Father Abraham & The Smurfs Pinoccio In Smurfland 1978 Decca

[TimTamTtime]

Finally, after hearing this song for the first time since when I was little, I am reassured that I am not crazy and making up random songs when I start singing "Pinocchio, Pinocchio!" That's all I could remember.

Oh my god I love this!!! I remember being about 6 years old and my dad giving me an old record player and a box of records, i found this among them..... I drove my parents nuts playing this and zippity day on the other side..... awww brings back so many memories!!!

Perhaps the most boring of the Smurf songs.

"that was a beutiful story" i suppose it was nice, but i dont really like stories" "oh you dont like ANYTHING!"

[gavdoff]

Grumpy never did :S

[nicolaj0154]

in my country is that song known as "astrosmølfen".

[gavdoff]

thats a quality name for it :)

might have to use that for one of my next tunes :)

[mark0776829]

Does anyone know why Pinoccio was In Smurfland?

pinoccio is a separate character from story books that are NOTHING to do with smurfs- i dont understand why his character was part of the smurfs?

its like mixing the teletubbies with teenage mutant turtles- they are all separate characters.

[gavdoff]

dunno, but i wanna see the teenage mutant ninja teletubbies, class LOL

[pedrini8]

Of course - but they can visit each other.

[gavdoff]

True, True :)

[creepycritters]

mabey its becaues both smurfs and pinoccio are story characters

[gavdoff]

Who knows, It seemed to work back then, guess it was a way to introduce chidren who liked the smurfs to another but moar older kids story/fairytale.

Most probably was a marketing decision, Its not the first time something has crossed over and certainly wont be the last :)

That said I prefer/like to think your reasoning is true and all toon chars etc live in a world that you can get to via a big tunnel into the hollywood hills :D

[gavdoff]

class, will add more as i come across them.

btw if you strangle a smurf wonder what colour it would turn? LOL

[mark0776829]

YES YES i love this one best .

[croesrob]

YES!

[gavdoff]

hehe, hope thats yes i a good sense :)
