Mercenaries 2 is set to rock your world on August 31st, so EA has decided to release a commercial that reminds us all what Mercenaries 2 is about while entertaining us with a damn catchy tune.

If this commercial has taught me anything, it’s that I’ll be happy that I’m playing the side of the mercenary rather than the side of the people who hire the mercenary because I’d pretty much be in a lose/lose situation since I’m sure the mercenaries would charge an outrageous amount for their service.  Then, if I double cross them (as the woman in this commercial has), I could expect the mercenaries to retaliate in ways I wouldn’t dare imagine.

What am I talking about?  Who the hell would rather play the person who hires the mercenaries rather than play as them?  Why would you want to just sit around for hours, waiting for the mercenary to come back just to pay them?  Then what, would you just continue to order them around while you sit at your desk thinking of new ways to use the mercenaries?

In other words, great job Pandemic Studios for putting us in the shoes of the mercenary rather than the obviously boring, and mundane role of the person who hires the mercenary.

  3. StevenF says:

    Is it wrong that I laugh extra hard at the three part harmony of the third “Oh NOOOOO” or high note the singer hits at the end…? “I’m a mercenary, you ain’t got a prayer, you owe MEEEEE…”

    Beautiful.

    freakin EA

  9. blueno12001 says:

    I see that Im not the only one liking that catchy song. I looked for it also. I wondered was it made just for the commercial or is there a group that actually has this single out? I think it is funny and suttle and cool. I want it on my ipod also!

  10. MaryJane says:

    “Oh No You Didn’t is a song especially made for the commercial of the new Xbox 360 game called Mercenaries 2: World in Flames.”

  11. Vinnie K says:

    Yes, I too love this song. I MUST HAVE IT!!!

  12. Maclizard says:

    I swear up and down, and my wife agrees, that this melody is not original. Don’t get me wrong, I FREAKING LOVE THIS JINGLE, I just know that I have heard something similar before.

  13. Skippy says:

    I think I’ve heard something like it before also, Maclizard. But the song is fun, almost like making fun of a rap song, puting it to midwest-folk tunes, with explosions and mahem. I love it. :) OH NO YOU DIDN’T!!

  14. CHIVANATOR says:

    OK here it is I did my fair of searching for the song my self and I found it on the mercenaries 2 website ea.com I downloaded the song there is a link there to do so. It is only 30 seconds long though. also I have uploaded it to phonezoo.com and made it my ringtone so if you would like it also on your phone you may get it for free there.

  15. saltydawg says:

    There was a band in the early 90’s that remade a bunch of gangsta rap songs. I think this was one of them. Funny stuff. I’ve looked for an hour. A friend back then had this album. Who the hell is it? Anyone???

  16. saltydawg says:

    Maybe late 90’s actually.

    Someone has to know it!

  17. Adman says:

    Dynamite hack is a group that did a couple rap songs to pop beats. Dont know if that was them on the merc commercial but I know I’ve heard that melody before.

  18. Yustie! says:

    im wondering if the people who think they have heard this before are thinking of the Richard Cheese version of Get Down With The Sickness… thats what i think of when i heard this song… ps I LOVE THIS SONG!

  19. mextremist666 says:

    the tune sounds like Insane Clown Posse???? funny sh_t!

  20. Jingle says:

    CHIVANATOR

    what search terms do I use…

  21. Adisa says:

    Who is this group? I love everything about this commercial and I hate video games! I am tempted to buy a whole system just because of this game commercial. On of the best ever! Super Bowl quality!

  22. Angeloni87 says:

  27. Sarder says:

    to me it sounds like foreverDOWN….listen to their song C-Rap Medley and I think you’ll agree, and I believe they’re working on a new cd right now, could be a complete version of Oh No You Didn’t on there maybe (fingers crossed)

  28. candy says:

    The technoviking lives on!!!!

  29. Sndmn23 says:

    Salty: Ben Folds did sort of an acoustic version of “B*tches Aint Sh*t” by Dr. Dre. It’s classic!

  30. Camborg 80-Trey says:

    You guys are rediculous.

    That song is done by Insane Clown Posse.

    And no…they don’t make fun of rap. They actually make a serious attempt at it…and fail MISERABLY.

    Google the song title and the group and you guys should find it.

    Though I recommend jumping off a bridge headfirst first.

  31. JakReaver says:

    The song can be picked up on Limewire or just about any other place on the internet. It’s 2:53 long. Any longer or shorter and you’re not getting the right one.

    Also, The whole song is unbelievably funny.

    Here’s a verse: “First you tried to trap me then you bust a cap in my ass. Such humiliation will bring annihilation at last. It will be delicious when I get vicious tomorrow. There’s no second chances, you will do the dance of Sorrow.”

    Happy Listening! :twisted:

  32. BigEazy says:

    The artist of this track is “Chris Tilton”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    GREAT JAM!! LOL

  33. shawn says:

    The writer was Chris Tilton.

    You can get the download and his bio and credits at http://www.christitlton.com

  34. April says:

    You can go on mercs2.com and on the side where it says “Download the ‘Oh No You Didn’t’ MP3 Now!” click on the download button then on the side again right click where it says “GET THE .MP3 NOW” then click on “Save Link As” and it’ll save as a mp3 file. That’s how I got mine, and it worked.

  35. Laboxkey says:

    Hi,
    Just an interested fan, did some research and found “Oh no you didn’t” to be by The Trashman Band (at least from what I’ve found). Apparently they were hired to make the song for the commercial. You can probably find the whole song by going to google and performing a search of the name of the song. That is how I found it, the whole song, it’s great you’ll love it.

  36. Natalia says:

    i love this songgg ive been singing it all day for a week

  37. Mananana says:

    wanna mp3 oh dis man :lol:

  38. Gary says:

    Hey people this song is available directly from Pandemic Studios, the people who make Mercenaries 2 http://www.pandemicstudios.com/mercenaries/downloads.php If you have Safari as your web browser, then right click on the mp3 link and click Downlad Linked file. This downloads the full length version onto your computer. Internet Explorer 7 doesn’t have this feature though. i dont think, so you’ll have to get safari from Apple.Inc

  43. Chris Tilton says:

    I did not have anything to do with the song. The “Oh No You Didn’t” commercial was contracted by EA’s marketing department. The commercial was created by Shilo Design, and the song was written and performed by The Wojahn Brothers, a company that writes commercial jingles. Shilo Design credits The Wojahn Brothers on their site. – http://www.shilodesign.com/#/work/mercenaries/
