John Lewis Christmas ad has people ‘bawling their eyes out’
It might have been out just in time for breakfast, but that hasn’t stopped fans from getting emotional about the Xmas advert. Plenty have shared that it had them in tears, despite the early release.
Responding to the ad on John Lewis’ official Instagram fans raved about it. One wrote: “Love it! Once again a complete triumph!.”
Sharing their personal connection to the advert, a person added: “Love it! I met my husband on the dancefloor of the place where this ad was filmed (The Fridge, now the Electric Brixton). Probably dancing to this song back in the ‘90s. I’d like to think our dancing was better than as featured in the ad!”
One echoed: “A bit of uplifting joy at Xmas? Great thumping music track, 90s nostalgia (Fridge clubbing vibes), and a tear-jerking Father-Son narrative....Xmas is beginning. Love Alison Limerick - Xmas number 1?”
A fan added: “Tears for breakfast it is! Love it!” While one said: “In tears again. I love it, such a great message.”
Another wrote: “Wasn't expecting to be balling my eyes out over breakfast, albeit kids back to school today.”
