Nice Amazon holiday season commercial back again

[Dan Murphy]

Some folks think Amazon the company can be controversial. That's a topic for the Controversial Board. This thread is just posting a TV commercial that Amazon came out with 2 years ago and is now replaying, presumably for and during the upcoming season. I saw it once today during the Bears football game.

I smiled back then, smiled again today. Some commercial writers just know how to tug at certain heartstrings, oftentimes past memories. Wish I could do those hills again like oh so many years ago.

For those who might like to debate Amazon the company, please start a thread on the CT board, link above.

I love that commercial. The first time I met DH he came to my house with a friend’s boyfriend to go sledding. We jibed and the rest is history. That was almost 44 years ago. Wow!

I love that one, and I'll take it over the one that's currently being shown multiple times a day where the girl goes home for the holiday and her Dad is in too short shorts on a treadmill in her room. That turned me off the first time I saw it.

Dan I just saw the commercial again this morning and said to my daughter how much I loved it!! ( the 3 ladies sledding down a hill) We might be getting older, but we are young at heart too! Oh, the memories!!!

The music is, of course, The Beatles "In My Life" (an instrumental cover)

Yes, memories. Memories can make me misty eyed sometimes. Oh, the memories.

Great song for that commercial, Ron.

Awesome commercial @Dan Murphy!! Saw it yesterday (but during the Patriots game) and was glad to see they were running it again. Definitely warms the heart of us "senior citizens"!

but during the Patriots game

7 points a quarter. Consistency gets the job done.

And yes, a good one for us seniors.

This Amazon commercial reminds me of the old Kleenex commercials when they had a series of "sentimental "tearjerker" commercials.

I've enjoy Etsy commercials over the years, especially the ones at this time of the year.
