  • that band is good.

  • interesting clip... until now, I'd only known the Tiny Tim version... you can learn stuff on YouTube... who'd a thunk!

  • I've been waiting about 35 years to hear this song again. I've only heard it once and had no idea what it was called. I've remembered that last line ever since. The spiel sounds familiar too. Excellent. Thank you.

  • @northerbrewer I know how you feel. I have two nephews aged 21 and 19, but I've shoved a lot of music at them since they were infants (and Marx Bros. movies).

    But to this day the ask me "what is this?" and I say Porter, Gershwin, Arlen or Mercer.

    Music lives on. I wish people realized "God Bless America" wasn't meant to be political though. People need to let writers be happy and grateful, but I'm not sure how you can pull that off now...

  • more like a spoken word performance than a song

  • Groucho was a real mensch.

  • Thanks so much for posting this, classic!

  • This is great. Sad that Graucho felt the need to explain the relevance...

  • @declan32001

    Sad that most people under 40 today don't even know who Graucho was. For them the song and Irving Berlin has absolutely no relevance at all....

  • @northerbrewer Mind you I am 20 and I have know both since about 14

  • @DonovanDanteify

    Good on you.

    You one of very few that looks at history.

  • Wonderfull upload really enjoyed it.
