Stale 3

Post by nowmedical »

one for my English colleagues -

was it my imagination or did the instrumental coda from the end of "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head" crop up on a TV advert in the UK recently - perhaps even Gary Lineker and Walkers crisps?

Maybe I'm mistaken, I may need to start therapy...

Nowmedical,
I am not from the UK, so I don' know, bt I do think that that could be something that could be used as such...I'll be interested in what your English colleague has to say.

On "The Family Guy" has anyone seen the episode where Stewie is in the back yard sunbathing and the tune playing on the radio is Bacharach's own cover version of "I Say A Little Prayer"! Interesting choice.

No it was not your imagination, Raindrops Keep Falling On my Head was used in a recent Walkers crisp advert here in the U.K, staring Gary Lineker and Cat Dealy.

That’s one of the reasons why I like this board.
