I missed the beginning of this discussion, so these may be duplicates...

Good & Plenty commercials (you remember, the ones with Charlie) were a
takeoff on "Casey Jones" (that's probably not the full title).

Newer Alka-Seltzer commercials play a pastoral piece that I first heard
on an old Blood, Sweat and Tears album; I don't recall the title at
all.

In their most obnoxious commercial yet, TWA wrecks the lyrics to a song
from "Cabaret".
