One of the most obnoxious commercials of recent.  Played ALL the time.  Nice of em to throw a white chick in the play.  Xfinity hits a new low.
There's a sucker born every minute.

OMG!! This is wrong in so many ways.
1. A black woman on horseback in a main street in a big city, taking a selfie where you can't tell she's on horse at all. Where is PETA when you need them?
2. A motocross buke needlessly burning tires doing a donut, putting burnt rubber and excess exhaust fumes into the air, and just standing there burning her tires.
There is another version which features:
3. A white chick that looks too stoned to even operate a cell phone. (Renee's way)
4. A sexually ambivalent singer. Is IT a man or a woman?
And of course using Fleetwood Mac as a background..
TOTALLY TASTELESS!!!

The singer clearly sounds uninterested singing the song.

With regard to the idiot riding the horse while making a phone video (which, in itself is highly annoying and narcissistic):
We are now in a technology culture where the recorded video of an event is more important to the participant than partaking of the event itself.

It's also quite obvious that she has never ridden or at least has very little experience riding a horse; her form and posture is abysmal.

I'd actually like to hear her cover Brown's Say It Loud (I'm Black and I'm Proud).

That would be epic.

Pretty much the same as YouTube, when pasting the video web address, click the small "film" () icon when writing your message.  Hopefully these step by step pics help.

K back to the AD...
Marie Osmond HAS done some Steely Dan--I think her & Donny do 'Reelin In The Years'-off the D&M show from the 70s--Youtube will reveal a LOT of missteps from that show...
HEY--why not create NEW stuff you slackers? This ad reminds me of Weezers new totally disposable version of Totos Africa that adheres EXACTLY to the way it first appeared in the 80s--WHY? If theres no personality brought of your own bands sound, does this NEED to exist? LAZY

Agreed. I never saw the point to Quiet Riot doing Slade's Cum On Feel the Noize (although it's pretty good), nor to the Dickies covering Uriah Heep's Easy Livin'. They don't hurt it; they just don't do much for it.

That reminds me of when I was a disc jockey. We were playing the snot out of Q.R. and one of our DJs took an instrumental version and created "Cum On Feel The 'Roids". It was a laugh riot and a top request for weeks

The Brianna girl on the horse does Not know how to ride. I can honestly say that she looks very wooden - she is in a western saddle and should not be posting on a trot - posting is reserved for english style such as dressage or show-jumping - she cant even post correctly either - her timing is off - which is why it looks awkward and not fluid. Also when riding western the seat position should be relaxed not rigid and your seat should remain at the cantle (back) of the saddle. To me it looks like she has had maybe five or six lessons tops. I am qualified to review her riding style as having several horses (and a pony) growing up - I used to barrel-race my Appaloosa and compete in dressage with my thoroughbred.

1) Is this supposed to be a dream the woman is having? Who rides a horse downtown in a large city?
2) Is this a woman? Looks pretty muscular for a chick. Thinking more a Brian than a Brianna.

This is the one they show all the time on Baltimore TV stations. The other one you post is bot famuliar.
The one above features San Francisco, a skinny millennial hipster dude. The buff hippie chick wearing the tight Camo shirt and short denim short shorts is hot and should be featured in this otherwise average commercial.
I approve this message.
