The Scotch tape ad which used the Rolling Stones song Not Fade Away and the skeleton singing it. In fact I had to check the proper song as I only know it as "Re-record not fade away"!
The Kia-ora "I'll be your dog" one and the characters barking!
If you like a lotta chocolate on your biscuit, join the Club!
Trio! Tri-i-i-o! I wanna a Trio and I want one now!
Well they're kinda big and they're kinda round, with lots of with fluffy mallow and biscuit to be found, under that chocolatey stuff. Well they're kinda squishy, really squashy, you'll be sorry if you don't get enough! You have to eat one piece at a time, but they're so big nobody'll mind... If there's a bigger bite it can't be found!
It's not a jingle, but does anybody remember the Hoover Wash Dog? I was about three when those ads were on and I was distraught when I realised it wasn't a real dog.:o:D
Whitbread, big head, Trophy Bitter,
The pint that thinks it's a quart.
It's got the body, the body that satisfies;
It can't be modest, no matter how it tries
Because it's Whitbread bitter, Trophy Bitter,
The best that you ever bought!

I can't remember what it was for but late 80's/early 90's there was ad with a skeleton in that sang something like, "Playback and fade away" - iwas only about 5 so not sure if they're even the words but it's somethign I still say today
ETA - just Googled it's the Scotch tape ads and it's 're-record, not fade away ' and it was 1985 believe it or not, I wasn't even born!!

Set to the tune of the Rolling Stones, Not Fade Away. There was one where he was asking if anyone wanted to buy any 'dirty videos' which made me laugh.
Just discovered this thread!
checking back and noticed no-ones posted the full Country Life butter ad.
it was sung by a bunch of cartoon butter West Country farmers in a mock-Somerset accent:-
"Oooohhhh.... we are the lads from Country Life
And you'll never put a better bit o' butter on your knife
If you haven't any in - have a word with your wife
And spread it on your toast in the morrrr.... niiinnngg
It's Country Life, it's English too
From the cows to the dairy and the dairy down to you
Cos it's pure and fresh and creamy through and through
Sooo... spread it on your toast in the moorrr... niiinnnggg! "
Coates comes up from Somerset where the cider apples grow...
You wont know where the yellow went when you clean your teef with pepsodent! (I think thats how it goes)!!:D
That was the first one to spring to my mind. It's 'You'll wonder where the yellow went when you brush your teeth with Pepsodent. Now Pepsodent cleans film away, it's tasty too get some today' :-)
My Germany-based American son-in-law saw the Pirate Radio forts offshore from Whitstable earlier today; there were some gems of adverts broadcast in offshore radio's heyday. Actually I did rather like the jingles.
