Was kinda jarred to see my satelite radio playing this song on Jazz Standards......yes I listen to jazz standards :P

I thought it was created for promotion of the hotel penn, but after a wikipedia'in I realise it wasn't, but was later used by the hotel in their advertising.

I bet everyone in New York knows that jingle.

Just like everyone in Chicago knows Empire Carpet, or that crappy Victory Auto Wreckers commercial where a guy's car door falls off and he gets like $60 for his junked out car.

I used to watch that commercial during cubs games with my grandpa......in the 80's

Here is the commercial: http://www.flatalbert.com/mg/victoryauto.mov

Chicago Sun Times article on the excellent commercial.
