Best. Commercial. Ever.
I've actually written about this commercial before, but couldn't resist including it again. The Sour Patch Kids video makes me so happy.
Does it make me want to buy Sour Patch kids? Um, do I need a reason to buy Sour Patch kids?
Also, a great video is this one that Jason linked to called "I pinch."
Some honorable mentions include this one for Nike that made me cry during the 2004 World Series (I'm a sucker).
And, one of the first modern commercials that I really loved -- long before we were so used to this Matrix-style camera work, Swing from the Gap (I know it got really old quickly, though). Watching this commercial now makes me amazed by how high-waisted pants can be.

That is too cute!! It doesn't make me want to buy any candy, though now I REALLY want a stuffed version of that little pink fluffy thing.
When I see commercials like this, I laugh at all my Tivo friends who skip over them.
That's the thing. I was fast forwarding on my Tivo and then I noticed the weirdness of the pink guy. So, I stopped and rewound and found this. If only all commercials made me want to do this.
yea, guess everyone has a tivo but me now :) as long as tivo users keep putting their videos on youtube, i'm happy.
DOH! I hadn't read your post before I put mine up; at least I used a different Gap commercial.
Man, I TOTALLY cried everytime i saw that Nike Red Sox commercial. I was in Boston at the time, for college, and I had never been a fan of baseball, period. But the city was excited and the tears just came down everytime I watched.
