- A new Cookie Monster video might be on the horizon! But for now, here's something a little different. I know, I know... by 2020 standards the lyrics are not exactly culturally sensitive. And neither are many of the early Popeye cartoons. But if you're like me and you love old music and classic animation, maybe you'll get some enjoyment out of this!
For me it's like a glimpse into the UA-cam content from an alternative timeline, where maybe Nikola Tesla invented the Internet in the 1930's.
Following this account for 7 years has finally paid off, and it was 100% worth it. ♥️
Thanks to all who have been subbed all these years, and thanks for watching! Glad that a few people have enjoyed it :)
Lol 🤣🤣👏👏👏
I was raised mostly by Popeye and 3 stooges on tv until I was about 12.
A lost gem of a channel resurfaces.
It's been a long while since I subbed and I'm glad I never prune any inactive channels specifically for moments like this.
Great to see you back in the game, and the prospect of more on the way is even better.
I don't even understand why anyone would prune inactive channels, I have many of these smaller channels in my subs, they're not in the way.
whoever you are, you're a genius
LOVE old music, and ADORE all things OLD Popeye!!
Now, Arab sheiks on the burning sands
Come into their harems and clap their hands
Said, "Come on, girls, are you ready to play?
Let's have a little more of that swingin' today"
Now, In the land of Fu Manchu. Girls all now do the Suzie-Q.
Clap their hands in the center of town singing
"Ching-ching chop-suey swing some more!"
Now, geisha girls in old Japan
Wink behind their peacock fans
Since they learned to say, "Yeah!
Let's swing it like Amelican's swing swing dance!"
Now, Gypsy caravans have changed their mode
They truck down the Romany road
With their hi-de-hos, and their hey-hey-diddle
Doin' the swing on the Gypsy fiddle
Them eastern wisemen know the story
Of the swing with Oriental glory
They stroke their beards and grin
Sayin', "Swing, little children, till the dawn comes in!"
Now, Gypsy caravans have changed their mode
They truck down the Romany road
With their hi-de-hos, and their hey-hey-diddle
Doin' the swing on the Gypsy fiddle.
Only problem is Geisha Girls can't say Amelican, as Japanese have trouble with the letter L and substitute it with R. Lamian became Ramen for this reason. Also in WWII Pacific theater, the password used for identification of Friendlies was Lollapalooza, because the Japanese Soldiers could only say it as Raraparooza. Another example is Japanese Lemonade is called Ramune.
Your talent is amazing! I just set my alerts so that in case you resurface in 7 years with another gem. It would be worth the wait!
Could happen 😁👏😊
Excellent! Thank you for another awesome video!
This is just so cool I can barely stand it! How long did it take you to put this together? Can I give you more than one up-vote?
Thanks for your hard work! I can't be easy to make these videos.
This is gorgeous
Olive Oyl's skirt looks like a bathroom rug.
Holy shit it lives
These cartoons are much better, than what they have on t.v at the moment, bring these back !!
Haha love old cartoons
Lil had a firecracker of a band. Sounds like Coleman Hawkins on tenor.
Rust says the tenor sax player is Tony Zimmers. Not a well known name, but a great solo. He was a member of the Larry Clinton orchestra and also played clarinet.
THAT was cool!!!!
💖💖💖
I'm on this train, hopefully we get a new video soon
Deserves WAY more views. Excellent!
Thanks for this masterpiece.
These are fantastic. please make more.
What be the cause of this sudden resurgence in activity? Perhaps Caronavirus related self-isolation. Something to do. Or just random.
🎼🎵🎶 Lit Hardin Armstrong, 💯 acompanha bem os movimentos do Popeye 🤣🔥🫶
Love love love it!!!!
That's excellent editing.
Olive Oyl's Stick Figure Body can be seen at 0:44 . WTH Did Popeye the Sailor see in Olive Oyl He Didn't See in Betty Boop???
