That's what I'm saying, they repeat the item too many times and it sounds very repetitve. Plus the jingle is something I would hear from a remix of the original and not with ACTUAL orchestra instruments and such.
In the soul version, you would most likely hear it as a final song in a movie before the credits roll. In the original version, you'd hear it in an American sitcom where the family goes to get burgers.
When they busted out into singing in the first one it genuinely took me aback. I wasn't expecting it to sound like a real song. Thats very rare that a commercial has any music or singing that sounds good lyrics aside. This is second only to the education connection song.
It's because even jingles 50 years ago had melody, harmony and music theory in them. Everything was based on it. This was the era of Elton John and the Commodores. People SANG in 1974.
Jingle writing was a lucrative job back then. I heard a jingle writer say jingles died with TiVo & the ability to skip commercials. Many jingles were bangers as they were one of the most common, memorable & successful types of advertising. My babysitter ever wanted to be a jingle singer. If you walked around to almost any school yard at recess, you'd almost always hear kids singing jingles. I was a shy little girl & as I would walk around our parking lot at recess, different cliques would sing during jingles.
People these days don’t understand a world where you weren’t allowed to customize your fast food order. I vividly remember when Burger King broke the mold and announced we could customize our food order.
It was the burger king that made my life hell in McDonald's. Fuck burger king. The hate is well deserved now 😂😂. The amount of customisation you need to complete in a short time.
That’s actually why people were so racist in the past. They were so upset that the black versions of fast food advertisements were so much catchier than the white version.
@@DarthTofu2 rofl. Imagine if future generations were taught this in history. That all racism stemmed from a perceived slight in a fast food commercial.

The premise of the Soul version is the guy saw the original version on TV, and he wanted the person behind the counter to sing to him just like the person behind the counter on the commercial sang to those customers.
Julian D. Christopher. I strongly believe that's the gentleman's name in the Soul version. You'll see him again in X3 Last Stand as the prison gaurd who threatens to mace Mystique in the face. LOL!
Yeah, they should've shown that version 1st. It would've been a lot more exciting to see it in order. In the beginning, I was wondering how he knew which version was the original because they were shown out of order.
I just can’t believe they are only each a minute long? I felt like I watch an entire episode of a tv show with each of those, I mean there’s truly a fully realized plot in both of these (introduction, rising action, conflict and resolution)
The soul version solos. Man I lowkey miss black culture, especially music from the 70s and back where you had to have real instrumentation. Just made everything sound so much bigger and brighter, more epic. When the Japanese invented that damn sampler and drum machine the music suffered a bit, and I say that as someone who loves rap/new jack swing etc
It’s so funny that you specifically blame the Roland TR808 lol and I kinda agree. I miss old black soul and funk. Bass, brass, guitar, drums are all dead now. 4 talented people can all be fit into one producer.
Oh yeah suffered as if there want bad songs before! You blame rap machine and not tb-909 but they still try to preserve black and Hispanic culture with house music. With some ups and downs here and there but still going! Blame capitalism for the exploitation and now making generic blob, blob, blob, yeah! It’s generic rap that your complaining at.
@@FritzMonorail It's a completely fair criticism, though. Electronics have pervaded just about every genre, making a lot of backing tracks appear more similar, especially in rap where the emphasis is heavily on the lyrics rather than the instrumental. Simply put, it's a lot easier to get samples and electronic beats than to learn a whole band's worth of instruments. Musical talent has indeed taken a bit of a backseat, and it has been for years.

Holy crap. The sheer nerdiness of the original version juxtaposed with the groove of the soul version of the commercial has got me howling with laughter. You can hear the advertising agent pitching the commercial to the executives from Burger King. "Gentlemen, how do you sell hamburgers to white people?", stops for a dramatic pause, "Well by golly, you give them what they want." There are murmurs of befuddlement wafting through the board room. The cocky young advertising agent cuts through the tension, "Pickles! I don't know about you gentlemen, but I find them too spicy. And while we're getting rid of the spiciness let's toss lettuce too. Choice, gentlemen. We give the customer the right to choose, and we let them know we at Burger King are pleased to deliver them a burger customized to their exact tastes." He hits the lights, the projector comes on and the Hold the Pickle, Hold the Lettuce anthem is unveiled to the executives who feel their chests swell with pride. Yes! This is glorious. Let the customer know it is our privilege to deliver them a customized dining experience. Stick that in your milkshake and suck it, McDonalds. The executives gather around the advertising agent and begin to congratulate him, shaking his hands and patting his back. A smile spreads across the face of the advertising agent. Nailing the Burger King account is going to get him such a promotion. Then a voice off in the dark corner of the room says "Um, yeah we also want to sell burgers to black people." All eyes turn expectantly back to the advertising agent. A moment of hesitation twitches across his brow before he says with great confidence, "Let me ask my black friend Jeff about that and I'll get right back to you." The board room erupts in a flurry of cheers.
He thinks to himself "By golly Tim, you've done it. Why I can't wait to get home and tell Susie and the girls the good news. This is going to be the best meatloaf night yet. And then when the girls have been put to bed I can ask Susie if any of her friends know a black person I can talk to."
The soul version is the better of the two,I was born in the seventies,this brings back memories,you definitely don't see vintage commercials like these anymore.
@@DavidSaintOnge2007 No, but the civil rights movement had practically just ended at the time, and the major societal effects still hadn’t set in very much, so businesses were incentivized to account for culture when attempting to gain patronage from different groups, which of course led to this.
Soul music was a great moment in music's history. Where distinctive voices and feelings of emotion were put out in their voices to express the story of the song, to catch that SOUL they had. Good examples are Dionne Warwick, Aretha Franklin, Al Green, The Brothers Johnson, The Temptations, Four Tops, Stevie Winder, The Spinners, The Staple Singers, Whitney Houston, James Brown and the list just goes on and on.
Soul music isn’t dead. There are a lot of artists who are coming up with new and refreshing songs. I hope soul lovers in this thread can learn to appreciate them too. 💕 All of the singers you mentioned in your comment are fantastic too! Thanks to my nana, I love The Temptations and Stevie Wonder as that’s all I listened to when I was small and I just turned 20. 😂
I genuinely really like both. The original has a beautiful singing voice which kinda does it for me, but the soul version has great energy to it, especially the way the commercial is presented.
Soul version is better, but these two commercials are better then the new whopper commercial. Edit: I respect the style the new whopper commercial has!
Companies should genuinely start making ads like those again I dont want to get edited versions of my food on a turntable to some dramatic music and slo mo
I think both are great in their own way if you need some energy to wake up then the soul version is the way to go but if you need to unwind and relax then the original version is perfect for that
I like how the white version had a grandfather taking his grandchildren to Burger King with haste. The way that they were basically running to the counter to order. Lmao
The black version sounds more cheery and happy. But the white version sounds soo sad and slow. But either way both is good tho.i like em’ :) if only every time when i go up to the counter and tell em what I want they just show me the worst attitudes ever. :(
I prefer the soul just because the people in the original sound so surprised they can modify their sandwich, like go back and watch when the lady orders extra ketchup and her astonished look they can add more sauce to get burger.
That's because that _was_ astonishing back then. BK was one of the first (fast-food) restaurants to push for the 'customers can modify their orders' thing. Before that, the point was fast-food was specifically _fast_ - no special orders.
The lady behind the original later performed variations of the jingle for other Burger King commercials-- --but her name, and whether she still lives, ARE BOTH STILL ABSOLUTELY UNKNOWN!!!
The original is nice, makes you think "I think I might have Burger King for lunch." But the soul version, that makes you think "Yo I need Burger King for lunch!"

Here's what I wonder about: we find these old commercials charming looking back on them vs what we're disgusted with in modern times But did people at that time think this was garbage like we think new stuff is now?
Oh, yes. TV shows in the 1970s like Carol Burnett and even the educational PBS kids' TV show The Electric Company spoofed the cheesiness of the happy, smiling, singing TV commercials of the time.
@Some Random Vids Technically, no. While the lead vocalists sing melodies of the same pitch, the rhythms at which they do so are quite unique when compared together. This, along with the fact that the two have very distinctly different accompanying chords (through backup vocals and instrumentation), would indicate that they have separate, if similar, melodies. The "Whopper Whopper" song simplifies the vocals to primarily just the lead, which is stylistically closer to the original version, as well as more following the original's rhythm. All three songs are obviously connected, but subtle differences in their composition make Bryant's initial claim perfectly reasonable.

Soul version didn’t include a family, but instead it had a single man who asked a stranger to sing for him. 🤔
Still way better than the modern version
WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER🔊🔊
Flashback in the 70's
Im Hispanic, I prefer the soul version
Here's what I wonder about: we find these old commercials charming looking back on them vs what we're disgusted with in modern times
But did people at that time think this was garbage like we think new stuff is now?
Oh, yes. TV shows in the 1970s like Carol Burnett and even the educational PBS kids' TV show The Electric Company spoofed the cheesiness of the happy, smiling, singing TV commercials of the time.
Original because it's the same melody as the new "Whopper Whopper Whopper Whopper" commercial
They're both the same melody
@Some Random Vids Technically, no. While the lead vocalists sing melodies of the same pitch, the rhythms at which they do so are quite unique when compared together. This, along with the fact that the two have very distinctly different accompanying chords (through backup vocals and instrumentation), would indicate that they have separate, if similar, melodies.
The "Whopper Whopper" song simplifies the vocals to primarily just the lead, which is stylistically closer to the original version, as well as more following the original's rhythm. All three songs are obviously connected, but subtle differences in their composition make Bryant's initial claim perfectly reasonable.
@@joshmiller3055 technically yes stop being dumb
they both went off
Soul is way better. The original doesn’t have energy
Didnt realize they would re-ue the same melody in these commercials for their WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER jingle
Whopper Whopper Whopper Whopper junior Double triple Whopper
When you season your commercials 😂
Both better than whopper whopper whopper whopper
The second one is like eating a pop tart with no sugar.
Where are these ladies now? Grandmas loving beautiful family I hope.
Those old white people were scared at 0:36.
More like wtf is this 😂
They didnt look scared.
This was why my food always was served late!!! All the workers would not stop singing!!!!!
I like the soul one more.
Classic 70's
