When I was a little lad ... there was a cartoon ad on the telly, the Milk Rap. It had all the different types of milk bottles breaking / bopping and rapping about their flavours. My favourite was the cream bottle who did a mean backspin.
Now I'm having trouble finding any evidence that the ad ever existed! No Youtube clips. No-one I've asked remembers it. I can't find it in our cultural archives.
If you saw it, remember the lyrics, have it on an old video ... let me know!
PS. Yes there are a few recent Milk Raps from the USA but they aren't what I mean.
PPS. OK "flavours" is wrong. You know, "full cream", "cream", "homogenised", "skim".
We're goin-a do 'the milkbottle'
We're gonna do the milk bottle
Well the silver top duh duh dada da da
and the da da da is homogenised
(Yeah, I am trying to find it too - It was great!)
this cool white cat with a
this cool white cat with a silver hat
thingy thingy thingy is FULL CREAM
the milk bottle huh - i'll bet you're right - i've been searching for the wrong thing all along!
milk bottle rap
I remember it... vaguely
thanks mic, now i know i
thanks mic, now i know i wasn't dreaming ...
The Milk Bottle!
From memory:
Everybody ready?
We're going to learn the MILK BOTTLE!
The silver cap is a milk lovers dream
that's why we call it FULL CREAM
The blue striped cap is no surprise
it's what we call HOMOGENIZED
The green striped cap tells you that
this lean mean bottle has NO FAT
The red cap surely is just the thing
when all you want is real FRESH CREAM
*scratch*
So learn the bottle whatever you do
It's milk man, may the
FORCE
BE
WITH
YOU!
... I can't find a video either ...
some more of the rap I think
the green strip cap tells u that this mean lean bottle is non fat
the red cap shortie is just the thing when all u want is real fresh cream
so learn the bottle? etc etc ,, yep great ad would love to see it again..
