tandurusti ki raksha

karta hai lifebuoy...lifebuoy hai jahaan tandurusti hai vahaan...LIFEBUOY! come on...you have to agree that old-world jingles like this one are simply priceless. they never fail to amuse me.

some of the other classics:
- tata ka ok dhulaai ka sabun, ok ok haan tata ka ok. jhin-chik jhin-chik, ok ok haan tata ka ok.
- paan parag, paan masala, paan parag. tain-nain-nain-nain-nain.
- "aur phir bhediye nein sumthing se kahaa, main tumhe kha jaaoonga...". vicks ki goli lo, kich-kich door karo.
- goooold spot, the zing thing. gold spot.
- dip, dip, dip. add the sugar, and the milk, and it's ready to sip. if you want it stronger dip a little longer, dip dip dip.

and then of course, the legendary "aaaaah, la la la la laaaah, la la laaaaah. Liril!' can you think of any current jingle that would stay with people 20 years hence AND make them smile?
