Virgin Trains Advert - Booty Train

Another great advert for Virgin Trains and fantastic choice of song to use in the advert - another 80’s classic!

The new Virgin Trains advert features Becky who’s going to see her boyfriend Tom for the weekend, from Manchester to London via ‘Snog-On-Sofa’!

The music used in the advert is by 80’s band ABC and the song is ‘The Look Of Love’ from the 1982 album, The Lexicon of Love. You may have heard the song too on the BBC’s sequel to Life On Mars, Ashes to Ashes which is set in the early 80’s.

Advert Music: ABC - The Look Of Love (Part 1)

Virgin Trains Advert - Success Express

Advert for Virgin Trains - Success Express

Virgin Trains’ latest advert features none other than the ‘bearded wonder’ himself, Sir Richard Branson. Blink and you might miss him though (he’s featured at 0.06min) - he’s the one driving the truck, complete with tattoos and missing teeth.
Speaking about the first Virgin Trains ad campaign, Sir Richard said “I am so proud of all of our staff at Virgin Trains and if dressing up in disgustingly dirty clothes, having my teeth blacked out and getting covered in tattoos in the middle of Glasgow station was what it took to prove it – I was delighted to oblige!”

The ad is to promote Virgin’s Business train travel and features Ed, who his preparing for a presentation on the train in 1st Class from Glasgow and down the West Coast Main Line.
The advert music from the Virgin Trains advert is an 80’s classic from Swedish rock band, Europe. ‘Final Countdown’ is the title and the song reached number 1 in 25 countries when it was released in 1986.
