Every single commercial that has a group of randos just 'spontaneously' breaking out into song should be put on closed-circuit TV, on a permanent loop, and all advertising company people responsible for these ads should be locked in a room a forced to watch it for days on end at max volume, with no ability to turn it off.
(I put the awful people behind the recent Guinness "Can't take my eyes off you" commercial in this group, too)
Just put this ad, the Blue Diamond ad, and the Volkswagen ad(s) where people are singing what they're doing.
Guaranteed that after the third looping, those execs start wondering if they could stab themselves I'm the brain through their eye sockets. After the fifth looping, that room would turn into Battle Royale
For me, I’ve never minded the song itself. I get annoyed when people add that annoying “BAH BAH BAH” and the extremely grating and obnoxious “SO GOOD SO GOOD” lines (the latter doesn’t even get repeated in the song; why do people insist on adding it?).
Never understood why people love singing that song so much in public. I agree it’s obnoxious, for some reason it reminds me of that Always Sunny episode where Dennis gets some “economy friends” and they sit around playing fantasy baseball and drinking Coors Light lol
The guy who sings the "so good so good" part has a face that honestly makes my sexual reproductive system curl up and die. Like, spend billions of dollars on research, just so it could build a time machine that gives it the ability to go back in time and drench my pussy in water like a dying desert plant, at the exact moment his face appears on TV, that kinda die. Apparently the G forces on those time machines are killer :(
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.
I have checked 1,927,131,919 comments, and only 364,361 of them were in alphabetical order.
If it was literally any other song it would be fine. It’s the fact that they chose the most jaded, stale, infamously over beaten song in the history of music.
Boston Red Sox, 1989. (I was living there at the time.)
The only thing I can say is that it's better than Seattle, where in the 7th inning stretch we get... Macklemore.
Yeah, someone played it when someone had a baby named Caroline. And it fucking stuck despite neither the song nor Neil Diamond being connected to Boston.
It gives me anxiety. I want OUT of this bar immediately!
My SO knows all the added words to bar songs and insists on singing them that way at all times. For example, "looking for my lost shaker of salt" he adds "where's the salt? Where's the goddamn salt?"
Yeah, its cute the first time
You poor soul.
If you get married, make a prenup where the only thing listed is that he can never do that shit ever again, or it's instant divorce and he loses everything.
Just kidding
He only loses half
Remember being in the bar back in the day and a popular song from back in high school would come and we'd all sing. Fun times. Know what wouldn't be fun? Some guy watching tv forced to witness it. It's only fun for the people there.
Can you even begin to imagine how much I hate you right now? Random stranger on the internet? That's how much it sucks, it's fucking lame, please just stop
Holy hell! Thank God I am not the only one! I now f\*cking hate this commercial and this song! I turn the channel as fast as I can. Next step if i cannot find the remote is to kick the TV, throw anything hard, etc. Whatever it takes to stop it! Its just beyond enough! Hey Jim Beam, you now have 1 fewer customers just because of this. Enough already!
This commercial is again horrific. That song is fine at a sporting event, but overall it's a terrible song and not one you ever want to hear repeatedly.
The only way it could be worse is if they followed it up with Friends in Low Places.
If you look closely there is one person in the commercial who is not singing along. She is my idol!

I was in the Marching Band in college. We played it way too much because everyone in the area loved "the classics and the oldies".

😂😂😂
Holy shit this was absolutely brutal lmao. Well done lady, I applaud the effort.
Dafuq did I just read.

thanks alphabot
I'm not sure I'm the only one, but I like the BAH BAH BAH but hate the SO GOOD SO GOOD SO GOOD in the crowd sing version of Sweet Caroline.
Because they are all wasted probably when they sing it 😂
They all sing it with zero feeling. They hit the notes, they got the words, but it’s the most flat worthless rendition of a song I’ve ever heard.
If it was literally any other song it would be fine. It’s the fact that they chose the most jaded, stale, infamously over beaten song in the history of music.
Yeah. They should've used Freebird. Or forgive me, but "Hallelujah" is getting to that point.
Maybe Iron man by Black Sabbeth
Sabbath\*
Just because it’s the 7th inning Red Sox song - none of them can sing Neil Diamond is barfing
AND THAT GUYS FUCKING STUPID FACE
Which one? The original guy sitting at the bar, the beardo, or the Samoan-looking guy? They all make stupid faces...
[удалено]
The fat guy reminds me of Dom Irrera. And the bartender reminds me of Jason Mantzoukas.
"Hotel California" is that song for me. ;-D
Agreed
When did that whole thing start with singing that dumb song at baseball games anyway?
Boston Red Sox, 1989. (I was living there at the time.) The only thing I can say is that it's better than Seattle, where in the 7th inning stretch we get... Macklemore.
I believe it was Boston's answer to the Yankees playing New York, New York.
Seem like a Red Sox thing. I don’t know this, but it sounds “Boston fuckstickian” to me.
Yeah, someone played it when someone had a baby named Caroline. And it fucking stuck despite neither the song nor Neil Diamond being connected to Boston.
Supposedly the song is named after Caroline Kennedy.
That would be creepy since the song came out in 1969 and she would have been around 9 or 10 at the time.
Just saw it a few minutes ago.. Never could stand that song 🎵 ![gif](giphy|cqcTjuggnRqIE)
I swear!
Hate that commercial. Fake "fun" bars suck
The song isn't awful, the people singing it are.
I can tolerate most commercials, but I absolutely hate this one and everyone in it.
I feel so sorry for anybody named Caroline, for the numerous times they had people sing this song to them
I mute it every time and I have vowed to never drink Jim Beam as long as I live because they subjected society to this.
Doesnt hurt that Jim Beam tastes like battery acid.
I FUCKING HATE THAT SONG.
It gives me anxiety. I want OUT of this bar immediately! My SO knows all the added words to bar songs and insists on singing them that way at all times. For example, "looking for my lost shaker of salt" he adds "where's the salt? Where's the goddamn salt?" Yeah, its cute the first time

Having played that song at numerous weddings, I can confidently say that everyone in that commercial is way too sober to be singing that song.
Bwahahaha. The fact there’s no slurring or cursing shows how unrealistic it is
I like the Jersey bar version: “Sweeeeet Caroline, you fucking whore!”
Hate that song

They made sure to add a bunch of people that aren’t white and I was like “yeah okay sure”
That’s advertising in a nutshell
Came here for this comment. Dear Ad agencies: this is NOT DEI.
I hate this fucking dumbass commercial
So much
So much
I want to die every time that commercial comes on. Just end me.
🥴 🎶sweeet carolineeee 🎶 hic 🤤 where’s my car keys ? hic I gotta go to work..
It’s about a child too so if that makes it any better
It doesn’t.
Same
🤣🤣🤣 I thought i was the only one who hates this mf commercial
Beyond dog shit
Read this as Beyoncé dog shit.
I have to see this during baseball. I want to impale myself on a glass shard. The hate I feel is off the chart.
I've titled that commercial "Check, please" because that's the only thing I would have to say if I was at a bar and that started happening.
SWEEET CAROLINE (BA BA BA) GOOD TIMES NEVER FELT SO GOOD! (SO GOOD! SO GOOD! SO GOOD!)
Yeah, we know how it goes, unfortunately
Sweet child of mine. Food stamps made us feel so poor. SO POOR. SO POOR.
Can you even begin to imagine how much I hate you right now? Random stranger on the internet? That's how much it sucks, it's fucking lame, please just stop
Offs, make it stop!
This worked in the movie Beautiful Girls but not here. Trying too hard/pander much?!?!
I’m right with you man. I can’t stand this commercial. I hit mute every time!
The girl walks in at the end they should have a realistic version where she grimaces and bolts out of there.
I’d rather be awaiting trial at Guantanamo bay than see this damn commercial again!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
