[MrOlird]

Óóóh igen! Ezek az igazi, eredeti 40-es évekbeli rajzfilmek csodálatosak!

Ooh, yeah! These original 40's cartoons are awesoms!

[nederland4045]

Nice video, great song but I prefer the 1930s original.

[AnnaOlivares]

I like this. Good!!!!!

[zeak62]

[SNOOPY69210]

[luigiisgreen]

[D0rad01]

[kakashidemon321]

What show/episode is the clip with the player cat? :D

[sheillinhartv]

[TheRomanitza]

me too i'm sad and lonely

[Jody07984]

clever and amusing

[EliGetsChicks]

I'm just a gigolo.

[WSenator1]

At 3:21 - The skeletons must be Florida Gator fans!

[xDaZJMx]

Haha I downloaded this song just to play it in a french doss class. The teacher came in when it started saying I'm Just a Gigolo! Almost got caught and all too bad the teach is a idiot :D

[cyfred34]

It's the definition of a freelance worker. He's just a gigolo and when he will pass away, life will go on without him ;)

So i'm just a gigolo !

[WSenator1]

This is brilliant! Post more, please.

[donstefano57]

just great

[marcolabcom]

...il trucco c'è ma non si vede...

[jacknapier37]

great !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WSenator1]

Title's a bit inaccurate - not much Betty Boop, not ENOUGH Betty Boop! But I liked the video. Question: Is it a coincidence that about the same time (the 1930s), Paramount Studio had Max Fleischer (the animator here), the Marx Brothers, Mae West, and WC Fields - all rather out-of-the-mainstream, off-the-wall folks?

[smagisa]

so cute !

[eatfireyum]

great stuff ,cupcake!

[angel101443]

wow this is interestingish

[MaxThrasher666]

Betty Boop! What a dish! (c)

[KurdtMk2]

This part with dancing roasted duck is freakin creepy.

Seriously.

[WSenator1]

@KurdtMk2 - That's Max Fleischer, the animator here. You think this is weird? Check out some of his other cartoons. You ain't seen nothing yet!

[christopherm2k]

I really love the somewhat unexpected segue into the cartoon sequence. It makes me laugh every time. And that is quite a compliment from someone that is so "sad and lonely."

[KatiaImeldaMarcos]

This is sweet thanks for sharing

[matsudosaien]

Let's dance with a cooked chicken!

[Allen58mi]

hahahaha. What a fantastic video. Great editing.

[yandy2412]

gotta hate the classics how can people actually like this kind of music? how old are you people, like 800??

[cha5]

Not half as much as I hate

smart mouthed punks,

You're 14? big suprise there.

[thebeatles4ever]

Heh, don't generalise all of us "smart mouthed punks" together. I'm fifteen, yet I'd much rather listen to good old soulful music like this than most of the glittered-up, vain, hollow rubbish we get nowadays.

Not to say that one can't find a few good gems now and then in the shit-heap the world dubs as the "music industry."

[vegitarean44]

no buddy, classics is where people worked on music than making music videos . ha ha wtf has happaned in the world man.

[towertooth456]

oh wait no...he isn't...sorry my bad...

[towertooth456]

hh i get it, the cat is like a sexual predator...lol...

[harlaz]

kelly smith is singing with him - his 1st wife

[calledkidblast]

This is so awesome amazing! Some of those old cartoons were pretty freaky, though.

[stellaluna92]

who is the woman, singing? It isn't Mae questal or helen kane is it?

[cha5]

Keely Smith maybe? I'm not sure.

[whenaman]

Yes. No voice like hers. Any good musician can recognize it. :) (NJ~USA) 'NJ', where the best musicians' come from. ;) lol

[mikecupcake]

It's Irene Bordoni, check out the 'reply to' video for the original.

[whenaman]

The lady in the video, but the background voice is Keeley, unless I'm losing my hearing. ;)

[mikecupcake]

Indeed, didn't read your post properly :)

[thisprovidence121]

@whenaman oh thank God! I thought that lady had a man voice! lol! now I see it...

[TheRealMrUku]

Outstanding. I'll be smiling all day now. Thanks much.

[bflat00]

TERRIFIC!! in the 50s Betty Boop cartoons and Big Bang Swing was an oasis in a desert of Perry Como, Diana Shore, Dancing Bears, pre Elvis. The video of the human Betty Boop was a grest find! .. many thanks for posting. Nice editing as well.

[foamy2345]

[doneto91]

[MasterplanMan]

Great job on a great song sung by a great singer. TXS.

[Guernicaman]

How old is this song originally?

[theGrape]

from wikipedia - adapted by Irving Caesar in 1929 from the Austrian song "Schöner Gigolo", written in 1928 by Leonello Casucci (music) and Julius Brammer (lyrics).

[Guernicaman]

Thanks, Grape. Just learned something new today!

[apblo]

Best video ever!! Great song, hilarious clips. I've taken to watching this when I need a good laugh -- always does the trick :D

[bigbandit]

This really inspired me. Excellent marryiage of the 1930s live footage with the Betty Boop cartoon, with the perfect soundtrack. I love this. Straight to my faves...

[mikecupcake]

thanks - as it happens the live footage is from a Betty Boop cartoon! check out the 'response to' clip.

[battenwood]

Mike, you have Louie with Betty Boop...have you seen Louie with Betty Blue? My friend Pataphysician did a vid with them--"Ce la Luna"--see what you think!

[Maildureira]
