Volkswagen: Think Blue. Symphony. Commercial Song: Wouldn't It Be Nice by Tiziano Lamberti (Italian musician) (Original version by The Beach Boys)
Lyrics used in the commercial Wouldn't it be nice if we were older Then we wouldn't have to wait so long And wouldn't it be nice to live together In the kind of world where we belong
You know its gonna make it that much better When we can say goodnight and stay together
Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up In the morning when the day is new And after having spent the day together Hold each other close the whole night through
Happy times together we've been spending I wish that every kiss was neverending Wouldn't it be nice... ...

The 2012 Beetle looks different from models past. We think that’s a good thing. Not that we don’t love the old Bugs—they’ll always have a place in our hearts. It’s just that, well, this new Beetle really is something special. And part of what makes it so special is the obvious connection to its automotive ancestors. From the very first glance, you know that it’s a Beetle.
Volkswagen: 2012 Beetle High Five Commercial Song: The clapping song by Shirley Ellis
We sent automotive genealogist (OK, Volkswagen Digital Marketing Manager) Brian Chee to Berlin to get a closer look at the 2012 Beetle and examine what’s different and what makes it a Beetle through and through. Here’s what he had to say:
Lyrics used in the commercial 3, 6, 9 The goose drank wine The monkey chew tobacco on the streetcar line The line broke, the monkey got choked And they all went to heaven in a little rowboat
Clap pat - clap pat - clap pat - clap slap Clap pat! clap your hand... Pat it on your partner hand... right hand Clap pat! clap your hand... Cross it with your left arm Pat your partner left palm Clap pat! clap your hand... Pat your partner right palm And a right palm again Clap slap! clap your hand... Slap your thigh and sing a little song go...
Yep. You’re right. The 2012 Beetle lacks both a chrome bumper and a split rear window, and its engine is up front. But that doesn’t mean the all-new version wasn’t inspired by one of the bestselling cars ever. In fact, after seeing them side-by-side, I can tell you that the family resemblance is immediately apparent.
From the exterior design to interior features meant to reflect the original model’s smart and simple purpose, the inspiration drawn from the past–and applied with a modern interpretation–is clear. Read more >>
