I think I am right in saying that this was recorded in 1941 and, to me, seems fully in line with the typical British attitude of laughing in the face of adversity. He was a quite well known comedian of that era.
Thank you, and thank you, and again thank you. What isn't quite so well known is that my grandfather, notwithstanding our Bavarian surname, was Jewish. This adds a delightful piquancy to his anti-Nazi humour.
I´m a german and I like it. I don´t know the british people but for most of the germans their humor seems a little bit strange. I don´t know but how it is in England but in Germany you can´t hear this song without an headset or everybody will call you a Nazi. I´m not a Nazi, Sorry if my english is bad :D
Graham Rankin 1 second ago Thank you for your comments Jan and yes I am sure you are right that our humour is indeed a little bit (or perhaps sometimes very !) strange. I think it is always important to laugh as the alternative is not helpful ! I am glad you like it. Your English is very good.
Graham Rankin Thank you. You´re right. It IS important to laugh. A life without laughing is a bad life. I like the british humour but in germany you the most people don´t understand it. In germany you can´t tell jokes with black humour cause anybody will think you are a racsist or a Nazi. Maybe I am to young (16) to understand why everybody is so prickly (hope it is the right word) because I were not born when all the bad things happened. Well maybe in 20 Years there are more people who understand this humour :D
***** Hello again Jan. Thank you for your further comments and I am sorry about the over-zealous Politically Correct brigade in your country but I have to say that we have the same problem here increasingly which is very sad and a reflection of how little people actually think for themselves about the real world and proper values. Your use of the word "prickly" is excellent and shows that good education is alive and well in Germany. Best wishes. Graham.
I am related to this guy and the frankaus, they're very very distant relatives of mine I know quite a lot about them. This man had my humour with jew jokes hehe
