Jingles

Perhaps the best-known jingle was "You deserve a break today" a song sometimes incorrectly attributed to a young Barry Manilow, (who did sing it in one version of the commercial and thus included it in his "Very Strange Medley" of product theme songs, with others he had written) was in fact, written by jingle singer/songwriter Kenny Karen. The melody was either used in, or originates from, a song called "We're Together", credited on The Brass Ring S/T album as being composed by A. Ham/K. Gavin/N. Kipner/S. Woloshin. In the accompanying TV commercial, there was almost no mention of food. Instead, the ad featured an all-male McDonald's cleaning crew, singing after-hours about their individual tasks, and emphasizing that "at McDonald's it's clean!" just before launching into the almost operatic chorus: "You deserve a break today / So get up and get away / To McDonald's!"

Another well known jingle was the "McDonald's is your kind of place / It's such a happy place / Hap, hap, hap, happy place..." from 1967, sung to the tune of "Down by the Riverside".

Livet har sina goda stunder

This campaign was used in Sweden in 1996 and was recorded by Swedish band Ultima Thule.

Leva livet fritt och glatt, man vill inte sitta still
en plats, som alltid är ljus och varm och bara finnas till
träffa dom man tycker om, och göra vad man vill
Livet har sina goda stunder.

Doo wap ap ap a doo den do den doo wap ap ap a do den doo
Dagar kan passera fort som en våg på öppet hav
på McDonalds varva ner, hos oss finns inga krav
träffa dom man tycker om och bara koppla av
Livet har sina goda stunder.

Every time a good time

This campaign was used in Germany in 1999 and was originally recorded by Billy White and Patricia Darcy Jones. The campaign was also used in the Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Sweden, Taiwan, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Hong Kong. "Every time a good time" song was written by: David Buskin, Janet Fox, Susan Hamilton and published by TUTTAPANNA MUSIC.

When you need a change of pace
wanna put a smile into your day
Got your favorite place
when you want to just break away

Time after time
feel good, feel fine
McDonald's ... Every time a good time.

I'm lovin' it (2003–present)

ba-da-ba-ba-ba... i'm lovin' it.

There are also two full versions sung by Justin Timberlake. The first one was used in one commercial.

Ba da ba ba ba. I'm lovin' it. Is this the place to eat? Since I don't cook, I'll just rock to the beat. I'm lovin' it. At the end of the day, to relieve the stress, we add a little play. I'm lovin' it. Sometimes, we have mishaps. You should overcome and adapt to said facts. I'm lovin' it. You know you're in my world. You know you're in my world. I kick and I love taps from my girl. McDonald's. Ba da ba ba ba. I'm lovin' it. Move your feet, rock to the beat, hungry for the music, gotta eat. I'm lovin' it. I'm lovin' it. No guts, no glory. Seems like I've stumbled in the wrong territory. I'm lovin' it Who'd want to mock me? Run around the edges, a tad bit sloppy. I'm lovin' it. My car's way too clean. If only I could start this fine piece of machine. I'm lovin' it. Ba da ba ba ba. McDonald's, ba da ba ba ba, I'm lovin' it.

The second one was used in one commercial.

Ba da ba ba ba. I'm lovin' it. Is this the place to eat? Since I don't cook, I'll just rock to the beat. I'm lovin' it. At the end of the day, to relieve the stress, we add a little play.

McDonald's. Ba da ba ba ba. I'm lovin' it. Move your feet, rock to the beat, hungry for the music, gotta eat. I'm lovin' it. I'm lovin' it. No guts, no glory. Seems like I've stumbled in the wrong territory. I'm lovin' it Looks can't be deceiving. There's a slight change of plans for the evening. I'm lovin' it. My car's way too clean. If only I could start this fine piece of machine. I'm lovin' it. Ba da ba ba ba. McDonald's, ba da ba ba ba, I'm lovin' it.

McDonald's menu song

The McDonald's $1,000,000 Menu Song was an instant-win promotion created as part of an advertising campaign, which ran from 1988 to early 1989. As the name suggests, the song, which was based on Reunion's 1974 hit single "Life Is a Rock (But the Radio Rolled Me)", incorporates all of the items (at that time) on the McDonald's menu: sandwiches, other lunch/dinner items, breakfast items, dessert items, and drinks, in that order.

Promotion overview

Either flexi-discs or cardboard records containing the song were attached to advertising inserts and distributed within newspapers across the United States. On all but one of the issued recordings, the chorus was not able to recite the song perfectly from start to finish; when the chorus made a mistake, the record was over. On the unique, prize-winning recording, the singers were able to complete the song; this record was a $1,000,000 instant winner.

Approximately 80 million records were distributed, and only one of them was a winner. The promotion was won by Galax, Virginia, resident Charlene Price, who used the money to purchase the convenience store where she worked.

United States

In the United States, the lyrics read as follows:

Big Mac, McDLT, a Quarter-Pounder with some cheese, Filet-O-Fish, a hamburger, a cheeseburger, a Happy Meal. McNuggets, tasty golden french fries, regular or larger size, and salads: chef or garden, or a chicken salad oriental. Big Big Breakfast, Egg McMuffin, hot hot cakes, and sausage. Maybe biscuits, bacon, egg and cheese, a sausage, danish, hash browns too. And for dessert hot apple pies, and sundaes three varieties, a soft-serve cone, three kinds of shakes, and chocolatey chip cookies. And to drink a Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, and orange drink, A Sprite and coffee, decaf too, A lowfat milk, also an orange juice. I love McDonald's, good time great taste, and I get this all at one place...

Canada

In Canada, the lyrics were as follows:

Big Mac, McDLT, a Quarter-Pounder with cheese, Filet-O-Fish, a hamburger, a cheeseburger, McChicken, and McNuggets, tasty golden french fries, regular or larger size, and salads: chef or garden, or a chicken salad oriental, and for breakfast: Egg McMuffin, hot hot cakes, and sausage. Maybe Omelette McMuffins all 3 kinds of danish, hash browns too. And for dessert hot apple pies, and sundaes three varieties, a soft-serve cone, three kinds of shakes, and chocolatey chip cookies. And to drink a Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, and orange drink, A Sprite and coffee and hot chocolate, also apple, orange, and grapefruit juice. I love McDonald's, good time great taste, and I get this all at one place...

Hong Kong

In Hong Kong, the lyrics were as follows:

I'll have a McChicken and Sausage McMuffin, hot chocolate, Big Breakfast, orange juice, hash browns. A strawberry sundae, an icy cold Coke, a Sprite over here, a Fanta to go. A milk, hot cakes, it's time for tea, a chocolate shake, a cup of coffee for me. I love McDonald's, good time great taste, and I get this all at one place...

Québec

Around the same time (1989–90), a French version of the ad campaign was produced for Quebec; however, no promotion was attached.

The order given in this version was sandwiches, other lunch/dinner items, dessert items, drinks, and breakfast. The Québec lyrics were as follows:

Big Mac, McDLT, un quart de livre avec fromage, filet de poisson, un hamburger, un cheeseburger, un McPoulet, des McCroquettes, des frites dorées en deux formats. Salade du chef, ou du jardin, ou de poulet à l'orientale voilà sûrement un vrai régal. Et pour dessert: chausson aux pommes, biscuits aux brisures chocolatées, des laits frappés en trois saveurs, un sundae y a rien de meilleur, suivi d'un Coke diet, d'un Sprite, d'un Coke, d'une délicieuse root-beer, chocolat chaud, un, lait, un thé, ou un café en deux formats. Ommelette, McMuffin au jambon, rôties un frits avec bacon, œuf McMuffin, muffin anglais, crêpes, et saucisses danoise au pommes, servez-moi donc un jus d'orange, de pamplemousse, ou bien de pommes. J'aime McDonald, j'ai le goût c'est l`heure de savoir mon menu par cœur.
