Kind of weird in that it was already meant to be club dance-ish, being David Elsewhere dancing and all. As opposed to the unintentional situations like Conan etc.
(-2)
Umm... No... I had an idea to use David Bernel's commercial for a better purpose. This isn't that good. Respect Elsewhere!! The guy, who is doing the dancing, is a friend of mine.

I don't know whether to four this because it rapes the integrity of a classic movie, or five it because... oh hell, FIVE.

I'm really sorry but i don't see what's cool about this. Making things into raves is only funny when they aren't raves at all. I see little difference in finding overused GIFs and posting them here.

It's definitely not Mint Royale - Singing in the Rain Techno Remix. I don't think such a song exists. It sounds like Mint Royale - Singin' In The Rain (Club Mix).
June 25th, 2006
(0)
I did some research. The commercial was produced by DDB, London. Their credit for the music is in fact Mint Royale.

Lol. I remember listening to that remix of Singing In The Rain, but it never occoured to me to put up a YTMND like that. Plus, I don't have the video editing skill. 5'd, nice work! Also shameless plug: http://ravemasterfredastaire.ytmnd.com/

I wonder what Earth would be like if techno was around in the 1950's? Elvis would techno-rock this joint we call Earth, and he would've died from an overdose instead of his heart giving out...

I love this commercial. I love this song. I love this YTMND. The only thing that keeps it from being 5 Star material is that it's, as some commentors have mentioned, already made for rave, so it's nothing you can't see coming. Not to say it isn't awesome already, though.
