[LTL30]

What scary world do vegetables sing in? Yes, I found this to be funny. Thank you for sharing this with everyone.

Funny

[shaharfrydman]

is it real swedish?

[Poclisify]

@shaharfrydman No. When the Swedish chef speaks you can hear him speak jibberish and throw in an english word every now and then describing what he's doing. But he doesn't speak a word of swedish. I'm swedish, so I would know :P

[SHEMIKA1994]

he said mick jagger he really did!!!

[catholicgamer99]

This is very good puppetry. The movements of the cook are surprisingly life-like.

[haveasliceofmypie]

@catholicgamer99 That's because he's manned by two people, and there are real hands inside his hands, unlike a lot of the other Muppets who have their hands on thin metal rods. Rowlf (the piano-playing dog) is also done the same way.

[moticita]

the veggies are sooo cute

[Tasje17]

Oke, I have to change something.. It's Boswachters, not Boswandeling.. Almost the same, but whatever. Still cool to recognice something.. Now I am sitting here, the sing the original song of it.. :P

[123loveamy]

hmm

[MusicMan32K]

I like the version they did on the Steve Martin episode better.

[Wolfmaedchen]

Oh gosh, the lettuce is sooo cute!

[boxerbom]

oh my god they kinda ruined a song for once especcialy when one knows the original which is dutch btw

[Tasje17]

@boxerbom Haha, Yeh.. well the original song of this, is also a joke.. :P It's like a party song in our country, I watch this for the first time, and I recogniced something. Pretty cool.

'Maar ja, ik heb geen bananen, ik heb geen bananen vandaag!'. (Boswandeling - Bananenlied)

[wcbgn]

okay I know this has got to be polish xD

[nerdface92]

ha. wow. wrong show. im embarassed.

[nerdface92]

0:06...the girl is wearing a dress with cleavage...so im still trying to figure out why katy perry's outfit was such an issue

[muppetsstoogesfan1]

@nerdface92 sesame street was a kids show the muppet show was not really a young children type of audience

[imardfun]

@AlwaysDisagreeing no it was written by de boswachters and where is the Jordaan??? AMSTERDAM!!!!

[soccergyrl234]

I thot they were just singing jibberish.... not sweedish? I should really read the comments first >_<

[Tusindskridt]

@soccergyrl234 that is gibberish. That, whilst most entertaining, has never been close to sweedish

[imardfun]

[lars330]

@imardfun fail! A dutch version is made but it is not made by a dutch person. Do some research first :/

[SinnFein4ever]

Were they singing in Sweedish?

[TheDextroenergy]

@SinnFein4ever Come on, know your tv history dude!!

[AnimeLoverOfMusic]

@SinnFein4ever no, thats definetly NOT swedish..... D:

[er10b]

they should sing with one of the other full bodied Muppets like Sweetums operating a pianola in the background playing 'Yes, we have no bananas' and all the vegies (and Sweetums) sing along.

[sheisnotmymum]

[moshymellow]

S: *mock Swedish*

W: Oh. Well, why didn't they say so in the 1st place? DOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!!!

Way to go, Statler and Waldorf! 1:38

[moonybomb]

The Swedish Chef is still my favorite muppet. Always has been, always will be. :D

[italik13]

[QueenBeatlesWings]

the muppets are hilarious- where have all the good tv shows like it gone?

[DarthWill3]

I wonder what Statler said in Swedish? That's pretty funny!

[kaboutertjuh]

I'll ask a Singapore friend and see if he think it does.

[QueenBeatlesWings]

@pree97 the Swedish chef speaks fake swedish but this song is in spansih

[drippingyellowmadnes]

@QueenBeatlesWings Doesn't sound like any spanish I've ever heard. :S

[MissFroglover]

The Swedish Cock... well I wonder why people is laughing - they don't understand Swedish and this is not - I would find it funny as I am... Swedish =oD

Don't get a word they sing... so then I wonder does Swedish sound like this XoD

[pree97]

[danbit5]

[NaiTaiDai]

[benjovi356]

I don't care what you call it, but I sware I heard him say "Mick Jagger" at 0:36...

[StuBBy212]

Oh my God, he does.

[SEVFEST]

@benjovi356..... in fact he DID say Mick Jagger LOL Great ear you have my friend I LOVE THIS

[jusaLOSER]

@benjovi356 cause even the Muppets have "Moves like mick jagger!" LOL!

[TheKasper66]

@benjovi356 holy shit

[AwesomeY11]

@benjovi356 IKR!!!!

[FREEASTHESTARS]

@benjovi356 I agree! I heard it too!

[landosalemchainsaw]

did Statler actually speak yiddish or did he just loose his teeth

[landosalemchainsaw]

i mean Swedish

[Kannibalkocken]

erhm... that's NOT Swedish. You haven't heard it, have you?/ Native Swedish speaker

[Keijz74]

Gibberish. :o)# Or Jim Hensonish?

[IdleBystander1]

I never thought the muppets could lie to me

[alex80808]

I saw this act on the Steve martin episode when they auditioned 8)

[azulo65]

Boy, you can't beat the Muppets for entertainment!

[Keijz74]

And I really like the eggplant dance.

[momochan98]

yeaah i agree! lol

[Keijz74]

The fennel, the potatoes and the tomato have the nicest voice if you ask me.

[karstenda]

Hilarious!!!!

[Gabrielle261]

Smic du grubleaa bananna, da scuska bananna du smick!

[Keijz74]

I agree on that.

[DaimyoD0]

I second that.

[er10b]

@Gabrielle261 it means 'we have no bananas, we have no bananas today'.

[CatpurrRobertaBobbi]

It may sound like gibberish but I bet it took ALOT of work to put this together! AMAZING

[Crassygyrinus]

Jim Henson actually devised the chef's voice by listening to tapes about how to learn Swedish.

[Keijz74]

Powered by Linguaphone? Well in that case a warm thank to them for Hours Of Entertainment! And to the late Mr. Henson and his also genious co-workers.

[Keijz74]

And how can you sing in Gibberish without laughing, how can you do it credibly?
