When You Need It Bad We've Got It Good (1970s)

Excerpt of original. Uses a lively jingle, stock footage of northern snow scenes, and quick cuts of everything you can find in Florida. This is the ultimate in packing every aspect of Florida into a single film. It begins with a sequence of old photos of famous visitors to Florida, then proceeds to take the genre to the limit. Produced by A&R Films.

I don't know about that slogan becasue Florida has had tempetures in the 40's and 30's as far as Miami and Orlando. So you may need Rio :-D

@fancyfeet10 That's the one I remember!!! It gives me the same feelings you described. If you ever find it please share it. I will do the same.

I remember the commercial with this song where a kid says, "I can't take off my glasses 'cause they're frozen to my nose!" I've been looking for that one forever. This song, to this day, is what runs through my head in the depths of winter.
