IN THE MOOD ~ A 1940s Big Band/Swing Musical

[platez81]

Hmm not a professional big band huh?

The baritone sax is way off in 0:04 and the singers are coming in different in the beginning, not too nice. Otherwise a nice amateur orchestra!! good job!

[THEcrazylady9118]

i would love to be able to dance like them... i dont think that i could do the flips tho lol

[GaylordSC]

what the hell? this song has words???

[sandi43able]

"Grandpa's music was cool way better than the hippy shit dad listened to! Look at all the beautiful people."

My folks' music was Swing. Mom's dad was a house musician at Blossom Heath, the Big Band venue in Oklahoma City -- looking pretty on Route 66.

But it was segregated, like the South where so many black musicians who inspired Swing played. No coloreds allowed, except entertainers.

The South was still segregated when the hippy shit put an end to that BS.That was really beautiful.

Being born in 1996, looking back on how happy everybody was back then and content, i wish we could go back!

[ClassicaFan]

Didnt grow up in that era, but really enjoy this song (in the mood), was considering going to the show, but not sure. really like this music and dance though!!!

[FalconProduktions]

Why does music suckk now?



[229kara]

@FalconProduktions because no heart and soul is in today's music.....today's music is about making money instead of having fun telling a story.

[kiraofthewasteland]

I hope like in fallout when it is 2030 and ill be my dad's age that music resets so old music back baby!

[229kara]

@kiraofthewasteland me too.

[prGRMY12]

im def in the mood

[ABookwormAndProud]

I'm curious about what this play might be about....

[SwingDancer61]

@Nigelzanproductions You can still find places that dance like this.

[alliecat1941]

its so nice that youtube is still keeping the good old music alive..and to show everyone...how good it was..and that it will never die

[thehoneyhoneygirl]

i never realised there were lyrics to this song XD x

[Dominoe11112]

Mmmm... Not sure if in the mood really fits with vocals :/ sorry

[GeorgeVreelandHill]

Great video.

Thank you.

George Vreeland Hill

[PeteAndJakee]

this is great a vocal version good!

[HoboGus]

Cool Video!!!

[jabberwoki999]

@ rapperjz, i totally agree

[Venglishful]

THE WAR IS OVER!!! ^^

[melodharmony]

@Venglishful Which war? yes this is synomnous with WW2 we know that, but it is also a reminder of the wonderful music of those,, for some terrible times. It was'nt propaganda either and was'nt got up as aresponse to war it was in fact the music of the times before the outbreak of WW2. A lot of the youner generation even today appreciate its quality, yes music has moved on and some of it today is wonderful and that too will have to bear the test of time.

[MrJORGERAMOS123]

Dammn I wished todays music was like this.

[RockinMartin13]

@MrJORGERAMOS123 There's a lotta good music around, if you look around, you'll find it! Swing is still alive!

[papuette]

i just feel sorry that the good, amazing, from god's music where used, in some how, to war propaganda. but, anyway, amazing talented man this glenn miller.

[anlee617]

OMG...In the Mood has lyrics!!!!???

This is my favorite song!

[Trumpetz97]

1:37-absolutely amazing!!!

[glenw89]

this is ok but nothing beats 1980's music :)

[joeyguitarlo]

@glenw89 You R kidding right? Tears for fears vs. Glen Miller. I think not. The musical knowledge these cats has can put us all to shame. I dare not "critique" what I can't even play.

[GassyMaskz]

someone get that bassist a decent pick up

[nightgrooveruk]

AWESOME THANK U NAMASTE HIGH VIBRATIONAL SOUNDS :):):)

[alonmerlin]

gta love this sort of music much better then the rap and crap of today

[comradethird]

this is the music of America, it should be here today instead of "Baby, Baby"

[MrGreddyPete]

Adorable swing!

Anyone who doesn't move at least one bodypart when hearing this has no sense for music :)

[Kakarot21591]

I never knew this had lyrics! I MUST see this musical!

[LMA629]

@Kakarot21591 i didn't know this had lyrics either! but ive heard the music so much

[1oclockjump]

[redlinechavez]

Glenn Miller FTW!!!

[Andyfirthjazz]

A time when good music was popular and popular was good!

[Auricknoble]

Grandpa's music was cool way better than the hippy shit dad listened to! Look at all the beautiful people.

[LMA629]

@Auricknoble idk i like the '60's hippie shit better but this is good too

[jhonny14021984]

[girlfromhazleton53]

[babypaintball47]

who sings this song in the vidoeo?

[CMHintheHOUSE]

I was wondering if anyone knew where I could download this song or buy it at? My pom team is doing a routine to this song and we can't find it anywhere. Thanks:)

[Rizrsniper]

Well I know what my next project is. I will try to play swing on my cello.

After seeing this it should come naturally. I think seeing the dancing helped because it shows to rhythm and style.

[rapperjz]

i agree with hotsilkbutterfly. I love the 1930's music. i hope heaven is styled just like the 1930's.

[KibaMonster]

me too except without the great depression

[LoveJamieNicole]

@rapperjz im totally with you on this.

[theguru95]

@rapperjz its 1940's

[hotsilkbutterfly]

[dovermoreno]

Great video !

I like the part at 0:19 when that dude pulls out a bottle of booze from his shirt...

I gotta party with THAT guy !

[KBG0813]

YES.

[swinginkatz]

Great , Great  Flick.

[ttango1]

They do a great show. I watched them in San Diego and totally enjoyed it.

[PaulinaRena]

What a super video here. All of the dancers are fabulous, looking wonderful and just making you feel so happy and wishing you were with them.

It had to have been a wonderful day when news of the end of the war was sent out across the land. Celebration was the main thing in everyone's minds I am sure and it's fun to see it all happening. I love the big bands' music and "In the Mood" in particular - especially by Glen Miller. The music itself is unforgettable . Thank you for this - Paula

[KayleaPayne1993]

I LOVE that song! :P
