This ad shows young people at the beach with little cares and breaking the rules. The first seen shows signs warning about going in the water with no lifeguard and also having your do on a leash. They do what they are warned not to and contine on with the carefree day. The lyrics to the song state that "it's all gona be alright hangin around" and finishes with the statement "No cares No worries the day unfolds"

If life could only be that easy!

This ad show a young boy that can't make a shot until after he has a Gatorade. The message is obvious in that if you drink Gatorade you will be able to make shots.

The use of the camera and shadows makes the young boys seem like he is flying through the air like some basketball star like Michael Jordan.

Using the famous word of Muhammad Ali "Float like and butterfly and sting like a bee" gives a message of strength and finesse like the famous boxer was known for.

The ad also goes from showing a hot day out on the playground in color to black and white giving it a different feel, than back to color in the end shoeing that he overcame the heat of the day earlier with at triumphant clap.



I see their knavery: this is to make an ass of me;

O Bottom

to fright me, if they could.

thou art changed! what do I see on thee?

But I will not stir from this place,

What do you see? You see an asshead of your
own, do you?

I will walk up and down here, and I will sing,

What angel wakes me from my flowery bed?

that they shall hear I am not afraid.

I pray thee, gentle mortal, sing again:
Mine ear is much enamour'd of thy note;
So is mine eye enthralled to thy shape;
I love thee.


This message uses words from Shakespere to try to sell you jeans.

This man is walking down the street and comes across a "gang" that harasses him. He stands up to them a says he is not afraid and continues walking. Wearing Levis must give you courage to walk alone at night and stand up to possible trouble. This girls, that seems to be working, just leaves because this force is pulling her to the jeans & the boy.

The final Levis flash says "501 Jeans with Anti Fit" I am not really sure what that means.



List of Demands by Saul Williams

I want my money back. I'm down here drowning in your fat. You got me on my knees praying for everything you lack. I ain't afraid of you. I'm just a victim of your fears. You cower in your tower praying that I'll disappear, I got another plan, one that requires me to stand. On the stage or in the street, don't need no microphone or beat. And when you hear this song, if you ain't dead then sing along. Bang and strum to these here drums til you get where you belong.

I got a list of demands written on the palm of my hands. I ball my fist and you're gonna know where I stand. We're living hand to mouth! You wanna be somebody? See somebody? Try and free somebody? I gotta list of demands written on the palm of my hands. I ball my fist and you're gonna know where I stand. We're living hand to mouth!
