Spotify No Waitress

This endearing and comedic advert for Spotify is built around a painfully relatable moment: a date that isn’t going well. The film follows a guy recounting an evening with a beautiful girl where, despite his best efforts, nothing he says or does seems to land. Conversation stalls, impressions fall flat, and the awkwardness quietly builds.

Everything changes when he makes one final decision — choosing the right song. In a single moment, music succeeds where words fail, cutting through the tension and transforming the atmosphere of the date. The shift is instant, emotional, and funny, capturing the universal truth that music can say what we often can’t.

Told with warmth and self-aware humour, the film celebrates the emotional power of music and its ability to connect people in unexpected ways. Simple, charming, and driven by a strong human insight, the advert delivers Spotify’s message with clarity, wit, and heart.
