The 80's Vosene ad starts at 3.OO on here.
Does the tune featured on it ring a bell with anyone?
Are there any specific Vosene ads from era which you remember?

Sorry, slight mistake there, I meant to put any era.

This sounds like the Mike Sammes Singers
Track 32 on this 'Music For Biscuits' CD has a similar feel to it.

I'm nearly 100% sure I remember seeing adverts for this particular shampoo as a child in the 70's. One particular one, I think it was for Vosene, was one which said it was 'good for mums'. It was actually similar to a scene from the film 'Curly Sue'. It showed a boy in the bath having his hair washed, & I think he might have been sitting with one leg cocked over the side of the bath, which looks a bit unusual. I may very well be the only person living in Britain who actually remembers this advert, even the actors who took part in it may have completely forgotten about it.
Well, who knows?

Actually I've a sneaking fancy the 'good for mums' advert I mentioned on here may have been for Earth Born shampoo. There's an advert for Earth Born on tv-ark from 1976 & the tune used in it sounds a little bit similar to the one for Vosene from 1978.
If anyone feels the need to correct me on this then feel free.
My long-term memory is better than my short-term memory, but it's not that good.

There is a shampoo advert from the 70's I can still remember quite vividly, & I think it could've been for Vosene. In it, a little boy is washing his hair while his dad is pulling funny faces at him, & he puts a shampoo sud on his dad's nose. Then, the boy's sister comes in the room and suggests to him that he should wash his hair 'like this'-with his fingertips.
I wish I had 50p for every time I've washed my hair with my fingertips-and they say TV doesn't influence people.

Here's a link to one from 1978, notice how similar the tune featured in the background is to the one from 1984. Media URL: http://www.tv-ark.org.uk/mivana/mediaplayer.php?id=02dcef97908c70030e0224465d6b52f5&media=vosene_1978&type=mp4
