I don't know if anyone else has noticed, the Harveys adverts are playing a different section of "This is the Life" and not the beginning part. 8)

I've not seen it recently, can you hear Matt's voice more clearly this time?
I had a moan to Harvey's about talking so much over the song, but they probably haven't taken any notice.
I told them their furniture should speak for itself!

No, there is still a lot of talk over the song, but you can tell it's different Marian. :lol:

This is the Life

Post by Michele Monro » Sat Mar 22, 2008 8:42 pm

Harvey's have been using this track for nearly a year now and every time there is a bank holiday they seem to have a sale which is great for us.
Harvey's are now the sponsors of Saturday night's quiz programme Dual and if you listen carefully from the adverts prior to the programme starting and each one in between, it starts off with the song and carries it all the way through as each advert progresses.

I had not spotted that--but on saying that I usually whizz through the adverts---but as I have not watched tonights show yet, I will not do that, and I will listen out for Matt.

I saw it a couple of days ago, but that was an afternoon and I was so busy calling Harry to tell him that it was on that I missed the details. I'll pay attention from now on. :lol: :lol:

Another person was asking in the paper this morning who sings "This is the Life" in the Harvey's advert, and whether the song comes from a film. :? :? :roll:

Harvey's is sponsering the tv show "Duel" with another different part of the song. 8)

Yes Michele mentioned this John. I watched Duel tonight just to see the adverts! Nice to see the volume of Matt's voice is increased too.

Have also seen the Harveys advert, infact heard that wonderful voice first, and smiled and looked at the screen straight away, no mistaking, it was Matt Snr, theres only one person who sings like that, great song.

Hi Kimberley, good to hear from you. Yes, that voice no matter how softly the volume may be on your set, you immediately recognise it. It's so amazingly special. :lol: :lol:

Harveys sponsored another programme(can't remeber which one) last night and Matt could be heard quite clearly singing a different part of the song

Yes, we heard it Edgar, when we switched over from I'd Do Anything to ITVs Britains Got Talent, singing the song in the three different parts. :lol:

Harvey's Advert

Post by keithgood838 » Sun Apr 13, 2008 4:55 pm

Hi, Lena and Harry,
I have a copy of the This Is The Life long-player, recorded
in mono. The cover features a most pleasing photo of
our hero, flanked on either side by two lovely females.
Keith
