Is it just me or does the McDonalds ad say salmonella?
50 seconds in.
They say the music is by Os Mutantes. A Minha Menina. I don't understand Portuguese, so someone will have to tell me what it actually means. 
In any case, it's a poor choice when something that sounds like "salmonella" is that noticeable in a fastfood ad.

Meh. I don't care about damaging McDonalds. But I was wondering how the Brazilians spell the part and what it means.
pen"sando nella" eh? Well, slurry singing voice means I can't distinguish sandonella and salmonella.

^I once came across a Korean song where parts of it seemed to be a string of random English words.
Cute ad!

It reminds me of my little league basketball team. My team was pretty good, but the team my best friend was on was the flat out worst....they never won a game. And after the last game of the season we got a little piece of paper and a deck of basketball cards. His crappy team got Round Table Pizza(Best Pizza Chain Ever) and Trophies. I was like 10 years old saying WTF!?
