“Floating Heads”

Over the last few years I’ve been using on Oral B tooth brush with a “floating head”. The bristles are mounted on a kind of a “shock absorber” that somewhat absorbs the pressure when I tend to use too much force when brushing.

This “floating head” concept brought back a flashback from an old memory. Baby Boomer Alert!!! Does anyone remember the old Norelco Electric Shaver with “Floating Heads” circa early 1960’s advertisement? It always played at Christmas time and showed Santa Clause riding on the “floating heads” like a sled on a snowy hillside.

I could not find any videos of the original ad, but did find one from the 1970’s. Unfortunately, it is not the same version as the original. The original was in black and white and had a song that went, “Floating heads, floating heads…”, that’s all I can recall. After an exhaustive Internet search, I have not been able to find the video or the lyrics to the original song.
