McDonalds Commercial “The Beef Goes On”

I have had this commercial sitting in a folder for about a year and when I spotted it this morning I thought it would be a parody of the Glen Fry classic “The Heat is On”. I was disappointed when I discovered it wasn’t, but after thinking about it, a parody of “The Heat is On” would be unnecessary. You could just play the regular song with images of food cooking and I would be at the drive-thru before you could say “do you want fries with that”. Now what was I saying? Oh yeah, here is a great 80s McDonald’s commercial.

    It’s a takeoff on “The Beat Goes On”, a Sonny & Cher hit.
