Jingles all the way

[Czarcasm]

What are some of your favorite commercial jingles?
Three of mine are rather dated:
Dinah Shore singing "See the USA in your Chevrolet.."

"Oh I'd love to be an Oscar Meyer Wiener.
That is what I'd truly like to be-e-e,
'Cause if I were an Oscar Meyer Wiener
Everone would be in love with me!"

The Rice Krispies jingle.

Added bonus: Rice Krispies tune by The Rolling Stones!

[Czarcasm]

Almost forgot the ultimate Coke commercial.

[Johnny L.A.]

Sparkletts Water with Leon the dog.

Congrats. I'm not normally surprised by something mentioned here, but you got me.

These are my favorites. 100 interwebs to anyone who can say what they have in common without looking it up.


"Get a bucket of chicken, finger lickin' good! have a barrel of fun"

"Like a Good Neighbor, State-Farm is there!"

"I am stuck on a band-aid 'cause a band-aid's stuck on me"

"It's the most original softdrink ever int he whole wide world. Doctor Pepper!"

"Join the Pepsi people, feelin' free feelin' free!"

"You deserve a break today, so get up and get away! To McDonald's!"

SPOILER:

These, among others, were all written by Barry Manilow

[Mr Downtown]

Your Wind Song stays on my, Wind Song stays on my, Wind Song stays on my mind.

[dropzone]

Mr Downtown, is there some reason you can't seem to forget her?

not favorite but among many memorable:

"Plop, plop, fizz, fizz"

Which also doubled their sales. (Snopes link for verification.)



No thread on commercial jingles is complete without mention of Nestle Alpine.

He only composed the State Farm and Band-Aid jingles. The rest he sang, but did not write.

[Tangent]

To the tune of "Good King Wenceslas":

Sprite makes brighter holidays
Limon is the reason
Sprite goes well so many ways
to bring good cheer this season.

[Gyrate]

I'm gonna throw this one out there for Americans who may not have seen it:

There's no real tune - the "jingle" is the rhythm and trust me, this is a serious earworm. I hope they paid the guy who wrote it a lot of money because he's probably the main reason the business is successful.

Simple and infectious. Aspiring jingle writers, please take note.

[Neidhart]

"I'm Sir Celery! I'm Miss Parsley! We are the Onion Twins! [some stuff I've forgotten] Tuna Twist makes tuna taste fresh as a garden!"

most memorable ad of 1982

[Ethilrist]

I'm actually rather fond of the other Rice Krispies jingle.

[Bayard]

I am incapable of cleaning my wood floors without hearing the Murphy's Oil Soap jingle in my head:

I've been using Murphy's Oil Soap
All through this house of mine
Now the dirt is finished
But the finish is fine!

[rowrrbazzle]

Lip-smackin', whip-crackin', paddy-whackin', etc., Cracker Jack! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwq_x9QsLzg

[Qadgop the Mercotan]

A local one:

"Ernie Von Schleidorn, Main Street in Menominee Falls!"

[Infovore]

"I can bring home the bacon,
Fry it up in the pan,
And never ever ever let you forget you're a man...
'cause I'm a woman...Enjoli!"

Didn't really like the commercial too much, but the jingle was catchy.

Never actually saw this commercial when it aired, but C. W. McCall (Bill Fries)'s "Old Home Bread" jingle got turned into one of his singles ("Old Home Fill'er Up and Keep on a Truckin' Cafe).

"Old Home is good buns!"

my favorite will probably always be...

meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow... meow!

And of course I had to sing along with that when I read it... and notice there weren't enough "meow"s there.

[SpoilerVirgin]

SPOILER:

I had the Barry Manilow Live album with all of his commercial jingles on it. I can still sing them all.

My favorites:

Pan Am, we fly the world the way the world wants to fly

American is getting into training, training the Amtrak way

I'd like to buy the world a Coke (which I somehow missed the first few times it was mentioned in this thread)

"Doctor Pepper, so misunderstood-"

[Maserschmidt]

Ooey, gooey, rich, and chewy inside
Golden cakey, tender flaky outside
Wrap the inside in the outside
Is it good? Darn tootin'!
It’s the big Fig Newton!
One more time!
It’s the big Fig Newton!
Here’s the tricky part
It’s the big Fig Newton!!!
