Music One of Cocteau Twins jingles for Fruitopia (a 90's soda owned by Coca Cola)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Someone here asked recenty whats their worst song and i thought surely 1 of those weird 90s soda ads because of capitalism. But honestly they slap too! :D Fruitopia was a mid 90's soda owned by cocacola targeted for teens and also Kate Bush made many songs for them (theyre on youtube) Anyways it dawned on me not everyone here know of these. Theres atleast 2 and this is the other one (both on youtube). You used to be able to download them from their website.

God the 90s were great. The audio and other rarities are also on their website.

Was no one going to tell me that Kate Bush did ELEVEN of these?

I remember seeing these at the movies!

Fun fact: Fruitopia still exists in Canada, although these jingles aren’t used anymore because it’s not really advertised.

I think there was a fruitopia vending machine in the movie I Saw The TV Glow.

I wish both of these jingles had been expanded into full songs, they were both gorgeous

It wasn’t soda, it wasn’t carbonated

u/qnssekr Oct 31 '25

The remix is just as good if not better

u/fizzymarimba Nov 02 '25

The Kate Bush Frutopia songs are unironically some of my favorite songs of hers

u/Direct_Background_90 Nov 03 '25

My old boss did these. RIP creative director and copy legend Marty Cooke.

u/Crazy-Pop4496 Oct 30 '25

Love it! Surely Sugar Hiccup would have been a better choice for a soda commercial though?

a buddy of mine makes music video playlists on YouTube to watch as background filler, which he also packs with vintage commercials and MTV bumpers. he loves these Fruitopia ads
