Hi Folks,
This looks long, but I tried to cram as much detail as I could remember.
There was a commercial about 6-8 years ago that featured several (3?) various people singing (and/or strumming on a ukulele) along with a little ditty. It sounded a bit "folksy" in style.
Anyhow, the ditty went something like this:
"Another sunny day
I lie in bed awake
Just dreaming of your face
Why oh why fly to Kauai
When you could be with me in Waikiki"
The singers sounded like amateurs, and were of varied ages - I think one was a young man in his 20's, and there may have been an elderly couple.
There were a few "cut to" shots to the separate actors/singers, with the singing running continuously, in a charming but somewhat tuneless manner. It was mostly acapella. I think the shots were done outdoors, and rather tight on the actors faces. It seemed to be in a tropical setting.
Tragically, I don't remember the product or service that was being sold!!!
This has tortured me for YEARS! So if you could help me solve this mystery I would be very grateful. And if it is a "real" song, I must find a way to get a copy.
FYI there is a newer 2007 commercial that is a tiny bit similar with an older couple singing together outside, while the man plays an instrument - this is not the one I want. I think that one is by an investment firm.
Thank you!
