this is yet one more reason why commercials were better in the '70s. great jingles that didn't insult your intelligence, offend anyone or use sex to sell. Great work Bud. bring back the great tunes!
Except for the fact that the lyrics were loaded with claims that are clear out LIES... so if you prefer to have them just lie right to your face, have at it I guess. There's a difference between saying "you might like our product" and the outlandish claims they made. Seriously, Budweiser always tasted like something died in your mouth - it's barely worthy of calling "beer". I prefer product marketing that doesn't illegally lie about the product thank you very much. You wonder why these jingles went away? That's why! Truth in advertising.
@@chouseification I enjoy it. At least Signature. Not everybody has the same taste, and this doesn't quite count as lying. Lying would be adding some kind of fake statistics. Unless you're wanting to say something like Red Bull lies because it doesn't actually give you wings?
@@chouseification Not so much "lies" as subjective, meaningless marketing words and phrases that sound good in a very superficial way but in reality say nothing, and certainly make no provable claims.
@@TS-ef2gv not true at all. There are marketing laws these days, and they tried to make up BS terms to skirt around the older, weaker ones. Very specifically... but end result were a bunch of lies. Lawmakers eventually agreed that was BS and at least made it harder to do, especially for alcohol ads. Tobacco ads of course went away completely, along with their BS lies.
When you say Bud, you've said a lot of things nobody else can say. When you say Bud, you've gone as far as you can go to get the very best. When you say Bud, you've said the word that means you like to do it all. When you say Bud, it means you want the beer that's got a taste that's number one. When you say Bud, you tell the world you know what makes it all the way. When you say Bud, you say you care enough to only want the king of beers. There is no other one. There's only something less. Because the king of beers is leading all the rest. When you say Budweiser, you've said it all.
That's what Joan Ganz Cooney got the most intelligent idea yet. Combining this with educating children on their ABCs and 123s, you have the number one educational show on the planet, which is: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-y5FOA0oM5I8.html
Everything was cool back in the early 70s, mini skirts,love was still in, tv shows, the brother/sisterhood of music,people did not judge you by the shoes or clothes you wore, and if you were a kid you had an abundance of friends who looked out for one another, such a groovy era that probably will never repeat, but then again when this pandemic ends, who knows ,just maybe another cool era will materialize
I absolutely fell in love with that young lady she is beautiful classy and Ani commercial I really like that no it’s nothing dirty just a good clean commercial well done folks have a nice day this is a Jim mungai from Kennerdell a Pennsylvania
@@inkyguy Steve Karmen wrote music and the lyrics for both famous Bud commercial songs. No where does it list either as first being "Broadway songs"...
@@otuvthpast4772 remember the old dudes from bartles and james???? i loved alex the strohs dog but my fave was good old SPUDS the ORIGINAL party animal!!!!!
There’s a comment on this feed from the singer’s daughter so I’m not sure if your comment is accurate about the fake singing. She says that’s her mother singing.
@@BeyondInvestigation the singer is actually Valerie Simpson, and the lip-syncing actress is Pat Henderson. Linda November, the great session singer, is most likely in the chorus on this spot, no doubt about that. Here is Steve Karmen, the jingle's composer, mentioning Valerie Simpson as the singer on this famous commercial: www.npr.org/2016/12/13/505442928/the-jingle-king-tracks-decline-of-original-music-in-advertising
From the NBC special that aired on Sunday, November 29, 1970 called "Sing Out, Sweet Land" which Anheuser-Busch sponsored. Yes that is Leslie Uggams who was in the cast of that show which John Wayne was the host and many stars appeared.
The main actress in this commercial is Pat Henderson, who was also a singer. She is lip-syncing to Valerie Simpson's voice. Pat Henderson sang on an interesting album from 1972 called The John Leccia Interpolation.
Greg Palmer I've said the same thing about Jerry Stiller. Bet he's a great shadow boxer. Black guy front right looks like Greg Morris. And it looks like he has zero rhythm too.
Greg Palmer, Jerry Stiller does not seem to appear in this commercial. There is someone who resembles him a bit, but that is not Jerry Stiller in 1976.
I remember hearing this ad on the radio ad infinitum, but I think this is the first time ever seeing the tv ad! I never knew it was a sister singing the lead!
This was hard to find. I kept coming up with "Here Comes the King." That's a good jingle too, but this is the one that stands out in my memory. Even tho it's older.
yes she is , i beleave i heard on the news a little while back that she died recently, dont hold me to that, but it seems like i heard that,, let me know if you heard anything about her too, i think the news story was ,the lady that sings the budweiser song has passed away,,,and then they said her name and her age
Commercials? What are those? There are pesky little ads that I mute for five seconds until they go away. I stopped watching commercial and cable television over 15 years ago.
So, there's something I need to clarify; my mother (her name is Patricia) is NOT singing in this commercial. According to her, the voice they used was of Valerie Simpson, 1/2 of the singing duo "Ashford and Simpson", if you remember them from back in the day as well. My mom however does have an amazing singing voice! And you can hear it on the 1972 album she sang lead vocals on, called the Jean Lexia Interpolation: ru-vid.com?search_query=Jean+Lexia+Interpolation&nohtml5=False The album itself didn't go anywhere, didn't make it to the charts or anything, but it was a BIG HIT in my house growing up! My favorite song on that album is called "Good Morning to You" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KMtttNApWeQ.html

im still trying to discover which came first the budweiser jingle or the sonny and cher top 40 hit "when you say love"? i cant seem to find any source or anyone old enough to CLEARLY remember? ~ lil bro
I do not drink beer, it taste like rotten grass water. But that is just me nothing against it, i just do not like it but when I hear this song it makes me want to have a nice cold glass and on top of that I feel like marching and and , I hate to admit it, tears well up in my eyes because it makes me weepy for it reminds me of a simpler time and good memories. I catch myself walking and whistling the tune, marching like a loon!!
Sean, when i hear this commercial, it reminds me of of the old Mystery Radio Theater shows that often featured this jingle in the advertisement segments. Old radio shows and Budweiser commercials: such good memories. I would be sitting with my dad in his ham radio room, on that green velveteen sofa, with mostly just the light organ running for illumination, as he slowly nursed a double scotch on ice. We would listen to those old radio shows, and sing along to the Budweiser song when it came on in between. :)
I find this to have a corny, hokey but dignified and majestic sound. I was in marching band in HS and I too, find my left foot getting ready to step out on the football field when I hear the drums. Nice memories.
I work for Walmart and a BUDWEISER vendor came in to do his thing and this jingle just popped in my head so I started singing it. You should've seen the look on his face when I was done! 😂
You know, actually it is! She did this commercial a year before she had me. She was talking about it the other day, and I told her to see if it was on You Tube, and here it is! Thanks for posting it. Ah, the wonders on the internet...
+Jamala Henderson Thank you, because I had thought maybe it was Diane Ross, who also had a marvelous voice. This, and the like-period Hillside Singers' Coke song, were the two most successful TV commercials and advertising jingles in history.
I love this commercial and remember when it first aired. Jamala, can you settle an Internet debate? Is your mother singing or is she lip syncing to another singer? How is your mom doing these days?
The lyrics are ridiculously meaningless. However, the tune and especially the orchestration and choral parts are genius. The lead singer's voice is lip synced, as I presume all of the parts were. The real singer was the legendary Valerie Simpson of "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" fame - amongst many other notable songs.
