Target's new "Music Teacher" ad...

Remember last year's Back-to-School TV ad from Target featuring the "Music Teacher" with his improv song "Denim"?  Well this year, Target has brought Mr. Music Teacher back... only this time, he's singing about BTS shopping to the 80's tune "Word Up!" by Cameo.  To watch the video on YouTube, click here.  There's even a Spanish version of "Music Teacher" that I believe uses the Jackson 5 song "Blame it on the Boogie".

That's Ben Falcone...a.k.a. Air Marshall Jon from Bridesmaids...a.k.a. Melissa McCarthy's husband. :)

OMG, Jennifer - you're right! I knew he looked familiar! Thanks for the tip :-)

Last season's tune was pretty much Caribbean Queen by Billy Ocean - only about denim. I like the new nod to Cameo. Reminds of 6th/7th grade when my friend would NOT stop saying "Word up!" for weeks on end. That, and a Tracy Morgan moment on SNL
