[...] Jason has completely made my day by identifying that song from the Geico commercial (you know, the one where a caveman is riding a moving walkway in an airport) as “Remind Me” from Royksopp’s Melody A.M. album. I get that commercial stuck in my head every time I see the commercial, but after watching the eery music video, the tune lingers for hours. Check it out: [...]

Thank you. I was searching for this song for so long. My defo made my day. Loves it. a.

ONE OF THE BEST COMMERICIALS IHAVE EVER SEEN AND IM 50YRS OLD!

[...] to find a lot of Metallica songs given their track record of helping to shut down Napster. permalink| [...]

We have Geico,and I love the tv spots. The Caveman are the funniest ones ever! Next are the 2 squirls who got the car to crash, is also funny.I would like to see how and who the actors are the cavemen.who put on the make up.

can anyone tell me the song in this commercial? trying to find it, really appreciate it - loved the commercial

I love this commercial too. Yes, the song makes it special.

I love this commercial and the song. Thanks for the video!

THIS IS A VERY HAUNTING SONG. ONE OF THE BEST FOR GEICO.
I LOVE IT AND TURN UP THE VOLUME WHENEVER IT COMES ON.

I love that song and the commercial. Thank you for identifying it.

More Kudoos for Jason !!!! I love the song..and it turns out I already knew the band to boot !!

Great commercial … and better site that tells me the tune !!

I am “in love” with the Geico caveman…. WHO is he??!! (The one who walks past the airport poster, and who sees the psyciatrist, and who talks to the newscaster about his “tone”)??? These ads are the funniest I’ve seen since the Capitol One ads with David Spade. If i did not already have Geico Insurance, I would get it just because of the caveman!!
And where can the public buy caveman posters?!

i absolutely love the caveman commercials….i would love to collect the cds if available…he is super great and every commercial makes me laugh outloud…he is fabulous!!
can i please know all about this great actor?

The main caveman is John Lehr. I had to find out how they did they makeup and came across this:
http://www.johnlehr.com/caveman.html

My wife and I love the Geico caveman commercials. However, I had a different perspective on the airport commercial. I think the caveman is not “disgusted” with seeing his image in the advertisement, but rather is subtlety becoming more at ease with his “fame” as being the company representative. In fact, when he crosses his arms and tilts back his head, it seems to me he’s preening. I also think the music adds to the ambience, and supports that conclusion.

I totally agree with Lou and actually got on line to try to find support for my position. THANK YOU!!!

I love these commercials!! Thanks for the song info - now, another Geico one - with Verne Troyer, singing “Got my car fixed, it’s my birthday…” Title, anyone?

I too love this guy. The Airport commercial I thought was giving off the sence of pride with a bit of digust.If he is upset than I love him more for his demeaner. I would love to do lunch sometime.

thankyou for having this commercial on here.. its my favorite one.. and im inlove with the song!

Best ONE YET……………. Love that song, Everywhere I go………theres always something to remind me………

This is hands down my favorite commercial of all time. I love the music and expression on the caveman…priceless! Geico has definitely scored a hit with it!

I thought I am an only cavewoman that came from stoneage,
With that song .. I will take him on Mars, by same airplane.

ONE OF THE GREAT SONGS COMBINED WITH COMMERCIAL!!!!! THE SONG STAYS IN MY HEAD FOR HRS.

You guys will love this website. http://www.cavemanscrib.com/ You can hang out in his apartment…play around with the tv, computer, his clothes..check out the bathroom, etc..I drive my husband nuts with it, but the kids and I love it..

OMG…thank you soo much…i’ve been goin crazy looking for this song!

I agree with Lou Fritz & Cheryl Michelle on the mood of the caveman in the airport when he sees the billboard. I felt he acted somewhat proud, not disgusted as in the other commercials. I have a small on-going wager with my son on this one. He says the caveman is still ticked off. I would appreciate reading other interpretations of the this caveman’s attitude. Maybe my son and I can finally get an unbiased consensus and settle our little bet. I’m willing to pay up & shut up if I’m wrong. Thanks in advance for your comments.

LaVerne, I also agree that he seemed a bit proud of the ad. This is a disagreement between my husband and daughter and I. They still think he is frustrated and angry at the ad. So…it seems a bit ambiguous. Wonder what they were aiming for.

I LOVE THE SONG I LOVE THE MEMORIES THAT I SEEM TO THINK OF WHEN I HEAR THAT SONG.I WANT MORE! MY OPINION IS: HE SEES HIS PICTURE IN THE AIRPORT AND SAYS YEAH THAT IS ME!WERE IT NOT FOR US YOU WOULD NOT BE WHERE YOU ARE I LOOK GOOD WOW THANK YOU FOR IDING THE SONG I WANT TO PURCHASE THE SONG DBECKCOM

The fact is he is still ‘ticked off’ with the billboard when he sees it in the airport. there is a little known follow-up to this ad, which may have aired only once or twice–he’s in the airport, in front of the billboard, and is on his cell-phone complaining to someone (geico?) about it.

A great ad–one of the best ever.

Love the commercial at the airport, love love the song “Every where I go” Now who sings that and what is the name? I turn it up every time it comes on. I think that caveman is cool! I think you are smart caveman.

john lehr is NOT the main caveman. he’s only in the one with the psychotherapist. weber is also referenced. no where on his references is the geico commercial. so who’s the proginal actor on conveyor belt in airport?

I believe that in the airport commercial, caveman is still ticked off. He is going on vacation (by the way, i luv the wood tennis raquet). Caveman is tired of all the prejudice against them, and to top it all off, he leaves on vacation and finds another “so easy to use a caveman could do it” ad…and that’s the cue for: “No matter where I go…there’s always something to remind me…another place and time…” (cool song from Royksopp Melody)

“There’s always something to remind me” Of what? It reminds caveman of all the insults

Love, love, love the song…..awesome…on Itunes.

This ad campaign is probably the most brilliant and intelligent work I’ve ever seen. I actually look forward to seeing new ones and I will be sad when they retire it. My favorite was “Not Cool” until the most recent party in the penthouse episode. Please make more caveman commercials!!!!!! It’s definitely better than watching any of the TV shows on these days.

There is a follow up commercial for the airport one. I think he is still ticked off…he is on a cell phone talking to someone….gives dimensions of the picture and says “Well apparently not cause Im looking right at it”

[...] This is a followup to the Geico caveman airport commercial. In it the caveman is on the phone with someone about the offending ad. It appears that it was supposed to be taken down but is still there. [...]

There is something about this song that I just can’t get over. I’d hear it from the next room and always forget to ask what commercial it was. It’s been drving me crazy for weeks! I am so relieved to find out what it is. I love these geico commercials! My favortie is still the one where they are in the restaraunt and he ‘loses his appetite’. Too good.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my question about the mood of the caveman in the 1st airport scene. Alright, already, I guess it’s time for me admit an error in judgement and pay up on the wager with my son. Thanks again!

I like the one where he is being interviewed by Fox News and he says about yes we made the wheel, walked upright..
the disgusted look when asked if he woke up under the wrong rock is AWESOME
Whoever came up with these ads must be a genious and probably very weathy by now…They earned it…
Can’t wait to meet Tina and Mom

I love this song, and the commercial is extatic. Way to go Geico and the caveman.

I dig the old wooden tennis racquet. It carries the message much further than a new modern racquet would.

I am still wondering who that cutie caveman is in the airport commercial!! Anyone know for sure?? Or how to find out??? oh well, maybe looking at the “real” guy will spoil it….afterall, it’s this caveman I’m in love with….just as he is!!!!

this is my favorite commercial of all time. the caveman said so much without saying a word. his body language and posture…every move he makes…can bring tears to my eyes. not to mention the music, the volume goes up, its so beautiful. i gotta tell myself, its only a commercial. i hate when its over. the other commercials dont come close to this one and sadly never will. but you guys keep trying,okay?

can someone explain the therapist commercial especially the part where is mother calls in and he says ” I’ll put her on speaker”. I am dying here, what is the meaning?

Help

PLEASE!!!!!..can someone put that commercial back on so I can save it on my hard drive????? Funniest of all time…can’t get enough

I would go out and buy Geico Car Insurance Just because of these great commercials. I guess that was their goal in the first place right? Well it worked!!!

i was wondering if you can get the posters in the commercial anywhere. it would be awesome to have one.

just as an fyi: john lehr isn’t the airport caveman. he’s in the very first one: NOT COOL! (the boom operator) the therapy one IT’S MY MOM, I’LL PUT HER ON SPEAKER and he’s in the latest one with all three. all guys seem to be perfect to me. i’ll be interested to see if they get the other two for the new abc caveman pilot. john lehr is unavailable because he has his own show on TBS “10 items or less.”

Well I’ve heard that it’s official. The cavemen from this commercial series is moving on to an actual Comedy Series!, Check it out.

Thank You so much for the name of who sings the song. Myself and my Nephew stop everything were doing just to watch the commercial and to hear our song. I plan on getting the album

I asked my boyfriend how on earth I would find this song!!! Thank you so much. It is awesome!! I am going to check out the rest of their album. thanks again

The caveman is most definitely upset about this poster add. There is even a follow up commercial where he is adamantly upset and describing the add to someone on the phone.

Oh my thank you, you just dont now and reading everyone else comments we are glad someone knew who made that song.
Thanks

Thank you so much. I have been trying to download that song for the longest, I just didnt know the name of it, and boyfriend loves it.

Thanx so much!!! Love the commercial, love the song. =)

Still would like to know who the AIRPORT CAVEMAN is. This appears to be a different actor than the caveman with the psychotherapist. Can’t locate the info.

I love the commercial Airport Cavemen. When it comes on my husband yells at me, Your commercial is on! I agree, that song stays in your mind for a long time… I was wondering who sings that song too. Thanks!

thx b33n lookin 4 it. funny commercial lol

I read in a magazine that the caveman was Danny Masterson from “That 70’s show” - I will have to go back and look for that magazine to confirm…I will keep you posted.

I love the cave man commericial. I am going to buy the cd. Thanks

I like that song alot

Thank you Jason. I love Royksopp and already have many songs from them. I thought the music sauned familier. Will download the song asap.
Have a great summer. Manuela ( Owner of Cafe Little Europa in Brookfield,CT)

Jason…you are hot! Love the music..love the commercials and that song really does grab a hold and keep you singing that beat all day!

Sorry Lou Fritz but Respectfully your take is way off base lets look at the following facts:

1) None of the cavemen are company spokesmen, please note that the photo on the airport wall is a substandard photo/makeup what ever you want to call it. An no other commerical by GEICO ever presents the cavemen as spokesmen.

2) Follow up to number 1 remember the commerical with the caveman in the therapist office and the dialogue they have, the caveman is having troubles BECAUSE of the fact that GEICO has thrown them out there without any input from the cavemen.

3) Remember this fact that cavemen (Neanderthal man) lived some 300,000 years before Homosapien (Cro-magon),(i.e. modern man) appeared and they did live at the same time and in some cases together in the same areas, and there is some evidence that they actually may have lived together from time to time. DNA evidence suggests that they were close enought to maybe reproduce. Then finally somewhere around 35,000 yrs B.C. they died out because of the ratio between birth and death rates and because of the Competition for resources with man.

4) This references #3 above, the song “Remind Me” is actually a image generator to let you know what is going through the caveman’s mind “I remember a different place and time”. What he is remembering is the time before Homosapien showed up on the scene. Before the arrival of man the cavemen had the whole world to themselves and did not have to deal with us a aggresive, and Violent species.

5) If any of the cavemen were company spokesmen then the entire theme of the commerical would be wrong, remember the other commercial where they are at a party and outside on the balcony and the main character is kind of chewing out the one leaning over the railing I may not get the exact words correct but to this effect he says “what did you expect you went with GEICO, why just to save some money”.

You are trying to be a college professor here and over Analyze the thing, Remember the KISS princple it is correct about 99.9% of the time.

Mike:

The reference to “it’s my mother, I will put her on speaker phone” is a reference to Freudian Psychotherapy and in particular the element of Repression where adult problems can be traced back to your childhood. Many times these problems are the result of how your Mother or Father screwed up your mind while you were young. So instead of explaining his relationship to his mother to the Doctor he just thought she could listen in on their converstion and save time.

The song in the airport commercial is the most soothing song i have ever heard. It relaxes me completely every time I hear it. I’m thinking of putting it in my car to drive to.

Thank you sooooooo much I have been searching for this song!!!I love it!! The beat the lyrics!!! Good roadtrip song!!

I read in a magazine that danny masterson played the commercial

You are the man! Thanks!

Thank you thank you thank you as Gomer Pyle whould say. Love that song.

Thank you, cookie for answering the question about the mom on the speaker phone. I’ve been asking everyone I knew.

Oh Cookie, now who’s over-analyzing the therapist commercial. The commercial simply uses the therapist setting to explain the effect of the ads on the cavemen, basically saying that it bothers them so much that they need therapy for it. Although I believe the whole Freudian Philosophy of all adult problems being able to be traced back to childhood abuse, neglect or mistakes a big bunch of bull**** (I know plenty of abused/neglected kids that grew up just fine and a few VERY bad adults who were raised in very loving, caring homes with both parents present), I agree that’s probably what they were referencing.

Does anyone know where I can get sound bytes from the commercials? I’m not sure how to extract them from videos and wondered with so many .wav file sites out there that someone has to have them out there to download. Anyone have ideas or know of any?
Thanks!!

Does anyone know who makes the zip-up sweatshirt the Airport caveman is wearing?Or where I can buy one?
It’s Brown,white,yellow and blue….need it to complete my costume.

Would one of you computer whiz guys download the Flash file and put it on Limewire where the rest of us mortals can save it to our computer? We would greatly appreciate it!!

I’m sorry…but you are all punks…the caveman was obviously drunk on something and happy that he was flying…also happy that he was becoming famous in front of the ENTIRE WORLD….Jesus Christo, I’d love to have that much hair

I’m 59 years old and I love the caveman commercials. My son-in-law likes them too. His wife (my daughter) and my wife don’t like them. We can’t understand how anyone would not like the caveman. I would like to be a caveman for halloween, but can’t find any caveman costumes that look like the Geico cavemen. Any help out there?

my husband would also like to be the geico caveman for halloween - if anyone finds out where we can get the costume please let me know - thanks

Still no leads on Geico caveman costume. I am a pharmacist for a major national pharmacy chain. Can you imagine the surprise of customers in the drive-thru as they are greeted by a Geico caveman?…..Priceless!!!….Everywhere I go….There’s always something to remind me……

Thanks I have been searching for this song for a couple of months!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You’re awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey guys,
Just discovered the following link. All you ever wanted to know about your favorite cave dudes, and who is under the makeup, along with other tidbits about the ads!!
go here: http://www.duncans.tv/2006/geico-cavemen

Have too much fun!
Yes, I am a caveman dork too. Damn.

I know I am a bit late, but I think clearly the caveman is showing off (someone aptly describes him as preening). It looks to me like a model standing next to an add so they can show off their fame.

Can anybody identify the airport? The control tower is a give away but I don’t recognize it.

okay so i may be crazy but the song in this video sounds exactly like an old sega video game song about a baby caveman that runs around and what not but i can’t for the life of me think of the game!! if anyone knows the name tell me please!

love the commercial and song
