This ad is simply stunning. The people who made it have managed to link together some of the most iconic paintings in a beautiful little ‘story’.
This can be a great warm-up to a lesson on ‘Art’. Students can be asked to describe what they saw and then, as a follow-up, they can try to find out some information about the various paintings and their creators.

Simply amazing!!! :-) The woman on the left is 29 – the woman on the right is supposed to be the same one at 31. And what a HUGE difference two years make…
Watch the brilliant Garfunkel and Oates give us the stereotypical perspective of a woman at these two (oh so different) stages of her life. Excellent language and a fantastic springboard for all sorts of role-plays, debates, stereotype dissection etc. etc. – the possibilities are endless!

LYRICS
For the first time in my life, I see it clearly
I realize the power of being a woman.
Twenty nine years old and time’s on my side.
Im in my prime, Ive hit my stride
I got so much charisma, and so many options
Its nice to always have my pick
Theres nobody left, Im all alone
Im at the top of my game, possibilities are endless,
and I just feel really pretty
Im holding out for someone who meets my standards,
wont settle for anything less than perfect
I know what I want and I can have it,
Im surrounded by love and peace
Theres nobody left, Im all alone
Why did I wait, whats wrong with me?
In two short years, Im gonna be 33
Who the hell who want me then,
my ovaries are shrinking
Im disgusting and everyone feels bad for me
And I never get invited to dinner party anymore
Thing unfolds when theyre supposed to,
cause everything happens for a reason
It’ll happen for me when Im not even looking,
hell just appear and Ill just know
And hell love me forever without any work,
who needs to try when things are meant to be
Theres nobody left, Im all alone
[…….] ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Cause life is good/over")
