I was just reminded about the classic 'Um Bongo' and wandered wether there were any otheres that had slipped through the net that is my memory? What's everyones fave tv advert song?
(lyrics welcome)
Way down deep in the middle of the Congo, a hippo took an apricot, a guava and a mango. He stuck it with the others, and he danced a dainty tango.
The rhino said, "I know, we'll call it Um Bongo", Um Bongo, Um Bongo, They drink it in the Congo.
The python picked the passion fruit, the marmoset the mandarin. The parrot painted packets, that the whole caboodle landed in.
So when it comes to sun and fun and goodness in the jungle, They all prefer the sunny funny one they call Um Bongo!

Many many many....I have a "thing" for good ad music. While I suspect the OP was looking for the "classic" e.g. Fry's Turkish Delight or Air on a G String for the Hamlet ads I'm more for the great songs.
One of my favs is this. An unusual pairing.
Hugo Boss and Jesus and Mary Chain

And the best for me at the moment are these 3:
Virgin Media and Mazzy Start

Virgin Media and Slow Moving Millie
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xry73HTcf9o
Talk Talk and The Box Tops
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMAK54TQiaw
And if I may go a little off topic this is the best trailer music of the moment and maybe ever
Where the Wild Things Are and Arcade Fire

I had to study that Guiness advert for my GCSEs, absolutely awesome, must have watched it 100 times during that assignment, transcripted it and everything.
Talking of film trailers and music, the one for The Firm that's knocking around at the moment is ace, loads of 80s tunes0 -
It is Phat Planet by Leftfield.
I work with the guy (sort of he's about 1,000 times higher up the company) that commissioned "Surfer".
He did OK out of it he's now CMO for the company.0 -
