    I'm the first guy in the commercial! I was a model for Elite in New York City. The commercial was shot January 1986 in a cold studio on the upper west side. Mr. Landesman is a genius! Does he still write jingles in addition to his progressive music?

    This music from Nestle's touched me so much I found staff paper and wrote out the singing part for flute. I brought it to John Carroll University in Cleveland. Had 3 female flute players play it while I played the piano part. They loved it. I still do. Thank you!

    The Nestle Sweat Dreams jingle is one of those rare pieces of music that stuck with me over the years along with "Welcome, to Miller Time, it's all yours and it's all mine. Bring your thirsty self right here..." Congratulations to Mr. Landesman for writing such an impressionable 30 second piece of music. Apparently I wasn't the only one haunted by this jingle.
    Now here's a mystery, who wrote the Debeers Diamonds are forever New Age piano jingle from 1988?

    • @HerrinSchadenfreude
      @HerrinSchadenfreude 5 місяців тому

      I was just thinking that behind this commercial all time is the 1978 Miller High Life Christmas campaign commercial that they'd play during the NFL playoffs. I finally live in a little town just like that and I'd been looking for it all my life. Some one of a kind commercials just imprint something on your psyche and this one and that one are my top two.

    Really enjoyed the video, I love these guys getting the exposure they richly deserve. One question though; why was the extra "S" sung in the commercial during the spelling of the name if he is clearly not singing "Nestle's makes the very best"? It's been a mystery to me for 30 years.
