Sheer Energy legs"

Which also reminds me, wasn't there a Teddy Grahams commercial that used Elvis's "Teddy Bear"?

jaymc, Thursday, 23 August 2007 21:02 (eighteen years ago)

Let's do Outback tonight

From my childhood--

Chunky's back even thicker than before
Hey la hey la, Chunky's back!
With nuts and raisins and chocolate galore
Hey la hey la, Chunky's back
Oh, what a mouthful there to chew
Aaaand it even tastes much better too
Hey la, hey la, Chunky's back

I don't think this product exists anymore?

I've seen occasional Chunkies in random convenience stores.

I Heard It Through the Grapevine. Don't think they changed the lyrics, but I've never heard this song without thinking of skankin' raisins.

It's a Wicke's houuuse!

In 2005, Kraft Foods used EMF's "Unbelievable" in their Kraft Crumbles advertisement campaign. The surviving members of EMF reconvened to re-record the tune. The original song's chorus, "It's unbelievable," was replaced with a more "crumble-centric" chorus, declaring "It's crumbelievable."

OH

pizza in the morning
pizza in the evening
pizza at suppertime

ghost rider, Thursday, 23 August 2007 22:45 (eighteen years ago)

When pizza's on a bagel, you can eat pizza anytime!

I've never heard the McGuire Sisters song though.

"Hey good lookin'
What you got cookin'
How's about cookin' something up with CHEESE?"

Also:

"Love me tender
Love me true
Feed me tender chunks"

"I can bring home the bacon (ENJOLI!)/fry it up in a pan (ENJOLI!)/and never ever let you forget you're a man...'cause I'm a woooo-man (ENJOLI!)"

Oreo Big Stuff OTM.

jaymc, Friday, 24 August 2007 04:38 (eighteen years ago)

at the same time "they're crumble-lievable" was going on, there was a local (?) commercial going "you're unfinanceable." it was torture for a while there.

Wouldn't it be nice if the world were Cadbury?
You could surf inside a chocolate tube
Ride your board across the wave forever
Get wiped out and never get a bruise
And if a shark came up and tried to bite you
You could say 'I'm chocolate - I invite you'
Wouldn't it be nice?

badg, Friday, 24 August 2007 05:59 (eighteen years ago)

Want to hear something godawful? WHIP IT came on that nifty RetroActive digital cable new wave radio thing and the only thing I could think of was Swiffer. I wanted to shoot something!

Stevie D, Friday, 24 August 2007 06:00 (eighteen years ago)

(to the tune of "The Israelites") "Oooo-ooooh Vitalite"

Justin's "I'm Lovin' It" is more or less unlistenable to me.

Noodle Vague, Friday, 24 August 2007 06:54 (eighteen years ago)

They call me Caramello.... Koala

"Hey good lookin'
What you got cookin'
How's about cookin' something up with CHEESE?"

Really? This sounds like the most awesome thing ever.

"I use .. blue minty gel
Mum and dad use it as well..
OH WHAT TIMES WE HAD!! BUT AT THE TIME IT SEEMED SO BAD...."

Mark G, Friday, 24 August 2007 09:13 (eighteen years ago)

Oh god those Cadbury ads to "wouldn't it be nice" annoy the buggery out of me.

Trayce, Friday, 24 August 2007 09:24 (eighteen years ago)

And we had a similar one to that "pizza in the morning/pizza in the evening" but it was:

Salada in the morning
Salada in the evening
Salada at suppertime
You can enjoy Salada
Just about any time!

raaargh *tears out internal ears*

Trayce, Friday, 24 August 2007 09:25 (eighteen years ago)

That's the way we crunch crunch crunch

"I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing"

Pleasant Plains, Friday, 24 August 2007 23:55 (eighteen years ago)

two months pass...

This morning I found myself singing Kool and the Gang's "Celebration"...except I didn't sing those lyrics. Instead I was singing "Crispy Nuggets", the Wendy's ad version of the song.
