Speaking of "Matt" from X-Entertainment, I am pleased to report that he now has a .MOV file of the "Colgate Pump" commercial with the "British" kids (I've heard some people say they were the "Mini-Pops", but I can't confirm this) dressed up in detective trenchcoats and the American girl dressed up as Uncle Sam singing about the Colgate Pump to the tune of Madness' early ska hit "Baggy Trousers", though, for some reason, the file is currently only on UGO.com and not X-E, though this might mean that he's doing a full article about it! If I could press a button and preserve just one commercial from my childhood, watching Transformers and G.I. Joe and Jem and the Holograms afterschool on WVNY-22 in Burlington, VT, it would be this one. It's just so insane; you gotta watch it! (Scroll down; it's the third commercial on the page.)

Lyrics:
Wake up all you sleepyheads,
Colgate gets you out of bed!
Now there's the Colgate Pump!
We've got the Colgate Pump!

It's a neat new trick, you know.
Pump it on your brush and GO!
They've got the Colgate Pump!
She's got the Colgate Pump!

Even mums and dads agree,
what makes it good is M.F.P.! (Maximum Fluoride Protection)
Just a squirt (?) of minty gel,
protects your teeth...
(American girl) "...as you can tell!"

We've got the Colgate Pump!
We love the Colgate Pump! X2
