Kenny Loggins’ “I’m Alright will be used as the soundtrack for new Caddyshack inspired Super Bowl advertisements. With one clip recreating a scene where groundskeeper Carl Spackler ( played by Tony Tomo in the ad) gives a play by play of his golf swing saying, “The crowd is deadly silent, Young Cinderella story happening right in front of our eyes. Former quarterback about to become tournament champion.”
In total there are three ads to watch featuring the track which was used as Caddyshack’s theme in 1980. The track also reached number seven on the Billboard Hot 100. Loggins later recalled that, “I was thinking this character has all these people telling him what to do, And so as the songwriter, I sort of stick in my opinion too. While you’re listening to everybody else, listen to this. Listen to your heart. And that becomes the theme that runs through the movie. Who the f-ck are you and what do you believe? You take this silly comedy and you lift it up a notch. Why is this character likable and why do you give a sh-t? His redeeming quality is, sooner or later, he gets in touch with who he is.”
