Ozzy Osbourne Crazy Train Honda ad

Honda is using the Ozzy Osbourne classic 'Crazy Train' done a cappella by a family in the new commercial for the Honda Pilot.

The ad is done Wayne's World style but with a family gradually all vocally doing the instruments in the song. Wayne's World kicked off the format all those years ago with Queen's 'Bohemian Rhapsody'.

Bob Daisley and Randy Rhodes wrote the song with Ozzy in 1980, a year after Osbourne left Black Sabbath. It first appeared on the 'Blizzard of Ozz' album. It is now considered Ozzy's signature song.

'Crazy Train' has grown over the years, especially in the USA, to fall into that wonderful genre . classic rock.

In Canada, Honda Civics Come in Giant Boxes of Fake Cereal

By Gabriel Beltrone

In a salute to the flimsy plastic cars that come shrink-wrapped in breakfast cereal, the Vancouver arm of digital agency Dare assembled this gigantic box of knockoff Cheerios, then put a real Honda Civic in front of it. The conceit is a bit fantastical. It's supposed to make driving seem more fun—ostensibly like playing with a toy car—and thus help British Columbia Honda peddle the Civic model. But it's mostly a clever spectacle for rubberneckers, joining a growing genre of over-the-top auto-related ad constructions. Kind of like the insanely tall ramp Hot Wheels is building at the Indy 500 to sell toys—only more cutesy and less terrifyingly badass. In the U.S., of course, Civic campaigns are monstrous, too—though a bit hairier. Via Creative Criminals.
