  • You know she got a real hippopotamus for Christmas.

  • Wow... I always assumed this was an adult trying, badly, to sound like a child. But I was looking it up and it says that Gayla Peevey was only 10 when she performed this??? It sounds like a 40-year-old trying to sound nasally and cute!

  • @mimmar3891 Yes, when I first heard it, I thought it was an adult singer, trying to sound like a child. Her voice is very strong for a child!

  • I used to think this song was cute, then I found out how many people hippopotamuses kill each year.

  • Her voice freaked me out the first time I heard this song! But I oddly like it now...

  • hippos kill more people in africa each year than crocs or lions do.

    does she really want a 2 ton crazy mean monster with a bunch of teeth the size of toilet paper tubes?

  • @mediamaterialguru No but the Oklahoma City Zoo did. So in 1953 they got this girl, Gayla Peevey, to sing this song. People made donations, and by Christmas time, we got our first hippo named Matilda.

  • @mediamaterialguru But hippopotamuses like her, too.

  • @mediamaterialguru Don't Go Dissing Hippos! They are Awesome :) GO HIPPOS!

  • @mediamaterialguru obviously not...... it's the companies she work for wants it

  • @mediamaterialguru Yes, Yes, she does.

  • Favorite Christmas song ever!

  • Rhinoceroses.

  • Santa must have thought "WTF!" at the request.

  • I have this record, but it's not sung by Gayla. The singer does capture the bounciness tho ! I also shake my head at the very absurdity of this most inappropiate choice for a pet !

  • 0:42 -I've seen signs like this.
