Comes from the days of radio. When all advertising had to be audio, a good way to get people to remember your product was to have a catchy short tune associated with it, often mentioning the product or company's name. This is even common with phone numbers for their services. While not quite as common as they used to be, jingles work, so they will probably be around as long as we have commercials. They can even become quite popular and be released as a single. Some well-known jingles have been around literally for decades, periodically having their instrumentation and vocals updated to sound more modern. Sometime an agency will expend money rather than talent and use an existing song. |

Transformers: Generation 1 had a ton of different jingles done up for its toy commercials, tying into the product being advertised. Most of these were simply modified versions of the theme songs of the corresponding cartoon with different lyrics. But would eventually delve off into their own thing starting in 1987. The same applies to its sister line G.I. Joe. | |

Most countdown shows, including American Top 40, its sister show American Country Countdown, and Rick Dees' Weekly Top 40, use jingles identifying the show for seguing into and from commercials. AT40 and ACC have additional jingles to identify which position a song is on that particular week's show. | |

In the Arthur Christmas Special Arthur's Perfect Christmas, D.W. Read really wants the toy Tina the Talking Tabby, a talking plush cat toy, having repeatedly heard its advertising jingle. Arthur, however, hates hearing said jingle, saying that it gives him a headache. The jingle goes as follows: "What's always at your feet and is really, really sweet? It's Tina the Talking Tabby! Just scratch behind her ears and this is what you'll hear: "I'm Tina the Talking Tabby!" Oh, Tina, Tina, tiny Tina, Tina, Tina, tiny Tina, Tina the Talking Tabby..." Later, Arthur traverses a toy store at the mall and is forced to endure the chorus of "Oh, Tina, Tina, tiny Tina, Tina, Tina, tiny Tina, Tina the Talking Tabby..." seven-and-a-half times before finally escaping. | |

The sponsors of Our Miss Brooks had some pretty catchy ones: "Brush your teeth with Colgate/Colgate dental cream/It cleans your breath (what a toothpaste)/While it cleans your teeth." "Dream girl, dream girl/Beautiful Luster Cream girl/You owe your crowning glory to/A Luster Cream shampoo." (This one was set to the tune of "Toyland" from Babes in Toyland.) |

Another Dr. Pepper jingle: "I'm a Pepper, he's a Pepper, she's a Pepper, we're a Pepper, wouldn't you like to be a Pepper, too?" This was famous enough to be parodied by SCTV and Remington Steele, Ask a Ninja, and VeggieTales in one of their "Silly Songs". | |

Radio station jingles tend to date quickly as a result of general changes in musical trends. But they can also be evocative of places and times (as can be heard on oldies stations, with several such as Sirius's dedicated decade channels using period accurate packages for authenticity). BBC Radio Two's retrospective shows presented by forty-year veterans like Johnny Walker and Tony Blackburn are an opportunity to dust down and revive equally old jingles. On one level they sound ridiculously cheesy and 1960's/1970's, but for people who were around to hear them first time out, they are surprisingly evocative. In fact, one of the selling points for Radio 1's 50th anniversary was the use of many of their JAM-commissioned 1980s and early 1990s jingles played throughout, with an added "Vintage" shout at the end of them except for one jingle, which was actually resung to include it. | |

Family Guy would parody the practice of radio jingles in "Mother Tucker", by having Dumbass DJs Weenie and the Butt, and later on Brian and Stewie when they host their own raido show on the same station, abuse them to no end. | |
