Harry Belafonte on the Muppet Show

[nellie2581]

I love Harry Belafonte, he's my fav singer and actor.

[Tazman23]

Lmao!!! He said "I dont work with the deadly tarantula." lmfao classic

[NeoBobDylan]

I love the Muppets, but I was born in the 90's and so I never got to see most of these people. Seeing their names on the episode list was just giberish to me. Who are these people?

The Muppets are my history lesson. And this man once unknown to me, made my favorite episode of the The Muppet Show.

[nellie2581]

@NeoBobDylan I was born in the early 80s

[MrAlasador]

i love this song

[Angel321323]

Funny muppets,charming singer and great acting,I just love the show！harry 很有喜劇感呢！那隻熊仔的對白和表現很攪笑，整個節目很有趣呢！

[TheMinecraftCamper]

my world geography teacher showed us because we are studding Latin America and then the conversation got to reggae and then cylpso.

[NorbertFM]

Absolutely great. I remember from my childhood.

[pinz2022]

@NorbertFM

He was awesome! If only he  had stayed the hell out of politics. I grew up listening to his records.

[cmsahe]

bravo!

[katatak66]

The old guys at the end were my favorite part of the show!

[chrisvlad2005]

[UnlawfulCharmeleon]

@UnlawfulCharmeleon Agreed

[MitchMike13]

Harry Belafonte is the man.

[xREVSx]

SKIP...

[chrisdrakekaka]

@xREVSx fag

[Marioiswicked]

he mentioned rum on a kids show. incoming generation of alcoholics!

[MetalGearEckz]

@Marioiswicked Muppet Show was a family show, not a kid show.

[bookfiend2009]

@MetalGearEckz TY alot of ppl dont realize it

[THEsnapcrakklepop]

LOL There's no way the lyric "a drink o' rum" would fly on today's kid shows bwahaha!!

[vampirealdys]

@THEsnapcrakklepop But there are so many worse innuendos that you see and hear on Kid's shows/movies! I hate that it is so, but it's true! lol

[mapachatecno1977]

el mejor programa d los 70¨s y los 80´s por que la televicion cambia para mal

[justasilly1]

super entertaining lmao harry's a GREAT actor indeed

[jhcgraham]

Brilliant, really put a smile on my face....... classic comedy

[kayil31]

I remember the original screening and yep, it was soooo funny when I was 10 and still is for me. I now remember why The Muppets was one of my favs back then and Harry Belefonte one of my favourite music artists. I grew up in a racist house so it didn't go down well at ALL! Still love Harry's voice, humour, style and class!

[FungusMossGnosis]

Damnit, they had real life irony on kids shows back then. Sure wish I was alive then. Damnit!

[brightbite]

Cutest spider I've ever seen! ha ha

[1944ACE1944]

[TripLxChaos]

@LatynaH justin beiber saw your comment and made his own dislike..now its 24

[illuminatioracle]

here i am the taliman or the talibear...or the taliban!

[kiekezonderkop1987]

You know what would be 'good thinking' like Fozzy said: Make new programs like 'The Muppet Show'.

It was funny, relaxing and unlike the programs kids watch nowadays, it's not full of violence.

[loveshinae]

if you pay attention to the beat and rhythm of it, lil wayne's "6 foot 7 foot" sounds similar to it. It must be where he got the inspirarion from.

[loveshinae]

@loveshinae scratch that. he did  got it from this song

[TuKaha1]

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

[62Elvis]

i spoke to mr belafonte on an airport tram @CVG once, he was a nice man to chat with; i also spoke in person with jimmy swaggart, donnie swaggart, janet paschal, john starnes, all super cool down to earth people.

[chivafanatic]

I laughed hard how the guy was like. In 3:13 "I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE FUCK THOSE ARE" haha. well he meant that. :D

[GlaciusNLV]

They don't make voices like that anymore.

[pioupqg1]

I dont see how he was able to sing with all the humor its like most of it wasn't planned.

[raggedyanarchist]

Pure joy.

[smirt]

Must of been fun to work on the muppet set.

[reivenlocke]

He and Julie Andrews once caused White America to have a coronary when they held hands on her show in the mid-60s.  LOL!

[Amanda5390]

18 people suck..lol

[Mark10141066]

Wonderful! This nice song is the unique mention of my work. I work as a tallyman in Port of Santos in Brazil.

[scomdnz9]

3:15 "i dont even know what those are" hahaha

[Nephanee]

He's trying so hard not to crack up while singing, haha!

[suryoss]

i used to be watching this with my father. and he was smiling..

[TheMikester307]

And I thought Beetlejuice was surreal!!!

[Willforss]

de-mi-sa-de-mi-sa-de-mi-sa-de

[jorden935]

(If you didnt mean the song ignor me ok.... its just i love this song so much i tend to correct people)

[kitanasnape]

@KittyKat200785 Actually, based on the rest of the lyrics, I'm pretty sure the line is "me say day, me say day, me say day-o."

[kaiser599]

[RikkytheCoolKat]

@Wh3nYour3Strang3 <3

[drumaster24]

Fozzie never fails to make me laugh

[SatchmoSings]

Harry Belafonte is great entertainer; I just got his 2nd most successful studio album "Jump Up Calypso" and it's terrific.

Unfortunately, Belafonte is not a great man; he's neurotic, very cheap and a dedicated Left-winger.

[debbiechickie5]

@SatchmoSings Pick up some Sammy davis Jr. albums...now HE was an amazing entertainer..played almost every instrument, talents for days, AND married a hot white chick. DINGDINGDING- we have a winnah!!

[fjccommish]

Harry's thinking "why didn't I have the pig chorus with me every time I did this song. WOW!"

[wastafus]

yeah, cuz he's Jamacian mon.

[GundulaBraum]

I grew up with songs from Harry Belafonte. He sings so wunderful and his human work is very important! A great person and musican.

[NelsonRB26]

This song is an all time clasic, even in such a funny setting!!!!. I love it!!!!

[Contrabot]

Fozzy Bear <3

[NZMW2nurdxbox]

i watched this in school, What a srong voice,

[DRAGONBALL74]

I have his original 1950's vinyl its Amazing

[surfergal17011]

tell me belefonte didn't have a butload of fun doing this episode. he looks like he's enjoying himself in all the skits he's in! probably why this is one of my absolute faves!

[meccaturbo]

Harry Jigaboo Belafonte

[DRAGONBALL74]

@meccaturbo cmon really what a disrespectful fuck are you dumb honkey, get your redneck ass out of here!

[meccaturbo]

@DRAGONBALL74 go crawl under a rock, you fucking trailer trash scumbag.

[DRAGONBALL74]

@meccaturbo its not really the fact that i dont have a life arguing with someone who has the mind of 60's Anti-Civil rights activist, its really the fact that i have to keep my bitches in check just your jiggabo self :)

[meccaturbo]

@DRAGONBALL74 actually I have quite a modern mindest, thank you very much. It's just that I don't like watermelons and Popeye's fried chicken the way you do. Like I said, you fucking jigaboo sympathizers should be lined up and shot in the ass just for good measure. Now get back to the 'hood and start messing around with your stolen computer, you fucking diddler.

[meccaturbo]

@DRAGONBALL74 while you're at it, speak some intelligible sentences, you fucking ebonics loving hood rat scumbag twat. That fucking sentence you typed out makes no sense, but it's not surprising given that you skipped all yoru English classes just so you could smoke crack in the back alleys with your jigaboo brethren.  That, and then those big black hoochie mama asses got to be so much that you couldn't keep your hands off of them....got your chode stuck in one too, fucking moron.

[DRAGONBALL74]

@meccaturbo What you just typed is not intelligible either, im actually lmao at what you just typed for the fact that first off im not black, second your sentences are based on black stereotypes that make you look even more un-intelligent because of the other fact that your a bigot that repeats the same thing everytime such as the stereotypes again, stop arguing your going nowhere. And if i am a so called Ebonic my sentences would have ebonic words in them, which they dont. Making another flaw.

[meccaturbo]

@DRAGONBALL74 it's quite intelligible, you retarded moron. Of course you're not black...but you WISH you were black, that's why you're down in the hood hanging out on the street corners with all the jigaboos....eating watermelons and yelling snarky comments at sistas with big fat black asses. Maybe you can get a skin transplant sometime soon, because you certainly have all the other characteristics of a black person, you fucking jigaboo wannabee.

[DRAGONBALL74]

@meccaturbo HURP DURP looks like i was right! You did just what i sad in my previous comment! Youre done, you stop making sense now, ive faced bigger assholes than you, your nothing but a child!

[DRAGONBALL74]

@meccaturbo And let me guess what your going to tell me, im a jiggabo ebonics bastard? lmao or a nigger*GASP!* lmfao!

[meccaturbo]

@DRAGONBALL74 learn how to spell, you low intelligence fuck. Obviously you have been hanging out in the ebonics crowd a little too much, since you clearly are too dumb to comprehend English. Fucking twat.

[meccaturbo]

@DRAGONBALL74 your spelling is not right...you wrote "your" when the grammar called for "you are" = "you're". You've demonstrated yourself to be an arrogant loser who doesn't have any comprehension of English. Not surprising, given your years in the 'hood.

[meccaturbo]

@DRAGONBALL74 you fucking jigaboo sympathizers should be lined up and shot in the ass for good measure. You must have a great time trolling the internet looking for anti-jigaboo posts while you sit behind your stolen computer somewhere down in the 'hood (aka jigaboo-ville). Now quit jerking off to black midget porn and get a fucking life, you cocksucking motherfucker.

[dragosrock1997]

Calitate!

[mayanlux]

[theDagda9]

[notgonnabenice]

[welshboi82]

[BoxedPaperTv]

[gyomen]

[lizalars]

I miss the muppet show. This is so funny! I loved watching this show every Sunday evening! And I love Mr. Belafonte. He is so talented. I especially admire that his first time sining this live for some time of ever is on the muppet show. I miss that show. It was REAL entertainment. Not this crap they have on now. "Reality". Please make it stop!!!

[torchstar]

I love this video so much I just showedit to my mom who's in the hospital. It totally cheered her up! Thanks for posting it.

And Harry Belafonte, in case you surf to this, Thank You for being YOU!!

[MrGirlygirlbarbie]

i love the muppets

this song was in beetlejuice

i love him

when I was little, my dad sang this to me and I laughed for the first time

[Paden1865]

He was born in New York City, New York, read the bio. Whatever, love his voice and this song. Thanks for putting it up.

[sondano]

he had that original african voice that most African-Americans lack

[YudaMaster]

He's not African/American, he's Jamaican

[WOD1980]

He was born in New York City you ass,

[YudaMaster]

[quote]Born Harold George Belafonete, Jr., at Lying-in Hospital, New York City, New York, Belafonte was the son of Melvine (née Love), a housekeeper, and Harold George Belafonete, Sr., a Jamaican[/quote]

His father was Jamacian, so that makes him of Jamacian heritage. Seems that makes you the ass.

[TheEmikodo]

YudaMaster's right.

He's totally Jamaican.

[theDagda9]

@TheEmikodo If he's Jamaican, he'd be the first one ever born in New York.

[SatyrLOL]

@sondano He's Jamaican......................

[sondano]

@SatyrLOL  and how did blacks end up in Jamaica? They were from Africa. I mean, obviously. :)

[ffeiawjion]

@sondano *has.

[deadstarlll]

@sondano HE'S AFRICAN?!!!!

[tuckshopper]

@sondano HAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAAAAA

that's the funniest thing i have read in a long time.

the 'original' african voice is far from harry, let alone american.

[sondano]

@tuckshopper it's not if you are deaf for sure

[skydome29]

@sondano Caribean, he did calypso type music.

[88sCYTHe]
