@drking9313 - Louis Prima wrote the song and recorded it first. It was originally called "Sing, Bing, Sing" for Bing Crosby, but Bing himself recommeded the title be changed so as not to potentially limit appeal for the song.
BLA BLA BLA BLA luis is amazing BLA BLA BLA music isnt waht it used to be BLA BLA BLA Justin Bieber, katy perry, Lady Gaga. the type of comment is pretty standard on all old jazz songs
@uur8 and on most "classic" artist songs. It makes me kind of sick how people can't get over a handful of artist (I don't enjoy them myself) and listen to good music. Just because they're popular doesn't mean this era is totally void of great music.
Louis grew up New Orleans and used to pass himself off as a mulatto to play with black musicians without causing a scene. He also wrote 'Robin Hood' a huge hit that made Les Brown a star. Later, in the 1950's he and Keely Smith were king and queen of Las Vegas even before Sinatra.. Louis Prima was just amaing thanks for sharing this!
Hmmm, I prefer the Benny Goodman version. I was actually....*bored* listening to this, which is saying a lot considering how much I love music and how eclectic my taste is... :-/
I haven't played my trumpet in over 25 years, but when i hear songs like this, I can't help but feel inspired to dust it off and at least TRY and learn it.
Damn! this is good stuff! A hell of alot better than that "Autotune" crap you hear on the radio nowadays. I'm not an old geezer either... I'm 45
@KevariGrazyInarista no Id say 8-85 your getting to "quite" old. The Life Ex. age now is 77. I think old as fuck would be getting closer to 95 now. Its common place to be over 90
Louis Prima had a big hit in europe with Bouena sera in 1958. Just a gigolo/I ain't got nobody medley was a big hit for him in 1957. That medley became his signature song.
how come every time i look at the comments to a old song from any genre there is always a 14 year old boy or girl that has to let everyone know that they like the song playing and there age ?
oh thanks god thank you irrrlsilent ich searched this song for a long time i first heard it at a disco in a remix i went to the dj and asked him he said sing sing sing i was a little confused and told him that ist benny goodman he looked at me and said WHO? xD i dont even know why im telling you this , mh well nevermind thx for the vid
Saw Louis Prima Jr. and his own "Witnesses" perform this song on December 8 at the Fremont Street Experience. It was in honor of his dad's 100th birthday (RIP Louis - born on 12/7/1910). Anyway, they did a great job on this one. One of my favorites - and I guess a lot of people don't realize that Louis Prima wrote this one (even though Benny Goodman had the big hit with it!) Thanks for posting!!
Louis Prima was amazing. He's just made songs that make you laugh. He along with Dizzy Gillespie and Louis Armstrong in a way wanted to make the world laugh. Prima was actually good friend of Louis Armstrong BTW. I could figure out in his later stuff he got tired because he was ill. Prima actually did live a good life. Boy I wish music was like this today. Guys I wish Justin Bieber could just leave the world. Look at what he has done to music today along with Lady Gaga, Ke$ha and Katy Perry.
@jazzalex22 You should check out Gabby Young & Other Animals. I know for a fact they definitely channel the Louis Prima love for music which lifts you.
@jazzalex22 Yet again though all music should be praised because somebody truely put their life and time into it. That doesn;t mean that you can't like it though
@jazzalex22 it's quite stupid blaming justin bieber,lady gaga,kesha and katy perry.they wouldn't be so REVELANT in music industry if they didn't MILLIONS OF FANS BUYING THEIR DAMNED SONGS AND ALBUMS.now leave the artists alone and blame fans that are selling out their concerts.am so sick of you people whining.go and get your own contract and start singing.
