The original song is hackneyed and cheesy. This commercial does nothing harmful to it. ---

Too bad they couldn’t find a singer who could actually sing in tune. The hack they hired (Nadia Ackerman) ought to take some of the dough she’s getting from this commercial, take some lessons and learn how to stop singing flat. But she does sound bad enough to probably get on American idol or any of the other assinine shows featuring talentless flunkees. ---

The UPS ad graphics are not so annoying at al, and they are trying to get your business. The arrogant people at FedEx assume they have it. But they are right. UPS is difficult to use, and FedEx is easy. Even USPS is easier to use. I have looked at this great website for some time, but I just registered so I could rant about that singer’s voice. What is UPS thinking? They already make it difficult to use their service, now they have a singer whose voice is so grating I want to hurl a shoe at the TV every time I hear the ad (in reality I hit the mute and vow I shall never use this service except when I have no other option ---

Wow, are they even still showing the “Logistics” commercial? 😕 ---

I like it, sounds cheerful and makes me think my packages will be romping around like happy puppies. ---

> [@Bitterfly](#): > > I find this commercial, and the tone of the singers voice to be so obnoxious and so grating that I can’t get to my remote fast enough to mute it or fast forward through it. Something about her voice…too syrupy, too sickly sweet, too phony and fake sounding. I also usually just tune ads out…this one is impossible for me to tune out and up until recently I didn’t even know what company it was for until I muted and watched the commercial through to the end. But you’re right, it is very, extremely, profoundly hate-able. **Bitterfly,** let me welcome you to the forums with a big, fat AMEN TO THAT. I prefer to use UPS when I have to ship stuff but lord, when this commercial comes on I will hit the mute button, change the channel, or leave the room if options 1 or 2 aren’t available. ---

If I ever had a reason to use Logistics’ services, this would convince me not to. This is the worst song on tv as of lately. The music and lyrics are absolutely horrible and isn’t making its point to me. As a matter of fact I have to turn the channel as soon as it comes on to avoid ear rape. ---

I was hoping I wasn’t the only person to feel violated by this horrible song!!! I too have to change the channel or i go nuts. This truly qualifies as ear rape. ---

In the “ear rape” category I would also put the Old Navy ad with horrific take of Night Ranger’s “Sister Christian”. Every time I see that commercial I want to punch my TV. ---
