  • For some reason, just the same as when I was a child... this song still brings tears to my eyes. ha #Magical

  • What I get from this song is that everyone deserves has a chance of happiness.

  • If i ever win the lottery or build a business that makes me wealthy, im going to skip down the street happy as can be, shaking peoples hands and singing this out loud!!!

  • @47midnight Hell I'm just going to do it for the fun of it!! Take a piece of foil spray paint it gold and just do it!!

  • you guys are idiots. just because tim burton made one or two good movies, people think they are huge fans and everything he makes will be amazing. his version ruined the movie and definately the book. i hate you fake people god dammit

  • Roald Dahl actually saw this version, and absolutely hated it. His surviving family saw Burtons, and said that if he had seen it, he would have loved it.

  • @DuIstalri it's probably because this movie ended up telling his story better.

  • I've got a golden Ticket!! :D

  • Tim Burton captured the creepiness of Wonka and the factory/empire/mogul mindset, and I loved that he saw Wonka as a cross between Anna Wintour and and a completely bleached and tweeked Michael Jackson, but still... this is the one. Cheap effects, amateur child actors, and all... this is the one.

  • goosebumps!! beautiful, innocent, legendary song :))

  • Can anybody give me the lyrics to the Buffalo Wild Wings parody that's been playing on the radio, as of late?; It's called 'We're Going Table-Gating' instead of 'I've Got A Golden Ticket' & I've been looking for a recording/the lyrics for so long, it's starting to drive me nuts.

  • @tthomaselli2 Ready? Here we go! ... So there is this really cool place Where you can pour cold bear down your face And scarf some wings And watch football On flat screens eight miles tall! 'Cause we're going table gating A place where we can watch football all day long We're going table gating All! Day! Long" Whew! That was fun!
  • @acm58

    Thanks.; Where'd you find that?

  • @tthomaselli2 I've heard that commercial so many times, that was from memory :-/

  • 4 people didn't get Golden Tickets

  • If I ever....ever get picked for the Old Republic beta..this is the song that I would play....

  • *looks around* must find way to get band to play this... (chorus can come to >.>)

  • Amazing song :D

  • I really love this song and this movie. It captured a sense of magic, wonder and happyness that no other movie ever could. It's always cheerful to listen to no matter how many I do. The soundtracks to movies like this are why I play an instrument. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go play this at a concert.

  • ;) Praise the Lord for giving us great things like these

  • It seems most people like the Tim Burton version because of Johnny Depp. Fangirls everywhere. >_> Tim Burton is great, but his movie wasn't nearly as inspiring and heartlifting as this one. Sometimes, when I have a bad day, I play my DVD of it and skip to 'Cheer Up Charlie', but if it's a good day, I play this song. You can't do that with Tim's version. ^_^ Great song, great quality, great movie. :D

  • Comment removed

  • It would have been amusing if he'd started singing this after Charlie tried to cheer him up by lying about the ticket at the beginning of the movie.

  • PRAAA! PRAAA! THIS IS SO GANNNGGSSTAAA!!!!!!!!

  • apparently slugworth has disliked this video 4 times!

  • I love this song. Thanks man.

  • Charlie really can't sing.

  • 1:34, "it came charlie!" sounds like he's blowing a load, lol.

  • @jsc20082 he said the cane but that was pretty hilarious XD

  • If I got a Iron Maiden ticket I'll will be singing this song

  • I sang this when Y2K didn't happen.

  • this song never gets old. it like the part when it says " 'Cause I'd have said It couldn't be done....But it can be done. I never dreamed that I would climb over the moon in ecstasy, but nevertheless, it's there that I'm shortly about to be." it sounds as if someone has realized their dreams, and it's coming true. like when they thought it wasn't going to happen, and then after a while it is

  • Beautiful. Wonderful. : )

  • Good morning! Look at the sun!

    so lovely!

  • best damn song in the whole movie.

  • I love this song and It's a cute song! =]

  • I remember this song from my childhood, and I remember singing it a lot. Today, I got an A on my first college exam.

    I will be playing this song non-stop.

  • I sang this song to myself on the way home today when I found out my school loans were accepted xD

    SUDDENLY I BEGIN TO SEE A BIT OF GOOD LUCK FOR MEEEEE

    :D

  • love this song! i was awatching the movie on NETFLIX! LOL LOVE IT! AND PURE IMAGINATION! THIS IS MY FAV musical

  • I've Got a Golden Ticke!

  • Whenever I'm sick, I try and find this movie on TV, and this song always makes me feel better!

  • This song is so Disney!

  • Thumbs up if you saw this on swagbucks.

  • Slippers, Charlie!

  • Cartman's version is better

  • @BDolf030 DO NOT SAY THAT!!!

  • Best song from the movie.

  • @CasimusxPrime NO WAY!! pure imagination, all the way.

  • @slymee83 That was my second choice.

  • I like Tim Burton but that version is absolute dog crap compared to the classic.

  • Thanks so much for posting this!!

  • i prefer this one over the johnny depp one. original ones are often imitated but they are never duplicated

  • one of the best musicals of all time

  • Charlie might not be able to sing but it's charming and cute. It doesn't matter if he can. It's like any little kid trying to sing. It makes it a bit real.

    A reason I love older movies and this movie is that the people just look so much more real and down to earth than they do now.

  • i <3 this song

  • <33333 me and matts song

  • I sang this while turning in my tax return. lol

  • i like this song

  • Love this film, but my God, Charlie really cannot sing.

  • you're right, but Grandpa Joe is actually pretty good.

  • did anyone else notice that during the begining of the movie at the candy place like after they had their drinks, the "candykeep" i guess you could call him hit some little girl in the chin with a door? lol

  • I can't believe they took this out of the Burton version.

  • What I cannot believe is they actually made the burton version

  • @BigEagles33

    I KNOW!!! D: I don't like most of the new songs! Only one I like is "Willy Wonka The Amazing Chocolateer". I mean, I LOVE Tim Burton and Helena Carter and Johnny Depp the most in the movie business (other than Disney, of course!), but the newer Willy Wonka movie could have better songs, nay... If they would have just re-did THESE ORIGINALS, it would RULE.

  • I've got a Golden Ticket for April 2010!! WOO HOO!!!

  • cuz i've got a golden ticket! lol

  • that scene makes me cry. don't know why

  • lo. maybe because he rubs it in the other old peoples' faces? lol. regardless, i love this movie

  • It's a well-written, well-performed, beautiful song. That's why.  :)

  • So funny when they use this music clip in the documentary film "Sicko" :)

  • does cartman sing this song in tourette?

  • Yes, only briefly.

  • hey this is soccer rocks sister brynne8104245 im in the play!

  • 1:35 to 1:41 sounds really wrong lol.

  • hhahahahahaha LOL LMAO ROFL LMAAOTF

  • I special ordered this soundtrack from my local bookstore about 2 weeks ago, and it came in today. I brought it home today. I'm really happy about it!

  • ur mom gots a golden ticket !!

    lol

  • i love how it picks up at 2:45, it makes this song that much better. kudos to the composer for sure!

  • You're right

  • I wanted to post this song because I know how inspiring it is and how much it encourages people through their day. I see how much of a blessing it's been.

    So, please, if you have something nasty to say, say it elsewhere. I don't appreciate it and neither does anyone else.

    Thank you.

    On a side note, I'll be looking for some soundtracks this weekend...Any suggestions? I'll take them into consideration.

  • This song is great,thanks a lot for posting it.

  • @ATasteofMusic The beat of this song is so nostalgic and bring smile to my face always! (22,listen to Classic Rock, Death Metal, Hip Hop, Rap Metal, Country, Jazz, everthing.... .save for rap XD)

  • so you looked it up just to diss it?

    fail

  • I'm still waiting for my Golden Ticket. One Day it will come.

  • i got my golden ticket today at school..at lunch... coldplay... front and center weeee!!

  • I love this song...the old version is the best :D thx for posting the song

  • Thank you so much for posting this very high quality audio version of this wonderful somg..it even sounds good on my tinny notebook speakers...

    I used to listen to this song a lot as a "yoof" in London, and I was always inspired by the message.......used to sing it when things weren't going quite right......

    It must have helped a little......I grew up to be a research chemist ;) (and I;m STILL listening to it!)

  • Your welcome. Always glad to upload something encouraging.

  • Goodness... this song is wonderful, but man - I literally got a lump in my throat when I read districtline's comment about growing up to become something significant. Great song ... great comment.

  • Thank you, that's very kind!

  • @districtline i second that motion. this IS high quality audio. thanks. sounds great through my DR. DRE headphones :D

  • I played Grandpa Joe in a play, and sounded EXACTLY like this.

  • my 4 year old sings this song incredible! I will never hear this song without a smile on my face

  • the remake is edward scissorhands running a chocolate factory.

  • In one part Charlie was waaay off key.

    But I love this song anyway ;)

  • I never realized Jack Albertson had such a nice singing voice. This is one of my favorite songs in the whole movie. It's so inspirational.

  • my favorite 1971 film song

  • i luv this movie! haven't seen the johnny depp one!

  • you will be disappointed if you watch that movie. Jonny Depp acts like a gay

  • I've got a golden ticket to the Obama inauguration this Tuesday!

  • charlie is so off key on the last note. thats all.

  • Hell yeah he is.

  • haha it really does hurt my ears

  • Jonny Depp could never replace Gene Wilder! No one could

  • AGREED.

  • i agree. but in all fairness, Johnny Depp wasn't trying to replace him. when you look at the new film and the old one, you really have to look at them as two completely different movies. but i still agree. Gene Wilder was absolutely perfect. :)

  • Johnny was an ass *sorry for language*

  • @friedrichwilly I'm glad, if they kept it in, they probly would have ruined it

  • My favorite song in the whole movie; all of the songs were good though, but this one was my favorite.

  • i like this song

  • What a great song and great job by a great actor of our time Jack Albertson.

  • Always a joy to hear such wonderful comments from you folks! You'll soon hear more music on my site. I'm uploading Josh Groban's Noel soundtrack at the moment for Christmas.

  • Lol at the end when the little boy can't sing so high! Great vid othervise :P

  • I love how you can actually feel how this song made Grandpa Joe feel ten years younger!!!

  • i know, strange huh? who'd a guessed??

  • Thank you.

  • Its wonderfull isn't it? :D

  • This song always puts a spring in my step.

  • this song was in my winterguard show last season we got second in the state! (:
