Such a Happy Video the world should all bond like this.
i fucking love busting out into spontaneous dance!!
WOW I would have loved to be apart of that crowd!!!!
This is what people should be doing instead of wars.
Such a Happy Video you with this stuff really happened in today's world!
love it!!!! hahahaha wish my journey started like that
FREAKIN AWSOME!!! … i wish i was there …
FIRST! Kinda like what they did at Grand Central Station, but they all froze in spot for like a minute!
wow
wow, am i first?
that commercial was just annoying, there was nothing cool about it
You know a few people were pissed because a couple hundred bozos made them miss their train because they were doing "the mash potato."
Wow that was awesome! How cool
That is the coolest commercial. I love it, Perez.
i sore that advert like a hour ago and i was like wow.. and i know what im talkin baout coz im a media student…
It's NOT that rad Perez
What a great commercial, the people who think these things up and make them happen are brilliant!
RADDEST, Perez? Are you a surfer dude now?
That was a great commercial though.
I want this to happen to me next time at an airport or a trainstation!
wow that is rlly FRICKIN SICK!!!the brits are soooo crazy, but HILARIOUS!!!!
Re: beeho. – Yeah a spontaneous burst into song and dance would have brought down Hitler and Mussolini fo sho!!!!!!
THAT'S SO COOL.TO JUST TAKE THE TIME OUT AND LET YOURSELF GO.

HELLO, DEAR!
.
i saw this as well. its filmed at Liverpool Street in London, i expect it was filmed at like 4am, i doubt they would film it during opening hours due to how busy the station actually is during the day
The sorta stole this from a scene in the movie "Fisher King"–but it's still ace!
That was one of the coolest videos ever. it really made my day. So many people having fun and joining in. I LOVE YOU MARIO.
creepy! that must be a virus or something! lol
The Brits have the best creative commericals….
i love this! it's like everyone's putting two fingers up to the credit crunch and having fun for free, cus life is for living and not all about money! (… if they weren't getting paid by a mobile phone network) hmm…
Yawn……… this has been done before.
i was there!!! at liverpool street station! i was there at 12pm. they did the dances over and over again. i stayed for about 5 min and it was pretty crazy. the advert looks fantastic!
this amazes me in so many ways. i'm honestly speechless.
this made my day!
it was filmed at liverpool street at 11am yesterday, i so wish i was there x]
That's a sweet commercial. I agree with italianguy
How fun is that!! Would have loved to have been there.
I've always wanted to be part of a "spontaneous" dance routine while going about the monotony of my day.
I tried this one time at the DMV and people just stared at me. Maybe I should move to England where they will dance with me! Ok all jokes aside, that was a pretty awesome commercial.
flashmobs have pretty much come and gone, but they did do this well. it's cool to watch.
I was there too! Apparently they did three or four takes throughout the day - was there at about 2 or 2.30pm, saw all the signs saying they were filming something, but had no idea what was about to unfold. It was just FANTASTIC! So much fun - real sense of joy, strangers talking to one another, everyone with huge smiles on their faces etc. So glad to have been a part of it.
That was awesome. I want Tmobile!!!
Re: beeho. – tell that to the terrorists
Re: silly billie – party pooper
THIS IS DISGUSTING.
Fantastic! If only the world was really that cool. Even this little "pink" room could you some spontaneous dancing! We might all get along so much better.
Im in this commercial, we filmed it yesterday during the day, was so funny to see peoples reactions! They used about 300 professional dancers and actors and everyone else are just the general public who joined in! Love the fact perez has taken it stateside already! Love ya Perez!! x
Re: ginster – right on!!
Liverpool Street station looks so much less dirty on screen.
love it
ahhhh, coolest thing ever!
awesome! if only the world was this happy and nice to each other
Yeah! Group mind think and being constantly under camera surveillance are so much fun. Welcome to the New World Order
that was so friggin awesome!
Such a feelgood video. I love it how everyone was joining in. It was such an uplifting ad. Makes a change to have something happy on TV for a change.
Wow!! Amazing. Can't wait till I see that on tv. Incredible! I'd love to have been there.
This has been happenning in Japan forever… I hate it when people copy japanese people's ideas and claim it as their own
Douche Chills - Douche Chills - Douche Chills - Douche Chills - Douche Chills
awesome commercial but how the fucking hell is it advertising t-mobile?
that would be so fun! haha
I needed that. I needed a smile today.
Luv'd it! It's inspiring that something as simple as music can unify us even for just a moment. It's proof there is still hope.
that was awesome
Bleh. How is this different from the convicts dancing to Thriller on youtube? Other than the fact that they're not serving 25 to life and have mobile phones? Not impressed. I think Mario has to look up the meaning of "transcend".
i have tmobile
lol this is an exact copy of the type of things that Improv Everywhere does.
check them out on youtube!
Love the Transcendence. We all need to step out of our box or subway station more. Check out ShotgunShoppingbook dot com to really step out of the box.
That was PHE-FUCKING-NOMINAL!
I had tears in my eyes watching it, and I sent the youtube link to EVERYONE I know, and I posted it on my FB page.
That is truly inspiring and an INCREDIBLE reminder of what this world can be like.
PURE JOY! Thank you for that Perez! It made my night!!!
that WAS rad. gave me chills
I wish the world really could be like that. I would love to burst out into random dancing and singing in everyday life..
Nice Video.
Now can T-mobile focus less on adverts, and more on adding some current Smartphones to their craptastic selection of cell phones that hasn't improved since 2006? Yeah I've seen the G1. I'll pass.
So, less marketing, more PHONES! Jeez, I need a drink.
Re: SWEETPIECE OF TEAM LG! – Agreed!
F.Y.I. BOYS AND GIRLS THIS IS ACTUALLY AN EVENT THAT TAKES PART IN LONDON….I BELIEVE LONDON….I SAW IT ON THE NEWS….THEY HAVE RANDOM MUSIC PLAYING AND PEOPLE HAVE TO STOP AND START DANCING…DDEF MAKES EVERYTHING HAPPIER….lol
Re: ilaaloo – I did the same
that is *(^(*^&*&((* brilliant!!! It made me grin from ear to ear!
Andy and I want to do all the guys there at the same time. Back door fun on the run.
STOLEN FROM 'FROZEN GRAND CENTRAL STATION'…HOPE THEY GAVE SOME CREDIT TO 'IMPROV EVERYWHERE'!!!
That was an awesome vid! which something like that would happern around hwere i live
this was so awesome/touching. yeah i know just a commercial, but i honestly believe that the world would be a better place if a large group of people would just get up and dance with each other. i mean look at the smiles on the crowds faces. s o much fun.
that was a waste of three minutes.
LOVED IT!
(but I am not going to change my cellular provider, thank you)
OMG that was amazing
i would have loved to be a part of that soo much.
just spontaneous dance thats great
loves it!
That was fuckin awesome…………….
Re: sheba08 – XOXOXO nice to see you Sheeba!

I love it.. I felt even more a human being…If only we could bond that with the rest of the world

Haha! That was awesome! Certainly put a smile on my face
Soo badass

That was really really good, damn
That was AWESOME! So nice to see something fun and happy for a change!

Re: sheba08 – Re: mamajud – Re: LG sez The Cow is Dog Chow! – Re: SWEETPIECE OF TEAM LG! –
Fukin evening bitches. Nice to see you sheba. Are you also frost fukin bitten? heheheheeeeeeeeee Gotta go feed the aligators..heheeee they out there flippin around for their dirtchickens..heheheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
holy cow that is the best commerical ever!!! It was right Life is Worth Sharing!!!! Amazing!!!!!
Too long!
The feeling of spontaneity gets totally lost when you see one dance after another after another… with hundreds of professional dancers.
I'm sure they'll use a shorter version for most of their campaign.
it's a really cool video, but a dumb commercial. It has nothing to do with the product. Sorry to be a buzzkill… but someone had to say it.
I think I wouldve loved that more if I was actually apart of that crowd. The coolest commercials thou are those damn gap commercials from back inthe day. Those were the shit
Number 75, JohnyCakes: Honey, if this is your picture you are truly a good looking man. However, I bet there is a lot more to you than your sexuality. Personally, I don't give two hoots whether you love men, women, transgenders, bunny rabits or all of the forementioned, as long as there is mutual consent and your partner is an adult. To make it short and sweet: there is no need to be out there all the time and to bring up your homosexuality at every single (non-)occasion. In my book, you are not doing the gay community a favor. (But then again I am a very straight, very boring peroxide blonde soccer mom from the Netherlands, so who am I to speak.)
This seems like it was inspired from Improv Everywhere. They get together and do things like this. They were behind that Grand Central Station thing where they froze for a few minutes and then continued on their way.
