Here in the UK they're recycling the old ads as a cynical ploy to appeal to the nostalgia market/they have run out of new ideas...

such as;

"Wrigley's Spearmint Gum, gum, gum, Carry the big fresh flavour wherever you are whatever you do"

(complete with marching band and majorettes)

and (my favourite)

"Frys Turkish Delight" - sung to an arabian type of tune.
