No computer generated trick to show that a car part moved! In fact, it took 6 million dollars, 3 months, and 606 takes to make this commercial perfect. It’s amazing how much patience and passion the creative team had to finish this ad. I wish I was part of the team.

I love this commercial. The video and choice of song are perfect. The message is clear, that he’ll do anything: get the rose that fell in the sea, go with her when she goes shopping, and push her car, except for one thing–sharing his McDonald’s combo meal. He won’t do that. Anyways, the song is originally sung by Meat Loaf, and the title is “I’ll do anything for love (But I won’t do that)“.

Lyrics of the song in this TV Ad

And I would do anything for love, I’d run right into hell and back
I would do anything for love, I’ll never lie to you and that’s a fact

no no no no….I won’t do

I would do anything for love
Anything you’ve been dreaming of
But I just won’t do that…

No I won’t do that
