If you blast Neil Diamond’s iconic tune “Sweet Caroline” in just about any bar, sporting event or college party, you’re likely to spark an impromptu, high-spirited sing-along, regardless of the audience.

Now, a health insurer out of New Zealand is turning the song into a touching analogy about the healing power of community.

New Zealand’s Southern Cross Health Insurance and TBWA\New Zealand launched a new addition to the brand’s “With You” platform titled “Sweet Caroline,” a 90-second spot anchored by the enduring tune.
