Free to Be You and Me

I'm sure you've all seen Target's back-to-school 2010 commercial using the music from "Free to Be You and Me" and I just have to say how much I love the story that it tells. If you haven't seen it, it involves 3 triplets who are heading to school in their matching uniforms. 
Slowly but surely, bits of their three individual colors; blue, yellow and pink appear.
It starts out in the form or hair accessories and t-shirts, but moves on to their shoes.
Finally, they each grab a ruler in their corresponding color...
And suddenly, everything is in color!

  2. Yes! Exactly. The Blue girl is kind of preppy, nerdy...in fact, she dresses kind of like me! And the Yellow girl is a sporty, jocky type. And the Pink girl, she is my favorite because she is this fairy-princess/rockstar.

    I am in love with this commercial.

  4. I did hear about that. The majority of the internet is actually commenting on the irony of using "Free to Be You and Me" in a commercial when that is the case...

    But yes, the commercial itself is like something right out of my color loving daydreams.
