John Lennon's new commercial ad-seriously

[flanningcustard]

I saw this on Yahoo today:

Quote:

Furthermore, the new ad is for the One Laptop Per Child Foundation, a charity organization that supplies solar-powered computers to the world's poorest children--so accusations of "selling out" are hardly appropriate here. It is a little disconcerting to hear Lennon's digitized voice say, "You can give a child a laptop," when laptops didn't even exist at the time of his death in 1980...but John's widow Yoko Ono granted the charity full permission to air this ad.

oh yeah here's teh link for the video:

I just seriously find the ad very creepy and it doesn’t really sound like him, though I appreciate this ad since it’s for a good cause.

the voice sounds very unattractive, unlike his real voice  

[Rosegasm]

That didn't sound anything like him. talk2hand

I'll draw you for white ink! goal: 54/500

This is kind of like grave robbing for charity, although if Lennon were alive, I'm sure he would be glad to help this cause.  

[That Darn Coral]

it creeps me out.  

[IceQueenMizore]

Zombie Commercial?  

[that_crazy_fool]

good on 'em for trying but. . .ewwwww!  

[Bugsy Jacquelyn]

No, sorry. This is freaky.  

[spocklover]

Much too creepy...and they tried too hard with the voice. xp  

[Stardust girrl]

Wow, that is damn shameful... ugh... evil

I'm at a loss for words...  

[Blue Silver Stars]

I'm glad they're helping out a great cause and all, but... I get creeped out when they still show commercials that Billy Mays guy narrated... It's like "Some dead guy is trying to sell me floor polish"... creepy!

Even though it's for a good cause, it's a disgrace to John. I had to listen to over 30 Beatle songs to wash away that horrible un-John tone.  

[AWOPBOPALOOBOPALOPBAMBOOM]

Wait.
Wait, what?

Yoko, what the hell? gonk

That didn't even sound like him. It was like the b*****d child of Bob Dylan and that voiceover from the Beatles Cartoons.

I'm gonna go cry mourn my loss of faith in humanity John Lennon impersonators now.

Okay, maybe humanity, too. It seems to suck a lot lately.
