- A compilation of Burger King TV Advertisements from the 1960's to the mid-70's. The burgers are bigger at Burger King. Home of the Whopper. Have it your way. America's Burger King.
Well, at least back then they were honest about how the burgers really look.
no theyre honest. as a matter of fact i just seen a bk comercial for two whopper meals for 10 dollars. the patties are so thin, i came here just to see what they use to look like. i should make a then and now video about what we use to get vs now.
On the second ad, American speaks its mind, that lady on the right with a short dress is proof baby boomer women were just as hot as milliniel ones.
Those Burger King clerks have such lovely singing voices.
@@libertyforamericanow they hide declining dollar value by making people pay increasing costs over time for less product and or lower quality product.
@@ronaldfoster8673 Did women change or something? I know that whyte women had gone from ironing board behinds to more robust similar to blak women. THAT is odd.
Loved the "have it your way" jingle. Deserved a billboard position, both the white and black version. Miss those old commercials and way of life back then. Need some genius to make a time machine.
boy have i got some news for you
i got some news.
This aged perfectly
Lmao
Be careful what you wish for…
1970: fun and energetic commercial
2023: whopper whopper whopper whopper
Shows how we sank creatively.
Whatever happened to our creativity.
1974: May I help you sir?
2023:whatcha order bro
Even though I was born in 83, I wish TV ads were like this. Now when I see the ads today they are so bland and boring. :(
I know, right? We need commercials like this today. Now I'm gonna go get me a double wapper.
Come on, you like the Geico ads. Admit it. And who doesn't like Jake from State Farm?
@@LaKellita well on a side note not really
uh ok
@@LaKellita omg I quit insurance based on the price, and ads
Wow, they could never get away with that first ad today...
Yeah I can just imagine the explosion on social media that ad would cause if it came out today. Hell, that might put burger king out of business
Yeah white people would get offended on behalf of the native Americans and the only people that would go to Burger King would be native Americans
Honestly tho
Fr lol
groovy!
Whoa, BK used the "Where's the beef?" slogan before Wendys! Wow
I never knew this until i saw the early BK commercial..."OK where's the meat?" i was like "Well OK then.."
It was much funnier when that old woman shouted out: "Where's the beef!"
@@patricksaxon3983 Her name is Clara Peller.
@@BenSchubert1995 WAS
"What is this, a MEAT STRIKE??"
Comedy sure was different in the 1960s.
And yet 😂they still made Johnson jokes. 😂
Back then the workers sang to the customers. Today they’re like “what the hell you want?”
Or it's we're declining your order right reserved to refuse service
This was when Burger King started a nationwide campaign to make its name in the burger field. At one point there were dozens of Burger chains like Burger Chef that was known for Star Wars toys. Burger King is now a Canadian/American company that also owns Tim Hortons, whom people near Canada have heard of and seen in hockey arenas. I prefer BK to MCD. The whopper came before the big mac and became a huge success.
Burger chef was great but I don't remember any commercials.
They were only available in the Mid West. Indiana based. Tragedy struck the night before the Jonestown massacre which led to the Company’s complete collapse as they folded by 1995.
Yes Whopper 1954 was a reply to beat McDonalds Cheeseburger. In 1968 a McDonald's franchisee made a bigger burger to compete with the Whopper. When Ray Croc saw it, it had no name. One of the female execs said: "How about the BIG MAC as in the big McDonald's burger?" Rest is history.
Is it just me or does the whooper looks a lot bigger back then compared to what it looks now?
yes they were.Now i can pick one up with 3 fingers.Back then it did take 2 hands. they were huge. the bun was enormous.
+warr machine65 Oh
They be ripping people off
No you just bigger
They Whoppers were bigger in the'70's, and the Whaler was better tasting than the current fish sandwich.
3:45 young man with blonde hair orange shirt. This was me I'm old now and a millionaire thanks to this commercial. AMA
Congrats!
wow cool. congrats!
Awesome, congratulations 🎉 ❤
Can you pay off my families debt? I need about 26K :(
That’s my favorite 70’s Burger King commercial I love that commercial
4:16 I used to work as a grocery store cashier and whenever the customer wanted their stuff bagged in a stupid way I would always play this song in my head
It's so cool the theme they sing is back with the new commercials sweeping TV. I prefer these older ones but no wonder they went back to these as reference, so catchy. BK, have it your way!!! Lol
“YOU RULE!”
1974:you can choose the toppings you want
2023:you can choose the burger you want
I love the classic Burger King commercials! The last three are my favorites! I was born in the late fall of 1978! The beautiful and classic jingles are performed perfectly! A lot of great talent, writing and directing in these commercials! This entertaining, historical and interesting! Thank you for posting and sharing this!
Damn, this really hits me right between the nostalgia and the "ol' days" longings zones. The fadedness and the gaps between the commercials are even nostalgia material, with clicks, pops, and an oddly comforting analog hum of old TV.
The jingles, the slogans, and those ludicrous outfits worn by happy, singing, dancing servers...can we feasibly go back to them?
The one with the Indian (the old-timey word for Native Americans) was new to me, and I loved his "groovy!" remark; they were obviously playing off the "crying Indian" PSAs. The office gang treated the small burger with remarks that wouldn't have been out of place discussing some dude's tallywhacker, and I had to laugh. I was completely surprised as to why the detective ordered his perp "no Whopper!" until the end. Very creative.
The Detective One is incredibly Clever!And yes, the 1969 Native American ad was mocking the Crying Indian Don't Litter PSA which first aired in 1968.
The Office Ad was both an innuendo and satirical jab at Racist jokes being told in Offices. Its why they had a Black Extra in it. To reflect the social culture changes at the time in the late 60s. Fact: Burger King was one of the Earliest Integrated Fast Food Chains in the South. Florida Chains were Serving Blacks as early as 1957. BK expanded because it was one of the very first chains to be marketed to minorities. Kroc was super racist, and REFUSED to market McDonalds to "Spooks" until 1971.
5:09 is stuck in my head
It’s such a bop ❤️❤️❤️
Agreed, but THIS even slaps too! 2:31
Man, is there a story for you.
No stuck you head
Commercials used to kick ass!!
I recall the last one clearly enough. The folky tune (reminds me of the Poppy Family or the Original Caste, or Coke's "I'd Like To Teach The World") swelling into a chorus of voices, with its gorgeous visuals, warms the cockles of my heart. Were all ads as uplifting today as this one...
Burger King America Loves Burgers jingle was performed by Florence Warner.
Yes now we know where's the meet in a Burger King ad inspired Where's the Beef in Wendy's commercials.
I have worked at two...i have heard years ago the shakes where wonderful and the whopper was bigger and more juicy.
The sheer quality of so many goods and services seem to have been better in general during the 60's-70's. I remember the burrito joint a few blocks down from where I live used to sell burritos that were not only bigger, but more flavorful....... and they included chips AND salsa. These days, it just seems like they're skimping on everything.... the chips and salsa cost extra.... and even then, the portion sizes are smaller and the chips aren't even made of corn anymore. dafuq?
Yes, the whooper was definitely bigger.
That's true!
@@jerrychisholm8565 Orange Julius and Wendy's were the best back then Dairy Queen too. Then we sold our American soul to quantity over quality.
Thanks alot for posting.I have a BURGER KING right beside my Neighborhood.
the whopper jr has been getting very much smaller if you havent noticed
"Lieutenant, if I want WHOPPER, I will have a damn WHOPPER!" is what I would've said.
Thanks for the memories. "Hold the Pickle! Hold the Lettuce!" ha ha ha
the lietanent and the guy he handcuff with reminded me of barnacle boy and mermaid man on spongebob when he said he can't handle the adult size krabby patty.
That's probably what Spongebob is referencing.
Ya I know I'm old lol but I remember seeing some of these commercials. The native American dude was a take on the one shedding a tear at the litter people were throwing out. We never thought twice about the silly stereotypes back then. Different times, different perspectives. I actually liked a lot of the commercials back then. Some were even groovy lol. These days commercials just suck.
The "Indian" from the original Litter commercial was "Iron Eyes Cody" , a famous Native American actor in westerns. The thing about him that no one knew is that he had no Indian blood at all and was 100% Sicilian . He lied for his whole career and was able to because this was before the net and information was hard to find. He even married a Native American woman and lived like that for his whole life.
The Indian in this commercial is Chief Wild Eagle of the Hekawi tribe, he pioneered the Indian souvenir business.
@@JENDALL714 Frank "Little Eagle" DeKova. His Father was Italian, Mother Powattan.
Agp army where y’all at!?!?! RIP AGP 💔
I never knew burger king was so old!
Derrick Perez It started in Miami in 1954, Thats 64 years ago... not as old as you're making it sound
It started in Miami back in '54. But didn't expand Nationwide until 1965. Two Years after McDonalds did.
GrowlingLucario7 actually it started in Jacksonville, FL , the headquarters is in Miami though
Tornado1994 actually it started in Jacksonville, FL , the headquarters is in Miami though
5:55 The singer is Florence Warner.
Yep. She sang We're With You on ABC jingle for 1984-1985 season.
The Burger King Commerical and Jingles are Excellent!
It makes me feel homesick of the 70s as a kid back then.
It was an awesome time....except for worrying about possible nuclear annihilation. You wouldn't worry about that now...wait a minute....
4:10 whopper whopper whopper whopper, but it is very old and very vintage
So the first commercial was funny as hell 20 years ago. Today it's considered racist, but still funny.
Its not racist. Its Silly!
Yeah pretty much a stereotype which I am sure native Americans probably did not and still do not appreciate. But I laughed out loud when the native American in the ad said "GROOVY."
I’m half Native American and spoken to actual Indigenous people about this classic 1969 ad, They Love It! They think it’s utterly silly!
It's basically making fun of them taking over the land and forcing natives to assimilate into their culture.
That is so sad, cultures must be errassed.
6:40 The dog was like:
"Hey guys, where's my whopper?"
I like the BK America Loves Burgers commercial from 1976. The one with vocals by Florence Warner.
I can see why being a jingle writer was a thing back then
Love the soul version the best!
I thought that was a great one, and very funny.
3:49
I guess we found where the
Whopper whopper meme was originally inspired from and I loved it
4:51
That was pretty catchy love the trio
That jingle introduced in the ad beginning at 3:47 really defined those commercials in the 1970s, but now that it's been revived to a degree, I'm curious:
Who was actually SINGING that Burger King jingle back then, and is she still alive?
Is it Judy Collins, Joan Baez or Florence Warner?
Loved those little 'Burger Bundles' mid-80's I remember.
70s we're sooooo wonderful and innocent.
Best commercials ever
All these companies should definitely re-use the still applicable older commercials. It'd be pretty cool.
I like the first whooper song better than the new one
Great Commerical Jingle Songs!
Yes They Were Classic Back Then!
Very funny commercials! If fast food servers started singing to me, I am going to run away.
WOW ... I highly enjoyed these! Big push for the Whopper!
Groovy!
That's how you can tell the ad was from 1969!
im holding my pickle
Adam Lewis Im hold my onions
I wan hold
It takes 2 hands to hold the pickle
🤨
Those are some groovy hats.
4:10-4:18 the way the Burger King girl sings I would call her a Burger Angel
The actor in the first "native American" ad was actually an Italian-American by the name of Frank De Kova. He played Chief Wild Eagle in he 1960's western spoof comedy, "F Troop", and why he was picked for the commercial. The commercial here reminds us to some degree of the "crying Indian" commercial of the early 1970's here: ruclips.net/video/uGu4AwL5Kho/видео.html played by "Iron Eyes Cody" a Sicilian-American actor.
De Kova was Italian and Cheyenne Native American. His mother was The granddaughter of a Cheyenne tribe official in Niagara Falls. His Dad was a Sicilian Immigrant. De Kova played Indians because he was actually naturally Native American. He was actually one of the FIRST to be naturally cast as one. Nicknamed “Little Eagle”. Don Franks(Cree Summer’s Dad) was also Half Native American. He was French Canadian and Saskatchewan. His nickname was “Red Bear” some of his friends called him “Running Cub”.
De Kova was actually Naturally Native American.
The good thing about Burger King is that you can burp 3 hours later and still taste it!
Love jingle Have it your way still 2023
Well, that face at 0:53 is going to haunt my dreams…
If comercials were like this then i wouldn't skip a single one
Now these were the days
@4:10 they should bring those big hats in 2016 lol

Burger King is the besto
They still include the "have it your way" at 3:54 and today's commercial
Employees handling ingredients with their bare hands at 3:20. My how things have changed.
I so remember. have it your way from the 1970s wow!!!!
i actually enjoyed that lol.
I believe all these ads are post-1971, as the Iron Eyes Cody Keep America Beautiful PSA debuted in 1971.
There was one of which a boy flicks pickles off of his burger. It's a BK ad from 1975-6.
5:48
*manager kicks down office door*
GOD DAMNIT LADIES GET BACK TO WORK AND FIX MY DOOR
Don Draper wrote the first two, the third he perfected after the Coke commercial (lol and going AWOL and meeting the burger grip guy).
The fries and the burgers are fucking delicious
Little did they know that have it your way was gonna become a internet meme 49 years later
At least now they bought that classic logo back lol
I used to think Burger King was living in the shadow of McDonald's. But I'm sure they're just friendly competitors
The Diana Ross black version of the song was awesome.
Well this started out perfect
4:10 this is where they got the whopper song music
Did anyone notice they were handcuffed together at 3:32
The joke is that he's a Crook that's been arrested and that his punishment is that he doesn't get to have a Whopper since it needs two hands. The Arresting Detective orders a Whopper to add insult to injury.
@@Tornado1994 Lol, they didn't get it.
I love how the guy's paper hat keeps hitting the top of the window and he keeps having to adjust it. And every time it makes this crinkly noise. It's hard for me to find stuff that makes me laugh but this scene just kills me for some reason.
Hooow? Groovy...LOL
3:45 the commercial that started the mocking of the losing team in NFL games.
That moment when your QB throws a pick 6 and then this song comes on
I wanna live like that in 2023
1. early 1969 2. another 1969 3. mid 1969 4. 1969 again 5. 1974 6. another 1974 7. 1977
Oof those press ons gonna end up in the burger girl! 😂
Not gonna lie with you guys but being born in the 70s or 80s are literally the best years, I seriously wish I was born in the 70s mostly, screw the phones, games and other advanced stuff bought in through the 80s and 2000's.
My Grandfather was born in the 50's and im alot more interested in whats going on in the 50s and the 40s thats when my Grandma was born in, but yeah, I love the 19th Century! ❤ 🖤🤍 ❤
You'd actually want to be born in the 60s to be old enough to enjoy the 70s and 80s.
If My local had singin' waitresses and customer service, I'd be there. Now. If time, technology and politics had not changed everything, we'd all be in that world to stay. These people had neither PC nor PCs, and they were still getting on day to day! Now, this is the age that is barely surviving. PS, those uniforms were da Bomb!
Wow, never knew Sam Snead did a BK commercial. Eating BK burgers must be why he has 82 PGA tour wins tied currently #1 overall with Tiger Woods. Wonder if Tiger ever ate BK...LOL
BK is so nasty now. I haven't had a good meal there in years. I won't go anymore. It's nothing like it was when I was growing up. It started going down in the early 2000's in my opinion.
Do yourself a favor and splurge on a Wendy’s Baconator! You will see why people always say “you get what you pay for”. If you’re in Canada they are on sale for $5 right now.
They fires are nasty now
Jurnee Naomi compares to other fries from other fast food places in my city I’d take Burger King Fries over those
I know what you mean by your statement about it. Hamburger or maybe cheeseburger was actually tastier and delicious back then. If you actually had $10 you can actually feed several family members but now $10 would actually feed oneself and the burgers taste almost tasteless.
Why can't burger king sing to me when I buy something now?
Before "Where's the Beef", there was "Where's the Meat" 1:15
They kept the Have It Your Way jingle after all these years.
4:10 I didn’t know they had the have it your way song back then! All though they didn’t say “at BK, have it your way!” Say the line lady!
From 1965 to 1975, here's a compilation of Burger King commercials.🙂
*1976.
I remember when I was a kid and Burger King coming to our area.. $0.10 Whopper and $0.15 with cheese.. McDonald's had the $0.10 Cheeseburgers.. The good old days for sure.. That's back when we still had drive-in theaters and you were allowed to smoke anywhere and everywhere, even at the dr's office.. lol..
And back when Little Caesars slogan was pizza pizza, because you got 2 pizzas for the price of one
I remember most of these commercials, damn I'm old.
LOL @5:11 the wanna be SUPREMES singing....stop! in the name of the burger!
supremes ballard lol
they didn't include the one with the jingle: "There's a Burger King close to you. Try a Whopper, order two. Best burger buy for miles around. Shakes and fries, how does that sound? Burger King, Burger King, Burger King.
Man, I miss eating a whopper with no vegetables except for tomatoes and extra ketchup... And then I walk home eating it while letting my mini 4wd go...
Would it kill you add a slice of cheese? How much heavier would it be? And how much more expensive should it be? A series of questions that continues to confound me to this day!
4:20 that look alone makes me wanna reenact this commercial playing the role of the mom.
Well, watch NFL for that one
