Boyz II Men Sing Nostalgic (But New!) Life Into Geico's 'It's What You Do'

Far from the end of the road

After its reinvigoration some years ago, Geico is again breathing freshness into its “It’s What You Do” campaign … using a blast from the past. (When you think they’ll zag, they zig!)

In “Side Effects,” launching today, a woman at a pharmacy gets the run-down of her medication’s side-effects in the smoothest way possible—from ’90s R&B band Boyz II Men. These boys won’t just make old-school, sweater-ensconced love to you; they also make chronic flatulence sound positively romantic.

The idea is that if you’ve got bad news to share, these are the guys to call.
