Yes it was Peter Murphy who was the lead singer in Bauhaus.

Scotch tapes were true to their word with the guarantee. I returned one or two becuase the snapped & I did get free replacements.

Nope you are not deluded Trinity because if I recall it right the music was Night on a Bare Mountain by Mussorgsky that was playing in the ad. One of my fave pieces of classical music

Is that the same one that had the skeleton in the advert.I thought that one was pretty cool at the time.

Remember these ads from the 80's? I think they were to the tune of Buddy Holly's song 'Not Fade Away'.

I'm gonna tell you how it's going to be
With Scotch's lifetime guarantee
Tape what you want both night and day
Rerecord not fade away, rerecord not fade away.....

Or something along those lines, then I think the ad just faded away
