That Haunting Melody - Al Jolson

[DarkLeonUK]

try holding down ALT while liking my comment ;)

[tybabygrl]

luv all three games and the song

[AndiiandBeckii]

I agree with all the other teens on here. I prefer this to Kesha lady gaga Katy perry etc.

[Shad0wSpill]

Not many people know this:

"That Haunting Melody" was one of the very first songs to employ "scatting", in which the singer uses nonsense spoken syllables to vocalize like a musical instrument.

...Just an interesting fact >.>

[DarkLeonUK]

@Shad0wSpill cool

[tybabygrl]

@Shad0wSpill i knew it heehee^__^

[morganxhalsdorf]

it plays after the mad hatter escapes

[morganxhalsdorf]

this song plays in alice is dead episode 2 the flash game series

[Melicioel7]

I love the phonograph touch

[neinmeisternein]

I swear Bugs Bunny was singing That Haunting Melody in that one episode.

[AyumiHyuga1]

This song scares the crap out of me. ...I love it.

[ANeonTiger]

@AyumiHyuga1 hahaha I'm glad I'm not the only one!

[pannoni1]

Reminds me a bit of the Titanic.

[Goldenwolf546]

@pannoni1 why?

[TheTunefulWhistle]

100 years old, and yet, still better than that '50p' and 'dozze rascal'.

I love you Al.

[smeagolfishy]

yes, i have heard that haunting melody *.*

[ryster2220]

People had better taste in music 100 years ago than they do today.

[backlash0108]

Thumbs up if u came here after playing Alice is Dead 2.

[LadyYuzuki]

Dang it I feel so old-fashion when I love and listen to these songs despite being a teen surrounded by other teens into Lady Gaga and Snoop Dog ;;;>>

[LaCasadeGaga]

@LadyYuzuki No matter listening Gaga and these songs. I do and I'm sixteen ;)

[ANeonTiger]

@LaCasadeGaga Whoa, you must be so non-conformist, edgy, and unique.

[TheMorningStar1991]

lmao every time i hear this song, i think of that dead guy jammed in the elevator door on alice is dead 2... XD

[PrinceLawless]

No dislike xD UNBELIEVEABLE!

This is pure art xD

[rikusonfirelord]

I love this song. :D

[Kurki]

I like to get high with crack and listen this

[robbyinchains]

1910 - Yayayeedaya ya (Sounding beautiful)

2010 - Watch me crak dat soulja boiy, YOUUU. (WTF how stupid are people)

[ANeonTiger]

@robbyinchains 2007, actually.

[librarybob1958]

George M. Cohan wrote it, and Al Jolson had one of his first big hits with it, in 1912's "Vera Violetta." He recorded it shortly thereafter, at his first session with Victor that same year.

[kingofthebox46]

Yeooow

Alice is dead 2

[RaDiOaCtiVehEpCaT]

I don't know where I heard it... but I like it from the staaaart.. =D

[TheRoguesse]

TaaaaaaaDyaDyaDyaDyaDyaDyaaaaa­Dyaaaaaa... ;)

[sk8teh14]

Dr. Raymond Burr was a cowardly man with a big heart, until he lost all his money...

[RaDiOaCtiVehEpCaT]

@sk8teh14 God I think I went crazy having to hear that over and over until I figured out what to do.

[Shad0wSpill]

@sk8teh14 lol how is that not the top comment?

[TheButcherClan]

I have the lyrics if anyone is interested.

[imdatpisceschick]

im 13 and when my father and i are in the car my favorite station on the [satelite] radio is the 40s station yet my favorite band is no doubt. i think more children/teens these days need to be more well rounded and not just be focusing on the simple minded peopl that only sing about money "bitches" and cars. just saying. also alice is dead 2 ftw...

[whatsmynameagain66]

im 14 and i like this music

[karlykarlykarlyyy]

this is brilliant

and the games amazing

could anybody recommend ,e something like this?

x

[johnnytubeaccount]

ARRRGG this song makes me go crazy

[IzanagiSMT]

@johnnytubeaccount me too! , but it´s creepy!

[lunchmeat400]

the ice cream truck that comes around plays this.

[robbyinchains]

I'm 13 and find this ackwardly good.

My dad thinks I'm a weirdo and my friends think i'm 'lame' because I don't listen to lil' Wayne or some other idiot with 'lil in front of their names.

I'm in love with music from the 90's 70's (late 80's too) 60's (If the beatles were in the 50's too yes) and the 20's . A few songs from the 2000's are good though.

[GrahamChapman]

@robbyinchains: You've got my respect, little one. It takes some real backbone to openly stand up for oneself and not just go along with whatever the rest of the sheep herd's thinks. Remain adamant in your individuality and personal integrity, you hear that?

(Check out Tom Lehrer, singer-songwriter, satirist, pianist, and mathematician from the mid-60s. His songs aren't really anything special from a musical gourmet's perspective, but his lyrics are arch-ingenious from a Monty Pythonesqe pov.)

[CyanideFilledCandy]

I'm so in love with this song. It's so lighthearted and fun. It puts me in the mind of Alice in Wonderland.

[FraeKification]

*Would also be a good song for Fallout 3

[MattisSoderstorm]

@FraeKification

[FraeKification]

Were also a good song for Fallout 3

[marstheforthplanet]

@SmrtyPntz92

Same... and I'm 12 :]

[Extra365]

@SmrtyPntz92 this really is a mix of classic and folk music, and the bad quality itself actually enhances the feel. nobody gives a shit about classic or folk anymore, sadly

[CherryCoveredCow]

@SmrtyPntz92 i love this as well and im 14 as well as henry hall's songs
