Well, to be honest, I’m not a big fan of advertisements. Whenever I have the chance, I try to skip them as fast as I can. However, the advertisement that is really stuck in my mind was the one that I once saw when I was little on ATV. So, as you know, you cannot really skip ads while watching a TV, so that’s why it was inevitable that I watched it. So, this was an advert of a chocolate bar called Albéni. They were streaming it all over various channels. So, I saw it in the midst of watching a movie, as far as I remember. And the advertisement was basically, in the advertisement, they basically displayed multiple layers of the chocolate along with local celebrities dressed in similar attires to various ingredients of this sweet product. And they were singing a song about this chocolate, so its name is Albéni. And they were singing altogether, like chocolate pichénie, caramel, Albéni, so like this. And I still remember word-to-word all of the lyrics of this song because it was just so catchy and it scratched something in my brain. And I couldn’t forget it even if I wanted to, so it was really stuck in my mind for a long period of time. And also, the fact that they managed to hire one of the most popular local celebrities at that time, such as singer Renato Galva. And she was my icon, so maybe that is one of the reasons that I remembered it so well.

They were streaming it across various channels. I saw it in the midst of watching a movie, as far as I remember. The advertisement displayed multiple layers of the chocolate along with local celebrities dressed in similar attire to the various ingredients of this sweet product. They were singing a song about this chocolate, so its name is Albéni. They were singing together, like chocolate pichénie, caramel, Albéni, something like that. I still remember word-for-word all of the lyrics of this song because it was just so catchy and it scratched something in my brain. I couldn't forget it even if I wanted to, so it was really stuck in my mind for a long time.
