VW Commercial Description
2012 Volkswagen Passat Car ad features different people singing along to the Elton John song Rocketman, except they are misunderstanding the lyrics and singing with the wrong words.
First guy, stocking groceries sings: “Burning up this useless telephone”
Second guy on a treadmill sings: “hair is gone” Girl in elevator “all alone”
Girl barista “burning up the room with cheap cologne”
Girl getting a manicure “rusty motorhome”
Guy in the shower “I’m the rocket man!!!”
Guy & girl driving their Volkswagen Passat, sings it right. “Burning down his fuse up here alone. I told you it wasn’t provolone.”
Voiceover Says
Crystal clear Fender premium audio. One of many premium features available on the all new Volkswagen Passat.
Please help us put an end to our disagreement on this commercial! Is the girl correcting the guy singing the wrong lyrics? Or does she finally realize (or hear) the right line from the radio and sits back and says “oh” to herself-because she finally “gets” the lyrics…
Please help me out here-
We love this commercial-so clever…but I want the expensive steak dinner
riding on this!! haha
Hey Veronica
I’m pretty certain that she finally realizes the right line after hearing her husband sing the correct words. Sounds like there is steak in someone’s future.
