Friday I’m in Love

Happy Friday and Happy Holidays.

As the holidays are one of the craziest times of the year, Koodo wanted to spread a little happy. In what’s being called a “Random Act of Happy,” that builds upon Koodo’s “Choose Happy” brand platform, the brand got 98 members of Choir!Choir!Choir! to perform The Cure’s “Friday I’m in Love” at the Christmas Market in Toronto’s historic Distillery District.

They also put up three word garlands with “FA LA LA LA LA (LA LA LA LA)”, “WARM THOUGHTS PEOPLE” and everyone’s favourite, “MISTLETOE”. Images are posted below.

Robert Smith, the lead singer of The Cure, loved the arrangement so much that he’s donating the licensing fees to the charity of the choir’s choice — sponsoring Syrian families in need who are coming to Canada. How awesome is that?

Agency is Camp Jefferson. Read more about the “Choose Happy” brand platform here.
