    Okay, I confess it has been bugging me - I wonder about the identity of the chap with the guitar and silly little song in a Snickers ad:

    YouTube video of the ad

    I've tried searches, googling, wiki'ing, and apart from a few links to a video recording of the ad (like above), a TON of 'viral' instances of the jingle showing up in people's .sigs, and little else.

    Does ANYONE have any clue who the heck this singer is?!? :confused:

    Someone I know did a search previously, and managed to find the other guy's blog, but...

    Please help me. I'm afraid that obsessing over this would taint my glorious madness with boring, mundane sanity. I don't think anyone would like me sane... :(

    Oh, and during my searches, I found a forum with a list of "Recent Ads You Hate" and right next to the 'Happy Peanuts Soar' entry, was something that absolutely tickled my fancy:
    :lol:

    Though the commercial is one of the funniest I've seen in a while, I don't think the singer is anyone famous. He's probably a jingle writer.

    Thank you, thank you very much, Splunge.

    For some reason, I was thinking it was Bernie Lubbers. But after a visit to his website, (and unless he had radical facial surgery) it isn't him.
