgolden4590]

Black people are around 3% of the population yet feature in 97% of the ads. That's not acknowledging "diversity", that's discrimination against White Irish actors, many of whom must obviously be getting turned down from jobs in their own country because of their race. And no, this isn't a "dey tuk urr jobs" complaint, it's a simple statement of fact. I don't imagine every 2nd actor in ads in Nigeria is White. It's not Black people's fault, nor the actors - if you get offered a cushy job then obviously you take it. It's the fault of the advertising agencies and the big corporations going along with them. The majority of them are owned and operated by White people, by the way.

Amazing ad

Loved the old Spar Christmas ad and love this one too 🌲

[@charliekane135]

The first 20 seconds were ok

[@pollyester6639]

I love this song. Who sings it. Lovely ad going to be a tear jerker for me after bereavement so “home” means more than ever this year.

Hopefully theirs no blackouts over Christmas..... I get backup camping stove and candles 🕯 be kind and safe everyone ☺️

Please bring back the old one Christmas is not the same without the 2016 one Perfection for christmas Why was it changed it makes no sense. They change everything that makes me happy into something terrible. Please just bring back the old one. This one isn't nice or christmassy at all I am 13 years old start of my teen years and all I want is for my 2022 christmas to be perfect and it's not perfect without the ad so please for the love of god bring it back, thanks for reading. 2023 edit: You better bring it back this year

[@mykingofkings1439]

Totally agree it had become a classic Christmas ad just like the Coca-Cola or Corn flakes ads it had nostalgia... I wish they hadn't changed it, this one means nothing to me.

[@enigma7791]

Brilliant! The ads this year have really listened and turned down the diversity garbage and just focused on the message but included without ramming it down your throat!

[@kaylaskreations4973]

My sister went to college with the girls singing the song

[@krugerfuchs]

It should be ok to show an all white ad or an all black ad or an all the rest ad

[@hitmandon1]

@0.9 why they block out the statue of Jesus? 😂

[@sylviasimpson3280]

Quite lovely setting and a beautiful voice. From Sylvia UK.

[@arponbarua3074]

We want to see this as a song

[@niallmaca5670]

What's the song?

[@videogametv5908]

[@MikeyJMJ]

Why fix the original that wasn't broken?

[@DanielEarlester]

Quite a good ad but their prices....ouch.

[@emmetk1692]

Great song...is it released as a single? Or what the name of the song

[@NazmaBegum-ml8eu]

Really great advert, well done! Definitely up there with my top 3 this year!

[@mykingofkings1439]

I miss the scene with the little Robin flying out from the snow covered tree in the woods, that was favourite part now it's ruined it for me... This means nothing to me, the other one was nostalgic, they should have left it because it was becoming a classic at Christmas just like the Coca cola, Corn flakes and Pennies Christmas ads... please go back to the original.

[@jadler457]

Why is almost every relationship on TV adverts now mixed race? Its really odd, and really not that common in real life...

[@zensng1627]

There's litterally one different race in the video what are you shiting on about

[@Bob_Brown]

7% of couples is the reality, they say why are we focusing on race when the marketing departments specifically focus on it so they don't get moaned at by the woke crowd

[@charliekane135]

Almost as bargain basement as the shops 😆

[@sharonanthony5004]

I loved the expression of the beautiful girl who laid back on the car.🥰

[@smb36704]

Much prefer the old ad. It was one of those that really let you know Christmas was well on the way. That and the Guinness snow ad. Don't like this new one at all.

[@tanyafitzpatrick4605]

This is awful. The old one was my favourite Christmas ad. I'm so disappointed.

[@kermitthefrog3632]

"Spar Ireland"... really? Then only put Irish people in it.

[@CuSO4546]

there was one black woman and two asian children, the rest were Irish, what's the problem?

[@jesusisking3974]

So this is Christmas....under the New Normal...REALLY ??? Nothing about Jesus birth anymore. Eradicating the Truth from Children. So sad...but Faith and Hope will Prevail, then Glory comes when Christ returns. 🙏

[@ehdible]

🤣

[@cgolden4590]

Everything in Christianity was stolen from older religions. The theological euphemism is "syncretism", the realistic term would be "stolen" or "rehashed". Christmas is just a rehash of festivals like the Roman Saturnalia and the Scandinavian Yule. Christians ought to get over themselves; not everything is about you or your religion.

[@breandanoconghaile8600]

Go away

[@bostonblackie9503]

Any mention if Jesus, anywhere!

The ENGLISH be seething if there was an advert with a black person in it because of YOUKNOW ‼️‼️👀

[@Bob_Brown]

You mean every advert where they are wayyy over represented? If it was correct representation they would appear in 7% of adverts not 100%, its forced woke pandering
