Makin’ whoop

Just wondering who thought it was a good idea to put something close to a millennial whoop in this Sensodyne commercial. That oughta get the kids’ attention!

Far more congenial than the whoop, for me: this recording of “Makin’ Whoopee” (Gus Kahn-Walter Donaldson), by Art Tatum, Lionel Hampton, and Buddy Rich (August 1, 1955). Stay with it.

Here’s a surprising example of a pre-millennial whoop. Thanks, Kevin.

[If what’s in the commercial is a pre-existing song, it’s one Shazam doesn’t recognize.]
