Thread Name: ADD: The Gillette Look Sharp March
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Look Sharp March (Gillette Razors Jingle)
Hi, Lynda - we have two "official" versions of the lyrics above. All that stuck in my mind was:

Click here for a YouTube video of an instrumental version of the jingle. Here's another (click). I can't find a YouTube video with the lyrics - yet. All the Gillette ads I've found are spoken, without the jingle.

Oh, and there's a very nice Arthur Fiedler instrumental recording here (click)

The program was called the Gillette Cavalcade of Sports, but all I remember was the boxing. I gather it even occasionally covered golf. I can't imagine liking boxing now, but I watched or listened to the fights all the time when I was in Detroit (until the age of nine). I broke the habit when I moved from the Big City to Wisconsin, I guess.
