This had a great selection of commercials that I could totally relate to; part of my childhood, I saw these probably hundreds of times for the most part... Fun trip down memory lane!
same here, except I don't remember the commercials looking so old lol.... also unlike today, I think in the 70s they ran the same ones for at least a few years, and sometimes they changed things a little but still kept the same jingle. Like the Frito song (never could do that one today, it would be called racist lol) And the Hawian punch and tootsie pop ads, changed a little, the cartoon got better over the years.
Same here. I'll be 64 later this year and can't believe how fast it seems time went by. It's video's like this one that make RUclips such a great entertainment option. So much of our past is available with the click of the keyboard.
Is it weird this actually brought tears to my eyes? Boy, do I wish we could rewind the clock and go back to simpler times. The world is so awful these days 😢
I often say that to myself. The ironic thing: Life was pretty darn tough back then! But the good outweighed the bad, most of the time. And the world had what it no longer seems to have: Hope. You thought things would get better. I wonder if they still could, nowadays.
@@taracollins5597 I wonder the same thing. I often wonder if this is even fixable. Sure…turn the US red but what about society? The problem with that is there will still be criminals in our government. Maybe not as many but money corrupts a lot of things. Humanity has some serious heart and soul issues and how do you fix that? The thing I miss the most about days past is that people interacted more. We talked, we spent time together face to face. If you ask me technology/social media has been the death of that which has negatively sent ripples out into society.
The commerical with the Indian with a tear in his eye when trash is throw on ground is the most impressionable commerical todate in my life. I have all my life thought twice about throwing trash out the car window from this commerical.
Sure but my old man would throw you out to go get it. Then get that back side when you got home. Unless you did it in front of others,then it was after you picked it up, apologize then in front of them,and when you got home. We ain't the same.
@@paulh6591 I always thought the Oscar Mayer little boy in the commercial was sooo cute!!! I remember singing that jingle,was definitely very popular back then... Notice how no commercials for prescription drugs were ever on.. Now that's all there is that & tons of Insurance commercials... Lots of sicker people now unfortunately
Except the actor was not a native American who did this commercial. I won the Ecological Performance Award (EPA) in 5th grade NJ for an ecology poster depicting pollution in several forms. I was 12 that year, I also cried when our Principal Duncan awarded me with a certificate, a cup with the ECOLOGY logo and a $5 coupon McDonald's. I was sitting in the corner in "time out" for being disruptive when the Principal came to the class. It's moments like those when I wished I had access to a firearm. Sad but true
Well. We’re living in a time like “1984”, when 2+2=5 or else! So, harkening back to a time when corruption wasn’t so rampant, it’s hard not to get personal and have a tear fall like the Indian when he witnessed all the littering.
If only John Kennedy had been able to do what he talked about doing. Imagine if he'd been able to cull out the secret agencies he was so opposed to! Now they've almost completely taken over the world! And they thirst for even more power and money To hell with all of us just give them their power and money! I believe that truth and good will win out over power and evil.
I couldn’t stop smiling the whole way through. I haven’t seen these commercials in decades but they are so fresh in my memory. It’s like I never left the 60’s and 70’s.
Omg, I remember all of these Except for the gum ball one. You forgot a big one. „Antny, sic, sound of Running shoes through the cobblestone streets of the North End of Boston. Every Wednesday Antny Matinetti where he‘s tired out getting to his mamma‘s kitchen. Wednesday is Prince Spaghetti Day!
@Margaret We had three POTUS back then. I would almost hug them all just to temporary go back in time (primarily to see and be with the relatives and friends long time passed).
The youth of today will never❤ get to experience how much simpler life was. People were much happier. I am 60 and remembered every single one of theses commercials. Makes me sad what our country has become. So divided by hate.
I grew up in the 70's and this was my favorite decade! I remember all these commercials and this brought me right back to that great time in my life. I wish it was still like those great days. Times have changed drastically and for the worse!
@@raymondhopwood9393The commercials showed an innocence where people treated each other with kindness and respect, The country is fueled now by hate and division.

Thank was one of the nicest, honest, and most well written comment I've seen on You Tube. Thank you. I am a 70's kid myself, and while the 60's commercials are before me, many of the others I've seen and like you at the time they were not important, just wanted to see my shows. Now I each one I remember brings back a different memory, story, or adventure. I miss my family so much. I now have the disease that took my Mom, and it's so hard to be alone when your illness consumes you. But these do remind me of a time much better, and so much more peaceful.
spartygirl121 You sound just like my late sister, Vicki (may God rest her soul). She was always talking about how she couldn't remember half of what she did a few days or even a week before, but she would always remember the lyrics to her favorite songs from her teenage years, especially "Hotel California" by the Eagles.
The commercial where Santa is riding on a Norelco Triple Head from an electric shaver meant the start of the Christmas season to me. I looked forward to it every year and then it was gone!
Yeah, and the annual showing of 'RUDOLF THE RED NOSED REINDEER', that we looked forward to and had to catch or it was gone for another year, like Christmas Snow.
I can remember 90 to 95 percent of these commercials from 40 years ago but can only remember a handful of commercials on tv today. What a great trip down memory lane.
@@garryquiggins8183 Sad thing to say, those 3 or 4 channels probably had more to watch than the hundreds of channels we have now. My stepdad constantly changes channels on his Hulu due to hardly anything decent to watch, but yet back in the day seemed like better things to watch, I just pull up stuff on the internet from back in the 70's and 80's to watch.
If you would have told me at 9 years old how much I'd treasure these "annoying" commercials so many decades later, I'd have thought you were crazy. CANNOT believe how old these look--or how old I look now, too.
Amen! My daughter thinks I'm crazy because I enjoy commercials. These do look so old, and they may be labeled 60's and 70's but most of these ran into the 80s and 90s. I'm just about 40 and remember most of these. The only commercials I hate are the Cadbury Bunny Egg and the Hershey Kiss where the kiss rings the bells... She doesn't understand why I dislike them 🤣🤣 Those two are not in here, but I have seen them since I was a kid, and I'm over them. Give them a rest and allow me to enjoy them YEARS after they have finished playing. 🤦🏻♀️
I was such a young child when these commercials aired, and yet I can remember all of them. This was back when Madison Avenue was given at least 60 seconds to make their mark on America, and boy did they. I couldn't tell you one ad from nowadays that even comes close to these wonderful productions to sell a product, or that I can remember. This was truly a wonderful selection of ads that captured a poignant time in America for me.
As someone who grew up in the 60's & 70's... I remember every one of these almost word for word.... so much better than the commercials these days..... Also... all the wonderful talents that are no longer with us.....
I turned 62 today and I'm watching these commercials early in the morning and they're the best commercials of all time especially the ones in the '70s they are just good commercials and I can picture myself as a kid a teenager watching these commercials and I know every one of them those were real good commercials that's all I can say you don't see commercials like that anymore on TV
Amazing that todays ad men forgot how these great jingles can resonate and be remembered for your entire life. What an era, so lucky to have been a part of it!!!
It's amazing how many of those commercials I actually still knew the lyrics to the T after not hearing them in over 40 years...growing up in the 70's was awesome!!
Yes, and women could be women and it was okay. It was okay for a woman to want to be attractive to men and to get married and be a wife, a mother, and a homemaker as opposed to today where your politics define beauty in a beauty contest as opposed to your looks. If a man admires a woman today he is objectifying her as opposed to just being attracted to her and she dresses and makes herself up so she is attractive to men. That used to be okay. Much simpler times back then for sure.
Except, we see in them the rise of our modern complications - case in point, hiring an Italian to pretend to be an American Indian, in commercials that blamed the rise in litter on the public, instead of the lack of recycling options for the "new packaging", which was rapidly replacing glass and steel containers, for which there already existed, at the time, functional programs. Since then.. we still have no real, consistent, programs for these things, and the amount of litter, and stuff ending up in landfills, just keeps going up, while recycling programs are continually poor, ineffective, and rely on third parties (instead of, as before, the original manufacturers, who would have washed, and reused their glass bottles, and the like). So many thing wrong with, and complicated, in the current world, all stemming from, "It would be cheaper for us, the manufacturer/state/etc. to lay blame on the consumer/public, and just not spend the time or effort to offer a solution to the problems caused, along side with the 'progress' we are making." Then again, it all comes down to what you define as "progress", doesn't it? Because, that word means very different things to a hippy, generalist liberal, a 'progressive', a Democrat, a libertarian, a centrist, a conservative, an evangelical, or a Republican. All of them, and others, which overlaps, on some issues, but so, so, different in what they deem to be solutions to problems. (The political parties being listed because.. ultimately, even when they include people from one or more of the categories, they are often far more concerned about the "politics" of a solution than its effectiveness, plausibility, or costs. I.e., even if its costs more than expected, doesn't work, ignores the people its supposed to help, and is completely ineffective, at least its politically feasible... Sort of like.. blaming the public for the increase of non-recyclable trash, instead of demanding the producers of said products to produce a recycling solution.).
With all respect, the purpose of the ad was to encourage people to put trash where it belongs, be that a garbage can or a recycling bin. The trash along the highways and in rivers didn't end up there because there wasn't an appropriate bin of some sort to put it into. As a child in the 60s I supplemented my income by picking up lots of recyclable glass bottles from the side of the road and turning them in to collect the deposit.
Wish respect, the evidence says otherwise. It was promoted *by* companies *as* they ended their internal recycling programs and ramped up production of "disposable packaging". Its a bit hard to claim that it wasn't intended to, at minimum, redirect blame, when the people producing it where "specifically" the same ones that where creating the products that produced the most non-recyclable trash. This is in fact straight from wiki: "The Keep America Beautiful narrow focus on litter, and indeed construction of the modern concept of litter, is seen as an attempt to divert responsibility from industries that manufacture and sell disposable products to the consumer that improperly disposes of the related non-returnable wrappers, filters, and beverage containers." In other words, the organization itself was specifically founded to "distract" the public. That *some* recycling programs still existed at the time doesn't change the fact that "most" of the stuff being newly produced was throw away, non-recyclable, and the campaign left people thinking it was "their" responsibility to clean up the resulting mess, not the manufacturers, for failing to create a program to recycle the new products. This is sometimes termed "greenwashing".
I'm 53 years old and remember these commercials. I love watching them, they bring back so many memories and that one with the Indian crying over people littering played for a lot of years, it should still be playing today! Thanks for showing all of these great old commercials 😊
@@mlbrooks4066 A lot of southern Italians look sort of native American, jet black hair and ruddy skin tone. Some Greeks have the same DNA as some southwestern tribes. 65,000 years ago, there was a group in Asia,they split, some of them went east and into North America, some went west and into the middle east and Mediterranean.
You have no idea how happy this collection makes me. My mom was an ad exec during the 60s thru the eighties and every one of these has happy memories. Thank you very much❤😊
@@vladimirpoutine7522 He was an actor doing his job by acting. The important thing is that it made a real impact in reducing liter which was a huge problem.
Not hard to imagine the outraged backlash that would result today if a commercial featured a Native American who wasn't Native American after all. "Cultural appropriation!" Betcha it would be a huge scandal. Then riots in the streets...picketing...(mostly) peaceful protests...cats & dogs living together/total chaos.... Seriously though, could they *not* find a genuine Native for this role? Not to be PC, because political correctness keeps shifting, but for authenticity's sake. I just don't get the casting choice.
So much class and imagination. Living in the 70's was the epitome of ALL the arts. We didn't mind the interruptions, if they were clever enough to appeal!
The story of my childhood! I could finish a lot of these without seeing the rest of the commercial! Imagine the Frito Bandito today! Plus the quicker picker upper!
The 60's, 70's & 80's...the goldilocks era of American History. How blessed we were to grow up during that time. When times were simply...better. Greatly missed.
@@timothycreamer8610 So nice to know I'm not alone in that feeling. I'm trying not to be a generational snob. But they were, IMO, truly the best of times. I grew up in Montreal in that era, and the TV, music, and people in general were whimsical. I still refer to those three decades as the 'Holy Trinity of Times'.
It was better back then. Today every child's weekly routine is scheduled hardcore. Back in the 70's I would wake up in July at 7 AM, have breakfast, leave home to explore the neighborhood, go home at noon for lunch, and be home at 6 PM for dinner. Note: DO NOT BE EVEN A SECOND LATE FOR DINNER G-DAMMIT! Thanks Dad!
@@randymillhouse791 Aye, and for most of us the golden rule was, when the street lights come on you had better be back or heading for home. They were really good times...and greatly missed. I feel for the kids of today.
Defiantly brings back memories of my younger years. I'm 53 now but these commercials are burned in my memory, I feel young again for a few minutes. Thanks for your find.
Nostalgia. I didn't know I needed it until I I watched this. It's awesome and thank you. I gather each generation will have their own nostalgia one day.😊

Not sure I agree. Yes we are a lot older and unhealthier, but the computers, internet and cell phones has made life so much more convenient. The fact that any information or products can be obtained 24 hours 7 days a week is simply amazing.
@@davidr4523 Murder, drugs, not being able to trust our leaders... I think that's what people mean by 'the good ole days.' The morality back then was so much different. Everyone seemed happy & tolerant of each other. We celebrated & made fun of our differences instead of using them as tools against each other. No one smiles in commercials or on tv now. People have made being happy something to be looked down on or ridiculed
@@criconinvestments7723 lol is this a real question. I call it being white straight and delusional if you think everyone not white and straight was laughing with you
I was born in '72, but I'm still old enough to remember about 75% of these commercials. So many memorable jingles! The one with the Indian made me tear up as a child. In regards to the Oscar Mayer weiner ad, I remember the neighborhood kids singing at the end, " 'cuz Jimmy Carter has a way of screwing up the USA." LOL
🎶My President has a first name, it's J-I-M-M-Y. My president has a second name, it's C-A-R-T-E-R.... There were too many letters in the second name, and it didn't really fit, so you had to double-time on "T-E"

@@garryquiggins8183 Sad thing to say, those 3 or 4 channels probably had more to watch than the hundreds of channels we have now. My stepdad constantly changes channels on his Hulu due to hardly anything decent to watch, but yet back in the day seemed like better things to watch, I just pull up stuff on the internet from back in the 70's and 80's to watch.
cause its full of political crap,hate of conservative people
Looking back at these commercials makes me realize something.
It’s really sad how much influence advertising has on our society.
I remember all of these commercials. They brought back alot of memories from my childhood
My childhood in a 15 minute video 😊
If you would have told me at 9 years old how much I'd treasure these "annoying" commercials so many decades later, I'd have thought you were crazy. CANNOT believe how old these look--or how old I look now, too.
eslgurucalif yes, that’s so true!😲😂
Idaho time goes so fast
Amen! My daughter thinks I'm crazy because I enjoy commercials. These do look so old, and they may be labeled 60's and 70's but most of these ran into the 80s and 90s.
I'm just about 40 and remember most of these. The only commercials I hate are the Cadbury Bunny Egg and the Hershey Kiss where the kiss rings the bells... She doesn't understand why I dislike them 🤣🤣
Those two are not in here, but I have seen them since I was a kid, and I'm over them. Give them a rest and allow me to enjoy them YEARS after they have finished playing. 🤦🏻♀️
I had the same reaction. If you’d told me 50 years ago I’d be watching these ads for enjoyment, I would have said you were nuts.
I know the feeling and there went another 4 years since you wrote that comment....like smoke through a keyhole
I was such a young child when these commercials aired, and yet I can remember all of them. This was back when Madison Avenue was given at least 60 seconds to make their mark on America, and boy did they. I couldn't tell you one ad from nowadays that even comes close to these wonderful productions to sell a product, or that I can remember. This was truly a wonderful selection of ads that captured a poignant time in America for me.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
These commercials bring back memories from my childhood
Makes me miss my childhood in the late 60s through the 70s
At 57 I remembered every single one of these commercials.. thanks for the trip down an older kids memory lane
Was awesome!!
Especially TAB 😀
@@davidarmitage289 😃😃👍 yep for sure
I a 77,and remember most of these..BTW learned to spell BOLOGNA watching them ...
@@janeiwasduncan8463 "My bologna has a first name it's Oscar" 🤣🤣🤣
Oh the memories! Fantastic assortment of classic videos! I’ve seen others, but none even came close to capturing the era of the 60’s & 70’s! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
LOVE LOVE IT!!! Those were the most awesome era periods,ever the commercials were wholesome along with all the music.
OMG I remember watching these back in the day, had forgotten about some of them. The 1970's were a great time to be young.
Our music was the best too
As someone who grew up in the 60's & 70's... I remember every one of these almost word for word.... so much better than the commercials these days..... Also... all the wonderful talents that are no longer with us.....
Yes for sure I am 58 remember them verbatim too
Me2
I love these classic commercials!!
I turned 62 today and I'm watching these commercials early in the morning and they're the best commercials of all time especially the ones in the '70s they are just good commercials and I can picture myself as a kid a teenager watching these commercials and I know every one of them those were real good commercials that's all I can say you don't see commercials like that anymore on TV
It's all infomercials
Amazing that todays ad men forgot how these great jingles can resonate and be remembered for your entire life. What an era, so lucky to have been a part of it!!!
I'm 60 years old here in 2022 and I remember all these commercials and the jingles, a lot of these from Saturday mornings.
They ought to bring back that Budwiser jingle, it was memorable and very good.
Me 2
I came to the US in 1969 at the age of 12 .it makes me so nostalgic to watch these commercials after all these years . Wow!!
A blast from the past ! Let the good times roll !🌟
It's amazing how many of those commercials I actually still knew the lyrics to the T after not hearing them in over 40 years...growing up in the 70's was awesome!!
Yes, and women could be women and it was okay. It was okay for a woman to want to be attractive to men and to get married and be a wife, a mother, and a homemaker as opposed to today where your politics define beauty in a beauty contest as opposed to your looks. If a man admires a woman today he is objectifying her as opposed to just being attracted to her and she dresses and makes herself up so she is attractive to men. That used to be okay. Much simpler times back then for sure.
Yep 💯💯‼️
Don me too like thymes too ole tv shows Love them
It was the best, wasn’t it?🥲
Ancient Chinese secret, huh?
I remember each and every one of these commercials. Takes me back to much simpler times when I was growing up.
Me too
I feel the same
Except, we see in them the rise of our modern complications - case in point, hiring an Italian to pretend to be an American Indian, in commercials that blamed the rise in litter on the public, instead of the lack of recycling options for the "new packaging", which was rapidly replacing glass and steel containers, for which there already existed, at the time, functional programs. Since then.. we still have no real, consistent, programs for these things, and the amount of litter, and stuff ending up in landfills, just keeps going up, while recycling programs are continually poor, ineffective, and rely on third parties (instead of, as before, the original manufacturers, who would have washed, and reused their glass bottles, and the like).
So many thing wrong with, and complicated, in the current world, all stemming from, "It would be cheaper for us, the manufacturer/state/etc. to lay blame on the consumer/public, and just not spend the time or effort to offer a solution to the problems caused, along side with the 'progress' we are making." Then again, it all comes down to what you define as "progress", doesn't it? Because, that word means very different things to a hippy, generalist liberal, a 'progressive', a Democrat, a libertarian, a centrist, a conservative, an evangelical, or a Republican. All of them, and others, which overlaps, on some issues, but so, so, different in what they deem to be solutions to problems. (The political parties being listed because.. ultimately, even when they include people from one or more of the categories, they are often far more concerned about the "politics" of a solution than its effectiveness, plausibility, or costs. I.e., even if its costs more than expected, doesn't work, ignores the people its supposed to help, and is completely ineffective, at least its politically feasible... Sort of like.. blaming the public for the increase of non-recyclable trash, instead of demanding the producers of said products to produce a recycling solution.).
With all respect, the purpose of the ad was to encourage people to put trash where it belongs, be that a garbage can or a recycling bin. The trash along the highways and in rivers didn't end up there because there wasn't an appropriate bin of some sort to put it into. As a child in the 60s I supplemented my income by picking up lots of recyclable glass bottles from the side of the road and turning them in to collect the deposit.
Wish respect, the evidence says otherwise. It was promoted *by* companies *as* they ended their internal recycling programs and ramped up production of "disposable packaging". Its a bit hard to claim that it wasn't intended to, at minimum, redirect blame, when the people producing it where "specifically" the same ones that where creating the products that produced the most non-recyclable trash.
This is in fact straight from wiki: "The Keep America Beautiful narrow focus on litter, and indeed construction of the modern concept of litter, is seen as an attempt to divert responsibility from industries that manufacture and sell disposable products to the consumer that improperly disposes of the related non-returnable wrappers, filters, and beverage containers."
In other words, the organization itself was specifically founded to "distract" the public. That *some* recycling programs still existed at the time doesn't change the fact that "most" of the stuff being newly produced was throw away, non-recyclable, and the campaign left people thinking it was "their" responsibility to clean up the resulting mess, not the manufacturers, for failing to create a program to recycle the new products. This is sometimes termed "greenwashing".
It's amazing how many of these I remember from back then. Nostalgia!
Brings back so many happy memories when times were simple and easy I wish we can turn back time
i was born in 62 i remember all these commercials. seems like only yesterday i was watching them. memories sweet memories came flooding back.
The good ol days, never get away with some of these today. Glad I was there in the day to enjoy them
I'm 53 years old and remember these commercials. I love watching them, they bring back so many memories and that one with the Indian crying over people littering played for a lot of years, it should still be playing today! Thanks for showing all of these great old commercials 😊
Iron Eyes Cody wasn't really Native American. He was Italian American, named diCorti.
@@mlbrooks4066 A lot of southern Italians look sort of native American, jet black hair and ruddy skin tone. Some Greeks have the same DNA as some southwestern tribes. 65,000 years ago, there was a group in Asia,they split, some of them went east and into North America, some went west and into the middle east and Mediterranean.
To step back in time and just enjoy those wonderful years again is so nice. Wish we could go back to that simpler happier time and stay .
These commercials were timeless and priceless
I was born in 65 and remember all of these. What a time to grow up. Thanks for the memories
Greetings fellow 1965-er. It was a very good year. ;-)
I was born the same year great time to be growing up
@@davidmellet261 I was born in 1970 does it make any difference 🙄
@@Zoubirking-1970 Not much :-)
@@Zoubirking-1970 What about 1966 😆
At 63 years old I can remember sitting in front of the our first color TV watching all of these
These commercials are so much better than the commercials today. 📺😊
Thanks for the trip down memory lane!!! 65 and still alive!!
I'm 57 years old now, and I can still sing all these jingles to this day.
Yep. Mind control.
@@alitlweird To an extent for sure, but funny I don't eat any of this food anymore.
Me too! And I'll be 64 in 2 weeks.
@@riverebec1 happy happy 😊 enjoy!
I’m 57 also, and I remember them all
You have no idea how happy this collection makes me. My mom was an ad exec during the 60s thru the eighties and every one of these has happy memories. Thank you very much❤😊
Oh my gosh...the crying Indian...I'll never forget that one as a kid... really brings me back 🔙
Wasn't that dude just an Italian passing himself off as Native American or something to that effect?
@@vladimirpoutine7522 He was an actor doing his job by acting. The important thing is that it made a real impact in reducing liter which was a huge problem.
@@ledsohio Pretty sure he took the character a bit too far in real life....Just watched a short documentary about him.
@@vladimirpoutine7522 his patents were Italian immigrants living in South Louisiana, I believe. He was officially adopted by one of the tribes.
Not hard to imagine the outraged backlash that would result today if a commercial featured a Native American who wasn't Native American after all.
"Cultural appropriation!"
Betcha it would be a huge scandal. Then riots in the streets...picketing...(mostly) peaceful protests...cats & dogs living together/total chaos....
Seriously though, could they *not* find a genuine Native for this role? Not to be PC, because political correctness keeps shifting, but for authenticity's sake. I just don't get the casting choice.
I remember all of these commerical , as a kid. They bring so much great sentimental memories .
I remember most of the commercials. Love them!
Oh my goodness, thank you for bringing up my childhood! I appreciate this! I grew up in the 80’s but still remember many of these commercials!
Born in 65, what a great time to be a kid.
Born in ‘62 here and I agree.
Born in 69 and wouldn't trade our youth in for anything. Well maybe a few million dollars. But we had it all as kids
64 We've been through some interesting times these last few decades.
Likewise. Jersey Shore guy here.
'65 here too. Happy birthdays....
This was back when commercials were fun.
I remember most of these. thanx for this blast from the past.
So much class and imagination. Living in the 70's was the epitome of ALL the arts. We didn't mind the interruptions, if they were clever enough to appeal!
The story of my childhood! I could finish a lot of these without seeing the rest of the commercial! Imagine the Frito Bandito today! Plus the quicker picker upper!
The 60's, 70's & 80's...the goldilocks era of American History.
How blessed we were to grow up during that time.
When times were simply...better.
Greatly missed.
@@free322001 There is always bad in every era...but still there was a LOT of good traditional American values going on for those 30'ish years.
There was something ineffable about that span.
@@timothycreamer8610 So nice to know I'm not alone in that feeling. I'm trying not to be a generational snob. But they were, IMO, truly the best of times. I grew up in Montreal in that era, and the TV, music, and people in general were whimsical. I still refer to those three decades as the 'Holy Trinity of Times'.
It was better back then. Today every child's weekly routine is scheduled hardcore. Back in the 70's I would wake up in July at 7 AM, have breakfast, leave home to explore the neighborhood, go home at noon for lunch, and be home at 6 PM for dinner.
Note: DO NOT BE EVEN A SECOND LATE FOR DINNER G-DAMMIT! Thanks Dad!
@@randymillhouse791
Aye, and for most of us the golden rule was, when the street lights come on you had better be back or heading for home.
They were really good times...and greatly missed. I feel for the kids of today.
Defiantly brings back memories of my younger years. I'm 53 now but these commercials are burned in my memory, I feel young again for a few minutes. Thanks for your find.
Nostalgia. I didn't know I needed it until I I watched this. It's awesome and thank you. I gather each generation will have their own nostalgia one day.😊
These commercials brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful, precious memories of my youth ❤️ ♥️ there will never ever be times like these again!!
Brings back so many childhood memories...wow...where has the time gone
Like Cher says if I can turn back time🎼🎵
It's crazy how back then we never gave it a thought! We just saw that we had our whole futures and now we look back at what seems like a flash! Time
I actually remember most of these commercials. I was seriously addicted to television as a child.
I remember the jingles from the cigarette commercials too!
I think all of us were.
@@spiritmatter1553 : Kent with the MicroniteFilter……Us Tareyton smokers would rather fight than switch..…More doctors smoke Chesterfields than any other brand….Winston tastes good like a cigarette should…etc. .
@@bhbluebird we all were. It's all we had for entertainment
Lol 😂 me Too
I wanna cry, I wanna laugh. Watching these videos AUTOMATICALLY takes me back to being a teenager, in the early to mid 80s. Id give ANYTHING to go back to see my family, just one last time. ❤
I was instantly transported back in time watching this...I remember ALL of them. My God...what a trip!
I remember practically all these commercials.
A better time in the U.S.
I remember all of them too,and it was a better time in Canada also.
@@donnakerr4997 Yep. Better time it was when America was mostly white.
No. Thats not "racist."
Its just the truth.
@@jackallen3732 I agree !!!
@@jackallen3732 Umm yeah that’s really racist
@@lauravonutassy1919 racist
Watching these commercials made my eyes well up with tears. It brought back some great childhood memories and times when life was SO much better.
Not sure I agree. Yes we are a lot older and unhealthier, but the computers, internet and cell phones has made life so much more convenient. The fact that any information or products can be obtained 24 hours 7 days a week is simply amazing.
@@davidr4523 Murder, drugs, not being able to trust our leaders... I think that's what people mean by 'the good ole days.' The morality back then was so much different. Everyone seemed happy & tolerant of each other. We celebrated & made fun of our differences instead of using them as tools against each other. No one smiles in commercials or on tv now. People have made being happy something to be looked down on or ridiculed
@@criconinvestments7723 As a black man in America your rose colored glasses might be the strongest ever. Celebrated are differences my ass.
@@vtjr812 So what d'you call all the laughing at racial jokes or homosexual jokes that went on back then?
@@criconinvestments7723 lol is this a real question. I call it being white straight and delusional if you think everyone not white and straight was laughing with you
I was born in '72, but I'm still old enough to remember about 75% of these commercials. So many memorable jingles! The one with the Indian made me tear up as a child.
In regards to the Oscar Mayer weiner ad, I remember the neighborhood kids singing at the end, " 'cuz Jimmy Carter has a way of screwing up the USA." LOL
🎶My President has a first name, it's J-I-M-M-Y. My president has a second name, it's C-A-R-T-E-R....
There were too many letters in the second name, and it didn't really fit, so you had to double-time on "T-E"
I’m 79 and having a blast to the past😂😊
THIS TOOK ME BACK TO A SIMPLER TIME IN LIFE, ONE I'LL NEVER GET BACK. IT WAS WORTH EVERY SECOND.
Those definitely were the days! I would love to time travel back to that time!❤
This was a great sampling of the best. Thanks for the memories! ❤
I was born in 1985 and I remember most of these commercials
