Venables Bell & Partners, Audi Present ‘A Special Message from Sarah McLachlan’
Posted in: UncategorizedWe know what you’re thinking: “Holy shit, Sarah motherfucking McLachlan!!” But you should probably sit back down, take a deep breath, maybe drink a glass of water. You don’t want to get yourself too worked up. We don’t want you to start pounding your desk and throwing chairs in excitement. Hopefully you didn’t just scream that out loud for your boss to hear.
The Lilith Fair founder stars in this bizarre Super Bowl teaser that Venables Bell and Partners put together for its longtime client and perennial big game advertiser, Audi. In the spot, McLachlan parodies her own advertisements in support of the ASPCA, offering up a “special new song” to raise awareness for “misunderstood animals.” In this case, the “misunderstood animals” are Doberhuahuas (a cross between a Doberman and Chihuahuas, get it?). The freaky-looking things populate the spot, pictured hanging on couch by the fireplace, on a walk along the beach, tearing up a couch, and hanging out with kittens, ducklings and bunnies. It’s a bit bizarre, but it certainly should get people’s attention. And it features the always exciting music of Sarah McLachlan. You might want to wait until later to watch this, so you can appropriately rock out and get your Sarah on. Just saying.
The ad marks the second teaser from Audi, following “Dog Show,” which debuted earlier this week. Audi’s latest Super Bowl effort will be promoting the automaker’s all-new A3, billed as “the brand’s entry-level luxury sedan.” It will mark Audi’s seventh return to the Super Bowl. Keep an eye out for the spot during the first in-game break and following the third quarter kickoff. Stick around for “Dog Show after the jump. continued…
