Old advertising jingles remembered


Antlion

Recommended Posts

Anyone recall (or get haunted by) infuriating advertising jingles of yore, from radio and/or TV?

Rounding out the soundtrack to my nightmares are:

“DA-nish bacon, DA-nish bacon, yummy-yummy-yummy-yummy-yummy-yummy YUM!”

”If it’s in vogue, it’s in VOOOOGUE!”

”Di-di-di-dijonnaise-naise-naise”

”FORREST FUR-NI-SHING, get in to FORRRR-eeeest!”

It’s inexplicable that I can remember the full lyrics of this one, but the (equally inexplicably named) milkshake “Shaky Jake” had an ad that went:

”He’s Shaky Jake

wibble wobble wibble wum

he’s a real milkshake

wibble wobble yum yum

with fresh whole milk

and [something something]

he’s good for a change

ooohhh, ‘ow very straaaange.”

(I remember clearly the last line being delivered in a nasally Kenneth Williams impersonation, because 90s kids were all about dead comedians, apparently.)

Dum, dum, dum, Radio Clyde sparkling bright, with sounds of music reaching far and wide,
just tune to 261 and there you’ll find, sparkling Radio Clyde.

Branded into my brain somehow as a jingle played during the Dave Marshall breakfast show.

Ha ha, that reminds me.

You're a winner, and you can't lose, coz you're listening to Radio Tay, from Friockheim to Forfar, we're taking care of you, listen to your radio, listen to your radio-ow-ow.
