Here's another Target commercial. This one is supposedly in English, but IMO much more confusing than the one this thread is about, and shows how "different from mainstream" they try to be in the music they select for their commercials.
So what is hip.. trendy? The latest threads or gadgets.. one year and it is out.. trendy doesn't last long so it is not too smart if one shops at target. One must mix some trendy with some classic to really be hip.
The "hip" are now called "hipsters". They like wearing beards, wearing plaid shirts, and they drink weird brands of beer, you usually see them with a different brand each time. They like cats for pets, they don't like to be called hipsters, you never want to call them that for some reason.
Apparently they've started doing all their shopping at Target because Target's Spanish music ads snagged them.
Damn. I was just going to go about my life, work, and breathe in and out and all that but . . . now THIS.
Target failed to use la cucuracha in one of their commercials and instead used another Spanish song.
My life is over.
Definitely a first world problem.
Allow an inch, and then we are now thinking we live in a foreign country....
Legal or illegal, their potential customers. Why shouldn't Target target them? And again, you're assuming legal immigrants speak English. Legal immigrants might not aim for American citizenship as they would have to give up their own citizenship. When I lived in the US, I had no interest in American citizenship.
Right, anything for a buck! Snub English speaking Americans to make a profit off of people who shouldn't even be here and are so in violation of our laws. Is that really your mindset? As for legal immigrants I don't see those businesses catering to any others than the Spanish speaking ones.
I find Target's new commercial, entirely in Spanish, featuring the ula ula song, disturbing. I turned on the closed caption option on my tv and I read the Spanish lyrics, but they are meaningless to me. Does this commercial bother anyone else?
I don't speak Spanish but totally understood the commercial.
[they want you to buy stuff at Target]
