This was one of my favorite commercials when I was a kid. Takes me right back to the good old '90s. I still randomly think of this commercial sometimes (which is why I'm here now).
this aired when i was in 5th grade, and to this day, it's still my favorite Gap commercial EVER. so damn catchy! khaki soul is a close second, that rendition of "lovely day" and the dancing was awesome.
Arguably the coolest commercial I ever saw (other than the Diet Coke ladies man commercial I'm still looking for that one on YT). Man I miss the 90s, so much promise in those times.
Legit the best Gap commercial. 20+ years later and I still search for it on the web. Also, brings back memories of Old Navy becoming popular and everyone’s obsession with fleece sweaters lol.
It's 2020, and I just had this song stuck in my head. I realized that I first heard this song from this Gap commercial in the '90s and had to look it up. So nostalgic!
simply one of the greatest commercials of ALL time. I still hum this to my self from time to time... bc of this commercial. Perfect marketing. Amazing this commercial came out years ago and i still remember it.
Such nostalgia. I was 19 when these came out. Loved them. I love all that Glee style of singing and they sounded great. And the boys were really cute. Great commercials.
it's actually alex greenwald, but yeah! I couldn't believe it when my friend told me that he was in these commercials, but it's totally true! I think that the fact that he did the GAP commercials makes so much cuter now!!
I remember this commercial, i may have seen it a few times and knew it wasn't being shown all that often. it must of been played only during a certaain program i was watching from week to week, cause the following week, here was this commercial again..I looked forward to seeing it again and again but i didn't & i took note. It was so short and sweet and the guys were dressed rather sharp and clean cut...guys that appear to be in short supply around these parts. thx4 postin'
This commercial would come on all the time during the Late Show with David Letterman in 1999. Him and Paul Shaffer even joked and parodied these GAP commercials on the show.
I saw mellow yellow on a menu and it got me singing this song, but not just any version - this version. So I had to do a search for it. I found this commercial. Memories!
this was the first of the whole gap commercial series featuring the white background and ppl singing/dancing that I can remember on tv--a classic now! and rashida jones is so cute.
Haha, when I was a kid when this came out, I started wearing these light beige-ish pants with a blue tanktop like the blues in the commercial. That's how obsessed I was with it. :D
Do adults not post on youtube? I'm sick of seeing comments from kids saying they remember this from when they were 6 or 7 blah blah. These commercials were directed at my generation and people around my age range. I was 15 when this commercial aired. True 90s kids rock! And indeed, these were good times. No facebook, myspace or texting. Economy was good. Entertainment was good. These laid back commericals with melodies captured the era well.
Of all the commercials in my 90's childhood, this is the one that sticks with me. I have no idea why, but this is the only one my brain thought was worth remembering beyond the thirty seconds it appeared on the TV screen. It is a good one, though...
...the 90's was so awesome...SO SIMPLE..everyone in the vid's so chill and wearing a shirt and a pair of jeans, simple hairdo's (probably no extensions), light on the make-up...just NATURAL!
The boys used to sing this song about me in my 8th grade class I wore a yellow windbreaker outfit 💛 a yellow jacket with matching yellow pants and a blue denim bucket 🪣hat wow it was 1999 then...lmaooo how did I find this lol 😆
man i miss those days, i ws 16 when this came out. around the same year outkast did mrs jackson.. i remember there were so many catchy litle jungles and songs on tv all it would take was one person to hum the begining and the rest of class would sing it. lol, it was cheesy but we all knew the words and it pissed off the teacher. like a lame movie but i miss it now. easier times in my opinion.
first of all I love these old Gap commercials, and I actually used to shop there when they had cool stuff but anyway. I just noticed, Gap was always kinda considered the "white" person store though the always make a point to have black and white ppl in their ads, no latinos though. Funny, they wouldn't make that mistake today and this is only 10 short years ago. Things change fast
This was 1999. I forgot all about this commercial until the other night I was at a comedy show and the comedian said the audience (a mix of black and whites) looked like and old navy commercial. He started singing this song and then I remembered the commercial for it. He caled it an old navy commercial, but it was a gap commercial. I feel so old, thought this came out at least in the 2000's, not the 90's. I wonder if this was early 1999 or late '99.
'Never seen it when it first got released..was too busy livin'real life..SURE GLAD i missed THIS one..😆...so 'cringeeeey'..😬..😄. I wasn't even searching this..it came in my feed, as i was searching something else..you know when you sing a jingle for no apparent reason..lol.i was looking for the mellow yellow..just butter it..😄.
This is the most memorable GAP commercial ever. 20 years later and it's still in my head lol
Childhood memories. Lol
right? wtf is up with that
I agree💯 but Dress You Up In My Love was my favorite
@@marlo1987sh Yess!!! I love that one too! It's so cute. Even my 9 year old daughter loves it.
@@veganwaffle Lol no idea!
After all these years, I've never forgotten this commercial. I love it.

This was one of my favorite commercials when I was a kid. Takes me right back to the good old '90s. I still randomly think of this commercial sometimes (which is why I'm here now).
This commercial randomly popped in my head. One of the best commercials ever made!
It's so nice to see Ann Perkins hanging out with one of the bash brothers
this aired when i was in 5th grade, and to this day, it's still my favorite Gap commercial EVER. so damn catchy! khaki soul is a close second, that rendition of "lovely day" and the dancing was awesome.
Found myself singing this and had to find this commercial/advert!! Growing up in the 90’s was the best ❤️
Arguably the coolest commercial I ever saw (other than the Diet Coke ladies man commercial I'm still looking for that one on YT).
Man I miss the 90s, so much promise in those times.
Legit the best Gap commercial. 20+ years later and I still search for it on the web.
Also, brings back memories of Old Navy becoming popular and everyone’s obsession with fleece sweaters lol.
this was out when i was in 5th grade. i loved the song, my friends and i would always sing it at school. "they call me mellow yellow!" :)
Crazy story.
These ads roped me in like you wouldn't believe back in the day
It's 2020, and I just had this song stuck in my head. I realized that I first heard this song from this Gap commercial in the '90s and had to look it up. So nostalgic!
simply one of the greatest commercials of ALL time. I still hum this to my self from time to time... bc of this commercial. Perfect marketing. Amazing this commercial came out years ago and i still remember it.
Loved this commercial as a kid. And whoa, Rashida Jones at the very end!
Such nostalgia. I was 19 when these came out. Loved them. I love all that Glee style of singing and they sounded great. And the boys were really cute. Great commercials.
I love this commercial growing up and it’s still in my head. I’m 39 years old lol
Same!
40 and I’ve never forgotten it.
Yes, I'm officially old. Lol but this commercial never gets old 😍
Rashida Jones from the Office front row right. That is awesome! I loved these commercials when I was 14.
Thought so!
Knew she looked familiar
I can never forget this commercial. Loved it. I also wore cords from Gap often. Loved this style. The blonde in the second line was the best
So nostalgic. I love this. This one along with the Gap-a-go-go commercial were my favourite adverts in junior high. They made me love the Gap!
When this commercial came out, it burned this song into my brain! I could not get it out of my head for a month!
(*sniff*) They don't make commercials like this anymore!! Man, this takes me back!!
one of my friends in elementary school used to always sing this at school. definitely one of the gap's most memorable
After all these years, this commercial lives rent free in my head
Is that Rashida Jones at 0:25, the girl in the corner?
Yeppers!
Der looked like her
holy shit
No that’s Anne Perkins
This randomly popped in my head today. Loved this commercial!
my favorite gap commercial EVER. my friends and i used to be at school singin the song... good times. :P
These were the days. Anyone else remember GAP being the coolest thing back then??
I love this commercial reminds me of the good ole high school days :)
Totally!
I still sing this song...lol. Almost 40...heard when I was 16. 😆
it's actually alex greenwald, but yeah! I couldn't believe it when my friend told me that he was in these commercials, but it's totally true! I think that the fact that he did the GAP commercials makes so much cuter now!!
gap has the weirdest commercials. and I love them.
This always pops in my head. I loved the Gap... had so many grey t-shirts and khakis lol ahh 1999.
I remember this commercial, i may have seen it a few times and knew it wasn't being shown all that often. it must of been played only during a certaain program i was watching from week to week, cause the following week, here was this commercial again..I looked forward to seeing it again and again but i didn't & i took note. It was so short and sweet and the guys were dressed rather sharp and clean cut...guys that appear to be in short supply around these parts. thx4 postin'
The first time I saw this I was visiting an aunt who is a Boomer. We liked it for different reasons
When this video came out, it burned that song into my mind! I could not get it out of my head for a month!
God bless I was about 12 years old thinking about this
OMG TRIPPY. i remember this commerical so much. takes me back to old times.
Love these!
Thanks for sharing them!
In 2021 .. why am I still looking for this?!
Idk why it's 2020 and 830am and this commercial popped in my head. 🥴
This commercial would come on all the time during the Late Show with David Letterman in 1999. Him and Paul Shaffer even joked and parodied these GAP commercials on the show.
this was my favorite gap commercial love this!!
OMFGoodness....I Remember This Commercial....I Use To Sing It All The Time.....Lol.....
Each time I drink a Mellow Yellow I think of this commercial...
Each time.
I saw mellow yellow on a menu and it got me singing this song, but not just any version - this version. So I had to do a search for it. I found this commercial. Memories!
same with me and my friend in 5th grade. this became our favorite commercial at the time.
Gap adverts were the shit in the 90's. Especially around christmas times!
I this is my 2nd most favorite commercial from the Gap. I dunno how I can like their commercials so much but hate shopping at the store.
i feel you. for a long time when and after this ad was airing, my friends and i would sing Mellow Yellow at school all the time.
Saw this like in the 90s loved it
Probably one of the best commercials ever
CLASSIC and unforgettable!
Ahhh the days when GAP had quality clothes and good commercials! Boy do I miss the 90's.
His name is Jason Thompson. He now stars on the soap opera General Hospital, and believe me, he only got better looking :)
this was the first of the whole gap commercial series featuring the white background and ppl singing/dancing that I can remember on tv--a classic now! and rashida jones is so cute.
Yes. The signature gap commerical everyone thinks of
i love these ads they sum up that 90s attitude
These are the Gap Commercials I miss
My favorite commercial of all time.
Senior year in high school 😂😂 I was singing it and I HAD to search for it
Haha, when I was a kid when this came out, I started wearing these light beige-ish pants with a blue tanktop like the blues in the commercial. That's how obsessed I was with it. :D
I miss these times 😭😭😭💯
What upsets me more is that I remember this commercial! LOLOLOLOL
This and 'everyone in vests' are my favorite gap commercials. Nice singing with absolutely no emotion whatsoever.
Do adults not post on youtube? I'm sick of seeing comments from kids saying they remember this from when they were 6 or 7 blah blah. These commercials were directed at my generation and people around my age range. I was 15 when this commercial aired. True 90s kids rock! And indeed, these were good times. No facebook, myspace or texting. Economy was good. Entertainment was good. These laid back commericals with melodies captured the era well.
Mellow out?
As a kid, I could never understand why they were all so serious 😂
Of all the commercials in my 90's childhood, this is the one that sticks with me. I have no idea why, but this is the only one my brain thought was worth remembering beyond the thirty seconds it appeared on the TV screen. It is a good one, though...
best commercial ever
Whatever country this is has the coolest ads for there clothing! They're all different but really interesting! Great marketing technique guys!
...the 90's was so awesome...SO SIMPLE..everyone in the vid's so chill and wearing a shirt and a pair of jeans, simple hairdo's (probably no extensions), light on the make-up...just NATURAL!
I remember this from 1999 when I was in 6th grade, this just randomly popped into my head
The boys used to sing this song about me in my 8th grade class I wore a yellow windbreaker outfit 💛 a yellow jacket with matching yellow pants and a blue denim bucket 🪣hat wow it was 1999 then...lmaooo how did I find this lol 😆
Unfortunately, nobody’s falling into the Gap anymore. R.I.P. The Gap (1969-2021)
OMG I remember these commercials, I can't believe Patrick from GH is in these, he looks the nice!!
man i miss those days, i ws 16 when this came out. around the same year outkast did mrs jackson.. i remember there were so many catchy litle jungles and songs on tv all it would take was one person to hum the begining and the rest of class would sing it. lol, it was cheesy but we all knew the words and it pissed off the teacher. like a lame movie but i miss it now. easier times in my opinion.
Wow... I remember these. I sorta miss them in a strange way. XP
One of the guys in the Ad is Jason Thompson GH Patrick. He looks the same.
best gap commercial ever
Oh my god I remember this from when I was like 2!!!
I remember when this first aired =] ... I feel old.
These are the only cords I own that I still use. Great quality
mellow yellow was a song back in the 60s.
so weird seeing Alex look so clean cut, but love hearing him use that sweet mid range of his that he sadly stopped using in Phantom Planet
WHAT? im obsessed with him!
Thanks for the upload. I remember this. I think they had others with this same song for the GAP too.
haha my dad used to always sing this song!!
They Call Me Mellow Yellow!!
haha omg I use to be so excited when I saw a new Gap commercial! LoL, I was such a weird kid haha but seeing them now they were actually pretty cool
I absolutely loved this commercial when I was little. Now I cant help of thinking of cults when I see it.
No one is going to notice Rashida Jones is in the commercial? 👀
first of all I love these old Gap commercials, and I actually used to shop there when they had cool stuff but anyway. I just noticed, Gap was always kinda considered the "white" person store though the always make a point to have black and white ppl in their ads, no latinos though. Funny, they wouldn't make that mistake today and this is only 10 short years ago. Things change fast
yeeesss mellow yellow was my fav Gap add ever! lol wow i sound over excited >_< but i havent seen it in yeeeaaarrrss
@Havic366
It's Alex Greenwald, the lead singer of Phantom Planet. He's in a few other GAP commercials from the time.
This was 1999. I forgot all about this commercial until the other night I was at a comedy show and the comedian said the audience (a mix of black and whites) looked like and old navy commercial. He started singing this song and then I remembered the commercial for it. He caled it an old navy commercial, but it was a gap commercial. I feel so old, thought this came out at least in the 2000's, not the 90's. I wonder if this was early 1999 or late '99.
Miss the 9o's !!!
i had nightmares for weeks after seeings this on tv so many years ago, even now its affecting my subconscious
pyroromancer get help.
Wow, I'm today years old when I realize, no one is wearing Yellow lol
'Never seen it when it first got released..was too busy livin'real life..SURE GLAD i missed THIS one..😆...so 'cringeeeey'..😬..😄.
I wasn't even searching this..it came in my feed, as i was searching something else..you know when you sing a jingle for no apparent reason..lol.i was looking for the mellow yellow..just butter it..😄.
i used to love this commercial when i was in elementary school. lol
Woah Rashida Jones
2024 and why is this commercial still in my head?!?!
