Barry Manilow is responsible for “Copacabana” and a slew of other hits, but you can also thank him for some of the catchy ad jingles that are stuck in your head. Manilow wrote and composed the iconic jingle for Band-Aid ("I am stuck on Band-Aid, 'cause Band-Aid's stuck on me"). Manilow won a Clio Award in 1976 for his work for Band-Aid. The State Farm jingle ("Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there") was also written by Manilow. Manilow said he was paid $500 in 1971 for writing what became the theme song for the insurance company.
