You know the one: a hot-looking model (short dark hair) watching a car go by and looking like she would like to have sex with either it or the driver. Music starts up (one, two, three, four) drum intro, then Euro-sounding accordian or concertina in rock mode. I like the music, but who is it?
Doesn’t ring a bell. What brand of car? How old an ad?
Rats - just posted and lost it.
Gotta be it. And man, she carbonates my hormones. In a vaguely Euro, Audrey-Hepburn eyes, chisled cheekbones, slightly over-bitey sort of way. When they slow the vid down when she runs her ring and pinky finger through her hair in a “spontaneous” girls-touch-their-hair-when-they’re-attracted-as-a-subconscious-signal sorta way - well, rowr.
Whether that’s it or not, Bajofondo - Pa’ Bailar kicks some butt!
While the music is quite good, the important answer here is that the model/actress in the ad is Karolina Wydra.
Bless you for fighting my ignorance.
The ad was on frequently during the Winter Olympics. The drum solo at the beginning reminds me of the drum line in the reprise of “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” (the one which segues into “A Day in the Life”).
Actually, she does that simply because her hair’s in her eye. I remember this because while watching the video and seeing the hair go in her eye, it bugged me enough to blink and feel a sympathetic “ouch that’s annoying!” And then she moved the hair and I was relieved.
Not that I want to spoil your fantasy (…and I doubt I could even if I wanted to!).
Man, I knew you guys would come through. Good stuff.
