Target @ the GRAMMYs
why don't you just
meet me in the middle?
Target wanted to show up at the 2018 GRAMMYs. So, we made a three-minute and 15-second music video for the Zedd and Maren Morris song, "The Middle,” a perfect anthem for Target’s signature optimism. We brought it all to life with the legendary Dave Meyers and veteran choreographer Hi-hat.
it's currently at 107 million views, and in 2019,
the track reappeared at the grammys
as a three-time nominee
“Many songs have topped both radio and streaming charts, but what really makes
"The Middle" a new model for pop hits is its omnipresent use in Target's spring ad campaign. (Note: It actually took me a minute to realize how "The Middle" pairs nicely with Target's logo.)” - Forbes
“Who ever the creative director was at the ad agency who commissioned ‘The Middle’? That version should get a Grammy.”
- NYT’s Popcast
I have heard this song at: every grocery store, urgent care, my eyebrow place, countless Ubers, my dreams, my nightmares, a t-shirt shop in San Diego.
