Hey, I was just thinking about all of the great tv commercial jingles that arent aired anymore and thought it would be fun to relive them in a thread. So here goes nuthin...

"Take a stick pull it out! The taste is gonna move ya when you pop it in your mouth! ( I cant remember this part) It feels so soft it gets right to ya. (dont remember) The taste, the taste, the taste, is gonna move ya!" - Wrigley's Juicy Fruit chewing gum (1980s)


"Double double your enjoyment, double double your enlightment! No single gum double freshes your life like Double Doublemint Gum!" - Wrigley's Double Mint chewing gum

"Food folks and fun! You know the one McDonalds for food folks and fun!" - McDonalds (early 1990s)

"Creamy white, Alpine White! Nestle makes the very best N-E-S-T-L-E-S!" -Nestle Alpine Whte chocolate bar (1980s)

Lets see how many tv jingles that you can remember>

after these messages, we'll be right back! (little jingle before commercials ran during abc's saturday morning cartoons)

i feel like chicken tonight, like chicken tonight...chicken tonight! (chicken tonight dinner sauce-stuff from the late '80s/early '90s--i used to run to the teevee set everytime this came on and i'd flap my arms like the people in the commercial did)

Don't cook tonight, call chicken delight....

"My bologna has a first name
It's O-S-C-A-R
My bologna has a second name
It's M-A-Y-E-R
Oh I love to eat it every day
And if you ask me why I'll saaaayyy...
Cuz, Oscar Mayer has a way with B-O-L-O-G-N-A...
How's that?"

fitness...is feeee-ling great!--those one commercials for the president's council on fitness or somethin that came on in the '80s--arnold schwarzenegger was on one of 'em: "and if you're still not convinced...i'll be back!"

c'mon everybody, do that kick...america's favorite health kick (milk!)--'80s milk commercial

make your dog a lucky dog todaaaaay!--lucky dog dog food

a-e...we bring goodness home to yooooou...--anderson-erickson dairy jingle--a-e is the local dairy in my hometown, des moines, iowa

Or Rodney Allen Rippy's...

Pack up the kids, crank up the car
To Jack in the Box
Come as you want, come as you are
To Jack in the Box
Make life a little easier
Take life, a little easier...

Or Ray Charles'...

Uh huh, Uh huh, You got the right one babaaay...
Uh huh, Uh huh, Diet Pepsi...

Puppy tacos!?!?

The boy in my avvie finds that offensive...

TheFrog said:

That surely is the all-time classic along with R. White's Lemonade.
One of my obscure favourites was Cilla Black's "Cadbury's Dairy Milk" ad in the 70's with the following lyrics,
You've got to give a little grin when you bite right in to a Cadbury's Dairy Milk,
Put a chunk in your cheek coz life is oh so sweet with a Cadbury's Dair..... you get the picture!

MrTation said:

and what kinna name for a fast food joint is "pup n'taco"? i'd be kinna leery of eatin there...

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

Strangely, I've not heard of it in over 20 years... I think now it's Del Taco.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

Even at a young age, I found that jingle to be a little kinky!
