That is an excellent collection of jingles, I'm even more jealous now!

Do I detect a cut that was used on TV rather than radio early in the compilation?

well it's sad, it's lame, it's geeky, and yet it's so damn amazing that I'm now shockingly jealous and want one for myself. *sobs*

the moyles one is the most impressive I'd say.

I keep listening to,

Nicky's got jingles all over the place
Some people call him a hopeless case
But his collection is awesome and huge
And he's happy to share it with you

All your favourite jingles
Nicky Schiller!


Woo for Nicky!

The one directly after the Moyles cut in Gav's second upload.

I think the original lyrics were "081 811 8181", as heard on Going Live.

Yup I was humming that tune to myself earlier and suddenly realised the lyrics, although of course I remember them from Live and Kicking.

I thought it was a Going Live version because it doesn't sound like there's room to sing it as 0181 - the number changes happenned during the days of Going Live IIRC

the 01 stuff happened in 1993, L&K started in 1993. I can recall them doing a feature about them rerecording the jingle to replace the hastily remixed version they had running for a month or two with both versions of the number being sung

Listening again I agree it is L&K rather than GL, the style is very similar to the L&K signature tune.

Although didn't the 01xxx numbers come into dual operation in about 1993?
