Posted on June 8, 2010 by ekuseru

Pepsi NEX‘s next commercial will be now promoted by three new artists and groups: THE CRO-MAGNONS, Pornograffitti and Perfume. Each of them covering three famous western hits, “Blitzkrieg Bop” by RAMONES, “Get it on” by T-REX and “Lovefool” by THE CARDIGANS, respectively. Previous artists promoting the drink were Kobukuro, L’Arc-en-Ciel and Koda Kumi.

Perfume’s “Lovefool” is a cover by our beloved Nakata Yasutaka and the choreography for the 15″ commercial is also from the well known MIKIKO.

CM will be aired nationwide on June 12.

You can view the video clip here (hopefully it stays up long enough):
