Squirrel Nut Zippers - Ghost of Stephen Foster - High Quality

[eve69ful]

1st I Love the the SNZ, thenI I stumbled accros this video I never heard of. Now it's like the 12th time I've listened 2 it. When my friend was over I mde her listen 2 it she loved it. Both the song, lyrics and cartoon and knowing warner bros. or looney tunes wasn't involved made it alot more uniqe 2 AWESUM. SNZ "said" they had the cartoon specially made for them it wasn't the song then they threw an already existing cartoon in there. Makes me like them more. ENJOY

[greendoglover]

[geraldmarkowitz]

Cartoon made by the people who make The Simpsons, completly inspired by Max and Dave Fleischer's Betty Boop cartoons. I Loved It !!!

[DorfOnCrack]

The lead sing sounds like the Robot Devil.

[bingobongo445]

 How much LSD did they do while making this cartoon!

[chumshot1]

Freaking epic!!

[himmlertico]

Great song and awesome video!!!!!

[jbarroso22]

those mice are evil!!!

[carniefilms]

reminds me of Oingo Boingos forbidden zone!

[ZRedPoppy]

@carniefilms The white tux at the beginning definitely reminded me of the Devil played by Elfman in his brother's movie too!

[zippgun1]

Brilliant! Notice the 1 mouse who is rolling over going down the chute!

[lishakara]

This is amazing. I love it when new cartoons emulate the style and soul of old ones.

[Kuijibo]

@kavurcen Thomas uses alot of ripped horn lines, lots of them are Russian. And yeah, it sounds alllooottt like it lol.

[Kavurcen]

I swear part of that horn tune is used almost unaltered in a Streetlight song.

[pauletteking]

so this cartoon copies buddy cookie and bimbo

[helruna93]

Sorry no links allowed in the posting... just search for gone bad episode 2 in the bar above

[helruna93]

Wow... a betty boop imitation. So what. What was TRUELY inspired? I liked the song but anyone who knows animation will love this. Wait for the music: Not only well animated but well directed and inspired. Puts this vid in perspective

[Yoshithedino123]

@helruna93 if you pause at 2:15 you'll notice an easter eggg, the mummy casket looks exactly like the singing ghost walrus from the betty boop cartoon "minnie the moocher"

[mlerbeable]

hey, this is Bimbo's Initiation! My all time FAVORITE cartoon! very nicely done :)

[k3lli3100]

this is a funny vid XP anyone agree

[GheoBlackPlum]

Absofuckinglutely Awe-Fucking-Inspiring!

[xsonz2]

These guys make me miss Cab Calloway

[Hanaakai]

we need them in mexico CITY!!! I want to listen them here!!!

[lalbruiz]

Damn, this is awesome, I hadn´t seen this before, and both the video and the music are great!! The video is totally trippy, sort of the Fleischer cartoons full of druggy images and scary stuff....and the music is totally nasty, makes you think of what the Brian Setzer Orchestra would sound like if they abandoned their "political correctness" gimmick. Awesome.

[MrStewietheking]

What a fckin acid trip!

[SEANTHEBEAVER]

Loved how the song is about the man who wrote "Camptown Ladies". Look it up on wikipedia.

[macaronibaby1]

What is the song during the credits? I recognize it, but can't put my finger on it..  :)

[LionTroy]

How do they stay in buisness with service like this!?

[jazzavantgarde]

@LionTroy the answer lies within the luggage at 2:25 LoL

[TheIndetify]

@LionTroy 2:26 - 2:27 LOL :)

[ziggycat999]

Great quality but soundtrack over worked.  Would like to see the original version.

[renaissancemen]

@ziggycat999 This is the original soundtrack to this short.

[jimban86]

@ziggycat999 thats was funny

[pudnog01]

@ziggycat999 This video was produced for this song!

[Dimunic]

@pudnog01 That's because it was. That's actuallyfor the music video

[sobreiro]

@ziggycat999 This was done in the 90s, dude, it's the original video, they imitated old 1930s cartoons.

[personsom1]

back in the 50s people couldn't stand still...

to be honest, neither can i when listening to this

[drakon31]

@personsom1 this song came out in about 1998....

[personsom1]

@drakon31 but was based on 50's animation

[drakon31]

@personsom1 and 40's swing.

[mistergooby]

@personsom1 no, 30's animation!

[dennykdoe]

@personsom1 No; the animation is a straight homage to the Fleisher brothers material from the 30's, particularly some of the more bizarre Betty Boop stuff. Fleisher animation makes Bugs and Daffy seem almost logical and sane--funny, but reasonable. Anything can happen with the Flelshers.Totally surreal.  Youtube up the Betty Boop "Mysterious Mose"; and you'll see. It was done, by the way, from some of the Simpsons creative team.

[cookmoore]

Really enjoyed the cartoon and song!

[ChameleonLost88]

I pooped my pants on this one... =0(~

[TechnocolorDreamboat]

This song is amazing. I absolutely LOVE the SNZ.

[TheEndKing]

Good shit.
