- The unofficial 2nd state song for Oklahoma debuted during the holiday season in 1956. I was involved in the production of a remake in 1977 making it 30 years for me. It is going into the Guinness World Book of Records for the longest running commercial . . . EVER!!!
It is Al Fiegel. He was my advertising instructor at Central State University in the 80s. A great old guy. Really old school advertising. Zowie! Wow! Whooooie!!
Dam, can't find the original with the extra verse: the christmas wish of b.c. clark is to keep on pleasing youuu. (so give the gift you know won't fail)
@Frisco2005 That is true. He co-wrote it in 1956 (when I was one years old) with a guy named . . . I CAN'T REMEMBER!! The name is escaping me for some reason. I'm wanting to say Al Fiegel. Wait, that's it! I produced, (reproduced really) played piano and the bells, and went to Dallas to do the singers from a transcription I did of the original. It is the version that has been playing since 1977.
According to my research, this piece of advertising genius was the product of Al Fiegel of the Ackerman Advertising Agency.
I hope they never stop using it.
You're kidding! I've only lived here since 1997 & have heard it every year. Remember it when I came to visit my Aunt for Thanksgiving years before that.
