Dilly Dilly
"Dilly Dilly" is a phrase popularized in late 2017 by a television marketing campaign in North America by the Wieden+Kennedy advertising agency for Anheuser-Busch Inbev's Bud Light beer. The campaign was launched in August 2017 with the ad entitled "Banquet" and set in medieval times. It became a catchphrase and resulted in increased sales, the production of further Bud Light ads broadcast during the American football playoffs and Super Bowl LII, and the popularizing of the phrase the "Pit of Misery" as well as characters such as the Bud Light King and the Bud Knight. Prior use "Dilly dilly" is a recurring phrase in "Lavender's Blue", a nursery rhyme or folk song printed around the year 1675. It begins with the sentence, "Lavender Blue, dilly dilly, lavender green, When I am king, dilly dilly, you shall be queen." The website Dictionary.com defines the word dilly as delightful or delicious. Burl Ives sang it in a Disney movie ''So Dear to My Heart'' released on January 19, 1949 ...

Dillybag
A dillybag or dilly bag is a traditional Australian Aboriginal bag generally woven from plant fibres. Dillybags are mainly designed and used by women to gather and transport food, and are most commonly found in the northern parts of Australia. ''Dilly'' comes from the Jagera word ''dili'', which refers to both the bag and the plants from which it is made. Amongst some Aboriginal peoples dillybags are alternatively known as yakou, yibali, murkutu or but but bags. Some forms of dillybags are worn like a satchel with a cord around the neck; most come in an oval shape with a cord attached for carrying. Dillybags are normally woven out of vines or tough dried grasses. In Arnhem Land, Queensland, the Northern Territory and northern Western Australia, plant species of the ''Pandanus'' genus are often used. They are sometimes lined with feathers or animal fur to stop small pieces of food from falling through holes in the weave. Although mainly used by women to gather food, they are so ...

Edward Smith-Stanley, 14th Earl Of Derby
Edward George Geoffrey Smith-Stanley, 14th Earl of Derby, (29 March 1799 – 23 October 1869, known before 1834 as Edward Stanley, and from 1834 to 1851 as Lord Stanley) was a British statesman, three-time Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and, to date, the longest-serving leader of the Conservative Party. He was a scion of one of Britain's oldest, wealthiest and most powerful families. He is one of only four British prime ministers to have three or more separate periods in office. However, his ministries each lasted less than two years and totalled three years and 280 days. Derby introduced the state education system in Ireland, and reformed Parliament. Historian Frances Walsh has written that it was Derby: Scholars long ignored his role but in the 21st century rank him highly among all British prime ministers. Background and education Stanley was born to Lord Stanley (later the 13th Earl of Derby) and his wife, Charlotte Margaret (), the daughter of the Reverend Geof ...

Dilly (song)
"Dilly" is the fourth single taken from Band of Horses' third album ''Infinite Arms''. The song peaked #93 on the Belgian Singles chart. History Guitarist Tyler Ramsey came up with the song while staying in a cabin in North Carolina. He originally recorded it while playing the ukulele and a "little tiny keyboard". The demo recording was sent to Ben Bridwell who liked it and added his contribution to the song. There was an unusual tuning between the keyboard and ukulele that allowed Ramsey to come up with the song's melody. On November 16, 2010, Band of Horses released a video for "Dilly". Previous videos for songs from ''Infinite Arms'' had been collections of still photographs by the band's longtime collaborator Christoper Wilson, merged to make movies. The "Dilly" video was filmed in the Mojave Desert by director Philip Andelman and was exclusively premiered on the movie website ''IMDb''. The video features the exploits of a trouble-making motorcycle gang and includes surreal se ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

John R
John R. (born John Richbourg, August 20, 1910 - February 15, 1986) was an American radio disc jockey who attained fame in the 1950s and 1960s for playing rhythm and blues music on Nashville radio station WLAC. He was also a notable record producer and artist manager. Richbourg was arguably the most popular and charismatic of the four announcers at WLAC who showcased popular African-American music in nightly programs from the late 1940s to the early 1970s. (The other three were Gene Nobles, Herman Grizzard, and Bill "Hoss" Allen.) Later rock music disc jockeys, such as Alan Freed and Wolfman Jack, mimicked Richbourg's practice of using speech that simulated African-American street language of the mid-twentieth century. Richbourg's highly stylized approach to on-air presentation of both music and advertising earned him popularity, but it also created identity confusion. Because Richbourg and fellow disc jockey Allen used African-American speech patterns, many listeners thought that ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
