Subject: RE: Jingles you remember.
The Grasshopper's Dance by Ernest Bucalossi.(1900/1905)

   That's the name of the novelty tune used recently on Brit.tv for the dancing milk bottles ad. Used to be on the radio in the 40s/50s.

   I went into a charity shop here in Norwich today,and found the tune on a 78 !! (Thank you,up there.)




   The jingle I pointlessly remember is for Danish Blue cheese. Two phrases on two lines waved about like a pair of scissors and I used to copy the waving with my arms at the time (late50s/early 60s).

   nobody was interested then either.

   Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp !!


   Please,somebody say they honestly remember that add.Or ad, even.(Sorry.Quite unibtentional. Am IIIIIIIII tired.)
