1) Your city my city.. shoe city!

2) I can't remember it now.. tingling my senses..... commercial about financing I think (not Easterns) with Redskins players and what not...I think in the commercial they were running track or something. Wish I could remember.


Then there's this gem that only one other person I can find ever heard.. I'm not sure it was local but definitely targeted markets. It was on the radio (93.9/95.5 at the time) and was a Toyota Corolla commercial -- it was so terrible and funny.. it was supposed to be a jam. It went like:

"She likes my car... She likes my ride... Toyota Corolla (in a hushed tone)"

^ anyone remember this mofo or have a copy of it? It almost seemed racist.. it was very awkward but hilarious. I've Googled and can find no record or mention of it though.

Those Luna commercials are not from a local company. Luna started out in Chicago. They cut a deal with the Cubs to sponsor doubles hit at home games: Every time a Cub player doubled at Wrigley Field, the Luna jingle would play. Fans were not amused.

The "Kids for Less" jingle first came to my mind:

More, More, More--at Kids for Less,(kids for less!) you'll always save more

I always saw it mid-day during judge shows (Judge Mathis, etc).


Also, not even sure Gebco insurane is still around but there used to be ads with dancers shaking it to "Go Gebco!" repeated ad nauseum.

This thread just proves that the ad guys who created the jingles have earned every penny of their creative work:

you've remembered the jingle.

And while some will deride it and decry it, others will remember it and some may actually go to the store because of it.


Mission accomplished.

To weary war again. shall
You be called a Christian nation.
Jesus was the apostle of peace,
This nation speak the threatening
Language of war. You want to
Punish a nation for using
Chemical weapons. America you
Have used and still use chemical
Weapons, biological, nuclear,
And many other dangerous weapons
Against your people. It cannot
Be acceptible to say it is good
To kill if it makes money. Even
Considering reductions in auto
Emissions,count the bloodletting
Of thousands,due to these terrible
toxic pollutants. How many
Will be murdered this year- thousands-
Less than the Syrian government.
The mad rush of menacing corporate
Machines pouring into the water
And atmosphere chemicals that
Is certain to lead to polar ice
Caps melting away and a warmer
Planet-all kinds of mass destr
Uction. Ultimately will cause
The untimely end of the whole
Human race. The warmongers are
Undisturbed by this impending
Demise of humankind. I'll not
Be caught up in a sudden rush
Of political rage. America I
Believe you are about to lose
The backbone of your power...
No country have lasted as the
Most powerful for an eternity.
And so too with you
America, you are speeding up
The day of your doom.

Explain this one? This kars for kids jingle says you'll get a maximum tax deduction (obviously) then they say once again, you'll get a vacation voucher. So which one is it and why say once again when you never mention a voucher the 1st time?!? Sounds shady. Whoever wrote this must have been a kid that spells cars with a k.
