Daikin - Air Conditioner AD

I have been trying to hunt down this particular ad from Daikin for a very long time...
The most alluring feature of this ad is the fact it shows 2 of the 36 views of Mt.Fuji as painted by the Japanese artist Hokusai.

It starts with the painting of The Great Wave off Kanagawa

and ends with a modified painting of Shore of Tago Bay,Ejiri at Tokaido.

Chase - Secret Agent

The bg is "Secret Agent Man" by Johnny Rivers.
The song was the theme song of a T.V. show in the early to mid 60's of the same title. The show starred Patrick McGoowan as a secret agent.

AT&T Yeah Buddy

The only AT&T ad I sat up and watched with rapt attention...

This ad was aired on March 11 during American Idol's 7th Season.
