I've noticed for the last several years that TV ADs use some oldie type music to lure us in.

They seem to target the Baby Boomers or maybe I just notice them because I am one.

The one that hit me the hardest was probably about 7 or 8 years ago.
Car commercial using "At Last My Love Has Come Along." For some reason (probably deeply personal) that song makes me cry and it always has.

But, yesterday I heard one and I can't even remember what the AD was for but the song is one from the 70s. It was never one of my favs but when I heard it yesterday I started smiling and I'm still smiling. So, it must have been from a particularly good year for me.

Here 'tis:

Look what they done to my song, Ma
Look what they done to my song, Ma
You know they tied it up in a plastic bag
And, turned it upside down, oh mama
Look what they done to my song


Why they can't even clap along...

that's no good. Hopefully they return.

Suggestion: Could the chat thread be a sticky?

^That would be a novel idea! Just teasin' Ozgal.

Ozgal, everyone! Have fun tonight!!!

I've heard the original video has been known to induce seizures. I refrained from posting that one. You're welcome!

Well thanx saucy...though #118 could have been worded better and yes I try to be logical and diplomatic but that dang POC forum can just "push one's buttons"...LOL.

I love this forum and HOPE/PRAY we can lure our other regular posters back into the fold! If they read this......WE MISS YOU......Don't let mean spirited posters run you off...we all suffer the loss. .

Hey Pittston2Sarasota,

This thread, and indeed, this forum, has served a useful purpose for me this evening, as I am currently attempting to purge and replace my Mp3 list, so I have a bunch of fresh songs to jog with this upcoming week. The music forum is a beautiful thing, and I love it more than any other.

It was stickied for a day.....LOL......I agree it should be stickied as I see stickied threads in the Food Forum and I do think we need one here too but I am a bit biased. We voted to have this one stickied and possibly we can eventually get it stuck(LOL) again.....with the moderators permission......Let's start a sticky petition.

I don't understand why they had to change anything.
The music forum was fine the way it was.
