Back in the ’90s, we saw Willie Nelson create a legendary song and commercial for Taco Bell’s brand new “Steak Burrito Supreme,” and he even did a Pizza Hut commercial with Johnny Cash himself.
Now the master of commercials himself, Shotgun Willie, is back in the commercial game again with a brand new environmentally friendly ad for FedEx.
In the commercial, FedEx is campaigning their goal to be carbon neutral by 2040, and featured Nelson’s hit song, “Always on My Mind.” At the end of the video, we see a FedEx robot speeding down the sidewalk, and the man himself sticks his head around the corner and says:
“I thought I’d seen it all.”
At the age of 88, it’s awesome to see the guy still kicking it with the best of ’em, still performing live music, and even contributing in commercials.
I still think we need to see another Willie Taco Bell commercial though, but hey that’s just me.
