I love it! It's just that the music in the first one blew me away. They haven't topped the music since...

The balls: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oP5J4W5GQ3w

I was suprised by the original though. Jose Gonzales version was much more delicate. I was suprised to find out that The Knife ( a band from Sweden?) made the original.

@Piet: You mean that that clip for The Knife was the inspiration for the Sony Bravia 'Bouncing Balls' commercial?

I don't think the Knife clip was the inspiration for the commercial. It's just the original song. I thought Jose Gonzales had written it, but it turned out to be a cover. But a very good cover.

It is however funny to see the colored balls in the clip. I have to say I didn't notice them before. There are also subtle differences in the lyrics. Wonder why that is. The song is actually rather harsh: Mind is a razorblade... You knew the hand of the devil...

I also didn't notice that before.

But still... a beautifull commercial al analysing put aside ;)

@Piet: Yes, coloured balls in the video... and the kids are skating down a road that is going down.... Coloured balls + a road that's going downwards = ... :-)

Thanks for the extra info, Piet!
