 A minor controversy occurred in the "Sydney Morning Herald" in 1988 over authorship of the song, with claims made on behalf of vaudeville actress Peggy Thorne, pianist of the Musician's Lodge, Les Woods, and New Zealander Bill White.The jingle was first sung in the early 1930s on the Goodie Reeve radio show by three-year-old Jennifer Paykel.As the commercials were broadcast live, Paykel was taken to the studio two or three times per week to sing the jingle.
