      ​@anderstermansen130 It was released in August of 29, so possibly it began production in late 1928 but most likely early 29 given how successful Steamboat Willie was in November of the previous year. It's not like Disney wanted to rush an non Mickey short into production at once after Steamboat Willie proved to be an hit.

    In 1929, Joseph Barbera saw Walt Disney's new cartoon Skeleton Dance at the cinema and was so impressed by this picture that he decided to become a cartoonist. And in the future, together with William Hanna, he created one of the best cartoon films of all time "Tom and Jerry"

I used to feel the electricity in the air. Most kids don't even have cable or tv anymore, there's no "season" feelings.. I really miss that. It feels like Halloween came and went this year :( My favorite holiday.
      Gonna have to make next twice as spooky and go all out. If Halloween spirit doesn't come to you, create and spread it! Now I'm gonna go watch a Haunted Mansion type movie to get the spooks!

      The great depression never really ended.. one day the global financial system was strong again, but the depression turned from a financial one into an emotional one. How many Millions of People per state of the earth are captured in depressions, feelings of lost hope and the absence of spiritual or physical power, because they learned, that all they will build, will be crushed down again one day.
      The jews in warsaw felt this depression in their hearts, before they started their last uprising against the nazis. Many days are behind me, and many before me, where I hate myself for being german.
      I am proud to be german because of Goethe, Schiller, Lessing and many other cultural pearls. But I hate to be german because of WW2 and the holocaust and the infernal and reasonless hate against the jews.
      Life was never, what it seems. As children we believe, everything is good and fine, but soon we become drawn into the madness and the wickedness of adult mankind. We become, what our forefathers were. Evil people, who steal, lie, betray our wifes and husbands, kill and deny the idea of a last judgement, where we all once will have to pay for everything bad, that we've done.
      Under this points of view, not one single human is "good". Blessed are those, who were never born, who were never even created through pregnancy and aborted - blessed are those, who never came in touch with the physical meaning of life and stayed always, being only spiritual alive. Where spiritual life is much more intensive as physical existence could ever be.
      Life can be a true curse, sometimes.

      The other song, it just looks really confusing when the skeleton starts playing the other skeleton like a xylophone, and the sound doesn't even change.
      I feel like they could have edited it better somehow, to not include those parts, but maybe even add other skeleton cartoons and stuff.

      Ohhhhhhhhh, I never saw this until like, when I posted the comment.
      Still, I found it weird but, it's what Disney had in their minds back then.
