[Antwon]

Lucky for me the I couldn't hear the song as the sound is not working when I watch youtube for some unknown reason.
Did anyone notice that the dancing resembled our very own V8 XXXX Angels. :

Yeah well that's about 70% of the motoring public

[paul84]

Wow that really was bad! Dance act was half assed - and what is a dance act supposed to represent in the launch of a environmentally friendly car?

DANCING? That's a stretch.

[RG]

WTF does a poorly choreographed dance routine using B grade "So You Think You Can Dance" rejects have to do with a bloody electric car????

EPIC WTFAIL!

[LeadFoot81]

W...t...f?

[Chopped]

Whoah that was lame.


---> ALL TOGETHER NOW

Chevy volt and me
The future should be a big adventure
Instead our world is under pressure
Everyone’s talking ‘bout making a change
To cost of fuel and mileage range
Together we face this new frontier
With mysteries to solve, oh dear
What will get us out of first gear?
A better ev
Not that’s a big idea(r)
E for electricit, v for chevy volt and me
Electric car with a battery in charge
E for electricity, v for chevy volt you see
It’s as simple like a dimple, plug it in and see
From the folks at chevrolet
Chevy volt is on its way
It can make a cleaner world
A greener car that powers itself
You get up to 40 miles emission-free clean energy
After that bio fuel or gas will power your journey
E for electricity, v for chevy volt and me
Easier that one two three, just plug it in and see
E for electricity, v for vehicularity
That’s not a word, but it’s okay cuz volt could change the world someday
Volt runs cleaner than gasoline
Less pollution for us to breathe
Charge your car right in your home – costs next to nothing
It’s cheaper than your phone
It’s leaner, it’s greener, it’s cheaper, it’s cleaner – whether you’re in albuquerque, queens, or pasadena
E for electricity, v for chevy volt and me
Electric car, with a battery in charge
E for electricity, v for chevy volt you see
Easy as your a b c just plug it in and see

That is the worse car related thing I have ever seen.

[Franco Cozzo]

This puts Ford's finger ad now in the second worst car related thing ever.

[JC260]

Chopped, how many times did you listen to the song to catch all the words?

[Wally]

Well that was kinda embarassing. But in spirit of the net I'm putting it on facebook, just for the cringe factor. LOL

LOL - I couldn't watch the whole thing (too lame) so I googled "lyrics for volt song" (I think it may be a ringtone too !!!)

[RG]

Actually this could be rather clever marketing, whether intentional or not.

Think about it, a launch so bad it gets a lot of people talking about it (as we are) people posting it on Facebook (as has been done) and there is even a ring tone of it. A marketing campaign that has gone viral without Chevrolet having to be seen as desperate.

[Ryan]

I turned it off after about 30 seconds. The stupid song, and dancing routine was enough for me.

[XR6_190]

Oh my, that was horrific!

I would hate to meet the person who is that lame that they have that as a ringtone

[LANKY 1]

The guy was alright at breakdancing, wish i could do that! wait, what was the ad about? i have a ringing noise in my head :togo:

[GTENVY]

I got to the part where the guy was playing the guitar and the girls started dancing and I just couldn't watch anymore. I'm going to have nightmares about this, thanks guys lol!!

[Jayden]

I hate marketing. but I get that this will appeal to your average person simply because its catchy and lame. Its probably genius from a marketing point of view.

And thats why I hate marketing, it reflects the mainstream lame. Like that new moon movie that was popular so I will make a pact never to see it, ever.

[Bossxr8]

I guess that happens when you have about three fiddy to spend on marketing because the company is so broke.

Stand up comedian Bill Hicks (RIP) was my first thought.

"Does anywhere here work in marketing, if you do, please kill yourself now. Oh, you think there's a punchline, well no, just kill yourself. Now."

[Falc'man]

I couldn't watch it, my computer is set up to block absolute stupidity. This is the first time it's been activated.

You watched the full 3 minutes?

[trippytaka]

OK, an update... the marketing manager who thought up this monstrosity has been "re-assigned" to the truck division. I can only imagine this kind of idiotic idea will go down a treat with the kinds of blokes who buy Chevy trucks! Bahaha!
