If you're old enough to remember it, like me, you'll remember the advert. Probably the best ad on TV ever. I found it on a website a while back, so remixed the theme tune and came up with this. mwahaha. Prepare for ultimate nostalgia! Re-Ora Bwahah. Had fun writing this. All comments welcome. You kids might not understand what all the fuss is about, but you old timers will! |

Never heard the original but very well done btw, don't mean to hijack, but could you get in touch by MSN fallout? I know we started to talk about it in your last thread, but we didn't get to finish. Thanks. My less-pimp name was Mattman. |

Course I remember it. Erm, doesn't it exist anymore? Oh, and anyone listen to Capital Radio? They are doing a nostalgia trip every evening. Basically they play one of two old TV show music. Last one I heard was Littlest Hobo, and previously it was Happy Days. Annoyingly Red Hand Gang wasn't played... Cheers BTW, I only found out the other day that Mork and Mindy was actually a spin-off of Happy days. Fair enough, I wasn't a major fan, but WTF????? Heh, watch Happy days these days and it's amazingly un-pc. I am 99% probably lying in bed right now... so don't blame me for crappy typing |

I remember Kia Ora, and I'm not over 20... but it did go out of fashion. Probably replaced with that rubbish Um Bongo... "A book. If u know something why cant u make a kool game or prog. come on now. A book. I hate books. book is stupid. I know that I need codes but I dont know the codes" |

Im 19, nearly 20. I have no idea what's going on, somebody mind posting a lill explanation? Nice music, though I don't know what the original was like so I can't compare. I'll play it at work so the guys can confirm their suspitions about me being the wierdest coder ever to work there. |

Um Bongo... Um Bongo... they drink it in the congo sorry, drifted off there. Nice tune - having never seen the original, how much has changed? "A book. If u know something why cant u make a kool game or prog. come on now. A book. I hate books. book is stupid. I know that I need codes but I dont know the codes" |

Near the end it's only slightly remixed. ^_^ Loved those crazy carton adverts as a kid, but don't think it ever actually weanted me to buy it. Kia Ora was the one with the black crow wan't it? ![]() |

I've just seen Kia Ora in my local vending machine. I hate that stuff. Taste like...... well.... bad. The advert was great though. (Not over 20, but I know the advert) |
