1980'S PSA ANTI DRUG COMMERCIAL HAPPY BIRTHDAY
It started like someone above said with a young woman and it would start off singing the happy birthday song and then it would start singing How old are you now and the music was distorted and her face got older and older until they just threw a sheet over her. That commercial scared me so bad that everytime it came on I would hide my head and cover my ears and sing loudly until it went off. It came on in the 1980's and I have searched the internet for it and can't find it. That is the scariest thing I have ever saw on TV, and I still don't think I could watch it to this day and I'm 25 years old now.
409
409, grease cleaner, yeah, it's the one 409, this cleaner puts grease on the run 409, 409, put grease on the run
7-UP
Flip Wilson was at a roller disco rink advertising 7-up in 1981 wearing a shiny jacket. It aired on TVland retromercials.
7-Up
At the beginning it's a dry, hot, miserable day in a city somewhere and then you see a woman lying on the beach with sunglasses on and then she opens a can of 7-Up in slow-mo and then it starts raining-not storming, just like a light rain, just enough to cool everything down-and then you see scenes of everybody in the city happy, laughing, and sometimes dancing in the rain, each with a can or bottle of 7-Up in hand and the entire time the theme is being sung by some guy, "Feels So Good Comin' Down!" and at the end all you see is a can of regular 7-Up and a can of diet 7-Up and at the bottom you see a caption that says "Feels So Good Comin' Down!" It aired in '86, I think.
7-Up
There was a gorgoeus guy driving in a hot car at full speed. He gets pulled over by the police. The officers were reading his rights. The female officer starts checking him out, grinning at him as she takes of her hat and goes up to the guy. Then she gets in the car with him! The other police officers were flabbergasted! The theme song throughout the commercial was ' Are You Up For It '
7-Up Gold
This was a cinnamon-flavored soda that wasn't around for very long... they used the Steppenwolf song "Wild Thing" as a jingle.
7-up
The Unnnnnnnnnnn-cola
7-up
In late November each year, there was always a commercial played that ushered in the holiday season: the dancing 7-up snowman. From what I can remember, a little boy looks outside and sees a sad snowman, all alone. He creeps outside and gives him a 7-up, and the snowman drinks it and dances around. It's been about four years since I've seen this, and it doesn't feel like Christmas without it.
7-up
The Jamaican guy saying "crisp and clean and no caffeine"
7UP
7Up was the "uncola" I recall the commercials ( whole bunch of them ) with a heavyset balding man ( not Kojack ) And he would laugh & sip the beverage & say "7up; the un-cola....ah ha ahhhhh"

Never had it, never will hahahaha.
