I am working on an activity about advertising and I am trying to find out if the 'jingle' on an old soap powder advertisement is actually a popular song of the 1940s because it sounds so familiar but I was not born then so it isn't a distant childhood memory. These are the lyrics Nice day for a wedding The sky's a wonderful blue Nice day to be married Especially to a beautiful girl like you. Heaven's around the corner The month of course is June Such a nice day, old shoes and rice day And we are on our honeymoon It then goes on about how they got together because of a soap powder. I have done a search for the lyrics to no avail, so maybe it is the tune that is familiar. You can listen to the whole thing here http://australianscreen.com.au/titles/persil-washing-powder/clip1/ if that helps. I would like the students (Yr 5/6) to look at how popular tunes/songs are used or converted for use in advertising so an answer would be so useful.
