Having to sit through 55 minutes of boring adverts at the Mathaeser Cinema last week almost drove me to insanity but the H&M advert was the icing on the cake which finally drove me to clinical depression.

I truly despise H&M for ruining 10 minutes of my life and will do everything in my power to prevent people shopping there. Even the teenagers in the cinema were outraged and things would have got ugly if the advert had continued any longer.

The singing was truly awful and I still have nightmares about it - I would have preferred to listen to 10 minutes of finger nails screeching down a blackboard.

Thanks for the 'present' H&M but you can stuff it where the sun don't shine and Mathaeser think again about showing 55 minutes of adverts for the 23:00 show - you won't get any repeat custom from me !

Go to Cinema. The 23:00 on Sundays never has commercials.

female h&m customers also wear their underwear on the outside and sleep with their handys [sic] under their pillows.
How did you know? Have you been stalking me?

@ UrbanAngel: as for your 'sic' ms. pedantic, it is a german word, therefore it is in the german plural. Re your difficulties with your underpants and the said handy(s) - perhaps you have started a tamagotchi farm under you pillow - there are about 10 million women who find themselves in these circumstances which is about the same odds as winning lotto - for you, I mean. Calling yourself urbanangel makes that about 20 million, by the way.

Exactly - it's a German word. This is an English language forum, hence my post.

The whole thing about this ad is really weird. It occurs to me that the ad may be stolen material from an American production and H&M stuck their name on it. Cheap and tasteless advertising.

Do cenima goers have any rights???. I go to the movies see a good movie and have to tollerate such trash beforehand...just puts me in an off mood before seeing the movie.

It used to be that early movie times did not have ads forehand ..but there too one has to endure 15-20 minutes of comsumer brainwashing. English & Irish ads are at least witty, intelligent and intertaining...
HELP!

I was glad I had my ipod with me so I could skip such a crap, although because this commercial was played as a trailer in the movie theater, some noise was still intruding into my ears. Closing my eyes was a big relief

Tamyra Grey can't sing. She should absolutely shut up. And that is my professional opinion.

And H&M isn't some cutsie "Hausi Mausi" thing- well, maybe just here in germany.
I mean, what would we say in the H&M's in, say, Canada for example?
"Hey Mountie, meet me in ladies lengerie: Hoser."

According to that site they had it pulled in Canada.

Lucky Canadians.
When a film is unpopular, no one goes to see it and it stops running. So as a viewer we aren't powerless, but how do we get rid of this stuff? It's thrust down our throats a full 10 minutes. I saw the H&M Romeo and Julia ad at ARRI Kino and when it was over everyone in the theatre groaned. I'm thinking of writing to Wim Wenders to tell him this rubbish was running the same night prior to his film. What a juxtaposition!
Anyway I'm calling ARRI to complain.
Maybe we'll be lucky Muencheners!

All the power to you Pink Jello!

And I am telling you I'm not going
You're the best man I'll ever know
There's no way I can ever go
No no no, no way
No no no, no way I'm living without you
I'm not living without you
I don't want to be free
I'm staying, I'm staying
And you, and you, you're gonna love me
You're gonna love me

And I am telling you I'm not going
Even though the rough times are showing
There's just no way, there's no way
We're part of the same place
We're part of the same time
We both share the same blood
We both have the same mind
And time and time, we have so much to share
No no no, no no no
I'm not waking up tomorrow morning
And finding that there's nobody there
Darling, there's no way,
No no no, no way I'm living without you
I'm not living without you
You see, there's just no way
There's no way

Tear down the mountains,
Yell, scream and shout
And you can say what you want
I'm not walking out
Stop all the rivers,
Push, strike, and kill
I'm not gonna leave you
There's no way I will

And I am telling you I'm not going
You're the best man I'll ever know
There's no way I can ever ever go
No no no, no way
No no no, no way I'm living without you
Oh, I'm not living without you,
Not living without you
I don't wanna be free
I'm staying, I'm staying
And you, and you, and you, you're gonna love me
Ohhh, hey hey, you're gonna love me,
Yes, ah ooh ooh, love me,
Ooh-ooh-ooh, love me

Love me
Love me
Love me
Love me
You're gonna love me
Shut the fuck up. Seriously... SHUT THE FUCK UP.

saw it last night - really it was so appalling that it was almost funny. but not quite.
and that song, my god, stfu already.

i would consider boycotting H&M but sadly they are quite a good source of clothes for me... dammit
qwerty
Maybe this whole 10 minute ad is a ploy to get you to like the crap movies that follow, like Brothers Grimm

The song lyrics were the highlight of the whole ad. Can't get enough of it.
Surprized you peeps didn't like the song.

Looking at the other promo pics connected with &denim that the clip is promoting the target market doesn't even look like people who wear their underpants on the outside but more like people (ie kids and esp their parents) who might find that look saucy in a clip but in real life actually want to become say like a. merkel. Maybe an allegedly coke-sniffing 30+ who hangs around with failed junkie pop singers is not likely to be a good role model for these customers. But if the Sun had caught her 5 litres down at the oktoberfest she would have lost ALL her contracts, so I guess h&m will take the money of people who only buy their clothes because they are cheap enough to vomit on, but will not necessarily be seeking them out in their advert campaigns.
