Good to see that on Irish state TV that a good degree of the commercials featured, advertised native Irish products and and some other 'imported' ads still used Irish voice overs. Just only a few 'imported' ads still featured 'foreign' I.e. British (& some American) accents! Shows the boyant and growing Irish (Celtic Tiger) economy
Well spotted! The first 11 and a half minutes are from a 1999 broadcast but at the 11:44 mark, another recording cuts in abruptly from a few years later, hence the apparent anachronism.
Nothing shows up when searching for the lyrics on Google, which is unusual. It probably means that the song was written and performed specifically for the advert.
Shazam to the rescue (although it took the app ages to find it). The song is called Golden Love, by Phillipe Guez. ua-cam.com/video/vxfhIWzzVwE/v-deo.html
There were great adverts from Tayto Crisps, Maybelline, Shampoo adverts, Milk, Kilkenny Ale, Shaw's Meats were very funny at the time the teacher on the McVities Jaffa Cakes, Dunnes Stores advert was about collection you will need to get (1995-1996), (1992) & older RTE advert breaks online soon. There was a advert for European parliament elections in it to.
A blast from the past 👍
Thanks for commenting, Mary!
A great trip down memory lane.
That was a brilliant watch! Really enjoyed it 👍
Adds have changed a lot since 1999

The caravan used in the Heineken ad is very like the one used in Fr Ted .
Thanks for commenting, Ger!
The last one couldn't possibly be 1999; it mentions ending in January 2003 and also euros.

The Jaffa Cake ad 🤣🤣 I remember us trying to copy her with them..
Do you have any of the old Power City ads. They were hilarious
Does anyone know the name of the song and singer in the uncle Ben's ad.

Anyone know the song at 4:43 ?
Sounds like Encore Une Fois, by Sash.
