Chivas' Mermaid by Sarah Khider

By Jian Shuo Wang on 2006-09-10 23:41 · Blogging

Like many others, I am a big fan of Sarah Khider’s song - Mermaid for commercial from Chivas.

Because of the song, the Chivas’ commercial became my best TV commercial. Every time when the commercial shows, I just stop switching channels until I complete listening to the 30 seconds commercial.

The Chivas Regal’s commercial is shown frequently. There is big ad in the People’s Square Station of Metro Line #1 and #2. I don’t drink wine, or whisky. I just love the song and the lifestyle Chivas painted.

How about other countries? Does Chivas use the same song as commercial in other countries, or just China?

P.S. This is maybe the first time I ever posted lyrics, or song in my blog…

CHIVAS " ALASKA "
Chorus:
We could be together
Everyday together
We could sit forever
As loving waves spill over
Verse:
The moon is fully risen
And shines over the sea
As you glide in my vision
The time is standing still
Don’t shy away too long
This is a boundless dream
Come close to me my reason
I’ll take you in my wings
Chorus:
We could be together
Everyday Forever
We belong together
Further seas and over
Verse:
In the garden of the sea
I see you looking over
With my wistful melody
You leap into the water
It is no breaths sighing
This is the mermaid song
The singing of my sisters
The sea has drown for long

Hey, Jianshuo, actually it's you who set me to have my own English blog. You have always been a fine example to me. You have certainly done a terrific job writing so many wonderful blogs here. I have just had a meagre start, so I may need moral support from guys like you. I can't claim to be a better English blogger than you, but it's not bad really. So please come and click away at http://blog.sina.com.cn/u/1253371983. It could worth your valuable time sometimes.

To Shuse:

Come on, that's not wine but whiskey! The way you drink is harmful to your stomach, though it is popular in China. Actually, I think it's kind of profanity to the whiskey culture.

I've ever added Mermaid song in my blog too...

— rachel · 2006-09-11 16:54

— rachel · 2006-09-11 17:01

Hi Jian Shuo,

The ad has this same soundtrack in Brazil. Beatiful song, thanks very much for the lyrics. I already liked whisky, now I think I'm in love with Sarah...

Saludos de México!!

Hey,

Good song indeed...It is supposed Chivas will enhance your nights...

In fact, I live in France and drinks or tobacco companies are forbidden to use TV to advertise their products, it would be so nice if one of you give any link to enjoy the commercial.

Thks in advance.

A très vite à Paris.

Hi there Mr. Jian Shuo Wang! That Chivas' TV ad is shown here in the Philippines every late night. When I first heard it, I was quickly compelled to look for an audio MP3 (of course with lyrics too so I could sing along with the former) on the internet. Thank God I found one. And as I was surfing the net, I also happened to come across with your blog. By the way, this blog of yours is nice! ~~~Holler to all Chinese and Filipino-Chinese~~~

— Nikos · 2006-11-10 03:21

Dear Wangjianshuo,

here in Brazil we have the same commercial as you do in China, but it´s only shown on payed TV. And I also love the Chivas life, though I don´t drink any kind of alcoholic beverage. Down on Chivas´ site you can find a whole bunch of items related to the lifestyle the company advertises. There are wallpapers, info, news, etc. It´s the occidental post-modern man approach to life. It´s cool, like George Clooney, the Mermaid Song, Porsches, Frank Sinatra, Polo, Paris, Black... It´s the place where us all, citizens of the world can share experiences.

We could be, together...

— Roberto · 2006-11-12 01:51
