A little TV jingle nostalgia from a few years back.

I have to turn the radio down when this shit comes on, especially the original with the pervy sounding guy singing with the sing (before they created the “hard rock” version). Awful ad AND the “charity” is a scam.

It wasn't too many years back...seems like I heard that last year. Its the most annoying commercial EVER produced for TV...the kids are total morons, lacking rhythm, seemingly tone deaf, and obviously those of the owners of the bogus charity; they probably imagine themselves stars now, when in-fact, they're overly-entitled little piles of shit, just like their parents.

I'm sure the trump children wish it could have been them.

This commercial is reviled in our house. There’s a newer version with different kids, but just as annoying.

I turn off the radio when the ad comes on. It is often more than an hour before I turn it back on. OTHER less annoying commercials lose. The charity is a scam and the ad is most annoying.

It is know in the radio world that announcers will turn their headsets down during these commercials. The commercials are despised within the industry. The other issue to know is that the monies raised by this organization goes to help Jewish organizations. Not that this is bad, but the donor should be aware of how the monies are used.

It is the official theme song in hell.

Why don’t they use Jewish kids in their ads?

It's for indoctrinating Orthodox Jewish kids and the fact that they don't mention that is pretty slimy because people may be donating thinking it's for ALL kids when it isn't.

I thought this was just a metro NY regional scam. They’re scamming people across the country? Wow.

They have been advertising in the Philadelphia area for years, and the ads are still on.

They were the inspiration for "School of Rock."
