You may hate them, but I'm sure you've caught yourself singing one of them at least once.

I've only seen #2, 3, 4, but I think the Singing restaurant is the best. The Fair is not too bad either, relatively speaking.

MOTHERFUCKER!!!
The Pirate one. I sing little bits "A man should always dress for the job he wants.. So why am I dressed up like a Pirate in this restaurant? It's all because some hacker, stole my identity.. So now I'm in here every evening servin' chowder and iced tea!"
That thing got pounded into my head. Dream Girl one a little bit, the others weren't as catchy to me.

These commercials suck. And it's not a "free" credit report, you have to singn up for some monthly bullshit in order to get a "free" credit report. If you want a free credit report call one of the reporting agencies and you can get a free one every 6 months.
You may hate them, but I'm sure you've caught yourself singing one of them at least once.
All i can say is that it get stuck in my head, but i have never sang them at all, or does the constant repetition in my head count as singing.

Yes, the constant repetition counts.

"shopping for a new car" was hilarious and very catchy...I always sang along with it when it came on but it hasn't come on TV for awhile. the restaurant pirate won was funny as well.

I read this article months ago, but still love the commericals.
In fact, Baby-faced Everyman’s sweet folk rock voice — one that would fit perfectly opening for Superchunk in Chapel Hill, NC sometime in 1992 or narrating a “School House Rock” lesson — isn’t even his voice. Because, get this. Dude isn’t even American. Talk about identity theft!
Baby-faced Everyman is played with heartbreaking adorability by French Canadian actor Eric Violette (http://www.ericviolette.com/) — who is also a skilled singer and musician. So while the 27-year-old isn’t faking the guitar he’s playing on camera, he certainly doesn’t sound like that.
Now that you know that, check him out. Violette looks totally different, right? Suddenly he’s Hot Foreign Guy, right? (And ladies, he's single!) Meanwhile, upon gaining this information, a co-worker claimed he could see Eric lip syncing with a French accent, which is totally not true. The guy — and the commercials — are just that good.
In a recent road trip down the East Coast of the United States, Violette learned just how effective his acting is. “People wanted to take pictures with me,” he says in a telephone interview from his home just outside Montreal — where nobody recognizes him except his friends and family. (The commercials don’t air in Canada.) “It’s very strange but very funny. When some people recognized me, they’d have a big smile on their face.”

the ren faire and when you're a rock star are the least shitty. but the ren faire falls apart at the end.
