A Frog he would a-Wooing Go (1883)

[SnIIpzDesigns]

I came here because my dad reminded me how he sat through this song for hours on end but I loved it so I thought I would watch it now its such a long time.

You have no idea what a treasure this is for someone who is collecting frogs.

Thanks for your "contribution"

[CRZYMC5]

isnt it creepy? I mean, its sorta about dying animals, isnt it?

[tedhuntington]

I wonder if this has to do with remote neuron reading and writing- like Galvani's frog and the way those who tell are labeled "rats" - how the excluded can't get any dates.

@tedhuntington

"You are probably one of two people, either you already know all about neuron reading and writing, or you know absolutely nothing about neuron reading and writing. If you don't see a video menu in front of your eyes right now, then you are in the "know nothing about neuron reading and writing group" and you are being excluded from receiving this simple technology interface and abused by those who control neuron reading and writing."

@gerdenshed

thanks Mark

It's amazing - for example that four years after this song was created William Crookes spoke publicly about the possibility of using x-rays to communicate, for example, thought-audio, wirelessly direct-to-brain. It sounds crazy, but yet, when one thinks about it, it would seem more convenient not to have to wear headphones, for example to listen to music.

Great - this doesn't have all the words, but still I love this version

[SteveGD2009]

Thanks for posting this. Excellent illustrations and beautifully performed too. Did I miss it or is there no reference to the names of the performers?

Hi Gerdenshed, I have been talking to a friend about this song. do you know if the Barron Knights did their 'own' version

[stampgirl1993]

We are reading Reen-Reen-Reeny-Croak Frog from 1833 and this is a perfect musical piece to accompany our literature. Thank you--the illustrations are delightful!
