Sunday Favorite

In this edition of Sunday Favorite, I am once again sharing a favorite commercial jingle - "Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now" for Heinz Ketchup.

Funky, upbeat disco best describes "Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now."

After brief research, I found that "Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now" is a 1979 disco song attributed to Gene McFadden and John Whitehead (Jerry Cohen on keyboards).  I suppose, then, I wasn't too far off with my description.
