I was just half-paying attention to the TV and heard this gem from a new commercial for Goldfish: “The wholesome snack That smiles back Until you bite their heads off.” I’m still laughing over this. Had to share. ---

I don’t know if it counts as jingle, but the best song lyrics I’ve heard in a comercial are from a German commercial for a clynic that teaches people other languages. It has a family consisting of a father, mother, and two little girls rocking out to a dinky techno beat and the words: “I wanna fuck you in the ass.” Aside from that, there’s an animated public service announcement about getting your cats neutored that’s just really cute: "There’s too many kitties in the city, There’s too many cats in the alleyway They’re on the street with nothing to eat, and they’ve got no place to stay. There’s too many kitties in the city, there’s none too few in the country too They’re giving birth all over Earth but there’s something you can do. Get em neutored, get em spayed, Take em to the vet, to the vet and get em set, It’s better for the world and it’s better for your pt Get em neutored, get em spayed"…repeats till black out ---

In the late 60s-early 70s The Coca-Cola company produced a very Woodstock-esque jingle with a lot of flower children picked from nations all over the world: "I’d like to teach the world to sing, Something-something love, I’d like to by the world a Coke, and snow-white turtle doves (???) Anyway… The jingle was reworded and released as a charted single. ---

“I’d like to teach the world to sing In perfect harmony. I’d like to buy the world a Coke And keep it company.” Great jingles get remembered forever, and add to our lexicon and/or daily vocabulary. McDonalds managed it with the “You deserve a break today…” commercials, and Burger King responded with the “Have it your way” commercials. And, of course, it wasn’t a jingle, but “Where’s the beef!!?” will always be a part of society.
