RC Cola "Me and My RC" Campaign - Promo LP Track 1. Overture; Stock Car

[RoyKnable]

Chalk me up as another who wishes he could see "Girl on a Bike" again after almost 40 years, even if she's probably a grandmother now. Or at least hear the audio from that commercial.

well we laughed and talked about such dreams on our porch on summer nights

I drank my RC Cola and see my name in lights!

I am looking for the Me and My RC Cola commercial with the girl motorcycle rider,

Lyrics:

"Some folks gonna wonder, wonder what I'm doing here,

Why I haven't settled down with a family or a career,

...I want to know some other ways, heck I'm only 22"

Any links, thanks!

Bought 4 12 packs today. It's not stocked as much as in the past; they just don't get the shelf space. About 15-20 years ago Coke and Pepsi regional execs got jail time in the Mid-Atlantic area for forcing stores to take away shelf space from Rc. They got jail time as I said and paid millions of dollars to Rc but they never got their shelf space back. Sad because it's still the best cola by far.

do they still make this ?

[shmadnumber1]

@CSIS25 They still make RC but it seems it is not available as it used to be. The larger colas play dirty to keep it buried away from the public.

[CSIS25]

@shmadnumber1 yeah thats the sad part bigger company's seem to control the littler ones, i never had RC now in years

I see they have "In the music school in Boston, they call it a violin, hot dang I'm back in Nashville, where it's a good ol' fiddle again!" on there - can't wait to hear it! Do they have "When I hang ten, I'm earning cash, they pay me by the mile!" (Don't remember the first lines of that one)

[luvmyrecords]

How about, "In the music school in Boston, they call it a violin, hot dang I'm back in Nashville, where it's a good ol' fiddle again!" or "When I hang ten, I'm earning cash, they pay me by the mile!" (Don't remember the first lines of that one)

Question! Does this LP have the version of the Black lady singin about dreaming of being a singer?

"I learned to sing with my Momma

in a church down Georgia way

She said "Girl you got a voice

that'll take you far some day."....

[shmadnumber1]

@ShangoJamal Yes, it does have that song. I don't remember the commercial, though.

[ShangoJamal]

@shmadnumber1 OMG!!!!!!!! I have searched Youtube for years hoping someone would post that commercial or at least the audio. 1:02 is a scene from that it. A girl and her Momma are sittin on an old Country Porch Swing, reminiscing about how they used to sing together. I absolutely LOVED it, but I haven't seen it since I was like 7 or 8 years old. If you could PLEASE post that for us to enjoy, if it's not too much trouble. PLEASE & Thank You!

Wonderful storytelling. Why is it that none of the commercials are here on the web? I loved the girl on the motorcycle.

[ForbinColossus]

@towringer The girl on the motorcycle was up last year. Darned if I can find it again. I hope someone posts up...
