Cadbury Airport Trucks Race
Cadbury has launched a follow up video to Gorilla, with Trucks, a minute and half of joy for trucks having a good time on an airport runway.
To the sounds of Queen’s 1978 track, Don’t Stop Me Now, an eight pimped trucks and their drivers race out of the Trucks Hangar at twilight, using every trick in the book, including dropped luggage, to be in front. As in the Gorilla spot, we’re invited to visit the aglassandahalffullproductions.com site.

Lyrics for Don’t Stop Me Now
Tonight I’m gonna have myself a real good time
I feel alive and the world I’ll turn it inside out -- yeah
And floating around in ecstasy
So don’t stop me now don’t stop me
‘Cause I’m having a good time having a good time
I’m a shooting star leaping through the sky
Like a tiger defying the laws of gravity
I’m a racing car passing by like Lady Godiva
I’m gonna go go go
There’s no stopping me
I’m burnin’ through the sky yeah
Two hundred degrees
That’s why they call me Mister Fahrenheit
I’m trav’ling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic man out of you
Don’t stop me now I’m having such a good time
I’m having a ball
Don’t stop me now
If you wanna have a good time just give me a call
Don’t stop me now (’Cause I’m having a good time)
Don’t stop me now (Yes I’m havin’ a good time)
I don’t want to stop at all
Yeah, I’m a rocket ship on my way to Mars
On a collision course
I am a satellite I’m out of control
I am a sex machine ready to reload
Like an atom bomb about to
Oh oh oh oh oh explode
I’m burnin’ through the sky yeah
Two hundred degrees
That’s why they call me Mister Fahrenheit
I’m trav’ling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic woman of you
Don’t stop me don’t stop me
Don’t stop me hey hey hey
Don’t stop me don’t stop me
Ooh ooh ooh, I like it
Don’t stop me don’t stop me
Have a good time good time
Don’t stop me don’t stop me ah
Oh yeah
Alright
Oh, I’m burnin’ through the sky yeah
Two hundred degrees
That’s why they call me Mister Fahrenheit
I’m trav’ling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic man out of you
Don’t stop me now I’m having such a good time
I’m having a ball
Don’t stop me now
If you wanna have a good time (wooh)
Just give me a call (alright)
Don’t stop me now (’Cause I’m having a good time -- yeah yeah)
Don’t stop me now (Yes I’m havin’ a good time)
I don’t want to stop at all
La da da da daah
Da da da haa
Ha da da ha ha haaa
Ha da daa ha da da aaa

What am I supposed to feel about ads that cross over into masturbation? It seems like yet another overblown, empty piece of advertising. Just like Bravia Bunnies.
Some who have seen this ad state that they don’t see the connection between a truck race and Cadbury Dairy Milk. If they take a look at the very strong use of the colour purple in the ad, then they might just get the connection. Either that or they are thick.
