The song which is titled is the same as its campaign, Open Happiness, then became the creative spearhead of Coca Cola's global advertising campaign. The above facts then raises questions which are how music being part of the creative communications strategy in advertising. Semiotics was used as the method to evaluate music as a creative communications strategy on Coca Cola “Open Happiness” TVCs campaign. It also analyzed based on type of music, lyrics and singers. This campaign used the 'dum-dum' beat on hip hop music which creates fun and happy feelings. Then its lyrics asked people to have fun with friends, share happiness with Coca Cola and forget about sadness. Also famous singers which have strong connections with their fans which make it easier for Coca Cola to get into that community. That component is then packed into one song which makes people enjoy it without having any feelings of being persuaded.

  • Motif Interviews Joey Cape of Lagwagon,Top 10 Acts to See at Boston Calling,Album of the Week: Heaters' Holy Water Pool,Rob&Am
    Motif Interviews Joey Cape of Lagwagon Believe it or not, there is a distinct relationship between folk music and punk rock. Once you go past the differences in amplification, the styles share a lot of similarities. Some of the best folk and punk songs have socially and politically significant lyrics about genuine life experiences. Most punk and folk songs have the infamous three-chord structure and both genres have the ability to strike a nerve. Folk artists such as the late Woody Guthrie, Bob Dylan and Billy Bragg have as much musical gusto as punks like the late Joe Strummer, Jello Biafra and Laura Jean Grace. Over the past few years, a lot of contemporary punk rock artists made the shift to the singer-songwriter folk route when in their solo material. One of those artists who’ll be performing at The Parlour on Tuesday, September 29, is Joey Cape, who is the frontman for the Goleta, California, punk rock band Lagwagon. Cape and I had a chat about his opinion on the relationship between folk and punk, Fat Wreck Chords celebrating their 25th anniversary, the story behind his latest solo album Stitch Puppy and when fans can expect the next Lagwagon album to come out. Rob Duguay (Motif): With musicians like yourself, Lenny Lashley from Darkbuster & Chuck Ragan from Hot Water Music doing folky singer-songwriter material, what in your opinion is the relationship between punk and folk music? Joey Cape: Punk rock traditionally has had chord progressions that are very similar to folk songs. Folk songs a lot of the time are somewhat political in their lyrics, so I think there is a very strong connection.
