[allendale1962]

@minitacomanofdoom Thank you.

[clockguy2]

One person expected a dancing frog to be playing this.

[preppychrisbou]

I first heard this from the movie Spaceballs.

[ilovelink15]

[Darkunito69]

[anotherbeatlefreak]

Was it hard to learn? :O

[jlh2667]

I first heard this from a cartoon with a singing frog and a construction worker.

[allendale1962]

@jlh2667 LOL...so did I!

[jlh2667]

I love this piece and the song

[allendale1962]

[BRACOGAVRAN]

nice song,bravo

[allendale1962]

@BRACOGAVRAN Thanks.

[7biwr]

Played in true ragtime fashion. It was written in 1899 though. Very well played

[allendale1962]

@7biwr thank you.

[anotherbeatlefreak]

@7biwr

I thought it was written in the 20's era, too.

I think it's just the style. (:

[Hyminym]

Nice job man

[allendale1962]

@Hyminym Thanks.

[dusty10456]

This is good but too camp and gay for the style of this song, it doesn't do it justice, less of the trilling please, it was never written like that!!

[allendale1962]

@dusty10456 Sorry you didn't like it, but you seem to be out-numbered here! LOL

[bakelitetim]

@allendale1962 Firstly, I think that was very good, Mr Dale. Secondly, and this is directed to @dusty10456 I would like to see yo do better.

[dusty10456]

@bakelitetim I think you mean hear don't you?

As you grow up you will realise that constructive criticism is acceptable to most people, Mr Dale replied to me that I am outnumbered, correctly so, but I would still love to hear him play it without the twiddly bits!

[Chocothnda]

*brain melts*

I... there are no words in my vocabulary I can use to describe how amazing this is.

[allendale1962]

@Chocothnda LOL... thanks.

[dorkyforever]

Man, this brings me back to my childhood! Love it! C:

[allendale1962]

@dorkyforever Thank you.

[roguepenguin1994]

FOR ALL PEOPLE UNSURE OF THE SONGS ORIGINS! HERE THEY ARE!

The song was originally written in 1899 by Joseph E. Howard and Ida Emerson. It was then in the same year recorded by Arthur Collins.

The original recording

watch?v=OOo-zKk0x4Q

[allendale1962]

@roguepenguin1994 Thanks for the up-dated info.

[Nen783]

This is Spectacular, but the song is from 1899 not the twenties..

[allendale1962]

@Nen783 Thank you for the new information!

[ChikenMuffinz]

Does anyone know who sings the song? Cause I remember watching the frog singing the song when I was younger....xD

But I'm pretty sure a frog didn't record this.

[allendale1962]

@ChikenMuffinz I am not 100% sure ,but I thnk Al Jolson sang it in the Bugs Bunny Cartoons.

[oldmusic55]

@ChikenMuffinz Bill Roberts sang it for the original 1955 cartoon

[buvianna]

Fantatisc !!

[Britishfilms101]

This is AMAZING! I love listening to this!

[allendale1962]

@Britishfilms101 Thanks.

[alnator]

Hello, Allen, is it possible I could get an audio recording of this piece?

[allendale1962]

@alnator Not from me. Sorry.

[APRICOTSMOOTHIE]

You are God

[allendale1962]

@APRICOTSMOOTHIE No I am NOT!!

[APRICOTSMOOTHIE]

@allendale1962 Well, either way, I really really liked this piece (:

[chrisisaboss707]

good lord! how long have you been playing piano? ive wanted to play for as long as i can remember, and even own a piano, but i've yet to get around to taking lessons. your amazing!

[allendale1962]

Thanks.

[Gianluke01]

i love your performance . . . . i like to have a sheet music . . . . 5 stars

[allendale1962]

Thanks. I have no sheet music. Sorry.

[TheMcbro]

are you gay?

[allendale1962]

Did you read my profile page?

[TheMcbro]

Oh, just did. Wasn't trying to be offensive, just thought it was a possibility. Good luck finding a long term relationship. You are amazing at piano.

[allendale1962]

Thanks and God Bless. I probably won't have another relationship at my old age anyhow.

[templarus1000]

clap clap clap...

[allendale1962]

Thanks.

[AgentNapkin]

Wow, you're amazing.  That looks fun to play, and you play it well!

[allendale1962]

Thanks.

[luke2409]

i think, your'e the best piano player I ever seen in my live!

[allendale1962]

I am not the best, but I sure have a great time!

[ABenzor1]

download the program Music Notes player, and the REAL Hello Ma Baby will be on there

[allendale1962]

This IS the REAL Hello Ma Baby ,you moron.

[ABenzor1]

OK, then why don't you play I Wander as I Wander then.

[allendale1962]

I WOULD play it IF I knew the whole song thru. You are being VERY BRAZEN in your atenpts to down me. There is a BIG difference between a HUMAN BEING and a MIDI player Mechanism!

[ABenzor1]

not trying to down you.i work w/my church on the piano.(not an organ)

i was hoping for help on it

[carpengt123]

I keep waiting for the frog to come out

[allendale1962]

LOL... times is hard here in Mt. Carmel, IL. I had to eat the poor little feller!

[Doudum]

he's good

[allendale1962]

Thank you!

[coventrygardens]

that's great. i like it when music is played quickly like that when there is no singing. when someone is singing during a piece of music, i like to have a slower playing.

[allendale1962]

O.K.

[New023]

whoa, that is insane!

[allendale1962]

BUAAAAHHHH ha ha ha!!!!!

[vladislav3]

Awesome playing!

[allendale1962]

thanks.

[gheemaster]

If I had to take a guess, I'd say this is your own original arrangement, yes? Either way, you've got some amazing riffs there.

[allendale1962]

thanks.

[virtualbeck]

Allen, your playing is simply mesmerizing! I wish more people could hear this! Great and keep playing!

[allendale1962]

thanks

[Gianluke01]

[allendale1962]

Thanks

[perfectionsalon]

Because my Grandma has a really old sheet music of it, and its dated from 1899

[Shangas]

[Dawnmariegrasso]

[allendale1962]

Who is Tammy Grimes?

[Gianluke01]

[Michealjackson10able]

[allendale1962]

No Alicia Keys song yet... But I will try and learn someday.

[perfectionsalon]

really good job!

The piano playing was absolutely PERFECT!!! (as you probably already know)

The only thing was that it was actually from 1899, but how were you supposed to know that, y'know? :)

[allendale1962]

Thanks.

[allthatisx]

You are incredible!! Thanks for posting

[allendale1962]

Thanks

[Gianluke01]

Bellissima! In English: Wonderful!

[allendale1962]

thanks!

[t00kig]

Amazing :)

[allendale1962]

thanks

[dubldeka]

Your memory version follows the original score perfectly.

This was first put out on Edison disk in 1899. sung by Arthur Collins.

An important milestone in music.

Singing about telphone use on the new media of recorded sound was a very hi tech and exiting sound for the promising new century.

Cars planes and radio shows were still dreams when this song was born.

You cought the spirit in your rendition.

Well played.

[allendale1962]

Thanks

[kyrephex]

Thanks so much for sharing this! I have always loved this song (Thanks to the Frog on Bugs Bunny) and I've thoroughly enjoyed listening to you play. Great Performance, looking forward to more!

[allendale1962]

Thank you! And FROGGIE says Thanks and listen to DOWN YONDER!!

[cbmhayes]

excellent!

[allendale1962]

thanks

[OscillatingEthmoid]

Bloody Brilliant! I adore ragtime piano but it seems to me like very few people play in that style anymore. Finding this video--nay, finding your channel--is like striking YouTube gold for me.

I sing in a barbershop quartet and this style is at the heart of many of our most valued arrangements. Incidentally, listening to it tends greatly inspires me.

[allendale1962]

Thank you.

[MacGirvan]

Cool!

[allendale1962]

thanks

[Caddyjay]

I love that song. Great playing!

[allendale1962]

[allendale1962]

thanks

[badgermost]

LOL you mean that... besides playin so amazingly you also made the arrangement?

[allendale1962]

yes.

[Gianluke01]

really?? wow!! your arrangement is the best! Are you a pianist or a composer?

[allendale1962]

I am a pianist that happens to magically write a musical score in my headf. Now, nuf said!!!

[Gianluke01]

hello, i'm italian and i don' t speak english very good, but where do you have found the sheet music of this song? it is very good!

[allendale1962]

I am sorry, But I don't read Sheet Music. I make my own arrangements up as I go along.

[Gianluke01]

Very good job man!!!

[allendale1962]
