Simple but great.

Maybe my favourite Olympics ads this year.

First, I apologize for making you listen to that god-awful song.

If you live in Canada, you know it was EVERYWHERE during the Vancouver Olympics and now — for some reason — it’s making a comeback for London.

It was bad then and it’s bad now. Stop.

But worst of all, it’s grammatically incorrect.

*I believe in the power of you and ME.

First the massive BP Olympic billboards were graffiti-ed. Now a series of graffiti artists have taken over some outdoor spaces with their own campaigns.

I don’t know if I’m supposed take issue with this, working in advertising and all, but I don’t.

I love ‘em.

In case you didn’t see this while I was away, a massive six-panel BP billboard was vandalized in London.

Turns out, BP is the Olympic’s ‘sustainability partner.’

Too soon, BP. Too soon.
