Does the #VolvoWedding commercial bug you? We've seen it SOO many times and have so many questions. Questions, questions, questions...
Why is the man with the beard in the back seat?
Is the woman in front his wife?
Are they driving to their daughter or son's wedding or is the wedding already over?
Are they happy or unhappily married?
What is that song? Now it's stuck in my head.
Who knew a car commercial could drum up so many frustrating questions? The tagline of the commercial is 'Our Idea of Luxury.'
Speaking of luxury. We sell anti-aging satin pillowcases that are ultra-smooth for hair & skin - and in the spirit of wedding season - they make gorgeous gifts for brides, bridesmaids and shower gifts. Especially our White Russian below.
What is the car exactly in the commercial?
It's Volvo's new 2016 XC90. Luxurious and a 7-seater.
What is the Song?
That soft annoyingly catchy tune as a family drives their luxurious Volvo SUV on a scenic drive is by Sharon Van Etten and called 'Every Time the Sun Comes Up.' See the official video on youtube here.
Why is the Dad in the Back Seat?
He is thinking about giving away his daughter on her wedding day.
What is the FULL story?
If you want to see the Extended Version of the Volvo Commercial (it's only 3 minutes, but feels about 45), watch it below as it shows the son-in-law and wife driving with the father as well:
Slumber party question for you: Are there any other commercials that make you so curious or annoyed lately?

Actually I never even noticed the “tagline” probably because I was so busy thinking “Did they MEAN to make this so stupid and pointless?” As an attempt to give me a positive impression of the brand, it not only failed, it left me thinking that the company doesn’t care about their potential customers, is so snobby that they feel they could put their logo on a steaming pile of **** and people would buy it, or they figure their customers are such dumb mouthbteathers that they will buy their product if they just show them a pretty picture. Come to think of it – that last assumption is probably true of anyone who would buy a car from them after seeing this comercial.
