How about some TV and radio commercials whose jingles are (or used to be) set to the tune of oldies songs?
For those from the L.A. area, here are a couple of local ones.
Cerritos Auto Square (a car dealership in southeast Los Angeles County): "Take the 605 to South Street, come on, it's all there! Take the 605 to South Street, Cerritos Auto Square!" (a parody of "South Street" by the Orlons) -- this commercial jingle dates back to at least the 1990s.
Keyes on Van Nuys (a car dealership in the San Fernando Valley): "Keyes Keyes Keyes, Keyes on Van Nuys! Keyes Keyes Keyes, Keyes on Van Nuys! Two thousand cars; cars, trucks, and vans. We make it happen. 'Cause we're rockin' and a-rollin', wheelin' and a-dealin' at Keyes Keyes Keyes, Keyes on Van Nuys!" (a parody of "Barbara Ann" originally by the Regents, later covered by the Beach Boys) -- this one is still in use today.
Now for the national ones.
Viagra: Viva Viagra! Viva Viagra! Viva, Viva Viagra! (a parody of Elvis Presley's "Viva Las Vegas") -- from an ad that ran maybe a year or two ago.
Jiffy Lube: "Change, change, change. Don't be a fool. Come on(?) and change your oil (change your oil)(?) at Jiffy Lube." (parody of Aretha Franklin's "Chain of Fools") -- this parody was heard in their radio ad that ran in the mid-1990s.
This is all I can think of right now. Feel free to share memories of such commercial jingles, either local to where you live(d) or national.
