This is my favorite television commercial of all time.

[averagejoe]

I loved these commercials when they aired. And here I am tracking them down 9 years later.

[cannibaletiquette]

the only ad in all youtube you shouldnt skip.

@artilleus I believe it's the National Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Leopold Stokowski. I've heard a recording of it that sounds strikingly similar.

[Khaosriged]

Came here after watching tombstone during the theatre scene the song I had heard before and vaguely remembered it from a Jameson commercial thought it was the octopus one

[MatthewChidester]

I'd be speechless if I saw that woman too...

[cleCAVSftw]

my orchestra played the song in this commercial

[okidoll]

That's Torstein from Vikings- Jefferson Hall. 

[elbrus]

what is the song of the new commercial that comes in MTV?

[artilleus]

I don't suppose anyone knows the specific artist/orchestra behind this version of Danse Macabre?

[lucash]

Who´s the violinist on this commercial????

[bman]

@artilleus I think it might be the the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra under Charles Dutoit. ASIN . It sounds extremely similar, if not identical.

[simonee]

@artilleus I do, this is the link from the song. It's a song from a theme park in holland. I live near the park and its the best in europe! It's called the efteling! Awesome that its used in an american add!

[walfiend]

Anyone know the name of the red head actress?

[SouljiaboyBLOWS]

@ItsALLgoingDownHill Because he gave the hawk another barrel of what the hawk thought was whiskey.

[ieyke]

Camille Saint-Saëns - "Danse Macabre"

[jWARRICKm]

My last name is on the sign in the nest.

[ItsALLgoingDownHill]

can somebody please tell me how jameson was generous? The Hawk stole whiskey, he then trojan horsed the hawk and then he eats the hawk... doesn't seem very generous.

[anguslever]

Who cares about the song, who is the redhead?
And no one better say Natalie Portman... it's not

[ItsALLgoingDownHill]

@SouljiaboyBLOWS No, that's bull shit. It is not fucking generous... lol idk
