I am challenging you to be creative and share it with the rest of us. Here is the scenario: You have been employed to do a work for hire. Your job is to write a short jingle for a nationally known company that sells a product or provides a service. Here are the rules:
(1) Jingle must be 1 - 2 lines (up to 4 lines if they are very brief). That's about all the time you get for a commercial tag.
(2) Pick any nationally known company.
(3) You pick the product or the service that the company provides.
(4) Must be original.
(5) Must be suitable for musical accompniment.
(6) Keep it suitable for all audiences.
I recommend that you put your copyright notice with it...just in case! Try to have a little fun with this as you use your creative skills in a way that perhaps you have not done previously. Just a reminder...there is a LOT of money to be made with commercial jingles! Okay...let's get going!

Lifestyles Jingle 1 Copyright © Graham Henderson APRA 2007 Lifestyles are all different. Let yours be safe and fun. When you need protection Put a Lifestyle on.
Spoken: There’s nothing limp about condoms when you choose Lifestyles.
I sent this on to Lifestyles before posting it here. That should give it even more protection I think Graham

"This Ford Is For Real" © 2001 Daubert & Holcombe Music
Here is my love, you know it's real, now you can have it Here's is my heart, carry it close, don't ever go without it
This Ford is for real I know it, With all the designs to show it This Ford is for real I know it, ahhhhhh (All over the world it shows it): for the last chorus.
end.
I know, the "it"'s. But we have the 60 second demo, (with just the chorus in spots, to allow talk over music), and "it" sounds good with all the its. IT really does! We combined a love song and the love for cars. We also have a version with the verses.
I'll email the MP3 anyone wanting to hear IT. Thanks, John

This may only be suitable for XM radio In answer to Rick's: When you think Viagra's the answer Take a moment just to ask her She may say, "It's not you, honey Do me a favor and save your money I don't want to make you feel bad But baby, I'm the best sex I ever had" Spoken: "Adult Emporium, just off Route 6 in the building with all the windows blacked out. Female toys are in the back." (I really am sorry. I don't know what's gotten into me. I promise, I'm finished. ) Tink

Advice is just a click away so click on JPFolks today We make the music business better because "We're all in this together"
(spoken over bed) (announcer) JPFolks.com (chorus of voices) click and join us (announcer, slightly more emphatic) JPFolks.com (chorus of voices) We're all in this together (laughter and cheers)
I chose not to say, "Just Plain Folks" because I wanted people to come away from the experience remembering "JPFolks.com" and "We're all in this together." Adding one more materially important phrase would start to distract, so this shows the address and the message.
All the Best, Mike
You've got to know your limitations. I don't know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way. -Johnny Cash It's only music. -niteshift Mike Dunbar Music

Of course there had to be one..and of course it was by you! Here's my somewhat different take on your theme:
So ya think this high tech talk is new Well, let me give ya a lesson The first to suggest point and click Were the folks at Smith and Wesson (c) Alan D. David 2007
Does that work?

Well, well, TINK!
Quite an array of offerings here! And yes, your muse is smoking or drinking something that I doubt I am familiar with! (I know Grammar Police...with which I am familiar. Sheesh!).
I promise not to pull your finger. But, I will ride that Amtrack to your toy store! BTW, are batteries included?
Reminded me of a fabulous joke..but I am going to leave it alone. I sometimes entertain the thought that I have a small amount of respect her at JPF...I'd hate to see it go down the drain!
Nice offerings, Cindy...one and all!
