Πολύ ορέο τραγούδι

[xparamore4evrxD]

i mean gwen stefani

[Estarfigam]

@xparamore4evrxD she copied from this musical

[xparamore4evrxD]

so i watched this movie in school and all the girls started singing over the music"if i were a wealthy girl" by christina aguilera

[Pusztabereny]

Bessenyei Ferenc - Ha én gazdag lennék (If I Were a Rich Man)

Ez is tökéletes!

Love from Hungary!!

[TravisRunecaper]

We watched this movie at school. Was so funny

[troubel911]

that whole staircase thing had so confused when I was little :P and the whole geese thing. If you're rich why would you want a bunch of animals running around???

[earthy28]

@troubel911 Don't quote me on this, but I think it's because if he were wealthy, he'd have the money to have those animals. The fact that he'd have them would show he was wealthy.

[troubel911]

@earthy28 yah I get that now. But when I was little I was soooo confused

[00chicken101]

Tevye is the 99%.

[fizygirl18]

gwen stafani did her own version of this song. its funny!

[PsychoticGeek23]

Tevye: If I were a rich man...

Golde: You'll be late for the Sabbath!

Tevye: Knock on my door! Knock next time! ...did you see anything?

Golde: No, Tevye, I didn't see you dancing and singing to the animals again.

Tevye: Good.

[smoothcriminal10000]

XD XD XD We watch this in Chior n evrytime he starts to shimmy our class looses it!!!

[flowerflip00]

@smoothcriminal10000 we do that 2 our teacher is mrs tipton

[RebeccaNichole]

yeah, just shimmying in my dorm room. no big deal. <3

[50percentGrey]

Might as well be the Jewish Community's National Anthem. :/

[LaserPL]

10 people are already rich :)

[MsBillitsa2]

super!

[gimbledink7227]

when you're rich, they think you really know, lol

[Roflstampede]

Although I didn't think about it at the time, I feel really priveledged to have watched this guy live on stage before he retired.

[phanfinger]

This musical is so great. Not only does it have fantastic songs and a badass lead but it also has a good story. Usually you can only get two of those.

[mrwizard1111]

The story of Fiddler on the Roof takes place in Russia under the Czar and before communism. I have studied communism quite a bit and its history. There are many versions of communism but they all have one thing in common and that is a 100% failure rate. If you don't think so look at the history of any communist country.

[ARP7777777]

@mrwizard1111 Not true at all. Top down government has a 100% failure rate if there is no way for the two groups to communicate.

[eriyana12]

XD I watched this movie with my dad a few years ago. <3 We still make jokes about it.

[jjbacker11]

I love Fiddler on the roof!!

[endtyrany]

There are no rich men cause its all perspective. There are those without a dollar to their names but have family and friends that love them. If you asked that man if he were rich he might say he was the wealthiest in the land. I guess what i'm saying is it's all relative. Hopefully one day there will be no classes, no poor,rich or middleclass just people in a world based on unity, cooperation and equality with no borders, no theft, no war, no lies, no distrust. A united world utopian society !

[LeFaucheur]

that would be nice. personnally, money isn't important to me, and I try to not be too egoist, but i realise that in this world, if you want to survive, the best way is to be ambitious, cupid, merciless... if you are just good, you just end up on a cross... :-(

[ARP7777777]

@LeFaucheur Bull. The desire for enough, and the desire for eternity alone, are two different things.

[ilshengchyilama]

@LeFaucheur wait cupid? teach me this third aspect of the victorious personality!

[tattoonaters]

@endtyrany I am pretty sure China and Russia came up with a similar idea..... They called it Communism.

[endtyrany]

@tattoonaters Communism is the form of government they have not an economic system! What i am describing is called a resource based economy and would be based on a democratic society! Though RBE is sometimes called stateless communism let me assure you it is quite different. PS: you wont have to worry cause there are too many greedy, selfish, narcissistic, egotistical, vain, imperious people and so i guess we are stuck in a world filled with war, greed and pollution! Goodluck with it !

If I were a rich man, I wouldn't have to work all night long. and THAT would be the sweetest thing of all.

[richeyjo]

I love your taste in music, it is just like mine (lol). Can't wait to watch more of your videos.

[santi31894]

[C4rbine398]

Lol I noticed this just after I posted; 1:42.



[C4rbine398]

Great song in an awesome movie! So catchy! I watched this like 2 months ago and today someone just by chance hummed the first 3 notes of this and it was instantly caught in my head again! I was humming this for the rest of the day, annoying people!

If I were a rich man, Yaba dibi dibi dibi dibi dibi dibi dumm.

All day long I'd bidi bidi bumm, if I were a wealthy man!

I wouldn't have to work hard! Yaba Dibi dibi dibi dibi dibi dibi dumm.

If I were a bidi bidi rich didle Diddle didle didle man!

[lavamaster530]

Love his dance :D

[Maxrock9]

7 people are Justin Bieber fans. :D

[marsisamazingilys]

@Maxrock9

Justin Bieber should remake this song, like Gwen Stefani.

[Maxrock9]

@marsisamazingilys Good lord no!

[MrChickenZombie]

@marsisamazingilys Some things are better left with the original version.

[XXXXwinnerXXXX]

YA BA DIBA DIBA DIBA TIBA DIMBA DUM

[Morgothlord47]

[GreenDevilAngel]

15% are extremly rich. (~80%)

Anyway wonderful song.

Mental journey in the galaxy

[TheProudAmerican777]

7 people are not rich men.

[sgtjeff56]

Not taking anything away from Topol but Zero Mostel was much better.

[nimojavatlacati]

I agree with him... 7 hours every day... that will be the sweetest thing of all!!!

[TheShadow111111the]

this is gay im out

[7surplus7society7]

@TheShadow111111the No one cares. Keep that to yourself.

[MateusVIII]

@TheShadow111111the you are an asshole, this is why girls never get close to you troll

[Maxrock9]

@TheShadow111111the Yeah go back to your Justin Bieber

[alexnds1]

the movie is based on Sholom M'Leham's books on Tevia, the milkman. It shows pre-1905 Czarist Russia, as there was an attempt on the Czar in 1905 called "Bloody Red October' as a prelude to the 1917 Bolshevick Revolution. The movie touches every Jewish bone in my body. It was time of my great grandparents. My grandmother lived in time of the progroms and the AntiSemitism. What wonderful piece of musical theater showing 19th Century and early 20th Century Jewish Ghetto life. Wonderful!

[zizou4111]

haha we are doing this musical at school and i am tevye!!!! i cant wait!!!!

[TMCstudentblogs]

I love this movie!!! So good... and this song just enhances it!

[yugiohvampire]

Watching this at school. I love this song. X3

[beddleleddle]

props but go zero

[Kriegsmarine0]

Dang that song is freaking awesome

[AJcubed]

At school I danced like topol at every class

[irishthruandthru]

Topol still looks great! The guy looks no older than he did in Fiddler 39 yrs ago.

[TheRjjrjjr]

I have loved this film and all of the music in it all of my life. Thank you so much for posting!

[MrPepebuo]

Este gran artista es el mas sobresaliente en su vos y su actuación

[KingOystar]

I love this song! i love musicals!

[garethccornish]

Goodsound quality but no video

[SolidSnake2345]

Mostel is better imo.

[samrat464]

Brilliant, they dont make movies like this anymore.. What a pity

[sozaj]

Gwen Steffani should have a nail bat that is tipped in battery acid shoved up her ass for bastardizing this song

[iceman720]

his dancing is what we would call "epic"

[SebIsKira]

Brilliant, Topol as Tevye is one of my favourite musical roles.

[MrVinceVinny100200]

1:43 - 1:46 lol lamo xD sooo funny

[zachottie2]

i saw this on broadway! it was brilliant

[Orb75]

Is this the middle jam of the song "Scent of a Mule" by Phish????

[ciap4u2nv3]

this sog makes me miss my days as a dancer we did this sog once *sigh* lol :)

[stl49erfan]

btw, did u know Topol was only 36 when he did the Fiddler movie in '71? 36?! I thought he was 50 or older. Some much for what i know

[Mir11Mir]

Wow! I never knew that! =O I wonder if they grayed his hair and such.

[ChristianGaylover]

You can do wonderful things in theater. Hehe. Don't know if they had to gray the hair or not, though.

[polgarathesorceress1]

@Mir11Mir they did in a way. the gray parts in his hair/bear are pieces of the directors hair that they cut ff (the director was white-haired) and wove into his hair/beard

[besping]

@stl49erfan Well hell! I feel much better about that big old crush I had on him. ;)

[exitwest]

@stl49erfan I just learned this myself the other day. A little more trivia for you - Tevye later reprized the roll in touring productions of the show and the actress who played his daughter Tzeitel in the movie appeared with him playing his wife Goldie.

[KingOystar]

@stl49erfan wow I did not know that! they did a great job "graying" him up!

[Ivansky1]

@stl49erfan Yes we all knew that!

[llaroo87]

@stl49erfan I did not know that. THanks for sharing.

[ScottishRails]

@stl49erfan WOW.

[wdh4721]

oy  .........This still makes my Bubbie cry...

[19Ewcia]

Szkoda ,że tylko angielskie komentarze,a może by tak pomyśec po naszemu ,też piękne,prawda?!

[chuzychix57]

[oldskoolhorrorjunkie]

I saw the Farewell Performance of Topol in Fiddler when it came to San Diego. It was the greatest musical I've ever seen on stage! He's just as great as he was in the film 30 years ago! I <3 Topol!

[alfamail2016]

i saw it live on broadway and alfred molina (Dr. Octopus) was tevye been addicted ever since

[only4fun]

I remember watching this movie the first time when I was a kid. I laughed and was puzzled a bit when he sings to build a third staircase  just for show.

[sammynosbest1123]

the movie is pretty awsome!! i had towatch it in music for a prodject thing i enjoyed it the dancing...well... ok..

? hahaha LOVE IT!

[BL24R]

the picture looks like george clooney from brother where art thou.

[Folik222]

its much better than gwen staffani version

[KingdomHeartsFire]

wonderful movie, one of my favorites!

[OmikronApex]

If you compare it, Gwen Steffanis "Version" sucks balls^^

[Truthiness231]

I choose to remember the younger Gwen of No Doubt and not the modern old slut with no musical direction that she became.

[norvell84]

@OmikronApex

Thank you... I agree! :)

[contactolaura]

Tuve la suerte de ir a ver la presentación de Topol a Los Angeles ayer. Que voz!...Que presencia!....Que actor!....una experiencia única.

[theawesomejimmer]

thsi song is one of my favs from this move, the other is To Life, this movie was the best tho, its a classic

[laexscitada]

[stanley4889]

[Mir11Mir]

hahahaha I know

[Ghosti7]

lol me 2...every single time I've seen this it makes me cry cuz I'm laughing soo freakin hard...

[mrwizard1111]

@unknownloner101 Did you know that the story and movie "Fiddler on the Roof" is a real story about real people who came to the U.S. as refugees fleeing religious persecution? There is quite a lot more story than what the movie shows.

[robinhodd2323]

Awesome, the songs and the whole history told in this film.

[dalekprawn]

if i were a rich man i'd grow a beard like that! (: )ll=- lol
