Lexus Commerial

Postby char44256 on 04 May 2007, 16:09

During two commerical breaks with "Gray's Anatomy last night, I was so surprised to see Elvis Costello driving a Lexus. The next commerical had our favorite new mother, Diana, drivintg a Lexus and commenting on jazz and a need for a piano. Wow. Did anyone else see this? She looked great!

Amazed,
Char

:D

I only watched part of the show last night and now I could kick myself! They usually show a repeat of the show on Fridays, so I'm wondering if they do that tonight if the same commercials will air?

Char, how long into the show was the commercial aired?

It may have been half way through. I was so surprised. I'm going to tape it tonight and see if it's on again.

I saw Elvis the follwing night ( Friday) doing the Lexus commerical again during the 20/20 commerical. It's strange I dont' watch TV all that much! I missed seeing Diana again. :(

I was watching Grey's from Thursday night on my Tivo and was typically breezing through the commercials, when I saw that flash of DK. Rewound, and yelled "holy crap," and then ran to my computer, and here you are all talking about it. I guess she doesn't do Chryslers anymore.

My husband was watching "Lost," I believe, and saw the Lexus commercial, too.

Along with her ads for Rolex, maybe Diana could combine them and do a Ro-lex-us commercial! :)

dk commercial!!

Postby fore15 on 07 May 2007, 00:26

YES!!!! I TOO was watching Grey's Anatomy and popped up when I saw DK on commercial...well actually I saw EC first and thought that maybe DK was going to be in the commercial too but she wasn't so I was like "Awww man" but thought geez EC was pretty cool in that commercial (he has the most coolest glasses). so then kept watching the show and when commercials come on I always put the tv on mute and I was just about to mute it when I saw DK on the tube...I was soo shocked, I popped up from my bed and yelled, "DK's on tv!)...hahaha...my roommate had her headphones on so she didn't get to see/hear my excitement...hahaha...=) It was really cool! I called my mom later that night and told her if she saw DK on tv and she said that she has seen that commercial countless times! I asked her why she didn't tell me that DK was on a commercial! - she said she forgot but anyway...YEAH, love the commercial...and by the way EC is in the backseat I believe and DK is in the driver's seat (in command...hahaha). :cool:

I finally saw the commercial with Diana! :D It was during 'Heroes'. I also got to see the end of the commercial with Elvis. Very nice! Now, I'm going to be watching again tonight and see where these pop up!

Re: Thumbs Up on Elvis Costello's Lexus commercial

Postby starrynights on 09 May 2007, 01:42

I saw all three Lexus commercials the first with Elvis Costello, then the one with Diana,and finally yesterday the one of John Legend.

The one I liked best (sorry Diana, John love you both) was the one with Elvis Costello. He was so great in this commercial-it was like he and the music were one- as he sat in the back of the Lexus-his arms conducting like the master himself -Ludwig van Beethoven. And he gave us a history lesson about the disability,the deafness,of the master- and that it coincided with his greatest musical creation.

Wonderful Commercial Elvis. Such passion. Makes me feel like running out and buying a Lexus just for the sound system. Gosh- these twins are going to be so enlightened by both their parents.

Does anyone know the title of the Oscar Peterson song DK is talking about, and presumably listening to, in the Lexus ad?

Finally a show I watch - sometimes! But I missed DK. I did catch the John Legend version.

I also caught John Legend on Grey's Anatomy tonight, which I was watching with the hope of seeing DK and EC. No luck...

although I've only seen Diana's commercial once, I think the song she's referring to might be Oscar Peterson's 'Night Train'? I've heard her mention this in other interviews.

Hi: I have listened to OP's "Night Train" and its a wonderful song. It could easily be the one to which she was referring in the Lexus ad. Thanks for the reply! Tom
