Knockin’ on the Electrolux Door
After posting my entry on the Electrolux jingle, I got really curious, and I decided to dig a bit and find out what’s up with the song. Lo and behold! Apparently, there is a song where it’s based on, and it’s from the 60s! I knew it was too catchy to be a jingle. Nyahahahahaha!
For all you jingle-heads out there, I present to you this song called (what else?) I’m Gonna Knock on Your Door.
This is Shadowcat, signing out.
I’m Gonna Knock on Your Door
(Aaron Schroeder/Sid Wayne)
Eddie Hodges - 1961
I’m gonna knock on your door, ring on your bell
Tap on your window too
If you don’t come out tonight when the moon is bright
I’m gonna knock and ring and tap until you do
I’m gonna knock on your door, call out your name
Wake up the town, you’ll see I’m gonna hoot, hoot and howl like a lovesick owl
Until you say you’re gonna come out with me
Hey little girl, this ain’t no time to sleep
Let’s count kisses stead of counting sheep
How, how can I hold you near
With you up there and me down here
I’m gonna knock on your door, ring on your bell
Tap on your window too
If you don’t come out tonight when the moon is bright
I’m gonna knock and ring and tap until you do
(musical break)

Okay, the DJ thing was corny.:P I was going to upload an accompanying mp3, but the copy I downloaded turned out to be a virus. I knew free stuff online are too good to be true.@_@

Haha, too bad it was a virus. I was actually expecting an mp3 or something at the end of this post. Try to upload it next time.

jj1212: I know.:( That made me sad too. It’s just good that the virus didn’t corrupt my computer. I’ll try to find another version of it. I think the song’s pretty rare or something.@_@
Tasha: Haha! I might do the same thing.:P It’s scary if we break something that’s not ours - especially if it’s expensive! LOL
