That 70's Cooking - Jingles

When I started laying out my 70's theme, I wanted to make sure that I included a post on commercials.  The original plan was to upload videos so that I could have Mikey, Mr Whipple, and Madge the manicurist hawking their wares in living colour.  But I still have not yet figured out how to add video.

While I was looking for an alternative, I came across a website that listed the "30 most influential jingles since 1948."  Of those 30 jingles, 33 if you count the honourable mentions, 12 were from the 1970's.  Jingles from the 1970's also accounted for 6 of the top 10.

Here are the 12 most influential jingles of the 1970's.  Do you remember whose they were.  Keep track and I will post the answers tomorrow.

(2)   Plop plop, fizz fizz, oh what a relief it is.

(3)   Like a good neighbour, State Farm is there.

(6)   For all you do, this Bud’s for you.

(8)   It’s the real thing.

(9)   Ace is the place with the helpful hardware man.

(10) You deserve a break today.

(12) I’d like to teach the world to sing…

(14) Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions, on a sesame seed bun.

(18) I’m a pepper, he’s a pepper, she’s a pepper…

(21) Nobody doesn’t like Sara Lee.

(27) Here’s to good friends.

Honourable Mention
Meow, meow, meow, meow…
