Several years ago there was a John lewis ad where Ellie Goulding covered Elton John’s Your Song.
It’s now gone full circle and the 2018 ad features Elton singing his classic himself.
It’s called The Boy And The Piano and it hints that some gifts are more than just a gift and how the piano totally sculpted Elton’s life.
John Lewis also happens to be selling pianos alongside the ad, but many parents were shocked to see how pricey they were – with one costing £872.
It was all the internet could talk about for a while and Lidl even poked fun at it saying the store sells keyboard currently and they cost less than £872 (that’s how much some of them at John lewis are).
They shared a picture of a keyboard which said: “It’s a Lidl bit funny…”
Alongside this they wrote: “Just because you don’t have £872 to spend on a piano, doesn’t mean you can’t be the next Elton.”
John Lewis even replied with “It’s a Lidl bit cheaper” and shared a link to a £15 toy piano for babies on their website.
So, the moral of the story here is we can all be friends on the internet and also buy a piano whatever our budget is.
