Of all the years of television and radio, there have been probably millions of commercials. And throughout the years, those commercials, at least a few, have had such catchy jingles and or slogans associated with them that I find myself remembering and still able to sing them!! I'm sure there are more than just what I list, perhaps I will get some assistance with others during the day with more to list as the comments will show!
I can think of a few.
For instance Alka Seltzer™ (video commercial below)
"Plop, Plop, Fizz, Fizz, oh what a relief it is"!
"Calgon™, take me away"!!
"I am stuck on Band Aids™ cause Band Aids stuck on me"!
One I often use still today, "Thank you for your support" from Bartles and Jaymes™
"I've fallen... and I can't get up!" from MedAlert™ beepers
Wendy's™ "Where's the beef?"
I continually flip my forehead when forgetting something, along the lines of "I coulda had a V-8" from the V-8™ juice commercials
"Silly rabbit" ...Trix are for kids with the cereal, Trix™
The ever lovin' jingle:
"Oh I wish I were an Oscar Meyer Wiener™"....everyone would be in love with me!!
Another jingle that has a 'catchy' tune:
"I like bread and butter, I like toast and Jam. I like the taste of Sunbeam Bread™, its my favorite brand"!!~to the tune of 1964's Newbeats "Bread and Butter"~
Remember "Sorry Charlie" from Sunkist Tuna™?
One I despised---"Don't hate me 'cause I'm beautiful"...from Pantene shampoo commercial.
OH!!! And Madge, what a hoot. "You're soaking in it!!"
The weird one with Meow Mix and the cats are singing!!?! *Meow, meow, meow....."
Then there's:
"2 all beef patties, special sauce........."
(I swear something is added to McDonald's™ food to have everyone become addicted!)
I seem to recall a very young girl, and nothing was between her and her Calvins™!! "Do you wanna know what comes between me and my Calvins.....NOTHING." Wasn't that a real YOUNG Brook Shields?
Oh, and on the same lines as above, "My men wear English Leather™, or nothing at all." Yummy!!!
Got Milk?
Like I said, there are tons and tons.
Got any you remember a lot?
Can you sing along with me?
Ready?
*I'm Speedy*....

Ok, now I'm going to have myriad of jingles in my head all day...
the Big Mac was one that popped into my head as soon as I started reading your list but see you mentioned it..
I always like the Mexican jingle where the butter knife dances with the bread...or was it a spoon?? Can't recall, but the music was catchy.
Have a good Sunday...off to church with jingles in my head..

"Double Your Pleasure, Double Your Fun"....Doublemint gum.
and this one, one of my favorite all time commercials...for Staples:
(sung to the Christmas tune of "It's the most wonderful time of the year") ...the 2 little kids with scowls on their faces while the father scoots all over the store getting school supplies, because "it's the most wonderful time of the year"... back to school for the kids and a rest for Dad!

Meet the Swinger, Polaroid Swinger...
And one of my favorites from when I was a kid was the Mr. Bubble commercial -- He "gets ya so clean your own mother won't know you!"
Oh! And every time I buy bananas I sing "I'm a chaquita banana and I'm here to say..." and...

How about "Heard it through the grapevine" the raisins commercial.
I don't think they had music but I loved "Only you can prevent forest fires"
Am not sure if this commercial was also shown in your country but here I loved the one of MARLBORO.
Thanks for sharing them... nice to reminisce those times.
Happy Monday!
