It;s like a playlist from my youth! No wonder we were all so jacked up on sugar, etc! These songs seem so innocent. Still, they are better than today's scream at you to get the point across style of ads.

I should add that I grew up in the 80's, not the 50's, but this type of advertising was still popular then.
