An introductory ad for Sprint plan “Framily " which allows you to add members from outside the family to a family plan, small sample girl named Heidi singing a beautiful version of "Home Sweet Home" by Mötley Crüe in French. Check it out below.


Besides promoting the plan, the campaign “positions Sprint as a cultural leader who recognizes the changing social dynamics of American families today," said a representative of the agency.

"The American family has changed our families today are more of our family, but also our friends, our neighbors - . Basically all the people we love, “Sprint CMO Jeff Hallock, said in a statement.” So we created a product to give the new American family flexibility and value they need a wireless plan, brought to life through the Frobinsons.

Our campaign recognizes that we all have families that are unique personalities interesting. 's a fun, lively look at a group to go through life as one big happy Framily “.

“The Frobinsons are a typical American family. They are a strange mix of people who deeply care for each other and we wanted to create a group of characters that are familiar and very unique at the same time," adds Mark Figliulo of Figliulo and Partners, which created the place.

“We know that people are happier when they are connected to people and things that are more interested that's why everything we do end up in the beginning. Merry Connecting. "

During an episode of 2012 “Sixx Sense”, the national radio program hosted by Mötley Crüe / Sixx: AM bassist Nikki Sixx, Nikki revealed the "secret origin" behind the song Crue "Home Sweet Home" .

Nikki said. "Our record label back in the day company , Elektra Records , which became [ CRUE 1983 album ] ' Shout At The Devil ' in and rejected the album they said they do not like , did not sound like [ 1981 ]" Too Fast For Love ' , change the logo , we changed our appearance. So I said, ' Okay. Then we'll go to another record company.

“So [Elektra] shut [after all], and sold four million copies. Elektra was about to go bankrupt at the time, and saved his ass. And then when we got our next record [' Theatre of Pain ' 1985] delivered with ' Home Sweet Home ' on it, they rejected that album they said. . “This is horrible, and you have to take that song off the record you are not a band ballad. So we did the same.

“We were always at war with the record company, but we never really believed in us.

“And so we went with” Smokin 'In the Boys Room ' [as the first single from ' Theatre '], and we blew that album. And then we wanted to launch 'Home Sweet Home' [as the next single and video], and [the label] said, 'No way. No way. “So they financed, filmed the video ourselves, went on MTV and the rest is history.

“But that song [‘Home Sweet Home’] was never a hit single. Never worked in radio, I never promoted the song, and if not for back when MTV used to play videos, that song wouldn’t be the song it is today. species But that song as our ' Dream on' [ AEROSMITH ] or our ' Stairway To Heaven' [ LED ZEPPELIN ] , right? ! ... ‘Dream on' was not a hit single [either] .

"It's interesting how a song resonates with the public, but certainly not always resonates with business people. Things like Aerosmith are come, and go, “Oh, this is their first album. You do not want to have a ballad on it ‘. But that was the song - that was the jewel of that first album AEROSMITH 'Home Sweet Home' is such a gem in our career , like ' Stairway To Heaven' is [ LED ZEPPELIN ]

 And a lot of bands that have . . kind of song that really connects with people , not what they usually do , which is , perhaps, in our case , we are a rock band and that something was a little left of center . "

"Home Sweet Home" reached number 89 in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. The song ranked No. 12 in the letter of the greatest ballads of all time VH1.

"I remember like it was yesterday," said the singer of Motley Crue Vince Neil about writing the song, “sitting in the recording studio when Tommy [Lee, drummer for Motley] came up with the piano chords and I almost immediately began to hum.”

"American Idol" star Carrie Underwood performed her version of "Home Sweet Home" for the 2009 season of the popular television talent.

Girls Girls Girls Keep Motley Crue's Tunes Fresh

Motley Crue tribute band Girls Girls Girls bring their music tonight Jergel in Warrendale .Share with others:0inShareBy Dan Majors / The Pittsburgh PressAs the iconic glam band Motley Crue 80 said in his song " Kickstart My Heart" , "When we started this band all we needed , needed was a laugh . "Years passed , and the Crue is still ongoing . The boys will be back in Burgettstown as part of his farewell tour August 13.But tonight, we have girls. And it's still fun.
Girls Girls Girls
The tribute band Motley Crue -female New York - back to Pittsburgh tonight for a show at the Rhythm Jergel Grille in Warrendale, playing all the hard-hitting , heavy metal hedonistic Crue became famous.
You may want to adjust the beer goggles the first time you see them on stage. Vixen vocalist Neil ferocious screaming vocals, shredding guitar Mercedes Mars , Lucky strike Sixx on bass, and Lee Tawny Tearing up the drums - the sound is dead on . And with her long hair , black leather boots , ripped shirts and chains, the look is ... disturbing hypnotic.The band was founded in 2007 by the original bassist Patricia  

" Nikita Sixx " Nilsen , who is still involved in the management of the group." Drummer , Tawny and Patty met at a camp rock ladies ," Mercedes said. " Neither of us had ever played the instrument in his life. Tawny was a pianist, but had never touched a thigh. Nikita had never touched a bass. But Patty had this dream of forming an all- girl Motley Crue ."Mercedes, a native of New York, had been in a punk band called stimulants and was doing some recordings with other artists." But nothing was getting any traction ," he said . " 

I saw an ad that Girls Girls Girls had taken , and they were all done up like Motley Crue with chains and nails and big hair , and I was like , 'Oh, these girls look great ! Have to give them a call . ' and that's how I got into the band. Vixen Then he found the singer through MySpace. She's from the Midwest and had been in a ska band and had experience singing . 


" We started playing in 2007 , and the band took off like a rocket from our first show. When we started doing this, there really was not a lot of tribute bands , and certainly very few tribute bands women. So we were a little more of a novelty then. but there was a great response to what we were doing , it has much to do with music , but the characters that are in this band too. really was just great, fun rock . , I'm sure that happens a lot in clubs anyway, but for some reason I really did capture the attention of people . started getting a lot of show offers ". 

But in 2009 , Ms. Nilsen had her second child and the band took a break , leaving its members to explore other companies.A demonstration of the 2012 meeting , however , proved to be too much fun to put the project on the shelf , and Lucky was brought Sixx on bass." Is punk rock metal", Mercedes said. " But we do it our way. We remain true to the song, in spirit and feeling and heart , but occasionally we will put our own spin on it . And I think that's what makes it interesting because it's not just memory . must have an original love thing going on when you are. 's fun and everyone gets to have a great time . they dress . you know, it's a party . 

"We have managed to make a name for ourselves and people definitely come to the concerts. Really not going for the big tours. We travel weekends , maybe three or five days. Probably we could be on the way, but not is our intention. Such bands that go on the road , they are selling something, you are promoting an album. 're not selling it. we are a tribute band . we are selling a live show . So we have to be out there spinning for months at a time trying to move the t-shirts and records. " 

The girl thing may have started as a gimmick, but his serious approach to the music - and the show - sets them apart from other tribute bands ." When people come to see musicians , there are a barometer ," Mercedes said. "They're like , 'Hey , that person can really play. " And if you're doing well , they respect that , because they know the music and if you do it the right way , the way they want to hear it, which is very appreciated. It is much harder to start some original product. It is difficult to get out there.

 "That could be one reason so many people are making tribute bands , because they think it is a door entry easier . And the fans love it. 're Bowing , crazy. We have never been accepted me by fans diehard Crue found in every city we play in. These people who have followed them since the early 80s are like , ' God , this is fantastic ! ' Cause we're not afraid to do it our way . though it is within the structure of the band , we're not trying to be them. authenticity that project carries a long way. we're doing it because we love it and it's good music. "And while they are playing the music of another group, there is still something in it for them ."This is a great outlet for our creativity ," he said . " There are a lot of texture. This still needs work. Though we know it, to make it big as possible , you're always working on it. We do not just hit 20 songs, ' Here , we have finished. " We do not do that. Really treat them with respect . " 

OK , so the fans love . But what about the artists ?" I do not know what to think of their original bands tribute bands . Maybe like maybe resent ," Mercedes said. "I dunno , I've never talked to one of those artists . But I think tribute bands keep the music out there and keep people interested in it. "

 You can experience this night of Jergel , 103 Slade Lane (or 285 Northgate Drive in your GPS) in Warrendale . Doors open at 6 and the show starts at 8. Tickets are $ 22.
