New Windows 7 Ad
All of this year, Microsoft has been putting a lot of high profile efforts in their product advertisement. Including one “Password Protected Bra” for their Microsoft Office product, hoping that some sex appeal will boost the sales.
In the recent wake of Windows 7, it seems like Microsoft is now really trying to make a new image for the companies. Rather than making mocking ads that Apple has been doing all of this time, Microsoft chose to use new tools of marketing : A cute little girl named Kylie. With her first breaking ad as “I am a PC” (without those silly mocking thing) and now the newest ads with a whole more cuteness added in it.
The ads itself is pretty interesting. With Kylie extremely cuuuuuutee way to read all the good things about Windows 7, it really makes me melt.
But then, the Final Countdown intro song sung by Europe came. And this, this, ladies and gentleman, is somewhat annoying for me. That cute little Kylie image is torn in pieces when the song came. And all the image that left in my head right now, is Kylie, dressing in leathery leather, with some hair-do malfunction, singing the Final Countdown. Geez…
Don’t take it wrong, I like that song when I’m still in Junior High School. But to mixed up that song with the cute Kylie….it is like watching Britney Spears’ pussy hanging out with that tacky golden outfit, LIVE, not only just her voice claiming it.
Nice try Microsoft, I really love Kylie face,voice and everything that she does in the ad, but for the “Final Countdown” intro ? count me out.
