[guitargold77]

if it wasnt sung nasal style it woukld have faded away its not Bejonce or shirley temple its Gayla Peevey

[SparklingSherry]

It's a nice video, well put together, but the artist who sang the song really should be given credit.

[CraftyMatthew]

Definitely NOT Shirley Temple. She could sing, this girl is all nasal.

[jamesbizs]

@CraftyMatthew You trying to say that Gayla Peevey couldn't sing? I'd like to see you do better.

[bluedoggarden1]

LOL Lips don't match up with the song////

[breezymariexoxoxo]

@bluedoggarden1 Because Shirley Temple isn't the one singing. And this video is a bunch of clips put together duh.

[jamesbabychelsea11]

Gayla Peevey also sings this song but this is the version from Shirley Temple .! Also the little girl in all the video clips from this is of Shirley Temple .!!

[eastender42]

@jamesbabychelsea11 The video clips are Shirley Temple, but Shirley Temple did not ever record this song.

[91Bear]

@jamesbabychelsea11 NO, it's not. This is Gayla Peevey - recorded in 1953. Shirley was 25 by then.



[WasAbiRASP]

@jamesbabychelsea11 Not true.

[bmk4evasinging]

@jamesbabychelsea11 exactly my thoughts

[movieman6836]

@jamesbabychelsea11 Shirley Temple did not record this song that I can find. Written and recorded in '53 as you said.

[saltlakedood]

What movie is this from?

[npdrama123]

This song is by Gayla Peevey....not Shirley Temple

[TheNikeswag]

she is cute! but shes 85 now but i still love her movies

[allysonalea]

@TheNikeswag she's 83

[ccka9]

@TheNikeswag can't imagine what she looks like now! 

[AlannaNarcotic]

Shirley Temple doesnt sing this song..... I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas is a Christmas novelty song written by John Rox (1902–1957) and performed by Gayla Peevey (10 years old at the time) in 1953.

[minillable1]
