Moonpig! I realise I can't type the singing I'm doing but I'd like you all to know I am singing the tune. The lady gets progressively higher with each moonpig she sings.
I don't get it - who really is in need of an online card shopping experience? And why call it moonpig? This whole concept baffles me.

I can hear the Moonpig in my head...and then the key change.
I didn't really understand the concept until I went on their website and made a fake OK! type card for my friend and done things like put pictures of Kinga with the tag line
'My bulimia hell'
And pictures of Judy Finnegan next to Russel Brand with the tag line
'Our secret is out'
You can even just go on and fuck about and not buy anything but laugh at how hilarious you are with your mock ups
Obviously I put a photo of Jake Gyllenhall next to me and ran it as an 'inside our home' feature.

Hooray! Someone else has actually seen it.
The jingle is an utter cunt, but I quite like it coupled with the overwhelming cheapness of the advert. Jamiek was made the website sound amazing so I'll look into it, but I get such a strange joy from milling round Clintons that I doubt it's for me.

I've actually used Moonpig many times and it truly is brilliant. I haven't seen the advert so can't comment.

The jingle is fantastic and as Jamie K says, it comes with a key change. If you haven't seen it yet, you can by going to their website, moonpig.com where they is a link on the front page to view the advert.

I had previously only been aware of the brilliance/shitness balancing act of their adverts, but their site now actually sounds quite cut n' paste fun!

I take it back - this sounds brilliant! Ace cut and paste potential coupled with a rubbishly ace jingle = moonpig is great.

I'm so annoyed that they're advertising this on telly, now my mum won't be so amazed when she gets an ace personalised card. Grr.

They really do save the best for last. "Moonpig dot com" could well be the "I love horses" of 2007.

I expect they called it "moonpig.com" because every other combination of letters had already been snapped up as a URL. I can't help feeling however that they have missed a trick by not calling it Mooooonpiiiiig.
PS It's still absolutely tragic.

I made the mistake of telling one of my mates that I keep getting the Moonpig jingle stuck in my head and now everyone I know keeps texting me nothing but word Moonpig. Bastards.

I had never seen this ad before last week. Now I've taken to singing, "Mooooonpiiiiiiiig DOT COM!" around the house whenever possible.

This advert makes me realise how poor my singing is.
Fucking key change.

Somebody should do the Moonpig jingle in the auditions for the next series of the X Factor. It would cause mass drunkeness amongst the entire Lowculture members list.

Moonpig is the Hastings Direct Dot Com of 2008. Teeth-grindingly irritating yet bizarrely addictive. *wanders off dazed and singing*
