  • @drbjd Well....

  • 10 people are pigs

  • This is the good old music!!!! I am 15 years of age, and alot of kids my age that I know like this new music and these new songs. For some reason, and I don't know why, some just are in love with Justin Beiber and Miley Cyrus exc. Honestly, I don't think that they can sing, but that is a matter of opinion. I fall in love with the 50's and 60's music!!!

  • @BreeDavid35 agreed.

  • It is nice to find out that someone agrees with you on that matter,lol. I have 5 cousins and none of them like Justin Beiber or Miley Cyrus and all these other new teenage singers. But from your comment it's nice to know that someone else agrees with me besides family. :)

  • One of the greatest songs IMO.

  • There will never be another Bing ♥

    

  • I have this record. I used to play it for my nephew when he was litte and who is now 24 years old. He just loved it and went crazy over it!!! I will never forget it.

  • Listen key jockey badass... people have been singing others songs since before you daddy was squirted out. Frankie did this song as well, so you gona say shit about Frankie and Bing???? Do us a favor and get out with your lame ass tough guy posts, and dont reproduce.

  • We need a return to stuff like this. Preachiness is a virtue in this day and age

  • I'd rather be a fish :)

  • I'd rather be a fish :)

  • First heard this song on an old "Little Lulu" cartoon! My mom always liked to sing this song...

  • rofl this song is kinda silly

  • nothin like old school big band music. personally one of my many favs. and i have a wide taste in music except beiber, most rap, and modern country.

  • My stepfather used to sing me this song back in the pre-TV days. This is one of my most treasured memories. Thank you for posting.

  • I think we need to bring the 40s music back. inkspot bing crosby so on and so on

  • OMG Im seein Bieber comment please dont tell me hes doing a version of this song. God would it KIll singers to write their own music anymore

  • i am glad music evolves especially when i hear this genre

  • This is a fun song and I think appropriate for any teacher to play for their class.

  • 9 mules disliked this.

  • to bad the misses doesn't really like this type of music. Took me almost 3 years to finally get her to wanna go to a misfit concert... =]

  • looks like Bieber has 9 fans

  • lolwtf

  • hudson hawk has picked the best song to possibly sing

  • a little thing invented in 97 called auto tuner killed real talent...

  • @Thebarginator

  • I Love This, This Is True Talent. <3

  • This song speaks for itself,,, life is good,, for all those who want it good,, just make some effort, stay away from trouble, and life is a smooth slide!!!

  • This always makes me think of that Little Lulu cartoon.

  • We need a new age of music, to the fourties again!

  • @TheFreelancer117 I agree.

  • I was the 666th like on this video, but that still doesn't stop this song from being amazing. :) I heard this on that Little Lulu cartoon when I was little :D.

  • I think some of these songs by Bing should be on Galaxy Radio in Fallout 3.

  • What the Fuck happened to music?

  • the oldies but goodies <3

  • You are so right, blade9350. Bing has been entertaining for almost 100 years. Through his voice recordings and films he is well known to at least eight generations of listeners. That's staying power!

    What's a justinbieber anyway? A soda pop drink or something?

  • @yoyopie101 Well, tell you what, I wish I had your math teacher.

  • If you listen to a lot of music you can hear blatantly see how, in a way, it was a sin to be different. I'm not saying to not do the stuff he says but if you listen to some other stuff too you can tell. I like that. It's interesting.

  • @steve123456789101

    I'm pretty sure this song isn't about conformity. It's about not being a slob, a moron, dishonest, etc. It's a morally fine song.

  • Comment removed

  • I sang this song in the sixth grade

  • @87Kefka i sang it in tard grade

  • artists like this dont exist these days.. its a sad fact. the oldies are the greatest. 

  • @TheTraveler12 So true, brother, So true.

    I mean, now were getting artists who aren't even human. Literally.

    I listen to that stuff, too. But I love this music.

    Nothing can replace these songs.

  • @TheTraveler12 agreed :)

  • this was in the Far Side

  • Or would you rather be a mule...

    A drug mule.

  • My friend's dad was singing this back in Oct. and now. I just had to YouTube this song to know what he is talking about. He is so funny when he sings this.

  • I had an African Gray parrot that could sing the first verse of this. RIP WeeJee Bird.

  • I grew up to be a fish

  • Bieber is pushed by the whole machine what the fuck do you expect... those money push hard and they need more money in return ;)

  • bieber fuck

  • @JessicaLuv7383 Really? I'll loan one :D

  • ps get a room

  • You have lost all sight or life, and the days when days where good, get over it...No they wernt the best of all days,but they wher the best we ever seen...Bing and the others were all Great .....or would you rather listen to rap? Better off than you are??.. I think so.....not. Blessed Be

  • With today's justin Biebers, you kinda forget what an actual male singing voice sounds like...

  • Best baritone ever, bar none...

  • Justin Bieber made 6 accounts and thumbed this down.

  • i have a question, so the whole point of the song is telling us to like school??

    can someone answerme>??

    just wonderin u know.

  • @pinkyaz09 think so, its a song about how you have to work to achieve something, not like those 'ganster rap' songs that say you have to drink, fight and f*ck to get somewhere

  • @noodels18 Good for you!

  • This song should be part of every nation's anthem:

    i) first you play your nation's anthm

    ii) then you play this song

    iii) and smack anyone that resembles any of the animals mentioned in this song

  • My mom use to sing me to sleep with this and have done so to my kids as well, had no idea was a Bing Crosby song till now!

  • 173,276 views.... Justin Bieber gets 410 million.... That's just wrong.

  • @blade9350 oh goodness... :'[

  • @blade9350 STOP IT! Stop bringing up Justin Bieber in non-Justin Bieber situations. Seriously, nobody who chooses to listen to Bing Crosby cares, and like all the other teen sensations he'll eventually go away and be forgotten. There's no need to go around whining about the kid at every opportunity, and frankly when you're choosing to ignore teen sensations, it's BLOODY ANNOYING to see people who just can't stop bringing them up.

  • @SynthOno "nobody who chooses to listen to Bing Crosby cares"? Then why is that comment a highest rated comment? And I wasn't "whining" about him I could care less about him, just pointing out that i thought it was ironic how a person with talent gets outwatched and outfamed by a runaway elf hopped up on helium. Yet you also said choosing to ignore him was "BLOODY ANNOYING". ah but i wasnt ignoring was i. think about what you type next time

  • @blade9350 You are the last person in the world to tell someone to think about what they type. You care about Justin Bieber, because you post about him in unrelated situations - Bing Crosby has nothing to do with Justin Bieber. You are right that you could care less, because the phrase is couldn't care less and you clearly care a great deal, because you complain about him here rather than enjoying this song. You're not ignoring him, because you bring him up for no reason.

  • @SynthOno THANKYOU VERY MUCH!!

  • @SynthOno It irritates me to no end....

  • @blade9350 no its not justin bieber is a fucking bitch

  • @blade9350 No shit Sherlock

  • @blade9350 in 65 years, out Justin Bieaber up, see how many he gets then

  • @blade9350 But The Upside is that Justin Bieber has more dislikes than likes !

  • @blade9350 ur just stupid like the mule

    

  • @Rnunezish and you're negative like any number that's less than zero.

  • @blade9350 relative to the age of the population that use this media.

    

  • @blade9350 Yes, but justin bieber's views are just from someone clicking on the video and leaving.

    For this video's views I'm sure people came to listen to the full song. Also some like myself have even downloaded it for later use. Don't loose hope in humanity just yet.

  • @blade9350 if you don't like bieber why do you even mention him for fucks sake? I hate it when i come here to listen to a great classic i look at the first comment ... and suddenly the charm is gone.

    don't do that man

  • @ivrin9 I know? Is that really necessary?

  • @blade9350 Honestly don't see why you care about the opinions of 410 million Justin Bieber fans, no offense. Who cares how many people like him? Just sit back, relax, and listen to something much better, yeah?

  • @KakanSetra Not To Mention That Crosby Sold Half A Billion Records In The Last Century.

  • @blade9350 It's amazing. The shitty artists get all the attention & popularity while the truly great get shafted

  • Bieber doesn't abuse his children (yet)...

  • cool thats interesting

    do you like the "oldies" too?

  • or would you rather be a... TWAT!

  • would you like to swing on a star or would you rather beat your kids....

  • How could you not liek this? 6 ignorant morons in the world.... get off here and go listen to Lady GaGa or whatever.

  • @linwiththegrin i think, sadly, that there are probably a lot more than 6 ignorant morons in the world... nobody's educated anymore... sad, ain't it

  • @peanut110962

    U rotten loool I wonder if he kept his pipe clenched in the corner of his mouth while he was beating his kids..now that's talent!

    I don't believe this man hit his kids. I just can't picture it

  • I can't imagine this sweet singin man as an abusive father. It just don't add up

  • He's got a beautiful voice. But he's a douche bag.

  • HOLY CRAP! I finally found this song!

  • I remember this song from Little Lulu :D

  • crap mudafuckin trak bled

  • suck ur mum u kock suka fucking bitch

    

  • there is definitely reefer in that pipe

  • These songs are in a class of their own , no comparison

  • he 4got to mention and add a monkey.

  • Rien de mieux que l'original. Film la route semée d'étoiles titre français. sorti en 1944. Diffusé à la télévision Française et les chaines cinéma du câble pas mal de fois... Malgré tout, les deux version sont aussi sympa, l'une et l'autre
