    Some of the ads I've seen thus far rival those of the Superbowl. They include what may just be the best one I've seen in years. I was out watching the England vs. USA game with a random group of fans at a local sports bar, which had plenty of loud England fans as well. This commercial was enough to get some loud cheers from the crowd, the England fans were laughing but they seemed to like it as well. I thought it was brilliant (and is that Robin Williams in the video?)

    <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/JMRMW1FXSHw&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/JMRMW1FXSHw&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>

    This is a different edition from the one I saw, I guess this is the original/extended version of it

    Not a commercial, but nobody gets tired of shikira singing the world cup theme.

    This guy should be known by everyone who is watching the World Cup.

    K'naan: Wavin' Flag = Official WC theme song.

    Warning: VERY catchy! ;)

    I remember that song from the Fifa 2006 WC game.....but that annoying green box made that Youtube impossible to watch.

    Very impressive, considering the song was recorded in 2008.

    Are you sure?

    What is the name of it, I will check the box now, but I am sure I have heard it....maybe it was on the Fifa 2010 game......

    I heard K'naan perform this live at ACL, it was off his latest album. There is no way it was around 4 years ago.

    Yeah, I see that, probably got my Fifa's mixed up.

    If it is the official song of the WC, then it is probably on the WC edition...maybe the menu song, I think that might be it.

    There is never a commercial during the game.
