[CHCHuser]

Better than Veggie Tales.

[soko9984]

Had this movie on VHS as a kid, couldn't stop watching it! Never knew this was a stevie wonder song until I got older it was just a raisins song like all the rest lol!

[HomeCinemaenter]

Black raisins

[Tennisman81]

I didn't mind them but when you think about it, the original people who did the sings probably never saw a royalty check because the companies that owned the songs were milkin em' for every dime

[arcticshade1]

Lol, My brother has Inyaphobia and I sent this to him, lol.

[karevo123456789]

omg!!!!! every time this song comes on i mention raisins singing it and nooooooo one ever knows what im talking about. im in tears right now. i found it and i ddnt make this up! i think this is why i love this song so much.

[Faaron67Productions]

i love the owl watching the guy fall

[dbonds831]

Racist?!?! Oh for for the love God, Shut up!

[MrCherryBlaster]

i hate raisins there so digusting why would they make this shit

[sfabro]

im pretty sure my sisters and i absolutely wore this tape out. still love it!

[TehKarmaPolice]

Does anybody else find this a little racist?

[TheDevilbuster]

@TehKarmaPolice No, not at all. They're a bunch of raisins singing. What's racist about that?

[karevo123456789]

@TehKarmaPolice how could you possibly find this racist?

[TehKarmaPolice]

@karevo123456789 Shriveled up raisins look like old black musicians.

[karevo123456789]

@TehKarmaPolice well no they look like raisins with legs. and so what they look like black musicians. they covered the music of black musicians. what do you suggest they look like? would u prefer they be golden raisins, thereby an "old white" raisins band?

[TehKarmaPolice]

@karevo123456789 I'd prefer them to never have had to exist and for you to just the fuck up. That's what I would prefer you dickhead.

[karevo123456789]

@TehKarmaPolice ah don't get ur panties in a bundle sugarpop. all an expression of opinion, right? urs is just silly.

[TehKarmaPolice]

@karevo123456789 Oh well I'm MAD. And when I get mad I get silly. You don't want to mess with a hysterical man, let me tell you that much.

[patriciahaguewood]

California Raisins are kick ass!!!

[Erynomi]

good times, good times

[IsabellaZilla]

The California Raisins have a way of making any song sound a million times more awesome than it already did!

[Pukekura35]

Best version of Signed, Sealed, Delivered EVER!!!

[moshomaniac1]

I mean 1:40

[moshomaniac1]

My favorite part is at 1:41. The 1st time I saw this, I couldn't stop laughing.

[skylarwill]

thats some foot tappin music right there

[Plumavision]

What were the girl raisins called, The Raisinettes?

Haw

Haw

[SongsJerome]

We used to watch this movie every Friday night.

[lank05]

Starring in The Hangover Part 2 xD

[Twineball]

Thank you for posting this. I just had a great trip down memory lane. :)

[quakerninja]

I ate a grape.

[SongsJerome]

@quakerninja LOL WFT

[moshomaniac1]

Wow. Just Wow. All the people here who just had a huge nostagia trip watching this, say I.

I'll go first: IIIIIII!

[AzureXVIII]

@typomanbros No, this is the version done specifically for the Meet The Raisins TV special. The lead vocals are sung by Buddy Miles, if I recall correctly.

[jedisquidward]

They still give me nightmares.

[RockyBalboa211]

Perfection.. simply perfection!! :D 

[MsKallen3]

i used to rewind the shit outta this movie just for the songs

[r0b0tj0n3s]

i can't believe i found this, holy shit...

[MWolfL]

"They were pure un-wrinkled talent."

Aw geez, I've seen this film countless times and I just got the joke now! XD Of course the manager does talk pretty fast. Still, that's the cool thing about watching childhood favorites, you get things you didn't get back then.

[singit6]

I nearly pissed myself when I found this. What amazing childhood memories. I could cry

[caliraisin45]

Hmmm... the california raisins... I might have heard of them before :D

[Alientank]

I miss being a kid and watching this. No cell phones, computers, etc.

[TheInnerSanctuary]

I feel kinda crappy because I like this version over Stevie Wonder's. :\

[typomanbros]

@TheInnerSanctuary Well, I'm pretty sure the audio is from a live performance of Stevie, instead of using the studio version.

[masterjon3]

i feel like i went in a time machine and i'm now in the 90's or 80's or something

[jpsharon098]

awwwe California Rasins... i wanna be a kid again!

[jsh020]

this is just weird.......but still i miss claymation. this is fun to watch. we rarely see it anymore. hell stopmotion is the only one we saw with coraline(awsome movie) and corpse bride and man how old is that film

[AngelicaValentine]

some people are born grape others have grapness thrust upon them

[Legionfan454]

you know its really sad you don't see cool/weird shit on TV like this anymore (at least not nearly as much.) I mean now the only thing to feel the awsomely weird quota is Adventure time & Aqua Teen.

[sjakds]

wtf

[dholmlund]

Epic. Classic.  Good post!

[katkent100]

I Loved this Freakin show!!!!

[ddb57able]

fun fun fun!!!!

[FutureDJHero]

I wonder who voice them, Stevie Wonders maybe? They should bring them back and make TV series about them!

[LottieDottie71]

@FutureDJHero

Buddy Miles (of Jimi Hendrix Band of Gypsies) was the original lead-singing voice.

[JujixFruit]

I used to love this show when I was a kid!

[mmoneyitswhereitsat]

i hardly remember this lol

[emmatimberlake]

OMG! I used to love this as a kid! You just let me relive a part of my child hood for 3 minutes and 2 seconds. Thank you!

[Utubeblows]

Man - these Vintoneers- pure talent, I love the raisins!

[rusticgt]

Man... the good ol days....

[86CedricO]

I remember watching this video when I was little. I still love these guys :)

[WeApOnPrImE]

Man, it was great being a kid back then. When cartoons and the like were actually good and introduced you to things, like good music.

Now..... I weep for the future...

[ksha]

[KiteKatsumi]

I went with a group dressed as the Cali Raisins a couple Halloweens ago. Trick or treated, then danced through stores and restaurants (we carried a stereo playing "I Heard It Through The Grapevine") It was AWESOME.

[hsummerlewis]

[LPOSLA]

The California Raisin Show is an animated television series based on the Claymation advertising characters The California Raisins. The show was animated by Murakami-Wolf-Swenson and lasted only thirteen episodes. CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE POST THIS CARTOON!

[jgdove03]

Todo el sabor (8)

[adrew9200]

Their creators must have been epically stoned! I mean, this is Genius! Go 80's/90's!!!!

[kajunbaby5]

[quadlekku]

Notice the old-school VH1 logo at the end, bottom-right corner. It was used from 1987-1994 (according to Wikipedia).

[bigdewk]

i love these guys. my first taste of classic music :) ooooo baby here i am

[bekr45]

[flipponzin24]

Check Amazon and E-bay.

[jenthesweetie]

Dawn - I'm 51 and I have all the figurines too!

[joshuaTNE]

i was obsessed when i was 4

[SPARTANBURG864]

i've been watching this since i was small. to this day i still enjoy it. we still got this on vhs.

[MixedChickadee]

Omg I so remember this! :D

[FancyOwls]

I still have a California Raisins VHS.

[PRINCESS2527]

[DaveElectric55555]

[us1223]

Anyone know where I can find the Christmas Record. Did they ever make it intp a CD? I really want it.

[onvogmasaj]

lol@flog

[sugarnspice103]

WOW AWESOME!!!!!

[jdoginc]

I have the original taping of this show, from 1985 I believe. Along with rudolph, charlie brown christmas, the grinch, frosty, and garfield. ANd of course my dog i got for christmas that year. I make it a point to watch it every year, and i am 26! sad i know

[Musiclover19]

I don't think that's sad dude, I think it's totally awesome. But than again I'm a self tited "geek"

[fphcom]

I still have the original video too... and I'm 24.

[Sibe5018]

i have the figurines from my brother I'm 21 I still am that bratty little sister that takes all the cool stuff from him....

[aegnation]

oooh, hell yes! I remember this, I loved it. I think I have the movie. Need to find it. Thanks for uploading. Funny how I know of this when I was born in 89... same goes with Betty Boop. Odd.

[chrispdx]

Whatever they paid the session musicians to make this fantastic music for a throwaway claymation TV show, it wasn't enough. Forget the raisins, this is a hardcore funked-out version of S,S,D that Stevie Wonder himself would be proud of!

[dukeio]

I love it!

[jewsquad]

I only brought two movies to the war with me... Apocalypse Now, and Meet the Raisins on VHS. What else do you need?

[54spiritedwill54]

I bow before the Raisins.

[IanCritchley]
