Yeah absolutely!!! I'm addicted to watching old 1980's Aussie ads, I need them and I find them so therapeutic and enjoyable to watch! They just make me feel good and happy an overall positive to them unlike ads in 2020. It's amazing what they can do but I guess I'm trying to find a timeline that flowed by that I never really got to enjoy as a child lolz.
Todd Lynch good on ya Toddy. My daughter was born 93 had her 27th yesterday. She and a lot of her mates love the 80s. Her boyfriend just loves and always plays 80s music. I love it lol 😂 . He recons he was born in the wrong decade lol . But saying that. Being brought up in the 70s/80s Mum & dad brain washed me with 1950s60s movies and music. Which were the Pioneers so we can thank them I guess for the 80s perfecting a unique decade of the best music 🎧..
This brought back so many happy moments spent with my family, and more importantly the Australia I want to remember, not the current one that wants to cancel it.
Looking at a simpler time through experienced eyes. wow. Brings back emotions and feelings of the day. Many older people i knew were still young then and now gone.
Holy fuuu...how different was the tone and feel of advertising. No wonder everyone now is depressed. Makes you perk up a bit watching all again. Great content thanks for sharing.
The makers of those commercials may have been born in 1930 or 1940 -- were educated very differently from young people today -- their teachers and parents may have been born before the First World War. All of the makers of those commercials -- and a large part of the adult wage earning population -- had been brought-up on the popular classics-- including popular classical essays in social commentary. The subject matter of the popular classics is very different from that of todays popular television dramas -- The popular classics develop sophisticated emotions at an early age -- the popular classics offer a refined moral sense -- they are not moralistic. It is for these reasons that the subject matter of common conversation was so much more SINCERE and mature and 'up-beat'.
Ah yes, the good' 'ol days. I was a 70's and 80's kid. I remember all these ads. Kinda trippy seeing these again after so long. In my brain these memories are associated with the anxiety of not doing my school homework lol.
That's an interesting one for me as well, when I find something from my past (clothing, ect) I get weird sensations from memories, so what I do now if I throw something out (when I can be bothered doing so) is to take a photo of it. Digital photography enables this little quirk. Might even prevent dementia?!
Marketing was so different back then. Drinks were targeted for young adults by always having them at a beach or out door event in large groups. Food was targeted for families by using a farm setting and etc. Very cliche and simple but I love it
What about: "What's your dental health secret, Crocodile?" **growly voiced croc:** "Thorough brushing and flossing every day. I've got fluoride toothpaste." **Dentist:** "That's the only way." **Croc:** "I visit my dentist regularly and I watch what I eat." Proceeds to eat dentist in one gulp. "No little snackies!"
I remember my dad buying a VHS recorder in 1983. The prices had started to come down a little, but it was still over $600. Crazy to think that electronics used to cost that much.
Yes, and after a few years you would have to take it to the repair shop to be fixed when it started chewing tapes or the tracking couldn’t be adjusted. They were too expensive to just buy a new one like do today
more innocent? people got away with sex crimes in these days. drugs ran rampant, CCTV didn't exist, racism was rife. maybe more hopeful, but you're clearly looking at the 80's with rose tinted shades. more fucking innocent give me a break. these old days were rough.
I agree but I remember as a teenager in the 1980s overhearing the owner of the newsagent I went to in the early 1990s saying to a customer that the 1960s was a gentler, more innocent and more elegant time.
I was a paper boy back then and used to get complained about because there were never any mirror bingo cards in the papers. There "were" but somehow they found their way to my home.😂. My mum never could understand why " "people didn't want their bingo cards" 😉😉 . Obviously I never told her they never had a choice 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Well done finding the tape. Old TV recordings are worth their weight in gold. Thanks for sharing. February 1983 would be just under two years after I moved from Sydney to Melbourne. I actually remember seeing TEN 10 Sydney first come to air way back in 1965.
This was at a time if you watched telly you would expect only three or four ads during an ad break. Fast forward to 2000's and you can get up when the ad break starts, have a shower, get changed and make yourself a cup of tea or coffee, then sit down just in time for the show to start again. Seriously, who would watch free to air today and sit through 12 to 15 ads?
Thanks for putting this up its really good. Took me back. It’s amazing how much has changed. The prices of those video recorders was so expensive hehe.
Oh wow, all this went to air in Sydney back in February 1983. This is just so mesmerizing, right in the heart of my childhood. I would give everything to jump inside my monitor, and go back to the time these ads aired, the world back in February 1983 was such a wonderful place. Even hearing all those old voice overs like Mike Grayson and Holger Brockmen when they were much younger is an absolute intense flashback, oh how nice it was to be 14 years old back then. Lots of laughs, good times, lots of adventures, lots of pretty girls and hormones.
It wasn't that great back then as a 13 year old gay boy I can tell ya...Anybody gay for that matter. So no. I probably would not want to go back to that time thanks so much.
The only thing that doesn’t date is nostalgia. That ice-cream ad with the whistling old bloke works just as well in 2021 as in 1980, or 1930 even. Same with the Sara Lee ad.
Wow man after seeing this I feel so happy, calm and carefree almost?! You feel it just after watching all of this...The old Australia that I miss so much, not a day that I don't long and pine for this but I was only a child back then...What's happened to this Australia, it seemed to all disappear then less than over 30 years ago...This was the Australia that was self sufficient, somewhat nationalist or maybe even isolationist and free from the world's problems. All until the early 90's all of this would be undone and we end a part of the Globalist elite which would cost us our identity and way of life back then....Sigh very sad...
I think it would've happened eventually either way. With increasing technology and a more global outreach, globalisation will always supercede isolationism.
Look at all of the things celebrated in these loveable old commercials: happy family life, beach culture, farms and farming, sports, heterosexual males who aren't made to feel ashamed because they're white, homemakers who are enjoying their families, kind mothers in the kitchen, garden and laundry, people who look clean, with normal hair styles and no tattoos, Australian culture that used to provide inspiration, a sense of having a future and something to look forward to. Yes, even the ads have a sense of joy and hope in them that is now GONE, to be replaced with depression and hopelessness, and a sense that heterosexuality and family life is somehow "embarrassing", in a culture that forces everyday people to embrace ideologies that don't help them to live their best life in a happy, unified society.
Meh, the 80s weren't what you think they are. These ads are aiming for the demographic they want to sell to. They're a fantasy that you're still falling for forty years later. 🙄
In 1984 I bought an Akai VCR for about $800 from my first tax refund cheque. In those days the first working tax year you got all your tax paid back as a refund.

I’m having a really big problem in which the world is heading and hence why I adore these old nostalgic ads and other footage from the past.
The ads are so cheery and simple. marketing now seems cynical and snarky today by comparison.

Can anyone please tell me if that is actor Drew Forsythe or not in the Westpac ad at 9:28? Thanks!!! 😃👍
Yes.
4:38 Bloke's piles are flaring up again.
14:19 "If you can't see the fir sign, it means it went out of business 38 years ago."
That Prima advert is very wholesome.
These ads are very well written, and are just good. The ads that we see on the internet are bad
Does anyone remember the fish head and wax head ads? I can’t find them anywhere
I wasn’t born till the 90’s but I feel like I knew some off these adds 😂
Both the Chum and the Mercantile Mutual ads ran for years and were probably remade and ran into the late 90's.
Soo many memories.
The good old days when positive marketing was alive and kicking this was another reason why my childhood was so colourful there are too many pathetic regulations with advertising every single product now these days!
Name one.
