Chattanooga Choo Choo - Glenn Miller Orchestra

[TRlP9s]

Can't seem to find link to Chattanooga Choo Choo done by female Russian singer. Have link? Any idea why it may have been pulled?

[Fiddlesticks116]

I'm fifteen years old and this is one of my favourite songs ever. I wish modern music was like this...

[disney946]

I love this song

[bemsay]

Black Books brought me here

[joubertblos1]

Why isn't this in Fallout: New Vegas????? Awesome stuff

[aaronaaronjarvis]

Pardon me boy, is this the Transylvania station?

[yays0pEN]

I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!!

[m2tt7]

i think this is tne best version :)

[DrLynch2009]

this remeinds me Fallout 3... : )

[Wookiestick]

I want to see the rock band KISS do a cover of this song in full makeup onstage.

[cupons69]

@Wookiestick  You are stupit

[Wookiestick]

@cupons69 Uh-huh. I advise you to use a spell-check.  Or carry a dictionary around-- otherwise your words might backfire as it just did.

[cupons69]

@Wookiestick  Would you like to die

[MegaTorontoRaptors]

@Wookiestick good idea... but you're pretty stupid

[Deadten0r]

@MegaTorontoRaptors

I'm sorry, but the actual multiple choice answer was 'D', "you're all stupid."

[m2tt7]

that is real Glenn Miller ? or this is the actor from the film about Glenn Miller ?

ABSOLUTLY AWESOME SONG

[BrucePartingtonPlans]

@m2tt7 That is really Glenn Miller, yes, and not James Stewart from The Glenn Miller Story which was made 13 years later. Glenn appeared in two films - this one and 1942's Orchestra Wives. It's great to see real footage of the man, and performing such a great tune too.

[m2tt7]

@BrucePartingtonPlans thank you for information :) .. because its absolutly amazing see Glenn Miller on the video , he is my icon .. i am 15 years old boy , i play tenor saxophone , and i absolutly love his music ..

[NvrShoutNvr93]

I'm singing this in chorus at school..

lol (:

[mariuszny]

Someone made comparision of white and then black version of the same song. Segregation in full swing.

[logitrol1]

It was the #1 song in America the week I was born.

[bandman0741]

@logitrol1

That is what I am looking for. I was born 07/10/41. When were you born?

[jazmin180399]

watching this so i can play it on my tuba :)

[MsIndiansrule]

Seriously screw today's music ! Every song sounds the same ! Now this is real music !

[user98xp]

This damn song has been stuck in my head all day <:D

[gtsstang]

Glenn Miller - the power of great music!

[StefanR10]

Ape Simpson

[Gigabob6]

2:03 first wangster??



[srunig]

I'm not from Chattanooga, but I lived in Chattanooga for the first couple of years (when i came to study in the US).. oh My its like my home away from home... Love it :)

[wiselatina33]

I grew up in the 80's, but this music makes me wish I grew up in the 40's!

[cupons69]

@wiselatina33  You wish punk

[milvipes]

@wiselatina33 You wouldn't like fighting WWII.

[juliolazzagonzalez]

15/12/1944 Sobre el Canal de la Mancha se pierde el avión que transportaba a Glenn Miller, director de jazz, arreglista y trombonista estadounidense

[histre101]

The gorgeous dish at the end is Dorothy Danridge. You might remember her name as Halle Berry mentioned her in her thank you speech for an oscar.

[takemeback70s]

The whole band has the moves on  !!!!

[Heikkibat]

Every time that I catch a long-distance train I put this on my MP4 player. And... nothing could be finer!

[Heikkibat]

Espectacular!!! I didn't believe that there were still Miller filmings!

[histre101]

@Heikkibat best I recall he did two films, this is one of them....absolute treasure....this was MTV VH1 before anyone invented them!

[daeelly]

I love big bands! And the thing is that you have to have great dance skills to dance to this, unlike today when everyone thinks is a dancer. And I adore the Nicholas Brothers choreography to this.

[bridget117]

I've never heard this song before. This is cool!

[terrok1952]

melodia , którą zna cały świat . piękne czasy .

[BRUC2016]

This song is on a level of greatness that defies description. The quintessential American classic.

[AdGarUK]

45 people missed the Chattanooga Choo Choo.

[smoothmamamidnight]

All smiles 10*!

[MsAlemartinez]

De mis favoritas....esto es musica...yes!!!

[fred69919]

beutiful mjusic great miller see my chanal please

[123LexLuthor]

at 2:45 is that milton berle

[macros117]

@123LexLuthor definitely. 8 to the bar.

[histre101]

@123LexLuthor yes it is....I believe that might be rita hayworth that is supposed to be his honey who is obviously torqued off later in the scene.

Glenn disappeared crossing the english channel going to france for a concert

[therealjoebloggs]

@123LexLuthor Yes. And it's true.

[PumpyClumpy]

Back when the world was black and white.

[roscoe496]

real music, everybody in sync, classic, glenn miller disappeared in europe around 1943.

[katieburak93]

I'm 17 and I listen to a wide variety of music; from Glenn Miller to Staind

[zblanchard15]

Doing this song in my high school band. SOOOOOO FUN!

[0311RFLMN]

talent baby. today rubbish is making money.fucking rapp gommos,britteny no panties,etc.

[intrepidlikes]

What does "dabble on a collin" mean?Don't understand that lyric, but GREAT GREAT tune!

[impaler187]

@intrepidlikes If your referring to 3:14 it's "Shovel all the coal in"

[histre101]

@impaler187 not then. You are thinking of the 19th century trains. (wink).

[xstingrayx]

Holy crap this song is so awesome it made my pikachu evolve !!!!

[aperfectfailyour]

Reminds me of fallout 3 / new vegas

[R117552]

Slick tune.

[clfetter]

MY GOD!

[Javelsgard]

40 people dont know good music

[deandro985]

Glenn miller is my idol, and not just cuz he played trombone too :P

[jwm05281971]

Badass. R.I.P. Mr Miller.

[iconaclastor]

No wonder this was the first song to get a gold record for over a million copies sold! Glenn Miller was one of the all time best, no doubt! His music is still timeless and had a creative arrangement hardly heard anymore.

[Kakarot21591]

Tex Beneke!

[kikivolauvent1]

this is one of my favorites..... but I HAD to come back once again because I needed to know why FORTY peeps would not like this.... Can't see any reason!!!!

[rockincarbonara]

@kikivolauvent1 Well.. i guess there are also young HipHop Kids around who may have different idols as we have.. But at last don´t ever mind about it: one-and-a-half-million hits can´t be wrong at all! ;-) Forget about that 40 Kids!

[charcheryllouise]

All the views are me hitting repeat

[clfetter]

genius.

[LilElf18]

AnyOne have any recomendations for good wartime songs? Im only 10 but i love this sort of Music and im Learning WW2 at school :)

[Crimeyfied]

@LilElf18 Lots of Glen Miller cuts (obviously).... and lots of Andrews Sisters. Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy would be where to start ;-)

[TheMrWoodLin]

@LilElf18 Don't just stay in the Jazz Era of WWII. If you really love this type of music, check out Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman, Woody Herman, and people like them. Or you could listen to new Jazz artists like The Big Phat Band and Bebop artist like John Coltrane and Miles Davis. Message me if you want more names :)

[LilElf18]

@TheMrWoodLin Ok thank you :)

[LeechHat]

What happened to real music? Nobody makes amazing stuff like this anymore... Instead we're stuck with Lady Gaga and that horrible Bieber child. I worry about future generations.

[anarchy4sale]

One of my father's favorite, grew up listening to this. Brings back wonderful memories.

[judysolo1]

That guy at 2:45 is Milton Berle.

[therealjoebloggs]

@judysolo1 Uncle Miltie-- it's true.

[FreshPilot]

I think the music is great! All music is good in its own way but the 40's music is some of my favorite and I agree this should be exposed to children and adults!

[kasf1982able]

just magnificent music.

[CPLWeeks]

Y U NO PLAY WHOLE SONG

[nevershoutpenisx3]

Amen to what Ezdduf4kuZ said. haha.[: But I do love Eminem<3. Mostly cause he was a big part of my childhood growing up. Yet, I prefer the oldies over majority of the singers today because their voice is real compared to most of artists who use autotune or studios to fix their voice. It took real talent to be famous back then.

[latrodectus23]

This what i called music kids!!! LOL and im only 23 years old.

[VIGILANTI1]

@latrodectus23 IF THIS SOUNDS GOOD AT 23, GUESS WHAT IT FEELS LIKE AT 64 LIKE I AM. ''JUST THIS SIDE OF HEAVEN''

[Ezdduf4kuZ]

@latrodectus23 How true when you think bout it but then the vast majority of younger people would think this is really old school (which it is) and they would go on to glamorize Lady Ga Ga and moon Marshall Mathers (Eminem).  Vancouver Canada has Skytrain zooming us home but then Skytrain isn't music to the ears(ur)......God, bring back all the good music, all of it & that includes that good ol' rock and roll and Disco. Hey.there's still music out there...call it Rap/HipHop...thx4 postin!!!

[histre101]

By the way, that is Dorothy Dandringe with the Nicholas Brothers toward the end.....

[dtzannabianca258]

Troppo bello! Glenn Miller sempre resterá insuperabile! Grande, grande, grande. Grazie, vtzao.

[Vtzao]

@dtzannabianca258 Não há de quê. Obrigado pelo seu comentário! ;-)

[MrSteve24fps]

This was American music at it's best. Highly skilled musicians playing sounds that were pleasing to hear.

[123ffr]

I absolutely love Glenn Miller ^_^



[tocamoose]

Thumbs up if you think that the guy at 2:45 has got the moves!

[Godfree5]

@tocamoose That guy was Milton Berle, if I'm not mistaken. :)

[hammeron39]

@Godfree5 you are correct , love this jump music, makes a old man want to do a fred astaire

[histre101]

@Godfree5 yes it was.. Milton Berle later became "Mr. Television".....

[kisa577]

@tocamoose That's Milton Berle. He really got famous in early TV.

[histre101]

@tocamoose that's Milton Berle....know later as Mr. Televison.

[bilmar1966]

"@tocamoose "That guy at 2:45" is none other than Uncle Milty, Milton Berle," host on the Show of Shows for years. Great showman.

[jaffabend]

@tocamoose Ha ha! He certainly does not at 3:45 tho.

[AZFlash100]

@tocamoose That guy just happens to be Milton Berle.

[GirlWomanDead]

@tocamoose I think that's Milton Berle and he was one of the biggest swingers of his day. But yeah...he's gettin' his groove on something fierce!

[histre101]

@GirlWomanDead Berle is best known as Uncle Miltie because of his early show on something called TV (lol!)

[kathleen4410]

CHOOOOOO CHOOOOOO

[dkp1948]

AWESOME

[darkpassengers]

great film. I remember it in living color

[Gkublok]

entschuldigen sie, ist das der sonderzug nach pankow?

[jonjo12321]

That bass player is very happy.

[DimensionsofChange]

All those trombones, giggidy

[mishkacinco]

2:00 PSHIU PSHIU x))

[ripjump]

I want to hire a band to play this when NKP 587 runs again!!!

[ladyattis]

It's weird how much I love music like this. Then again I like early R&B and hiphop too. :3

[htljoyce]

awesome

[MrAmrguy]

This is great. What the hell happaned to our music cluture. It was great back then and terrable now

[1959Werner]

@MrAmrguy Hi,there is still great music today, bu the rest is only for money making reason

[chatoXvato]

Godamn Im 20 years old and so out of touch with my generation because this jive big band stuff just flows in my soul. Why was I born in the wrong time era. :(WHYYY!?!!?!?!?!?!!?!?

[musicmattersbaby]

I'm 22 and for the longest time have been into music like this. 'Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy' and this track, too, are particular favorites of mine!

[xMATTPERKINSx]

First off I knew a 12 year old kid who was obsessed with Elvis, didn't mean there was hope for Elvis to be popular again. On the contrary, he was picked on in real life for liking Elvis. And chances are this 16 year old kid liking this kinda music is an outcast in society and comes online to escape being picked on in real life or he denies liking it in real life. It's never cool to like the music your parents and grandparents listened to unless it's from the time of the Beatles and newer.

[Acustom997]

Excellent Song !

[Rochumz16]

im 16 and i love this music genre, there is some hope for the youth of today trust me.

[Francois21st]

35 people didn't know that train locomotives use to go 'Choo - Choo' in the days of steam. Nowadays I just use steam for baths.

[ownyourfuture1]

The "Big Band Era" of the 1930s and 40s was a time to remember. There was an incredible amount of really great music: Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Gene Krupa.

[schmitty4ws]

i love this song

[therealjoebloggs]

By the way, re: Milton Berle... true.

[chettmansberger]

Beautiful! For more fun, check out the Zeke Zarchy movie on youtube -an interview he did years ago (at a very young 79), regarding his Bif Band years with Glenn Miller and others (plenty of B.B. music included in the footage).

There was simply no music to compare to that style, and nothing to compare with it since, eh?

[therealjoebloggs]

Three short points:(1) Nice 3D touch there, Glenn! (2) Milton Berle was in this film for the same reason Wilfrid Brambell was in Hard Day's Night, to be the comic relief; (3) at least an instrument-sync'ing Jackie Gleason is not the bassist in this one-- they got the real fellow.

[olli77hajnal]

Udo Lindenberg- Sonderzug nach Pankow.

[raychapa01]

Take me back too those days- ray

[delora33]

Why is it that the bass players are such an important part of the band and yet are so overlooked by so many people. Not only was this bass player good, he was funny. Viva la bass players!!!!

[minuana7]

beatiful music...!

[andromedarr]

I'd love to play this in my Big Band. Does anyone have a link where i can buy a sixpack of sheets with the Chatanooga CHoo Choo in it?

[crazydog99007]

Nothin could be finer than to have your Jan and eggs in Carolina

[lenny121]

one word.. Black Books

[chernobyl666]

The state of my iPod Shuffle at the moment: The Glitch Mob's Drink the Sea, followed by my comprehensive Glenn Miller and Billie Holiday collection. There's no reason that they can't go together.

[Luckyman1960]

Die beste "Band" die jemals exestiert hat! Der Sound unvergleichbar

[elkkijedi]

Devin Townsend's childhood music

[8166292]

This was the number one hit on the charts when Pearl Harbor was attacked on December 7, 1941

[PS6129]

@8166292

Yes and I was lying on the floor listening to the radio. They were playing 'Elmer's Tune' when they broke in to announce the raid. It was great growing up with that music.

[seeriktus]

"wont you choo choo me home..."

:3

[DjHamHam411]

Love this kind of music. There is a special place in my heart for 30's and 40's music. It fits nice and snug right next to the film noire and other movies of that time. God, I wish I was born during this period.

[chrisdimson]

Hey decca/what squadron was your POP's in?434? my Dad is still alive,he was a radio operator,maybe he knew your POP's?? he was in BURMA also e-mail me at chris_dimson@yahoo.com

[EvaMarieC]

[MuPartsch]

[Stigga98]

This must be fave song and i am only 13!?

[Moonpally]

[BlackDragnFilms]

Tex Beneke and the Glenn Miller band are amazing! They're so much better than most artists today! Oh, and the Andrews Sisters are up there as well :)

[MakxGothyk]

and there i was thinking that black books made up the song... honestly did not know it was an actual song

[Lardawan]

Is there a version where the colored performers are not cut?

[EvaMarieC]

@Lardawan Yes.. I just found it; it seems that it's not permitted to post a link here, so I will send you a message with the link.

[2lipsAmsterdam]

I've been going down memory lane tonight with an absolute eclectic mix of music, Jimmy Osmond (believe it or not) first ever single, eighties favourites and for some reason I thought to type in Glen Miller. Need to watch the film with Jimmy Stewart again now. Is this the most fantastic music or not!!!

[fjbutch]

29 people are brain dead...

[sproutcentral]

@fjbutch Not me...I love it !!!

[fjbutch]

[WestonWarriorsGoalie]

Big band american music needs to be exposed more to children and adults of all ages.

[decca003]

@WestonWarriorsGoalie If you ask me, youtube makes it a lot easier for young people to get caught in this entire world of swing music

[kgwustrow]

@decca003 I totally agree. I am 26 but my parents were born 1923 & 1925 and my Pop served in the Army Air Corps Berma, India, China theatre. Storybook ending, he went to Chicago when the war was over to thank a woman who had been writing him. They courted and married. were married 50 1/2 yrs before Lue Gehrig's disease took Pop. Mom's gone now and it's good to hear this music again and for my little girls to hear it. :)

[itsbridgetlogann]

@WestonWarriorsGoalie I'm 14..lol. Jazz and Swing is my second favorite genre of music. 60's Rock & Psychedelic being my number one.

[11Martyr11]

@WestonWarriorsGoalie thats impossible, especially if lil wayne and lady gaga remain alive.



[Fuleadeare]

@11Martyr11 Woa now buddy. There ain't no reason someone can't like Gaga AND Chattanooga. 

[ReactArts]

@shawnkilledyou Music not about Getting laid in a club?! then you clear;y haven't heard "Jizz in my pants" by Lonely Island ;]
