German song in Telus comercial

[Loshadka]

I think that only candians hae seen this commertial, but here it goes: if you remeber there is a new a Telus mobility comertial with a pig on baloon. Do you know the name of the song in that commertial, or at least the name of the band? Thanx in advance.

 

[nw909]

yeah, that song is catchy, what is it?

 

[The Terminator]

I never saw commercial.

 

[Mr. Redundant]

have no idea what Telus is, I dont live in Canada, have never heard or seen the commercial
however 5 minutes of searching "Telus" in metacrawler brought up this.

German:

Hast Du etwas Zeit für mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied fuer Dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
Denkst Du vielleicht grad' an mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied fuer Dich
Von 99 Luftballons
Und dass sowas von sowas kommt

English:

You and I in a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got.
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone.
Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, Something's out there.
Floating in the summer sky.
99 red balloons go by.

I remember now .. this song was in GTA: Vice City! Wave 103.

w00t :cheers:

Just more proof that game kicks ass.

 

[The Terminator]

OK 99 red balloons is a good song. But the best version of it was done by Goldfinger just do a search for Goldfinger - 99 red balloons. Much better IMO.

[nw909]

they blew up a city because of balloons?

 

[Shuzer]

The city was a balloon, and they blew it up (with helium). The city rose into the sky, and ended up in balloonia.

 

[nw909]

god damn those balloonians.

 

[Shuzer]

They often eat other balloons up there, you know? It's really a sad and horrific site. I once got stuck in a hot air balloon and ended up up there.. let me tell you, I jumped out of that balloon so fast.. luckily, I landed in a puddle in the middle of the road.

 

[Sushi]

I hate telus ads. Those pigs are uglier than an 800lb person in a bikini.

 

[LoneDeranger]

Damn, that song is almost as old as I am.
