Hi first proper post on the forum so hello everyone!
Does any one recall what company this advert was for or even a link to the clip?
It was a Building society or Bank round about 1989 to 1993 era. It was black and white imagery that kept changing and fading and had a woman reciting the following poem. I have tried in vain to find it for years and only knew the first 3 lines. Recently I fond the complete poem in complete form on a message board but no links to its origin.
"At night I dream of many things
Some of which I plan and save for
Some of which I achieve.
When I was young I wanted to see Africa
To run away
And so I travelled
But never left
My dream changed, I
Became us
Became a family
And while dazzling things dazzle me still
My values hold dear other dreams
My home
My daughter's freedom to be
To achieve
My life with the man I still love
Simple dreams I dream
At night
During the day"
I really liked the advert at the time and still think the poem is very good and has stayed with me since. Any ideas?
