What Goes Up, Must Come Down!

hey guys im trying to find an advert that was done for a decorating company (i think) probably about 17 years ago. they used a song called spinning wheel by blood, sweat & tears. and they modified the song a little to the company name, in my head the company was called something like cradle & brown. but i was a kid when i saw it so it is probaby something different lol!

Did it go along the lines of:

"What goes up, must come down,
Super-fresco makes it easy, it's by Graham and Brown"

The idea (I think - feel free to correct me) was that it's wallpaper that doesn't need painting and can be easily taken off the wall... made of vinyl perhaps? It's called, somewhat unsurprisingly, Super-Fresco....

Anyway, have a look by clicking here for a bit more information.

Ha! You beat me to it. Even though I've not heard that ad in over twenty years, I could still remember the name of the wallpaper AND the company!

Must have been an effective ad campaign then, eh?!!

I remember it distinctly - when I was a kid it seemed to me that my dad and I were always in Do-it-all (now Focus DIY) buying wallpaper and paint and it must have stuck in my head too!

I guess it was very effective...
