Geico: Airport

Geico's caveman is making a comeback, this time on an airport's moving sidewalk. Geico's prehistoric pitchmen debuted in a 2004 commercial called Apology that has won fans for its portrayal of sensitive L.A. cavemen who are easily offended by the insurer's use of their image to symbolize simplicity.

This spot featuring the caveman in the airport, seeing a large print ad for Geico’s imaginary So Easy A Caveman Can Do It campaign, is artfully pulled off with no dialogue. The caveman’s disgust is palpable. Again, another great addition to the caveman family.

There seems to be more footage of this commercial, which makes me wonder if there’s a longer edit of this. The caveman can be heard saying “I’m looking right at it!” in the missing footage.

The song is: Remind Me by Röyksopp. The lyrics have been posted below.

(chorus)
Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me.

It’s only been a week,
The rush of being home in rapid fading.
Prevailing to recall
What I was missing, all that time in England

Has sent me aimlessly,
On foot or by the help of transportation,
To knock on windows where
A friend no longer live, I had forgotten.

(chorus)

And everywhere I go,
There’s always something to remind me
Of another place and time
Where love that travelled far had found me.

We stayed outside til two,
Waiting for the light to come back,
But hid in talk I knew,
Until you asked what I was thinking.

(chorus)

Brave men tell the truth,
A wise man’s tools are analogies and puzzles,
A woman holds her tongue,
Knowing silence will speak for her.

So now I’ll never know,
As you will only sleep beside me,
And everywhere I go…

(chorus)
(repeat)

It’s only been a week,
(Will remind, will remind, will remind me,)
The rush of being home in rapid fading.
(Will remind, will remind, will remind me,)
Prevailing to recall
(Will remind, will remind, will remind me,)
What I was missing all that time in England
(Will remind, will remind, will remind me.)

Has sent me aimlessly
(Will remind, will remind, will remind me,)
On foot or by the help of transportation,
(Will remind, will remind, will remind me,)
To knock on windows where
(Will remind, will remind, will remind me,)
A friend no longer live, I had forgotten.
(Will remind, will remind, will remind me.)

(chorus)
