Zales Valentine’s Day “Heart of Gold” Ad (Proposed)

In this proposed Valentine's Day ad for Zales, a clip from the song "Heart of Gold" by Neil Young plays, and after we hear him sing "...keeps me searching for a heart of gold", the announcer says: "Have you found the heart of gold you've been searching for? Then show her how much she means to you this Valentine's Day with the "Heart of Gold" pendant from Zales!" (And the video shows a thirty-something couple coming home from work and greeting each other, with the man giving his lovely wife the "Heart of Gold" pendant and her kissing him and hugging him, with a tear in her eye; and then in a reverse shot, we see a tear in his eye, too.)

(And then the announcer could say: "And if you don't get her this pendant from Zales this Valentine's Day, then you obviously don't appreciate her enough, and she should divorce you immediately." {Just kidding.})

This is Neil Young’s “Heart of Gold”, for those who are unfamiliar:
