Well, at least back then they were honest about how the burgers really look.

1970: fun and energetic commercial 2023: whopper whopper whopper whopper

Loved the "have it your way" jingle. Deserved a billboard position, both the white and black version. Miss those old commercials and way of life back then. Need some genius to make a time machine.

1974: May I help you sir? 2023:whatcha order bro

Wow, they could never get away with that first ad today...

Whoa, BK used the "Where's the beef?" slogan before Wendys! Wow

Even though I was born in 83, I wish TV ads were like this. Now when I see the ads today they are so bland and boring. :(

"What is this, a MEAT STRIKE??" Comedy sure was different in the 1960s.

Back then the workers sang to the customers. Today they’re like “what the hell you want?”

Is it just me or does the whooper looks a lot bigger back then compared to what it looks now?

3:45 young man with blonde hair orange shirt. This was me I'm old now and a millionaire thanks to this commercial. AMA

This was when Burger King started a nationwide campaign to make its name in the burger field. At one point there were dozens of Burger chains like Burger Chef that was known for Star Wars toys. Burger King is now a Canadian/American company that also owns Tim Hortons, whom people near Canada have heard of and seen in hockey arenas. I prefer BK to MCD. The whopper came before the big mac and became a huge success.

4:16 I used to work as a grocery store cashier and whenever the customer wanted their stuff bagged in a stupid way I would always play this song in my head

Agp army where y’all at!?!?! RIP AGP 💔

It's so cool the theme they sing is back with the new commercials sweeping TV. I prefer these older ones but no wonder they went back to these as reference, so catchy. BK, have it your way!!! Lol

Yes now we know where's the meet in a Burger King ad inspired Where's the Beef in Wendy's commercials.

"Lieutenant, if I want WHOPPER, I will have a damn WHOPPER!" is what I would've said.

the whopper jr has been getting very much smaller if you havent noticed

4:10 whopper whopper whopper whopper, but it is very old and very vintage

Commercials used to kick ass!!

5:09 is stuck in my head It’s such a bop ❤️❤️❤️

1974:you can choose the toppings you want 2023:you can choose the burger you want

I can see why being a jingle writer was a thing back then

I love the classic Burger King commercials! The last three are my favorites! I was born in the late fall of 1978! The beautiful and classic jingles are performed perfectly! A lot of great talent, writing and directing in these commercials! This entertaining, historical and interesting! Thank you for posting and sharing this!

Damn, this really hits me right between the nostalgia and the "ol' days" longings zones. The fadedness and the gaps between the commercials are even nostalgia material, with clicks, pops, and an oddly comforting analog hum of old TV. The jingles, the slogans, and those ludicrous outfits worn by happy, singing, dancing servers...can we feasibly go back to them? The one with the Indian (the old-timey word for Native Americans) was new to me, and I loved his "groovy!" remark; they were obviously playing off the "crying Indian" PSAs. The office gang treated the small burger with remarks that wouldn't have been out of place discussing some dude's tallywhacker, and I had to laugh. I was completely surprised as to why the detective ordered his perp "no Whopper!" until the end. Very creative.

So the first commercial was funny as hell 20 years ago. Today it's considered racist, but still funny.

I like the first whooper song better than the new one

the lietanent and the guy he handcuff with reminded me of barnacle boy and mermaid man on spongebob when he said he can't handle the adult size krabby patty.

5:55 The singer is Florence Warner.

6:40 The dog was like: "Hey guys, where's my whopper?"

I recall the last one clearly enough. The folky tune (reminds me of the Poppy Family or the Original Caste, or Coke's "I'd Like To Teach The World") swelling into a chorus of voices, with its gorgeous visuals, warms the cockles of my heart. Were all ads as uplifting today as this one...

I have worked at two...i have heard years ago the shakes where wonderful and the whopper was bigger and more juicy.

Thanks for the memories. "Hold the Pickle! Hold the Lettuce!" ha ha ha

3:49 I guess we found where the Whopper whopper meme was originally inspired from and I loved it 4:51 That was pretty catchy love the trio

70s we're sooooo wonderful and innocent.

Not gonna lie with you guys but being born in the 70s or 80s are literally the best years, I seriously wish I was born in the 70s mostly, screw the phones, games and other advanced stuff bought in through the 80s and 2000's. My Grandfather was born in the 50's and im alot more interested in whats going on in the 50s and the 40s thats when my Grandma was born in, but yeah, I love the 19th Century! ❤ 🖤🤍 ❤

That jingle introduced in the ad beginning at 3:47 really defined those commercials in the 1970s, but now that it's been revived to a degree, I'm curious: Who was actually SINGING that Burger King jingle back then, and is she still alive?

I wanna live like that in 2023

Thanks alot for posting.I have a BURGER KING right beside my Neighborhood.

The good thing about Burger King is that you can burp 3 hours later and still taste it!

I never knew burger king was so old!

im holding my pickle

Groovy!

Burger King is the besto

Ya I know I'm old lol but I remember seeing some of these commercials. The native American dude was a take on the one shedding a tear at the litter people were throwing out. We never thought twice about the silly stereotypes back then. Different times, different perspectives. I actually liked a lot of the commercials back then. Some were even groovy lol. These days commercials just suck.

It makes me feel homesick of the 70s as a kid back then.

All these companies should definitely re-use the still applicable older commercials. It'd be pretty cool.

Why can't burger king sing to me when I buy something now?

The fries and the burgers are fucking delicious

Employees handling ingredients with their bare hands at 3:20. My how things have changed.

Well, that face at 0:53 is going to haunt my dreams…

The actor in the first "native American" ad was actually an Italian-American by the name of Frank De Kova. He played Chief Wild Eagle in he 1960's western spoof comedy, "F Troop", and why he was picked for the commercial. The commercial here reminds us to some degree of the "crying Indian" commercial of the early 1970's here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q62lZ6SosZuvmKM.html played by "Iron Eyes Cody" a Sicilian-American actor.

They still include the "have it your way" at 3:54 and today's commercial

Did anyone notice they were handcuffed together at 3:32

I like the BK America Loves Burgers commercial from 1976. The one with vocals by Florence Warner.

Before "Where's the Beef", there was "Where's the Meat" 1:15

Love the soul version the best!

1. early 1969 2. another 1969 3. mid 1969 4. 1969 again 5. 1974 6. another 1974 7. 1977

I love how the guy's paper hat keeps hitting the top of the window and he keeps having to adjust it. And every time it makes this crinkly noise. It's hard for me to find stuff that makes me laugh but this scene just kills me for some reason.

When did they stop forcing the employees to wear those silly hats?

5:48 *manager kicks down office door* GOD DAMNIT LADIES GET BACK TO WORK AND FIX MY DOOR

WOW ... I highly enjoyed these! Big push for the Whopper!

At least now they bought that classic logo back lol

And now half of the BK employees are just edgy teenagers that don’t give a shit

Loved those little 'Burger Bundles' mid-80's I remember.

i actually enjoyed that lol.

There was one of which a boy flicks pickles off of his burger. It's a BK ad from 1975-6.

No fair they don’t sing when I go to BK.

3:45 the commercial that started the mocking of the losing team in NFL games.

From 1965 to 1975, here's a compilation of Burger King commercials.🙂

Those are some groovy hats.

I believe all these ads are post-1971, as the Iron Eyes Cody Keep America Beautiful PSA debuted in 1971.

Would it kill you add a slice of cheese? How much heavier would it be? And how much more expensive should it be? A series of questions that continues to confound me to this day!

Very funny commercials! If fast food servers started singing to me, I am going to run away.

4:10 I didn’t know they had the have it your way song back then! All though they didn’t say “at BK, have it your way!” Say the line lady!

Those burgers were probably better to eat then these ones today because they didn't use MSG

@4:10 they should bring those big hats in 2016 lol

If comercials were like this then i wouldn't skip a single one

I used to think Burger King was living in the shadow of McDonald's. But I'm sure they're just friendly competitors

Best commercials ever

they didn't include the one with the jingle: "There's a Burger King close to you. Try a Whopper, order two. Best burger buy for miles around. Shakes and fries, how does that sound? Burger King, Burger King, Burger King.

Little did they know that have it your way was gonna become a internet meme 49 years later

They kept the Have It Your Way jingle after all these years.

Whopper whopper whopper whopper junior double triple whopper

Yes They Were Classic Back Then!

This video was made when i was born

You know, ever since 2009, Burger King hasn't been like they were, they've been trying to sell out more than they are trying to make good food, and I swear to GOD if they don't go back to their original ways, I would want to start an actual Good Burger fast-food chain (that is based off the Good Burger movie) (kind of like how Bubba-Gump did it with Forest Gump), that will cook and serve the food just like how Burger King did in the past (before 2009 where they started to sell out) with actually flame broiling the burgers, serving chicken tenders (real fillets of fried all white meat chicken breasts) instead of chicken nuggets, have a Good Burger Kids Club that gives you special deals and offers that you can get not just from Good Burger, but from other places as well (like Toys R Us or GameStop) and that includes contests and you'll get a special card that'll give you 3 free kids meal every month (the next month it starts over) and you buy more free meals from the Good Burger website, and coming up with clever and great ideas not just for profit, but to give the public what they want in their fast-food meal, good, well-cooked, food with our motto being "To Be Honest... We Just Do It Because We Like To Do It" (all with a 90's Fast Food Restaurant theme, cause the movie was made in the 90s) what do you think, would that be a good idea?

WHOOPER, WHOOPER, WHOOPER,

geez that last one kinda brought a tear to my eye

Oof those press ons gonna end up in the burger girl! 😂

Well this started out perfect

I so remember. have it your way from the 1970s wow!!!!

Old ads: Now:🍔🍔🍔🍔 junior double triple

"The bigger the burger the better the burger the burgers are bigger at BURGER KING!"

BK is so nasty now. I haven't had a good meal there in years. I won't go anymore. It's nothing like it was when I was growing up. It started going down in the early 2000's in my opinion.

Don Draper wrote the first two, the third he perfected after the Coke commercial (lol and going AWOL and meeting the burger grip guy).

Groovy

Now these were the days

Then: 3:45 Now: WhOpPeR wHoPpEr JuNiOr DoUbLe TrIpLe WhOpPeR fLaMe gRiLlEd TaStE wItH pErFeCt ToPpeRs I rUlE tHiS dAy

Wow, never knew Sam Snead did a BK commercial. Eating BK burgers must be why he has 82 PGA tour wins tied currently #1 overall with Tiger Woods. Wonder if Tiger ever ate BK...LOL
