[sallyragdoll13]

Well isn't this punny.

[wentonmastermind]

Like Yoshoku, I heard this on Stephen Fry's documentary. Lovely and amusing words borrowed from a wonderful country.

Warmest regards from an Anglo-Canadian across Lake Ontario.

[seekoie]

Brings back memories! We used to sing this song around a campfire, as Girl Guides, in South Africa. We had no idea what it meant, but we sang it anyway. Thanks for the memories.....

[libertelibre]

Ma fille de 13 ans aime beaucoup.

Très original !

[uawkn]

I find this song most interesting as Delaware is most famous for companies registering in that state especially the ones who tend to be most "naughty" like News Ltd.

[Ouruspresident]

This is so funny and I remember it since I used to hear my sisters and brother sung it by pieces when I was 6 years old ... Now I am 13,503 days old 12 days till my b day

bull shit crap

[75619630]

@daniel4224 Tossa

[wkunzelman1]

Why are they shouting Eins, Zwei, Drei, Vier? (German for 1,2,3,4) I find it... a bit out of place.

[19111ellyc]

@wkunzelman1 Why? They also shouted 'uno, dos, tres, quattro' Why don't you find THAT out of place?

[jehobden]

@19111ellyc Actually they sang "uno dui trei quattro" (Italian), "un deux trois quattre" (French), and "ein swei drei 4(sorry didn't recognize that word)" (German), but no "uno dos tres quatro" (Spanish) for our friends South of the Border.

[19111ellyc]

@jehobden So go sue them oh wordsmith

[albiatl]

God this makes me feel SO OLD!! Ive got the original 45 in the hifi cabinet!

[Jonahrf]

[Ozzzie968]

Retarded

[19111ellyc]

@Ozzzie968 Why's that? Let's hear you come up with something as cleverly rhymed?

'Ozzie is retarded...doesn't like the song....that's because he farted...playing with his dong...'

[MrPasarell]

They do not records like this any more, !!! I mean that , nice and simply and very enjoyable.

[PhillipCreeper]

A great song! Thanks for sharing. 

[TheKrayzie]

[Thenazghoul]

[perransands]

THE OLD ONES ARE ALWAYS THE BEST.THANK YOU FOR SHARING.

[Colindavies247]

This song brings to light just an infinitesimal subdivision of America's entertainment industry, and the genius of the Nation's songwriters I grew up listening to this style of music and I'm richer for the experience. I was 17 years old 1959

Colin Davies Birmingham England.

The USA gave the world great riches in music, and it didn't cost them a penny

[crucialconflict02]

ANVILAAAANIAAAAAA...

ANVILAAAANIAAAAAA.....

ANVLAAAAANIAAAAAA....

[freekingenious]

Thank you so much

[AVoiceCrying33]

We need more Perry Comos. I was born in the wrong decade

[lordhaven17]

English; one two three four, Italian; Uno due tre quattro, French; Un duex trois quatre, German; Eins zwei drei vier. Some people think the Second one was Spanish; Uno dos tres cuatro. That's not the case.

[lilylittleone]

What a spunk!

[tlcgymnast]

no there is 15!!!!!!!!!!delaware, new jersey, california, hawaii, missisipi, minesota, oregon,alaska, texas, wisconsin, new braska, arkansa, tennesi, florida, missouri

[Boredonthejob]

Anyone know why they count in German at about 1:30-1:40?

[bbnaw]

@Boredonthejob If you listen each time they count its in a different language, english, french, spanish and german dunno why :P

[lordhaven17]

@bbnaw That isn't Spanish. It goes English, Italian, French then German. Learn your languages.

[bbnaw]

@lordhaven17 lol sorrry mr language expert, they sound similar.

[lordhaven17]

@Boredonthejob They count in many different languages. The first count in English, Italian, French, then German.

[CharlesVanderbor1]

I like this song aswell and it is funny.

[Libbywibbles]

I used to listen to this all of the time when I was like 8 :P Great song! Thanks for uploading it jmanmoonwalk4! :) I find it pretty amusing too :-D!

[simcolin]

What's a mini-soda? It's a half-sized soda! It's a girly-man drink! I guess uncle Jesse thinks size doesn't matter!

[hilary815]

an americian classic i liked it !!!!!!!!!!

[Juliaflo]

It takes a modicum of intellect to sing those lyrics.

[luvsmuzik1]

Perry Como..the 7th son of a 7th son..!

cute song !!

[Oblivious100x]

Hah, We had to listen to this in the English lesson and to find 15 U.S cities.

I found only 7 ;D

Dear me... xD

[Inkyminkyzizwoz]

@Oblivious100x They're not cities - they're states!

[crazycraiky]

[Neqqi]

[TheRoyalFail]

This is wit at its very best.

[meloyellowduck]

I have a great idea for another verse: "What did Iah Weigh (Iowa) boy, what did Iah Weigh? What did Iah Weigh, boy, What did Iah Weigh? She weight a Washing-ton, boy, she weight a washing-ton, boy, she weight a washing-ton, boy; that's what she did weigh!"

[Inkyminkyzizwoz]

@meloyellowduck I'm trying to think of something for Illinois - something along the line of 'You'll find that Illinois (he'll annoy) you'

[Juliaflo]

Sweeeeeee!.

This song was very educational.

[Juliaflo]

@meloyellowduck Kind of innovative.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving.

[citybeat60]

Thanks! Haven't heard this since I was a kid. Love youtube!!

[Juliaflo]

[Snootwaller]

This Song

Delaware By Perry Como

Is A Good Song To Listen Too And I Do LikedTo Listen To It My Self And All Radio Stations Should Play This Song Delaware By Perry Como Wright Now It Is A Good Song To Play

[pickledpork]

Cool. Dela wore notalot.

[Nowhin]

Fallout 3

[Edhallick]

He forgot the other lyrics that are seldom sung;

"Where is Ida a ho boy why is Ida a ho...She a ho on the Maine street boy that`s where she`s a ho...And Georgia wants to Mount Anna..Georgia want to Mount Anna...and Kans ass..."

[Inkyminkyzizwoz]

I think I can understand why they're seldom sung!

[annie482000]

@Edhallick

Nice one, Ed!

[WillsPills56]

What a great way of naming the states.

I love Perry Como

Way to go Perry Como

[Inkyminkyzizwoz]

Delaware, New Jersey, California, Iowa, Mississippi, Minnesota, Oregon, Alaska, Texas, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Arkansas, Tennesee, Florida, Missouri.

Personally, I think the Nebraska one is stretching things a bit!

They could've included Illinois - something about 'Illinois you'!

[Inkyminkyzizwoz]

Actually, is it Iowa or Hawaii?

[girllovesmusic]

this brings back so many warm fuzzy childhood memories! Thanks for posting

[huudiduu]

Nice!

[elementskater8888]

I've never heard a song so clever!

[wilso127]

I wnt to High School and College in Delaware, and darned if I can ever remember having heard this one befire!!!

[samsmall11]

we used this song to remember the slave states

[Emustacia]

this is hilarious :D

[delidates]

As I was a child born 1957, and being appropriatly named Adela

These words were aggrivatingly sung to me constantly,and probably 90% responsible for making that shy child cringe and want to hide from society for the first few years of her childhood.

[frankiehearts]

I used to date a girl named Virginia. We called her Virgin for short but not for long! hahahaha

[sholayisme2]

Oh man one major mistake - it wud have worked much better if he changed 'boy' to 'eh' - 'what did mrs sip, eh?'

get it???

[gramule]

yes, what a sound point, and wouldn't have detrated from the lyrics either.

[sholayisme2]

*sigh* if only i was around in his day to tell him

[gramule]

Had forgotten about this, and heard it on Stephen Fry. It was always on the radio when I was growing up in the UK in the 50/60's. The power of You Tube!

[smwca123]

A rousing musical lesson in American geography, if nothing else. It counts off 15 states: Delaware; New Jersey; California; Hawaii; Mississippi; Minnesota; Oregon; Alaska; Texas; Wisconsin; Nebraska; Arkansas; Tennessee; Florida; and Missouri.

[XiLoveTheBeatles]

This is cool.

But I live in Delaware and its boring. ):

Lol.

[youngmoigle]

Delaware got into the Top Twenty in Australia in 1960. I was 15 at the time and I just loved it.

[chg657]

This is from 1960, IIRC

[britishoceanliners]

heard thic song on Stephen Fry as well, strange but fun

[cosworth6nut]

I have heard this on the wireless a few weeks ago and it is fab. I remember another, but I cannot remember if it is a record or not, where each of the American states are spoken, but I cannot for any more than that...

[bushmistress]

I loved this forgotten song. Reminded of it whilst watching Stephen Fry's programme. Only needed to hear the name of the state "Delaware" and was singing it in my head.  My hubby had never heard the song - EVER!!! I'm forwarding this so that he can have a listen.

[xTwilightBabe19x]
