Thread: The Gap loves AC/DC

  1. #1

    The Gap loves AC/DC

    Maybe you've seen the new Gap commercial with Audrey Hepburn dancing to Back in Black.

    Of course, anytime I hear the song, I'm instantly nodding my head in happiness. There seems to be quite the uproar by Audrey Hepburn fans though, thinking this is somehow defiling her in her grave.

    Oh well. My point is, this is not the first time the Gap has played Back in Black on a commercial. Remember this one? The chick playing the song next to a wall of Marshall amps?



    And here's the current one. I'm not sure how long this link will last...

    Ahhhh screw em. Its common knowledge that you cant disrespect someone with AC/DC. What IS a disrespect is that these people think this is disrespectful.

    Is anybody considering AC/DC's feelings? Maybe they've been offended 'cause their song was used for some gay commercial.

    AC/DC's feeling's?

    wouldn't they have authorized the use of the song in the video? or does someone else own the rights? the earlier commecial was much better.


    ac∫dc DOES rock

    Eh, I have seen it once, and thought it was pretty creative.
    Maybe next time they will have Lucille Ball dancing to Rob Zombie?

    Yeah, I'm just jokin' around. This ad is causing quite the stir out there amongst critics and Hepburn fans. They're about to erupt in a riot or something.

    Where's the "i'm not offended, i like it" option....

    i think the photo editing is super crisp, and nicely done.

    besides, i cant stand AC/DC, so why should that bother me....

    What are you guys bitchin' about??!! You don't have to try to put your
    J-Lo butt in those jeans. This is the new style (from an old style) for fall, but unfortunately, you have to be a stick like Audrey Hepburn to look right in those pants!
    Never regret anything that made you smile!

    I didnt know Twiggy had a daughter
    I don't understand why women think that's attractive/beautiful! A little 'healthy' on the bones is NOT unattractive. Yes, a nice body is good for show and I'd be lying if I said otherwise...yea, I'm a guy, but an awesome personality wins out every time
