I'd seen the commercial for years in Miami and kinda had that same feeling. "yeah... right... friendly people on bicycles... give me a break." The song was catchy in that annoying (make fun of it) sort of way.
Luckily we had a friend who'd moved here years earlier and decided to give it a look. One visit and we bought a house.
The song doesn't annoy me anymore. What does is every politician who shows up and says "It's a beautiful day in the Villages..." then looks around with a big smile waiting for the applause... now that's corny.
