Puzzling notice on TV

It's a gerneralised advert, not a specific one.

 

A straw ad ?

You probably remember some Toyota ads too.
Maybe even the BASF cassette ad.
Chesdale, Bluebird Chips, Dishwashing Liquid Marge. Yellow Pages Telecom
Spot. Vapodrops.
Just an arty load of rubbish

 

Bugger

 

What is there to say if you are advertising Heinekin or Stella

 

Thank you. There is a good tune there. The picture at the end looks rather
like Milford Sound.

That is interesting, as an experiment, but I doubt if it would catch on with
the general public.

I prefer the Pearl Fishers though.
I don't really care for modern music, it may be very clever but I like
something with a good tune that can be sung or whistled.
The songs of the 30s and 40s were much better for that than modern pop songs
There used to be a song played on radio "The Runaway train came down the
track and she blew".
"The Chattanooga Choochoo" is a good one, and "The Atchison Topeka and the
Santa Fe".
It's surprising how many American songs there are about trains.

I'll catch up with some of the other items on those youtube menus tomorrow.
Thank you

 

The Dear John one? That was a great ad.
And wasn't it Toyota that did the Bugger ads?

I liked the Chesdale one.
I remember the Spot ads, but don't remember any music with them.
And wasn't there a Coca cola ad with music?
And "Broke my denture" to Clementine. I heard that the other day remade for
a Dolls' hospital.
And the Pepsodent ad "You'll wonder where the yellow went" etc.

 

"Beer, beer, glorious beer" would be a good song for advertising those.

 

They could mention a new feature in 30 seconds.
I remember when ABS braking came out. And one for a car with electric
windows where a little flower girl puts a teddy bear in the window.
I worked in advertising in the 1960s. It seems to have changed a lot, it was
mainly print or radio in those days.
These days they don't seem to show the price in most ads.

 

"Destroys braincells with every glass."
"Tastes and smells digusting."
"Over-priced putrid water."

;-)

 

Yep, that's right, joking means you're "joyless". :-\

Yes, personally I detest the smell and taste of alcohol, but see the
winking smiley, that's means I was joking. Geez there's some humourless
dweebs on newsgroups who take everything 150% seriously. :-(

 

Not sure about Heineken, but if you're selling Stella, then censoring
what other people are saying seems to be a priority:

Looks like another humourless, pedantic moron is wanting to be in my
killfile. :-\

 

Runaway runaway !
He's got a ruddy killfile !!!!!!!
