    I have yet to see either the advertisement that was out in the mid-80s or the drink itself.

    It seems to be still around as they have a website

    http://www.umbongo.com/

    The ads been out more recently than the 80's. I used to have the whole thing learnt off and I was only born six months before the 80's ended.

    Here's the one I remember. Don't remember the subtitles or Libby's though.

    Ah! I remember this! I never knew all of the words, so I just used to say the first few and then use random noises/words for the rest. Used to piss everyone else off :rolleyes:
