It's not really a jingle but I always loved the old Alka-Seltzer commercials where they would say, "I can't believe I ate the whole thing."

"Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't....

click on the link and scroll down toward the bottom. You can hear some of the jingles. LOL - brought back memories. Kids would always play during the show, and then stop during the commercials to sing along..

I was impressed by Microsoft's use of the Dies Irae (http://www.carolinaclassical.com/articles/mozartrequiemdi.html) from Mozart's Requiem as background music for IE3:

"confutatis maledictis, flammis acribus addictis..."

Loosely translated, that's

"the damned are confounded, and consigned to sharp flames..."

... as the "Where Do You Want to Go Today? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dies_irae#The_Poem)" slogan splashed across the foreground. Straight to hell, apparently. :roflmao:

McDonald's "Big Mac" jingle:

"Two all-beef patties
Special Sauce
Lettuce, cheese
Pickles, onions
on a sesame seed bun"

Emz, did I get it right? :p

Came up with a couple more:

~ "Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet. Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet. They go together in the good old USA: baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet."

And of course my little furball got me to thinking of a couple others:

Meow Mix jingle: "Meow, meow, meow, meow. Meow, meow, meow, meow. Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow. ............... " you get the idea. :D

Purina Cat Chow: "Purina Cat Chow, chow, chow, chow."
