i went insane when i found out that someone saved my life tonight was written about long john baldry, i almost cried. that is so insane, what an awesome guy. i only knew him as like "Oh he voiced Robotnik in AOSTH, and also had a music career at one point cool." (thats still high praise his roll in AOSTH is unironically probably my favorite vocal preformance of all time.) BUT NO! ELTON JOHN NAMED HIMSELF AFTER HIM! AND HE WAS ON THE BEATLES' ICONIC BBC SPECIAL. WHAT THE HECK! HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS! complete chad, super awesome guy, and incredibly underated. thank you so much 9 year old video for giving me a new appreciation for one of my favorite vocal preformances ever.
Ben, this was a really creative and amazing video! Its almost like watching Vcause in a way. I loved how you just at the last second secretely put " PINGAS" there. I was really hoping /expecting it, as it is one of his famous lines in his voice acting career. The thought of the man behind "Pingas" being a very important person in the history of music in Europe is mindblowing really! I saw Elton John in my hometown in Skien, it was an honour, but the connection with Long John doubles the honour. I have actually seen a person whom has known the famous Long John! Thank you
I Really Hope You Make another NoteBook Doodle Video Just Like This One, Also I'm a Big Long John Baldry Fan, I Loved his 1976 Album Welcome to Club Casablanca. I Love It.
You know, I think the Robotnik UA-cam Poop videos are about the funniest damn things I've ever seen, but as a casual fan of blues and rock AND a gay man, it's really fucking cool to know how important Long John Baldry was. I heard Elton John recall that night during an interview on Fresh Air, and my interest was piqued because while I'm aware of songs like "Baldry's Out," and I still find myself humming "Everything Stops for Tea," i really had no idea how important he was. I know the point of his career wasn't as a pioneer in gay representation, but it's still really cool to know.

That's really sweet of you to say, thank you! You're the first one to notice the "Pingas", by the way. I was hoping someone would!
Secret pingas? where?
I Really Hope You Make another NoteBook Doodle Video Just Like This One,
Also I'm a Big Long John Baldry Fan,
I Loved his 1976 Album Welcome to Club Casablanca.
I Love It.
Great video man, thanks from argentina! Love what you are doing, I hope I can see more!
Big fan of Baldry from way back. Wonderful and enlightening piece of work on a great artist and musical influence. Thanks!

This was great. Want to see more!
Rick Danko and Baldry good choices ! btw - skiffle kick started a lot of things in the UK. How about Roy Buchanan or Lonnie Donegan next)
