To write, arrange, produce and record a tribute to "The Jingle King" and make it actually sound like a jingle is genius! Although this vocal group is clearly lip synching to their own already-completed, "stacked" recording, it is nonetheless very touching.
Some of the singers in the tribute worked later on (or some other time) for JAM? Namely, I recognized Kay Sharpe and Greg Clancy (or was it Jim Clancy)
I feel the need to revise my previous comment. I cannot say for certain that these singers are lip-synching since I was not present at the recording session. Watch it a few times and decide for yourself. If so, it does NOT diminish the reason for this wonderful tribute.
It was, indeed, lip synced. I was in the studio the day they actually sang it and ran video of the actual session. If I can figure out how to edit the thing, I'll post it.
My apology. Someone else corrected me on the fact that Jim Clancy did not pass away. I made an incorrect assumption when I didn't see him amongst the other singers in videotaped jingle sessions recorded in recent years. He's enjoying his retirement. I meant no disrespect to Mr. Clancy or his family.
Tom Merriman. You were the man!
P.S. Mr. Merriman passed away last Wednesday, November 11th, 2009 in Dallas, TX. Rest in peace, Tom, and thanks for everything!
What a beautiful song!
Out of something so sad something so beautiful!
A wonderful tribute from the group to Tom. He'd be so proud! :D

I have no idea who this man was; I am merely doing an article on lesser known celebrity passings of 2009. This was a sweet video, well done.
whoa! how'd you wangle your way on to that! lol! just wish we can see the whole thing!

It's Greg Clancy you see here...son of the late, great, awesome bass singer, Jim Clancy.
There's nothing late about bass singer Jim Clancy. He's alive and well, thank you.

Didn't Steve and Kay record for Gemmy Industries at one time?
Are these guys behind "The Rhythm Of The City" Jingle package??
