When I was growing up in the 1950s every kids had to have a yo-yo. But as with most sports I never quite got the knack of it. I could yo well enough but the second yo never came. Hearing this bouncy song makes it all seem worthwhile.
Yes, we all played with a yo-yo in our childhood. This is a lovely, energetic and playful song. Love the pictures, especially that of the French lady with a fan and a yo-yo (on her way to watch the guillotine?
Aston is awesome in this charming joyful Polish YO YO song! I wonder if Caesar mastered the technique of "walking the dog" with his YO YO? VENI, VIDI, VICI!
What a discovery. . . Aston makes the word yo-yo sound vaguely Yiddish,a reverse of "oy"! Yo-yo is also American slang for an ever-so-slightly crazy or dim-witted person. Sort of like a schlemiel.
too bad Pedro Flores or Duncan did not build a yo-yo factory in the Philippines
Its hard to buy Yo-Yo in the Philippines :(

Wonderful recording! I have this Foxtrot on a Odeon-Record, played by the Wladyslaw Eiger Orchestra. It is the same arrangement!

I actually don't remember a yoyo hype, but I guess there has been, at a moment time in the past.
