I once played this on solo jazz guitar on the streets of St Pete Florida as as a homeless vet. Guess who showed up? Jeff Goldblume!!! His theme song as Grandmaster in Thor Ragnarok movie. Which I had no clue about at the time
Heck the magic of this film just started for me, sorta by accident with me deciding to watch something fitting for just having moved to a chocolate town and the film "free with ads" on UA-cam. An awesome arrangement of this song and the "Willette Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" saga (my name is Willette) happened with me exploring an abandoned chocolate factory recently.
Hard as it may be to fathom 60 can be young. It all depends, age by no stretch of the imagination is set in stone, one man's 40 can be another man's 100 and one man's 60 can be another man's 50, 40 or even 30. Contrary to popular opinion I think a plant-based diet is the way to go, and the less oil and saturated fat the better. You could live to be 110, 120, 150, if your healthy enough maybe even 200, such people have existed.
@@jamesworley9888 That's is the truth I turned 63 last Jan. but Everyone who see me doesn't believe me when I say my age. They all say I look like I'm in my late 30's or early 40's at the most. I don't even feel like I'm 3 years into my 60's I do feel like I'm in my late 30's early 40's. I can still run a 10 minute mile, I don't get sick and if injured I heal Extremely fast. The Pastor in the church next door always comes to me when he needs someone extremely strong to do things when those there in their 20's & 30's can't. At the rate I'm aging I could wind up living a VERY long time.
My family saw this wonderful film in 1973, Christmas time, Eastfield Mall, Springfield, MA. I love the movie! My maternal (late) grandmother's maiden name was Golden, like the Ticket!
@@sseeddyy please for the love of all that is holy use your fucking brain and actually think to yourself how a 2 year could possibly have good spelling and know what is going on. Please try to do the math again because you must have went wrong somewhere.
The fact this masterpiece was made over 50 years really says something. It’s unbelievable really. I mean there is so much charm to this song alone and the whole movie is incredible. It doesn’t need a sequel. It’s already awesome
It's thanks to Anthony Newley, Leslie Bricusse, and Walter Scharf who were the ones in charge of making the music and lyrics. Unfortunately, all three of men passed, Anthony did first back in 1999, Walter passed away in 2003, and Leslie passed away nearly three months after the Wonka 1971 film was released 50 years back. However, the next anniversary for it, if we ever see and live to that day, will be June 30th, 2071.
I have and still do go to sleep to this every night. It's the most calming song ever. ❤ He was and is the best Willy Wonka. Even though I do like the newest one. Gene Wilder is still Willy Wonka.
My dad told me how magical this film was when he was a kid. And when I watched it when I was young. It was still magical and made me think Tim burtons was not at all as magical and mysterious this movie was
Thank you for your time and effort in putting this together. Your work shows...well done. A beautiful song that touches me deeply. Simply beautiful and a beautiful video.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written from Willie Wonka and the Chocolate factory. Gene Wilder was the best Wonka ever from Sweet Charity with the. From Charles Bosselman

@@Jason-f1z I get that...Not many are, but again, this was a musical done right...Most musicals, as the director mentioned, would be random people on the street that would just come out singing, and knowing the lyrics right then and there, without any prior knowledge to what the song was about. So this film was basically taking the musical part that was popular in the 1940s, 50s, and 1960s, heck, even Popeye and Annie were both converted into musicals in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Originally the director wasn't going to include musicals into this film, but once he heard "Pure Imagination", he went for it and it worked. But I can see why people went with the 2005 film simply because of "exact translations of the book", which to me it's fine, but it just makes that wonka depressing to go with. Which sucks really, but that's how Roahl Dahl wrote the book as 60 years ago.
well I guess it has been 50 years since the original movie came out it was around that much 1971 my dad was a kid during that time wow but I do I like both the original and the remake as well green wilder was amazing 🤩 and Timothée Chalamet definitely got the role of Willy wonka himself in 2023 of last year.
Anyone notice Wonka’s cane doesn’t make the original “whipping” sound while on the stairs and is silent in this version? Ah, that makes sense, thanks for clarifying. My bad… 🙄
I don't understand why roald dahl didn't like this version.the book wasn't dark,just serious.I read both books.He wasn't as strange as Johnny Depp portrayed him.I've loved this version since 71,when I saw it as an 8yr. old in the theatre when it came out.
Well, if it means anything...I never could get into Dahl's book, despite many tries. Yet the film is darkly-magical, superb, made more so by Gene Wilder. So perhaps the film actually surpasses the book.
Same here. The world is truly not the same place without him. Very few people, celebrity or otherwise, have that effect on me. David Bowie, Brittany Murphy, Treat Williams, Robert Urich & Paul Walker come to mind as others who truly took some earthly Light with them.
They’re both pretty good in their own contexts. I think the 2023 version wouldn’t fit well in the old movie and vice versa. The new one is perfect from the perspective of a young Willy Wonka. The original reflects an older and more mellow Wonka.
Well, given that after a few tries I gave up on Dahl's book.....sadly, yet the film is darkly-magical, superb & has Gene Wilder....perhaps the film surpasses the novel.

And Mr. Gene Wilder was perfect in this role.
After 50 years still the best version of this story
I like depps more but this is a classic and a close one to me

Burton is the dude who never grow out of emo phase. Sometimes feels forced and cringey
Pure imagination is the most beautiful song ive ever heard when i was 10 an im 63 and still get emotional
I’m so glad of Roald dahl writing his books
Fun fact: he was married to Agatha Christie
Fun Fact: he actually hated this movie to the death
@@joseph7rtI was wondering when someone was going to get around to saying that.
This song is one of the most beautiful songs ever in a movie
I once played this song on solo jazz guitar for Jeff Goldblume as a street musician living iut if a homeless shelter in st pete florida Magic is real
gosh...i watched this last night...can't believe its been 50 years!! Def one of my fav movies of all time
This is one of my favorite movies ever made and can’t for the life of me know why
same
Gene had a wonderful voice, this is a fun movie to watch. 😊❤
God how I miss Gene! The world is NOT the same without him. I adore this song, the best in this snappy, quirky, awesome, ahead-of-its-time film!
I love the beautiful orchestration and beautiful arrangement of Wonka and the Chocolate factory
I love this movie and song

My Dad when he pass away two months ago I remember all the good memories that he left us people ok my Wonka chitty bang bang and world of WDW ok

Thanks for the childhood memories

Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory*
This is My Willy Wonka, Depp was creepy, and Chalamet was to tame and mild. Wilder is the perfect amount of fun and craziness.
Depp was my favorite but this one is my second favorite I don’t like musicals I’m not a huge fan of the new one I like the other ones better
@@Jason-f1z I get that...Not many are, but again, this was a musical done right...Most musicals, as the director mentioned, would be random people on the street that would just come out singing, and knowing the lyrics right then and there, without any prior knowledge to what the song was about.

I liked all three but Wilder stands as a giant with two shoulders for men like Depp and Timothy to stand on

The audio is from the Album that doesn't have that sound, that's why. I synced it with the video afterward

Pure imagination
1971- Gene Wilder
2005- Johnny Depp
2023- Timothee Chalamet
This wasn't remastered properly. The audio doesn't sync up in the beginning. Look at the version I posted, and that's from the DVD.
Not a noth in the world love and imagination

Which is better the 2023 pure imagination song or the 1971 version?
The original
The original feels more dreamy but the new one feels more complete per say?
They’re both pretty good in their own contexts. I think the 2023 version wouldn’t fit well in the old movie and vice versa. The new one is perfect from the perspective of a young Willy Wonka. The original reflects an older and more mellow Wonka.
