Hey, it's waters from the waters wake-up call our throwback Thursday topic today.

What was your favorite commercial jingle growing up?

Good morning, Mike.

Mike, Harry's from Dysart.

Hello.

How are you?

I am just splendid.

How are you today, sir?

Oh, I'm just I'm jingling all over the place jingle jingle

jingle.

Are you jingling?

Yeah

You will get too excited about jingling.

Oh, I can't help it.

I I get tingles when I jingle Yes, I'm taking medication for that.

You know what?

I don't think there's a jingle for that yet Although that brings up something of medications and jingles.

Why are they stealing all of our songs?

It's

just not right and so

many levels so many of

those

can't think for themselves Nope, they have to rip off our childhood and high school years

Is there also a Fleetwood Mac song on a commercial now too?

Sleeping pills, dreams.

Yeah, no, no, I don't think so.

I think Viagra don't stop.

Oh

my.

I

am quite talented.

Yes, you are.

You hit it out of the park.

Hey, you brought up maybe a week or two ago the Super Bowl commercials using classic songs.

Yes, I did.

And I found out why they do that.

You know what my theory was?

Yeah, what?

I thought maybe the theory behind it was because they're the only ones who still got money.

You know, that's not a bad thought, but it's not why.

I didn't think so.

You see, it's all about the brand awareness.

Companies know if they use a brand new song, it's not that familiar and won't grab their attention as quickly.

But if they use a classic song that's been around for a while, people will go, hey, I know that tune.

Then they download it.

And these companies then pay attention to the streaming numbers.

And if they go way up after their commercial starts airing, they know it's because of their ad.

And then when people listen to the song, it brings

brings them back to whatever product they were advertising.

The company basically uses this classic song as their jingle.

You know that all makes sense, really.

I like mine better, but that makes sense,

too.

I do, too.

That's the entertaining one.

This is the boring one.

How about the old armor?

What

kind of kids love armor?

Hot dogs, fat kids, skinny kids, but especially fat kids.

Yeah.

That's awesome.

Yeah, there you

go.

You'd have a commercial break.

That's great.

Yeah.

lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions, on the sesame seed bun.

And you still know all the ingredients.

Yes, I do.

To all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions, sesame seed bun.

You got it.

You know, it's funny.

You probably memorized that when you were a kid.

Absolutely.

You used to have a contest.

If you could say it within several seconds, then you'd get a free sandwich.

I don't remember that.

It's just funny how we memorize that as kids, and you never forget it.

You'll forget a million other things, but you don't forget to all beef patties.

of the

I'm

just

being

a dope.

That's one of my favorites as well.

I remember being a kid seeing that ad.

I don't know.

It's just a catchy jingle and the kid sitting at the end of the dock with the fishing pole.

Yep.

Yeah.

I loved it.

My all-time favorite, and I think they should bring it back every year, is the Coca-Cola, where they're all holding candles singing.

I'd like to see some world that's saying it's perfect harmony.

That is probably the best commercial ever.

I think so, too.

And I think they should bring it back to try and get people

harmony.

I know.

You're laughing at that, because it's like it's so unimaginable that that will happen at this point.

Things are so screwed up.

Exactly.

Yeah.

But you

know what could fix it?

What?

A

Coke.

Exactly.

But that's not the jingle we're talking about.

They use it for the commercialization of Christmas.

Okay,

well, you know what?

Your party can't come over to my party because your party breaks my party's rules.

Kind of sounds like politics these days, doesn't it?

We won't go into that too much.

The kids in the neighborhood, in my words, might be a little strong.

Plus, you never know

what people are gonna do if you put the sign that goes against somebody else's.

They think I'm a crazy old guy.

I don't think they mess with me.

Sounds like you're just getting crazier and older.

I'm friendly, though.

I wave at everybody that goes by my house.

Yeah, with

one finger?

No, no.

Full hand?

Full hand, yeah.

I pet all the dogs that walk by when I'm out there.

Full hand?

Full hand?

weekday mornings 530 to
