Bye Bye Birdie (1963 movie) - Telephone Hour

[Redheadeddude41]

No one cares if your school is doing this. Every school does this.

[ILoveSnowballTheBird]

my school is doing this number in our play... my brother is playing Harvey Johnson XD

[infestation20]

they made this into a play at school... i want my 2 hours of life back

[twilightsinger916]

My theater group is doing this....I'm Alice. XD

[Catella888]

Pinned means officially dating

[GodsMessanger1]

I'm guessing "pinned" means married...or something like that.

[whatuphowslife]

i really want a modern version for the people who do't know what "pinned" means and update everything a little

[TheMusicsinger14]

My Choir is doing this song and this helps me out a lot! Yay for being Penelope! :D

[daggerman898]

WTF is up with the fuckin woodpecker

[XxsHeLbY97xX]

man i wish rumours got spread as delighfully charming in real life

[dramatime23]

lolz i'm playing Penelope ann!

[slytherinrocks1231]

And this is exactly how rumors get spread

[ErnestProud2BeAlbo]

We're doing this in my school and i'm Harvey Johnson :D

[theelementofweird]

whoa, cell phones where sooo bulky then...and so was the hair styles.

[quangtong]

1:52 FIRST CELL PHONE!! LOL

[zamcpheron]

Im playing harvey johnson! soooo fun

[hatmagician101]

My school is doing this musical this year.



[gallantrycross]

This is a particular type of musical that involves white culture and values. It's a terrific musical because it's about the great American middle class when people were forging ahead. This "retro-segregated" concept has nothing to do with the musical.

[waprob]

00:44

[Happymystery12]

lol we did this song for choir and Mr. B, out accompanist, played as Harvey Johnson XD

[LegoBrickDude2000]

this doesn't sound like the movie. too fast

[serenity6831]

Hav I heard what?

[mootje890]

I prefer the family guy version of this song

[TheFantageGurls]

i love harvey johnson!

[chogak]

there is not a single black person in this video

[BeautifullyTragicxx]

@chogak Well, it takes place in the 50's where everything was segregated

[shorts]

@chogak maybe they didn't like black people ..

[chr4522]

Teenagers haven't changed, except now they do this silently through texting and Facebook.

[rafie121]

HOLY SHIZ IZ BE YOGI BEAR at 29 secs

[mcrlover2828]

What the hell is getting pinned?

[ColorguardH]

@mcrlover2828 its like the relationship becoming offical. like when a boy gives you a hoody they give her a pin. i did this musical like 3 years ago and they explained it.

[tragicdeceit]

This shit is like a bad car wreck to me.

[MrBaumer8993]

The movie is the best version!

[Rollman1]

Dident that School in Seetapple have any Black students ? Guess not Boy cut

the Mcafee Fertilizer Company

[Rollman1]

At 0:29  You can see an album Yogi Bear on the cover . I did not know he was a Rockin Roll star What if he showed up at Sweetapple to kiss Kim

[PinoyNikoT]

In my school were doing this play

[majormusicmajor]

[CountryGirl0137]

This is so cheesy, it's good. Haha!

[DarkJewel191]

[Awesomewill117]

i'm in the orchestra pit. hell yeah for not contributing anything towards this play!

[piidoe]

I love the car scene!

[Red41658]

2:28-2:49 Funny dancing!

[doggy10101]

lol. those scenes were so random :P

[TheEnglandbear]

Harvey Johnson is a pimp!

[JubalCalif]

@TheEnglandbear

HA! I think he's just a normal red blooded Amercan boy wanting his fair share of hair pie...or bearded clam....or whatever you wanna call it !!! :-)

[randomretardedpeanut]

=-= i have to play the part of harvey and the mayor and reporter 1

[ryukXsayu27]

Did anyone else see Taylor Swift at 1:07?

[MannyShmexy]

Rofl! Phones everywhere!!!!

[kibafan24]

[Rollman1]

@kibafan24 Ill bet Harvy got a lot of weggies in school and got shaken for his lunch mony

[1117989]

Wow... Kim and Hugo are popular...

[mgcat989]

What ever did we do before cell phones?

[trojangirl246]

@mgcat989 this apparently

[bubblyblondie101]

i love this musical

[StudebakerHawk57]

Brother, how I HATE this movie. Yesh!

[camellelover]

hahahahahah green one is humping the stairs

[hplova27]

my schools doing this for the school production this year... im harvey johnson :D

[DepressedSoldier]

@hplova27 I did that for my freshman year. I was in the band pit. Oh god... you will get that song STUCK in your head [well, the rest of them too]. Just please, promise me you'll have the girls at the beginning of this song use nasally voices. Please. Our singers didn't and it pretty much made the song boring. They were all prissy little girls who didn't want to do things right, just 'be pretty'.

[Childofstorms]

I remember being in this play as the mayor's wife XD This was so much fun to do!

[The54catwoman]

wouldn't penelope be electrified?

[chickenelmer]

Sycamore's play was way better GO AVES!!!!!!

[TheCheesehead0]

AHHHHH THIS IS SO FUNNY!!!

[yahmeenia]

Bird is the word!

[singingbaby35]

why would she have a phone in the bath tub

[TheChuckles210]

Whats the word? surfin bird!

xD

[0singingstar0]

"Hello Mr. Henkel this is Harvey Johnson can I (CRACK) talk to Penelope Ann?" best part ever.

[hplova27]

@0singingstar0 i was harvey in the production i just did

[samroxsox12]

@0singingstar0 very true... his voice cracked 3 times lol! (i think...)

[firedrake300]

What's pinned mean anyway? Is it sex, or something to do with an actual pin?

[tokyogirl79]

@firedrake300 It's basically the same thing as giving someone your class ring. The pin is usually something the boys would get through a sport of some sort of club- an actual pin the girl could display on her clothing. It would show that the two were serious about each other and that the girl is "taken" or as taken as someone in high school can be! ;)

[firedrake300]

@tokyogirl79 All right then, thanks.

[cheerGgirl]

original version of HSM.hahaha!

[AmzyXD]

harvey johnson is the maaaan.

[BackstageGunslinger]

I'm amused by the use of a phone in the car. Which is utterly ridiculous and implausible.

[camicuti97]

@BackstageGunslinger How about using phones in the shower? Won't they get electrocuted?

[rhaligrace]

@BackstageGunslinger actually before cellphones they had phone's made specifically for car useage. They were rare and people didn't tend to like them that much, but they did exist.

[NewAKS86]

lol freakin' nalts sends us crazy shit

[BuddhaCharlie]

Nalts sent me here

[Casey5693]

It's like my Mom says. The more things change the more they stay the same. LOL.

[RollOnToVictory]

Harvey Johnson FTW!!!

[etbella3]

There are no Jews or Black People in this movie. Just like The Andy Griffith Show -- Mayberry had no Jews, No Blacks and No Crime. Jiminy Cricket!

[essested]

@etbella3 So your implying that Jewish and Black people are the reason for crime in society? You're a fucking retard.

[NicoleMarieButterfly]

@etbella3 Why did Mayberry need Andy Griffith to be sheriff then?

[IRONHIDE434]

peter iiiiiiiss slow!

[heliumholiday]

If ya gotta go, that's the way to go!

[Pattifish]

This is a real blast from the past. I saw this at Radio City Music Hall in the 7th grade.

Paul Lynn was hilarious in this movie.

Nice to see Ann Margaret again so well preserved in Grumpy Old men.

[canadiandonut567]

My school is doing this for our jr. Thespian competition & I'm gonna play Alice :)

[APolaris]

[marrakinz]

@APolaris I think it's the stair rail. Still, I agree, it's REALLY wrong!!!

[bridget117]

[loocee95]

@loocee95

[mrpuppiedawgz]

@JudgeMEGreat i got called back 4 alice 2 very scary :)

[westsidestory97]

"He's in love with Kim, Kim's in love with him!" <3

[loocee95]

Love the girl in green bending over the bed........Harvey is a real man....Notice the ladies in various poses....Got to play piano for this one in NYC in the early 70's...Love the "well oh well do tell" part....great stuff..

This flopped really bad on Broadway 2010....Kids today just don't get it...

The fact that the people couldn't act or sing didn't help (I saw the preview in Chicago)...Sucked real bad.... Now, the real question is what is a "loop the loop".....

Anyone?

[Josandoro26]

We did this on our campus last year. It tired out amazing. I was running all the sound equipment including mikes. Definitely fun for a musical

[kibbeychris]

I get to play Harvey in our school musical! I'm still working on the voice craking thing . . .

[DarkPeachTree]

Is it just me or does the woman in the red shirt look like Ginnifer Goodwin?

[TheFlyingSeal]

We were watching this in Musical Theater class to see how the preformance is like. And during 1:56, a kid name Spencer (doing Albert) said:

"I like this movie!"

[singlaprety12]

I'm aditioning for a part tommorow who should I do

[Metalheadbanger094]

@singlaprety12 hugo

[uszoninyc]

Poor (audio) quality. Couldn't you please upload a cleaner version? Otherwise, thanks.

[chucknorrisbro]

love it

[MoneyPlus2000]

I hate to admit it but I saw Bye Bye Birdie in the movies (about 100 years ago).

Best Wishes,

Carl Willoughby

[lilman83]

i was conrad

[DALEK86]

i actally like the family guy version better o.o

[IRONHIDE434]

did the whole town really know and needed to care about a couple going out?

[Mrster]

0:24 Am I the only one with the dirty mind?

[13fullmoons]

@Mrster no i cought it 2 + my school is doing this 4 preforming art's and 1 of the parts is "dont 4get 2 wear ur rubbers" o.o ( im adutioning 4 ursula lolz =) )

[KayDaySilver]

@Mrster Yes.

[TheRandomTandemz]

my drama teacher wants me to play birdie

[chockgirl1239]

My school is doing this musical, but i can't audition because they say my grade level can't :P

[KrIsZieHaSfUn]

@chockgirl1239 my skol did this show last yr but they said only 7 and 8 graders can audition but now im going to 7 and i can audition for plays now!! im happy

[psychofreak87]

That part with the woodpecker... random as

[glittersparkks]

harvey johnson, one hunky boy. riiiiiight hahaha

[gcxplaya85]

i found this because of family guy lol

[mrpuppiedawgz]

@gcxplaya85 ik i love how family guy does these kind of musicals so more people will know about them!!!! :D

<3 bye bye birdie

[IwillKillYourCereal]

wow.....just......wow.....

If my friend called me up and said "OMG did you hear that kim and hugo are going out?!" I would be like "Okay then.....nice for them.....Did you seriously call me up just for that?"

lol

[chogak]

haha are there any non-white people in this entire film? just asking...

[latestranger]

@chogak There are actually! It's a major thing that Conrad Birdie's manager's secretary/girlfriend is Hispanic, and his overbearing mom is sooooper racist. And then in the end they get married and the mom's not quite so bad.

[kari921333]

i was in this play

[ManiactheLunatic]

If they redid this movie now, this whole scene would be obsolete with the incredibly new technology known as the 'text message'.

"Hugo pinned Kim!"

"Orly?" -forward-

[Rollman1]

At 0:28 You can see a album with Yogi Bear I dident know i was a rock star to

what if he came to Sweetappel to give Kim one last kiss before Ranger Smiff comes to lock him up. You got to be a Bear You want to be a Bear, I got a lot of baskets to steal BY BY YOGI THE RANGERS GOT YOU NOW

[ParryxPaige]

Harvey Johnson <3

[silenthillmaster755]

our camp director comapres the ending of the song to the nuclear holocaust. XD

[imajika2]

Harvey is such a stud!

[JubalCalif]

@imajika2

I second that emotion! Still waters run deep as they say...Harvey probably had "hidden charms" that would have made the cute lil' chickaroonis in Sweet Apple, Ohio swoon if they'd only give him a chance! :)

[disneyfan1326]

my school did this and me and some other girls got cut out of this song because "there wasnt enough room on the stage to do the dance" i was sooo mad this is the best song in the movie!

[bleach1804]

UHHHH-HUHHHH.
