The song in that last ad is called He ain't Heavy He's my Brother by The Hollies. I'm old enough that I remember seeing these on TV. Probably on the air between something like 1992 and 1995.
You can choose vs you have no choice or no options to choose from Basically, you are the author of your own story, rather than the lead characters from Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead - a book about two side characters in Hamlet who have no agency whatsoever. The BROTHER one I remember from TV - :')
The guys in the Loser video are probably 16 or moor as they are driving in a car and you have to be 16 to get your learners permit and almost 17 o more to drive around with peers and no adult driver.
@@hockeyaddict7007yeah I remember in the mid 90's when BC brought in the 6 month Learner probationary license (available at age 14 in Alberta I think) and the mandatory "Loser L" bumper sticker/magnet.
Lol My friends and i were younger than those kids in the car when we were... *"partying"* 😊 Weed and booze weren't (aren't) hard to get as kids😁 But, there were only a few that did it all the time. Some of us had other hobbies as well lol😄 And to be fair...girls weren't innocent of partying either 😎
I hope the best for you, friend. The world is still there for you, and man, that’s a rough reality to face. I had a life, I miss it. I gave up the dope, and every night I still dream about it. But no matter how hard it gets, there will always be something new to discover. Maybe there is no heaven or hell. It would be a shame if we didn’t get the most out of this one chance at life.

Me too, that one always makes me tear up 🥲
I totally remember the rehab ad. It played a lot, but man was it hard hitting.

I remember a lot of these.
I never saw the stoner kids in the car. It's good.
I'm 70 and these things were going on when I was 13 or 14. Their target age is not out of whack.
Pretty sure none of these go back 55 years, the last one was late 70s, the other two were 90s.
I don’t recall these, but that last one - oof 😭
Absolutely, beautiful piece of advertisement!

@@ryancheckel8278 it’s a sad world bud. Lot’s of reasons to stay on dope. But much better reasons to get rid off of it.
