Animaniacs - Ballad of Magellan

[TallBlueyFairy]

man i miss Animaniacs so much! stupid new cartoons just aren't as good as they used to be.

[DrSpikeSpiegel]

If anyone's interested, the melody for this is from the song "Get Along Little Dogies" This song is so great that I thought you should know the origin.

[shamii1]

Did Jacco even go through all of the words of the English Langauge? We'll never know :c

[AngelOfLight50]

@shamii1 Jacco? You mean Yakko?

[shamii1]

@AngelOfLight50 same same >.>

but yeah I think I meant Yakko.

[AngelOfLight50]

@shamii1 Ah. Yes, he did. But we only see a few letters done, because Animaniacs is a troll like that.

[gank771]

upon reading the responses to this video, I'm quite shocked. So much negativity towards a cartoon with a little bit of historical inaccuracy. To be frank, if you want perfect historical accuracy you won't find it in an american cartoon from the 90's... or really any cartoon. If you are wanting to read up history, read a book on the subject instead of looking up a cartoon then criticize it because it isn't wholly true. And if you are able to point out the mistakes, you shouldn't be on here anyhow

[xDarkTrinityx]

One of my favorite Animaniacs songs. Ahhhh, good childhood memories :)

[djpx49]

fuck with our ISLAND get ur head cut off!

[MikeDelcanho]

[miyazaki4ever]

[sabdelro]

[captainjep]

11 people also never found the East Indies

[jjqueiros]

@captainjep 1000000000 people think dislike jokes are getting really old.

[hopefaith2]

Writing a five page paper about how television positively affect children, and this is my first example. :D

[zapernet13]

Magellen said ,"What?" and got hit by a spear.....lol

[UltimateMastodon]

DIVINE TIMING.

I watched this video yesterday, and thought "Huh, it sure would be cool to get to watch these in Western Civ.

Today, WE WATCHED THIS IN WESTERN CIV!

[humby123]

Maybe it's just me but I feel the animation took a huge decline in quality towards the later seasons. Perhaps they had budget issues.

[GamesMaster2468]

Hi Mr. Scharfe!!!

[farawayfromlife95]

This is so catchy lol

[Andromedos]

Magellan: "Why did I hire these three as my only crew...?"

[ashlywat]

heheheheheheh watched this is S.S. yay!

[Consequator]

This song needs to be released on blue-ray.

[NikoNash]

This song has been stuck in my head over literally a decade!

[Manigran]

I love this. It's amazing.

[rakshasdragon]

lolz i'm thinking Zoro and Ryouga

[Mdemons12]

Look Adam, now we have homework!

[torresn89]

this song is really catchy!

[LastLoveHeartbreater]

Hehe. Send this to William Manchester.

[taratazirl]

i watched this in history :)

[MegaSuperAwesome1214]

1:02 I expected someone to cry in agony...

[HonerableRosemary]

Poor Magellan XD

[00Petulia00]

My professor for my class on the age of exploration had us memorize this song for a test.

[elmoloverchanel11]

i saw this in class its so cute

[msinvincible2000]

is it normal for a 30- yeas old woman to love this video, or should I consult a doctor?

[Manigran]

@msinvincible2000 Don't worry about it. Animaniacs is for everyone.

[klkigar]

push 3 wait 1 second and push 3 again

[klkigar]

push 3

[anth0nyislive]

Wish I watched this in social studies :(

[BaseballGeneral]

Lapu-Lapu with just a spear killed him when he had guns and cannons XD FAIL PHILIPPINES DONT MESS WITH US

[ImJinRaziel]

@BaseballGeneral Epic Right?

I'm glad i live here in the PH.

[skydark]

"Recognizing the captain, so many turned upon him that they knocked his helmet off his head twice... A native hurled a bamboo spear into the captain's face, but the latter immediately killed him with his lance, which he left in the native's body. Then, trying to lay hand on sword, he could draw it out but halfway, because he had been wounded in the arm with a bamboo spear. When the natives saw that, they all hurled themselves upon him. "

[skydark]

@skydark One of them wounded him on the left leg with a large cutlass, which resembles a scimitar, only being larger. That caused the captain to fall face downward, when immediately they rushed upon him with iron and bamboo spears and with their cutlasses, until they killed our mirror, our light, our comfort, and our true guide. When they wounded him, he turned back many times to see whether we were all in the boats.

[skydark]

@skydark Thereupon, beholding him dead, we, wounded, retreated, as best we could, to the boats, which were already pulling off.

[Olafolafsons]

Fun and educational

[CutePuppie98]

I love this Song! my history teacher showed this to me !

[animelova4ever1]

@CutePuppie98 mine did to xD i love it

[shimshimi2011]

Our history teacher made us sing that XD

[diechinaboydie]

@shimshimi2011 Teacher of the year

[shimshimi2011]

@diechinaboydie LOL!

[OnlineWarlord890]

Colombus did a better job

[GOTOHELL57331]

@OnlineWarlord890 im sure being incarcerated by the spanish authorities and ending up dirt poor and dying of plague after never finding a better passage to the indies was totally a good job.

[DisneyCharacterLover]

My honors history teacher made us watch this 4 times in one class until we memorized it XD we ended up singing it all together XD

[mondaynightclash]

My history teacher made us watch this

[Superspaceify]

my history teacher showed us this on the smart board

[KatThePuppyGirl]

@Superspaceify well good for him! its a funny entertaining cartoon that kids can learn things that they want to learn. i luv this show!

[Superspaceify]

@KatThePuppyGirl lol i love it too XD

[leerito1]

he did not die immedietly he first christianize the other filipinos and when he visited mactan thats when he was hit by a spear!!!

[Hawkflame]

@leerito1 its been changed to tie in better

[pikminluigifan25]

That's got to suck; having to travel across unknown territories for who knows how long and then die before barely reaching your desired destination.

[TheHeidelbergKid]

@pikminluigifan25 Reminds me of the guy who got lost in the sewers of Paris for weeks and died eleven yards from the exit.

[sirveilsixclaw6claw]

I bet people dislike videos just so they can read all of the "X people disliked this video because of Y" comments.

[TYECOBB1]

these songs could be used for a history class.

[kutekitten6]

@TYECOBB1 my history teacher actually played this to us a few weeks back

[MellyT94]

Well that's a depressing ending. XD

[BlueRoseLeader]

lol

[EnigmaticArsenic]

@killkode345 And do you also have trouble grasping the concept of the world being round? Meaning regardless of where a place is in relation to you (east or west), if you travel long enough in the opposite direction, you'll eventually get there? Also, maybe you and UDonald should brush up on some middle school history to figure out why so many European explorers attempted to reach East Asia by sailing west--and no, it wasn't because they didn't know that China and India (or in this case, the Eas

[killkode345]

"hey i think thats guam." XDDDDDDDD

[pogionfiyah]

Bahahaha! Glad my people ended his journey.

[FroststormRipplepelt]

My history teacher made us sing along to this. xD

[EnigmaticArsenic]

@theUDonald You do understand the world is round, right? Think about it.

[killkode345]

@EnigmaticArsenic he means its call the EAST indes but they sailed WEST

[TheUDonald]

Wait, who the hell sails West to find the East Indies?

[takineko]

@TheUDonald Study history friend.

[ImJinRaziel]

Yay, thank you Magellan for invading my country--Philippines!

Lapu-Lapu killed you immediately!

[StealthMarmot]

@ImJinRaziel Immediately? Bullcrap.

Magellan fought like a champ and had to be surrounded and stabbed and beaten over and over before he died. Guy took a savage beating just to make sure his crew all got to the ship and escaped.

Lived like a fool, but died like a boss.

[ImJinRaziel]

@StealthMarmot Heh, he didn't.

He tried to invade the Philippines and it's because of it's wonders.

[Thoralmir]

@ImJinRaziel Well, he discovered that Kharma can be a real bitch, no didn't he?

[ImJinRaziel]

@Thoralmir Yup, and he is a sucky jealous ass mouth.

[dethklok745]

@ImJinRaziel Shut up ur lucky he even FOUND the Phillippines.

[ImJinRaziel]

@dethklok745 That's why he was looking for it.

HE WAS INVADING. And this video is a lie.

When the Philippines was discovered, it became well known. And well invaded.

Now the spaniards invaded us. Americans got them. Spain + Japan vs America + Phillipines, then we won. Thanks to americans we lived in peace. And the Americans left because of the Mt. Pinatubo explosion. I should be thanking america more. But i wonder why they hate asians?

[dethklok745]

@ImJinRaziel Well, who cares.

[BaseballGeneral]

@ImJinRaziel Magellan was the first person to put the philippines on the map and magellan landed in mactan, limasawa, and cebu he was not invading. on cebu he made the first catholic church in the philippines. After magellans death the spaniards took over until america took control after the spanish-american war. and spain wasnt part of the axis power during WWII. Philippines in military power is strong past and present after the eruption america wanted to come back but they never want the help

[GOTOHELL57331]

@ImJinRaziel thank you for recognising that the Philippines would be WAY better off w/out the europeans bringing pesky technologically advanced peoples in there! why be in an air conditioned room with a computer when you could be hunting komodo dragons?

[RobloxLevelDude]

i watched this is social studies =D

[hiddenmist1396]

@RobloxLevelDude

WORRD RIGHT

[dethklok745]

@RobloxLevelDude Me too! All the students in my class were like ''What is this'' in the beginning until 0:07 started.

[mlcw1218]

me and my friends love this song but people tell us "your to old to watch kids shows heres a text book NOW GO STUDY!" but we say "no thanks well stay how we are and if you EVER put THAT THING in OUR faces EVER again YOU WILL regret it"

[mdilo13167]

This is stuck in my head

[msbloweverythingup]

Hey, That's Argentina!

[MarveledatMarvel]

this one and and "Nations of the World" are my family's favorites because they mention GUAM!!!

[Xenakeyblademaster]

I watched this in my social studies class on Friday and today! :3

[agennettpeachy]

@Xenakeyblademaster lucky! i wish my teachers would show animaniacs videos!! (=

[agennettpeachy]

@Xenakeyblademaster lucky! i wish my teachers would show animaniacs videos!! (=

[TheAlphadog4]

It's kinda hard to jack off to this song

[HollyAngelDreamer]

"I think they're attaaacking!" xDD LOL

[vikwhis11]

Did Magellan really chop down a mast? :/

[CutePuppie98]

My teacher showed us this in History class lol! 

[ahthin]

during school i was learing about this guy, and i started singing, there once was a man his name was maellin lol

[vampyre191]

at least he wasnt hit by a yo-yo. (TRUE FILIPINOS SHOULD UNDERSTAND THIS)

[OddishThing18]

@vampyre191 I'm not Filipino and I get it.

[vampyre191]

@OddishThing18 oh, thats kool :(

[KatThePuppyGirl]

right maggelin dont tear out your hair thats wat happened to dr.otto scratchensniff

[CrustyClown11]

I have a younger cousin doing a report on Magellan. Perhaps I'll show her this

[gloppdarock42]

@monoose35 really? So that's how your viewing streak came under way!

[TrollinFoLife1345]

i have this cd from when i was little

[hansolo235]

Mapquest

[monoose35]

we had to watch this in 8th grade social studies

[LeoniaPotter]

@monoose35 hehe 5th x3

[protoss371]

Lol. Maggelen fail

[skydark]

@protoss371 The mission was successful.

[SilasCilice]

Is it bad that I'm writing a paper in college that happens to mention Magellan and this song is now stuck in my head?

[CherryCurlZ06]

@SilasCilice no..it simply means you appreciate good cartoons! lol

[TeamBangout1]

@SilasCilice nope this is classic stuff to memorize by

[PinoysRule1276]

I love that Lapu Lapu is my anscestor

[NoahesFrio]

It's a shame this great song was uploaded in 240p.

[sabdelro]

Ang tanga ng kanta na to! I swear, I lOVE ITT!!!

[MajBlood]

Magellan died because he got too cocky and bold. Although Magellan has some dickhead traits, he was mostly a good, caring, down to earth man. Certainly no Cortes.

[Kerorofan1990]

Damn, this song is catchy.

[Neridah12]

0:38 he's looking at a map of Wisconsin. =P

[XxPepsiFanGirlxX]

magellan was hit by an arrow!

[pokemonorochi]

@XxPepsiFanGirlxX technically the arrow just wounded him

[4KidsRocks1]

0:47 wakko is drinking GROG!

[PriceRight89]

So many great lines in this song. "Magellan got cranky and chopped down the mast," "Ay-yi-yi-yi! OOPS! Magellan!" "I think they're attackiiiing!" "Magellan said 'what" and was hit by a spear."

[Kinnickfan]

10 people did not find the East Indies.

[1741Andre]

@Kinnickfan 11 did not find the East Indies

[Angelheartmarinas]

hey,that's not how we greeted Magellan in our country we greeted him with coconuts and food like bananas

[ronren234]

actually he was looking for molluccas or now know as molukas in indonesia!

[tomboy0614]

That is just SAD.

[wakkofan123111]

skippy and dot are both played by actors from tiny tunes

[ghost13haunter]

@wakkofan123111 So is Yakko :D

[Mangkukutod]

The early Filipinos didn't look like that. Pigafetta said that they had lots of jewelry and trinkets and that some of them were wearing silk clothes.Those look more like Polynesians.

[FlabbyTheFat]

@Mangkukutod Stop copying me.

[phoenixdragon9]

10 people said "What?" and got hit with spears.

[vampyre191]

HA !! even then filipinos were violent !! PINOY !!!!

[earth1552]

Haha magellan was killed by the natives

[MajBlood]

@earth1552 Nothing to be ashamed about. Natives weren't backwards idiots like Hollywood would have you believe, and Asian natives were more advanced than Native Americans. Also the battle between Magellan and the Filipinos was 30 to 1.

[earth1552]

My favorite part 2:22

[Ozztastic57]

@FlabbyTheFat im pretty shore there werent trees spelling Guam either, but comeon, its Animaniacs

[yessie55]

I once had to do a project in...6th Grade, I think, on Magellan. Man, talk about a let down! I was all interested in learning about "The first man to circumnavigate the globe" and what happens? He didn't even make it! >.> Nice, Magellan...real nice.

On another note, this has got to be my favorite Animaniacs song EVER! They were pretty accurate and this never fails to get stuck in my head at random points in the day.

[femoman]

One of the best cartoons ever. The first show that was fun and educational to kids, but without the kids realising it was educational!

[TheCandymusiclover]

The most educational comedy cartoon ever; i miss The Animaniacs!!! Any1 know if WB released the full show on DVD?

[snakepit000]

@TheCandymusiclover The first 3 seasons are out on dvd.

[TheCandymusiclover]

@snakepit000 Thank You!!! :)

[tubeyoukonto]

Whoopie ti-yi-yo ♥ ^^

[SailorV1234]

a Portuguese sailor living in Spain?

[FlabbyTheFat]

The early Filipinos didn't look like that.Pigafetta said that they had lots of jewelry and trinkets and that some of them were wearing silk clothes.Those look more like Polynesians.

[LB40186]

@FlabbyTheFat Magellan also didn't speak English,a nd I'm pretty surethey didn't sing during the entire journey... anything else you want to criticize a CARTOON for?

[Giondi]

@LB40186 I choose to believe they did sing this song the entire voyage.

[rickface13]

AWESOMEST PART OF THIS IS THAT ITS ALL WHAT WAS DOCUMENTED..SO ITS PRETTY MUCH TRUE..

[MissSoojinx3]

animaniacs = original trolls

[BenjaminWirtz]

This is most historically accurate video I have ever seen. (seriously though it is pretty accurate compared to what passes for educational now a days).

[Iamjustherek]

Their harmony in the chorus was really good! And LOL all of their songs are hilarious!

[chickentastegood9]

is it just me or does yakko look H-O-T in that shirt?

[ThatGamingRedmage]

@chickentastegood9 I guess if your a furry or something?

[OwlCityLuver23]

@chickentastegood9 i think hes more than just hot in that shirt ;D

[numbuh0]

@chickentastegood9 Good night, everybody #LOL

[sethfaustino]

Me and my class were studying about this since we are from the Philippines and laughed at the end

[roguetk421]

I love their jigging about.



[Kishqui]

9 people can't find the east indies :-}

[mangachick724]

@Kishqui They could find them, they're just too lazy to find out where.

[chickentastegood9]

Yakko and Dot look very good as sailors, don't you think?

Wakko reminds me of Mr. Smee from Peter Pan (the Disney cartoon) because of his shirt.

[11ateneo11]

9 people are part of Magellan's crew

[Battybatzgirl]

I had no idea Magellan actually died before he found the Indies! See, I LEARNED something from cartoons!

[RatedRStarr]

Magellan and his crew didn't like this...

[Rotgree]

My Geography class watched this and I thought that it was so cute!

[7disney7]

Magellan said 'what?' and was hit by a spear. lol

[Whitetiger187]

Magellan gps company should use this as their sales jingle :P

[musicbox193]

@Whitetiger187 yeah, good idea

[vampyre191]

@Whitetiger187 we used that to get to the airport and we got lost three times

[SDBPR]

Glory to Lapu-Lapu!!!

[TheLugia702]

"there once was a man" SO SPECIFIC YAKKO

[Vickyvictoria90]

"It's Argentina" and the coming soon --->Evita Hilarious!!!!
