Wow...just....omg....
I laughed at that! I don't watch TV, so I tend to miss these sort of things... =/ As for old TV Jingles, I agree that they need to come back....=P |

OK, that jingle got stuck in my head this morning, and I can't for the life of me remember why. I know I must have been thinking about something related. |

 Poor Barry Manilow....
But this commercial is hilarious! |

You know, I've thought about that and my thought is that the ad companies' market research probably showed that the public prefers already recognizable orchestrations and probably thinks jingles are corny.
That's how it seems to me since we don't really have musicals, as he knew them, any more. People don't just break into song while in conversation with someone. Musical numbers these days tend to be dream sequences (Chicago, etc) or the characters are performing on a stage, so it doesn't seem as spontaneous or implausible, as some people put it. Even then in cases like Glee or Rock of Ages there aren't any original songs either, they're covering already well-known songs. |

Originally posted by Elara Yeah, it seems like it's intentionally cheesy. But then again, we don't really have many jingles these days since ad companies would rather just trade off an already well-known song. |

Yes it is... the song, however, sucks. |

This has really been getting around, and honestly that kid's face is fucking priceless.
