Commercials ... because some of them are actually worth watching.

Here's a small collection of ads that, for some inane reason, I keep re-visiting over and over.  Some are funny, others very well made.  I have many more, but I'll start with these for now.  The first one, btw, is not an ad, but Matt.  Simply put, this video always brings tears of ... something ... probably joy, but intense emotion certainly, every time I see it, most notably when everyone participates ... dancing is, after all, such a universal emotion.  It's such a ... social endeavor as well.  And I'm sure you'll find your corner of the world in there ... I did ... I'm in Montreal near the end ... the one where it's raining but everyone is out dancing. :)  Gave me a swell of pride. :D

I watch "Where the Hell is Matt" every few months and the video is still very powerful each time I see it. I love the segment where everyone runs in to dance with Matt and I particularly love him dancing with the children in various slums. The shot of him dancing alone in the Demilitarized Zone in Korea is so poignant.

The following video brings similar emotions to me. It's a group of people joyfully performing some surprise choregraphy in the middle of a busy train station in Antwerp.

The little post-coital rollover they do at the end is glorious.
