Emily Anne Leyland ( Art-n-Sewl) says
Whoah…I can't believe anyone laughed at that. I have tears in my eyes. That was VERY powerful. Maybe because I could imagine that being my daughter and my hubby. Thanks for sharing that!!
Christy B says
Oh yes, I saw this just the other day….definately brought tears to the 'ole eyes…

Laughing? Wow….. I was close to tears also!
Watching AI too now. Is anyone else uncomfortable with Kara and the long haired blonde guys flirting????
I posted an amazing You Tube video tonight also about living in the moment… check it out! You will cry! http://themagicbrushinc.blogspot.com/2010/02/gift-of-ordinary-day.html

Wow that brought tears to my eyes. What happened to the contetants on AI they were so good during hollywood. OMG that Casey James is devilishly good looking.
Juggling Thoughts says
Well…that commercial is pretty darn awesome. Love it!
Blessed Mama says
WOW!!!!
Nancy says
Thanks, Chris, great video.
Lady V says
🙂 I wasn't laughing! Nor was I in tears but whatever!
Mandi @ Finding Home says
Seat belts save lives, that's for sure. If my hubby and I hadn't had them we wouldn't be here after an accident that we were in. Awesome ad.
Wishing I could be watching AI! But the channel that is on is broadcasting the Olympics 24/7. I'm missing all of the good tv. Sometimes I hate living in Canada. 🙂
Kris says
Wow…that speaks volumes!!
Mama Thompson says
That was totally awesome!
And no…no one is good enough to win…what's up with this year?
Rachelle says
American Idol.. Hmm. Not quite a fan since Matt G isn't there this season.. Woohoo Hometown buddy! 🙂

Danielle says
Who thinks up something like that?! Brilliant!
BTW…*A.I.* is the pits this year. I feel like I could get up there and sing…and let me tell you, that is really saying something! 🙂
Julia Feitner says
And….. I'm crying. That was powerful – definitely not gonna forget that video! Thanks for sharing.
aahcoffee says

Very Powerful message!!! Very powerful!
Sarah @ Thrifty Decor Chick says
That was beautiful! Thanks for posting that!
All Things Southern says
That was really good, I'm sending it to my kids who drive.

anyone who has ever lost someone that wasn't wearing a seat belt wouldn't be laughing.
Brought me to tears.
Raelyn says
That was pretty cool…anyone laughing doesn't get symbolism.
AI….No one great. I like Crystal on the girls side…but just because I think she is "real" and I like Dewyze (can't remember his first name)
To early for a good call on anything yet….BUT I can say that the judges were all over the place last night…"change the songs, make them your own"…to… "That was too original, I didn't recognize it".
Jo says
I saw that commercial on CNN the other night and I agree it REALLY is good!
Also I really am only watching AI this season to see how Ellen does. haha so far I'm unimpressed with the girls (watching it as I type) we'll see.
Crafty in Paradise says
WOW! Brilliant & beautiful way to illustrate what we've been told so many times that it tends to get tuned out. Thanks!
Marinela says
Great find =]
Thanks for sharing.
Kath says
Woah, chills.
Aura says
Now I totally feel like a jerk! 🙂 I get what they were trying to say, but his facial expression in the beginning is VERY Saturday Night Live commercial. Well, at least I made you giggle, Chris! Even if every one else just thought I was a big meanie 🙂
kiakai/Kelly @ Much To Do With Nothing says
Pretty Cool. Love it!
Carrie says
Um. WOW. . . .And AI – I KNOW! They all had such.a.rough.week!
My faves tho are Casey (also helps that he's not to bad to look at) & Andrew (LOVE his story) . and Haeley (Totally want to own her version of "I Want To Hold Your Hand") & Didi (as long as she burns that rag rug she turned into a vest!)
🙂 Have A Great Weekend!
jerriann says
That was beautiful and powerful. Thank you so much for sharing. I have tears in my eyes.
thewelcomehome says
Wow. Chills and tears. Makes me want to hug my family.
We always wear seat belts but my kids don't really understand that they can mean the difference between life and death.
Thanks
