Persistent earworm alert CLVI

I always wondered why Canada Dry advertisers chose a razzle-dazzle, steppin'-out-on-the-town approach to their jingle decades ago.  Full of life, the jingle singer proclaimed, "I'm makin' my move..."

..."Where?" I wondered.  "Is she starring in her first role on Broadway?"

"...to Canada Dry!" she sang triumphantly.

"Oh," I thought, puzzled yet amused.  "She's making the transition from soda to ginger ale."

I'm still not sure that supposed life-changing milestone was worthy of a full-fledged production number, but I can't deny that the jingle latches onto one's brain.
