A TV advert with catchy song

Hey, I'm trying to find this really catchy song from an old tv advert. All I can remember about it is the song had lyrics something like 'always on the go', and the whole thing had this happy, colorful vibe. It was for some candy or cereal, I guess. Man, it's been years. Anyone got any idea what I'm talking about?

Dude, I have this weird obsession with commercial jingles and I think you might be talking about the Fruit Loops ad from like, the early 2000s. I'm not 100% confident, but the lyrics kinda match and it was super colourful and upbeat.

Advertising industry vet here.

It sounds like you're referring to an ad from the early 2000s. Your description of colorful vibrancy and the potential product being a cereal could point towards a number of popular ads from that time period, including campaigns for Cap'n Crunch, Fruit Loops, Trix, etc. There was a lot of use of bright, fresh visuals paired with catchy tunes to really target the younger demographic.

Based on the lyric you provided, it might be the Fruit Loops 'Follow Your Nose' ad campaign. The jingle lyrics do feature a similar line, plus the visuals for the ad were colorful and had a cheerful, active vibe.

Of course, without more information I can't provide a definitive answer. Hope this helps a bit in your search.

Hmm, this kinda sounds like an ad I saw a long time ago, but can't exactly put my finger on it. It could be something like skittles or gushers ad because they usually have happy, colorful themes. And their jingles are usually super catchy too!

I kinda remember something like that? I think it was an ad for some kind of fruity candy. Try looking at candy commercials from the 90s and see if anything rings a bell.

Bro, I feel your pain. There's this one commercial with a dog... or was it a cat... ugh, never mind. Hope someone can help you out!

Interesting. Your description, albeit vague, does remind me of a few ads. The lyrics kinda sound like the Fruit Loops commercial, but the 'colorful vibe' could also point to a Skittles or Starburst ad. Do you remember anything else about the tune or visuals?
