Do We Remember - Mandom By Charles Bronson

Charles Bronson ....during his heydey ....magnificent 7, the great escape.....loved to watch his movies. Recall the Mandom adverts here too ...but not this particular one.

Death Wish & partiularly one of the best of his "The Mechanic". Remember there were many of those advertisments during that period that leaves an indelible mark in our memories, I name a few, just a few:

1. The Benson & Hedges Cigarette Advertisment ( the theme music & the Cowboys & their horses) - I don't smoke.
2. Cathay Pacific ( Barry White Love Theme) with the plane taking off.
3. Coca Cola Advertisement, the Human Christmas Tree ( I like to Buy the world a Coke).
4. Charles Bronson - Mandom
5. Lam - Guiness Stout ( those words or Wisdom)
6. Quantas - ( where the elderly lady sitting in an Alfreso Cafe, the song " where did you get that hat, where did you get that style")
7. Kodak Advertisement ( Paul Anka's "good morning yesterday, you wake up & time had drift away").

...more??

Plus that Levi Advertisment, where the couple did the dance to "rock & roll" music, I fell in love with the dancing!
 
ya i recall that too.....it was a later one after the boots/pool advert.

Another good one with good music was the Barcardi Rum advert....setting was a tropical holiday type.

Song goes like this .....' sitting near the shining sea

waiting for the boat to come

Listening to a band that no one ever heard of

sipping on barcardi rum

la la la barcardi rum

freedom is barcardi rum '

Not many men with pockmarked and rugged face achieved his fame, Richard Boone (remember Paladin?) was not that well-known. In Singapore Lambo Vomit Singh did ok.

Yes I remember that Bicardi Rum advertisement too...what was that Catonese advertisment on, was it Citizen Watch? " qin san piew, yum nei jump, yum nei jong"...?? ( roughly translated , can soak in water, can bang against...). The Beikilin advertisement...'Beikilin for vitality" jingle & the Channel 8, when it was half Indian & the other half Chinese programs..." tonic Chap Gajah" jingle...

Citizen watch in Cantonese.
Location is HK Ocean Park.
With a catchy slogan 精神表
 
I did not like the smell of Mandom so I really cannot say how good it was. However, I do remember Charles Bronson and many ads he was in.

lol you beat me to it for citizen watch....

The Beikilin ad had to be the longest running one.... The old chap doing kungfu was actor 李鹏飞.....always in baddie roles
 
....move in to the world of the long cool Dane .....think those were the words.

Vomit Singh does not look rugged....he is just pockmarked and fugly....does not qualify for the rusty look even
