The Michael Jackson Billie Jean (Pepsi Version) Lyrics:
You're a whole new generation
You're dancing through the day
You're grabbing for the magic on the run
You're a whole new generation
You're lovin' what you do
Put a Pepsi in the motion
That choice is up to you
Hey-hey
You're the Pepsi Generation
Guzzle down and
Taste the thrill of the day
And feel the Pepsi way
Taste the thrill of the day
And feel the Pepsi way

Johnson - Peace little girl / Daisy girl - (1964) .60 (USA)
This ad known as "Daisy Girl", ran only once as a paid advertisement, during an NBC broadcast of Monday Night at the Movies on September 7, 1964. In it a little girl counts the petals of a flower, and as we zoom in to her eye a nuclear explosion is superimposed. This is cited as the first example of negative political advertising, a.k.a scare-tactics.
Johnson VO: "These are the stakes: To make a world in which all of God's children can live, or to go into the darkness. We must either love each other, or we must die. "
