God this thread has got some of the old jingles stuck in my head. Damn Louie The Fly!!!!

Also remember the "World Class" series of Holden ads as well as "Holden - Australia's Driving Future".

And some ad I can't remember what it was but the parrot saying "I KNOW!" in a stupid voice - couple of friends I know still say it in that voice whenever they say "I know".

I still can't hear or think of the "Chicken Tonight" song without cracking up laughing at the Late Show Takeoff.
