REMEMBER THIS? 1989 McDonalds "Menu Song" Commercial

REMEMBER THIS OLD RAP?
BIG MAC,BLT

SCROLL ALL THE WAY DOWN FOR MORE INFO

The McDonald's $1,000,000 Menu Song was an instant-win promotion created as part of an advertising campaign, which ran from 1988 to early 1989. As the name suggests, the song, which was a remake of Reunion's 1974 hit single "Life Is a Rock (But the Radio Rolled Me)", incorporates all of the items (at that time) on the McDonald's menu: sandwiches, other lunch/dinner items, breakfast items, dessert items, and drinks, in that order.




Flexi discs containing the song were attached to advertising sheets. On most versions of the recording, the singers were not able to recite the song perfectly from start to finish; when the singers made a mistake, the record was over. If the singer was able to complete the song, the record was a $1,000,000 instant winner.



80,000,000 records were distributed, and only one of them was a winner.[10] The promotion was won by Salem, Virginia resident Charlene Price, who used the money to purchase the convenience store that she worked at.[11]


It began as follows:


“ Big Mac, Mc DLT, a Quarter-Pounder with some cheese, Filet-O-Fish, a hamburger, a cheeseburger, a Happy Meal. McNuggets, tasty golden french fries, regular or larger size, and salads: chef or garden, or a chicken salad oriental. Big Big Breakfast, Egg McMuffin, hot hot cakes, and sausage. Maybe biscuits, bacon, egg and cheese, a sausage, danish, hash browns too. And for dessert hot apple pies, and sundaes three varieties, a soft-serve cone, three kinds of shakes, and chocolatey chip cookies. And to drink a Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, and orange drink, A Sprite and coffee, decaf too, A lowfat milk, also an orange juice. I love McDonald's, good time great taste, and I get this all at one place
