    THIS...sexy-slinky-sleazy jazz sound, and Big Band Swing, Outlaw Country, Motown-era R&B, Funk in the style of Parliament/Funkadelic, early 90s-style Grunge, Punk in the style of Iggy Pop & the Stooges/Television/Ramones/X-ray Spex, dark 80s-style music in the vein of The Cure/Romeo Void/The Smiths, blues in the style of Stevie Ray Vaughan/Buddy Guy/BB King, transgressive folk a la Bob Dylan, and the Madchester sound...these are the types of music that should be dominating the airwaves in the 2020s decade. Who's with me?

    Now I shall tell you the lyrics
    Folks, here's a story 'bout Minnie the Moocher
    She was a red-hot hoochie-coocher
    She was the roughest, toughest frail
    But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale
    Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi (hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi)
    Whoa-a-a-a-ah (whoa-a-a-a-ah)
    Hee-dee-hee-dee-hee-dee-hee (hee-dee-hee-dee-hee-dee-hee)
    He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y (he-e-e-e-e-e-e-y)
    She messed around with a bloke named Smokey
    She loved him though was cokey
    He took her down to Chinatown
    And he showed her how to kick the gong around
    Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi (hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi)
    Whoa-a-a-a-ah (whoa-a-a-a-ah)
    He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y (he-e-e-e-e-e-e-y)
    Oh-oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh-oh)
    She had a dream about the King of Sweden
    He gave her things that she was needin'
    He gave her a home built of gold and steel
    A diamond car with a p-la-ti-num wheel
    Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi (hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi)
    Ho-dee-ho-dee-ho-dee ho (ho-dee-ho-dee-ho-dee ho)
    Skip-de-diddly-skip-de-diddly-diddly-oh (skip-de-diddly-skip-de-diddly-diddly-oh)
    Bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-oh (bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-oh)
    He gave her his townhouse and his racing horses
    Each meal she ate was a dozen courses
    She had a million dollars worth of nickels and dimes
    She sat around and counted them all a million times
    Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi (hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi)
    Whoa-a-a-a-ah (whoa-a-a-a-ah)
    He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y (he-e-e-e-e-e-e-y)
    Whoa-a-a-a-ah (whoa-a-a-a-ah)
    Poor Min, poor Min, poor Min
    There that was a lot of typing

    • @annanutherthing
      @annanutherthing 5 років тому +4

      The “When I get Low “ was such a great sounding trio and perfect video it’s hard to beat. This new group with only one original singer ( it’s her band) is also pretty good.
      Excellent production on sound and visuals. It was smart to try to recapture a taste of the original “ when I get low “ and it looks like it might work better than other variations I’ve seen Nastaja try .
      It’s hard though, as the original trio had that extra ‘something’ which I do think was the utterly watchable original blonde who was compelling to watch and had that quality in her voice ... she just was ‘magic’.
      I want to love this song and trio version too but maybe a bit spoilt by the other. Which is a bit unfair as Nastaja is the backbone that makes this all work so well .. she just had a magic formula with the original blonde. So it was a pity it couldn’t prevail!!
      Maybe keep giving us some more songs of this calibre and I’m sure we’ll adapt !!

      My sentiments are the same; the first video was near perfect . . . .tough act to follow, I guess. This is good, but I thought the chemistry/voices of the other line-up was something beyond exceptional. And, again, the video was about as good as it gets.

    When I was in 8th grade, I sang this for my friends and got them to repeat after me on the "hi-di-hi, hi-di-ho," part, mainly because I wanted to draw attention to myself. Only now when I understand what the lyrics mean do I regret ever singing it.
    It's because Minnie's on drugs that she's having that dream about the King of Sweden giving her all that stuff.

    Very nicely done. I liked it even though I think Cab's version is the best.

      Cab Calloway's version is untouchable. It's impossible to improve upon. Any cover of Minnie the Moocher is therefore an homage only. I'd like for someone to cover a different Cab Calloway song, though. From basically 1929 until 1938, he kicked out great tune after great tune, and aside from Minnie the Moocher and St James Infirmary, they're all forgotten.

      Fair point... one Calloway fav of ours is SAN FRANCISCO FAN which was brilliantly covered by JOE JACKSON - check it out if that one escaped you. I think his version is a revelation.

      The point of covers is not to make better. Point is to make another, own version.
