Commercial Jingles That Haunt You!

Over the years, we all have seen thousands of TV commercials and have heard the same amount of radio commercials. There are always a few that just stick in your head after you hear them. I have the song for Foxwoods Resort and Casino stuck in my head right now and it's very annoying!

Take a chance
Make it happen
Pop the cork
Fingers snapping
Spin the wheel
Round and Round we go
Life is good, life is sweet
Grab yourself a front row seat
Let’s meet and have a ball
Let’s live for the wonder of it all!!!!!


Foxwoods is a Native American casino located in beautiful Mashantucket, Connecticut within easy driving distance from four of the East Coast’s major cities, the casino’s commercial happily declares. The folks at Foxwoods have composed a jingle to convince gambling-starved New Englanders and Tri-State folks to take the perilous journey down the I-95 to Exit 92. It’s a jazzy little number sung by… well, not a Frank Sinatra impersonator exactly, more like a Frank Sinatra Jr. impersonator, if such a thing is possible.

What commercial jingle stays in your head for hours after you hear it????? Or perhaps one from your childhood?

"Here’s our jingle for Goldfish®
We wrote a song for Goldfish

The wholesome snack that smiles back
until you bite their heads off!

See the fishes swimming...
Oh look the pretzel’s winning...

Didn’t that make you feel good about Goldfish?

Here’s our Jingle for Goldfish
Crunchy little Goldfish

Oh good we’re at the part
Where we show that they’re baked and not fried

Did you know they’re made
with real cheese
Even though they look like fishies

The snack that smiles back Goldfish."

That song in the Vonage commercials never get sout of my head (woo hoo, woo hoo hoo! woo hoo, woo hoo hoo!)

PS - Have fun at Mellencamp - I am going on the 16th down the shore! Let me know how it is (although he always rocks).

Of course, I meant gets out rather than get sout, but you knew that, right?

from when I was little:

Nestle Crunch Bar:
Chocolate is scrumptious when it crunches.
That's why I love Nestle Crunch. That's why I love Nestle Crunch. Scrumptious.

I have to agree with TrueJerseyGirl. I love those comercials. They show people doing the dumbest things. LOL.

I'm so cheesy that I actually like the Foxwoods song. LOL.

What about the KitKat bar song? Give me a break, give me a break. Break me off a piece of that KitKat bar. :)

The "Gotta go, gotta go, gotta go right now" for whatever urinary malfunction stuff ad became a road trip theme song, because in a car full of girls (one of which has a bladder the size of a pea), we were ALWAYS stopping. Irritated the hell outta me.

The Six Flags "We Like to Party" song always gets stuck in my head. Yep... there it goes again.

I'm going with Oscar Meye as well though the "My baloney has a first name is O-S-C-A-R..."

And the Pull-ups "I'm a Big Kid Now" one

Sadly, the one that comes to mind is for the Clapper. I can still picture the old woman clapping to turn off those lights:

Clap on(CLAP CLAP)... Clap off(CLAP CLAP)... Clap on Clap off, THE CLAPPER!

DP and I prefer Mohegan Sun.

Jingles? How about:

I'd like to buy the world a home and furnish it with love,

Grow apple trees and honey bees, and snow white turtle doves.

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.

It's the real thing, Coke is what the world wants today.

Coca Cola, it's the real thing.

Are you feeling the love, brothers and sisters?

Nicole said...

I'd like to teach the world to sing, in perfect harmony. I'd like to buy the world a Coke, da da da da da daaaa.

Cmac, am I invited to your party?

Panthergirl said...

I am the JINGLE QUEEN.

Here are two that I torture my kids with:

"Ready when you are, and even when you aren't...that Betty Crocker Ready to Spread frosting!
Smooth and spreadable, and what's more incredible..
It's ready when you are and when you aren't!"

(why would you want it to be ready when you aren't??)

And...

OH you never would believe where those Keebler cookies come from
They're baked by little elves in a hollow tree
And what do you think makes those cookies uncommon?
They're baked in magic ovens and there's no factory!"

(I sing that one about 10 times faster than the original...I'm sick, I know.)

Sometimes you feel like a nut,
Sometimes you don't.
Alllllmond Joy's got nuts,
Mounds don't, because...
Sometimes you feel like a (insert commericial "popping sound" as Almond Joy piece disappears),
Sometimes you (same sound as Mounds disappears).
