A friend and I actually started singing that on the morning train one day when this ad was still on TV. lol. Got a few laughs from people. =)

Who would ever have thought that you'd see Sheena Easton at Burnley Station.

One of the bidders for the desalination plant is Veolia Environment, They are a parent company of Connex , Look out Melbourne

i love sheena!!!!

Yes, it was filmed at Burnley.

Hillarious!

Absolutely FABULOUS - You have just got to Laugh at this one every time you see it

0:54 most connex commuters reaction to getting on a train

Memories :)

My Grandmas Friend Was On It The One With The Blonde Hair

@Marcus Bell ... actually Sheena is NOT known as a one hit wonder, she's had many other big hit's including the Bond theme "For Your Eyes Only" and "We've Got Tonight" (a duet with the superstar Kenny Rogers). The reason she screams in this add is very obvious. It's also a joke. A lot of people claim they can not stand catchy pop music, and this song itself. The tag line at the end says it all "Take the train. It's catchy".

Would have been a classic if it was filmed at East Richmond.

Well believe it or not, Connex current has the contract to operate the Los Angeles/Metro Commuter Express buses and it seems they're doing a pretty good job. I'll get back with you if the contract with them gets renewed or if it goes to someone else.

Connex is actually just in the city of Melbourne. Not the entire Australia.

I'm with her. I'd scream too if I know I'm listening to them sing the very song that made me famous ALL THE WAY TO MY DESTINATION!! Yep I'd scream too.

And now Connex is Veolia. :D

I was going to say it looked familiar!

Welcome to Melbourne :)

LMAO - I hope Connex is better in Oz than they were here in England!!!!

Awesome ad! Although I never get sick of the song myself! LOL :)

wow i forgot abnout this ad ..its so much quieter than the real traqin but just as packed ^^ lol from the city to lilydale is the WORST at 6pm and i mean the worst.

sheena screamed because there were no seats left

looks like burnley station

burnley station

Hmmm.. somehow I could not see this happening on the 17 minutes past from London Victoria to Littlehampton.. Maybe It was a good thing Connex lost the franchise to run our trains in England!

I think she screamed because that song became known as the song that was her career..... and she wanted to escape it, and yet there it was...

Notice the young gay person and the old gay person.

i never said that sheena easton was to blame for melbourne's public transport problems.what i'm saying is the money could've been spent on something worthwile ie more train services and better customer service.

Well, they're certainly the most visible. But then, Indians are showing up just about everywhere in Melbourne's inner city, not just on the trains. I don't think they are disproportionate on public transport. Though like anyone or any group that loudly speaks in a foreign language in public, they do get annoying.

maybe if u were from melbourne you would know what i'm talking about.

There's a difference between being a joyless old crank and a realist.If u had any idea whatsoever about how bad Melbourne's public transport is u wouldn't see the funny side to these commercials either.

yes, this is where our money is going. into crappy ads with a washed up 80's singer connex are laughing all the way to the bank
