Coke: The Dominance of a Beverage
Hi all,
I believe everyone has drank a coke before. In fact, Coke, or Coca Cola, its more commonly use name, has practically become a household brand all over the world. While everyone drinks it, has anyone wondered, why has Coke become so widely recognised? Sure, food and drinks transcends any boundaries there might be in language, but why the great craze over it? I think I have the answer: Its advertisment. More specifically, its music. This particular song was a great hit in the past, if I'm not wrong, in the 1970's. This is not the original version, but I think Coke adapted it and instantly made Coke a worldwide hit. I'm posting both the Coke version and the original version. For those who listen to Chinese radio channels, you'll know that Radio 1003 once used it as its morning theme song. But so much for my talking. The Coke song is only 1 minute long, while the original is 3. Still, I hope you can enjoy this song.
Sorry, just a note before I leave you to enjoy this song. If you listen carefully to the lyrics, you'll notice that they are actually advocating for world peace. So yeah, that's all. Enjoy the music!
Cheers,
Darrel

OK... So Coca Cola is trying to brainwash all the innocent civilans into thinking that Coca Cola has something to do with World Peace or Uniting Everyone, Clear and sweet like a child's voice, or, or, DUDE! PEOPLE FROM OTHER COUNTRIES ARE DRINKING COCA COLA! WHY AREN'T YOU? YOU ARE OUT OF THE LATEST THING! YOU ARE NOT WITH THE CROWD or something like that?

Hi Ziying,
Er.. you're putting it in a very bad way. Let's just say that Coca Cola wants its customers, and the song wants to unite its customers around the world using, well, Coke. Don't be so harsh.:)
Cheers,
