at least state the year for christ's sake, 1941. hello the 1940's lol that's a whole fuckin' decade. do you realize how much music changed from 1940 to 1949? shit just look at T-Bone Walker & Big Joe Turner.
Back in the 5th grade my school had a play where we re-enacted a whole bunch of old radio routines. We had a dance number based on this song. Swingin'.
i'm in my school's choir, and we had to sing this song on our last concert. my friends didn't like this song, but i did. it caught my attention, and i completely fell in love with it. and our band played the music, and it was like 1940 again. love this song!! :D
I remember my great grandfather used to talk to me about seeing one of their concerts while he was on leave from the navy while he was serving on the USS enterprise during WWII
I love these tunes. so do my children as i play a wide rang off music to them we dance sing and just have fun. that's what my parents did for all of us as kids. to all parents out there keep history up by teaching the kids from young. play all and they will like all
They couldn't have said Bravo Company now could they! The Andrews Sisters were not only popular because of there Jazzy Song and Dance Numbers, but for there beauty!
I danced to this song at my PTA program it was so fun me and my friends favorite part is "basic guitar its a rythemmmmmm ummmmmm" Anyway I love this song
Great song! I love doowop (obviosly), but I also love big band! The Andrew Sisters were awesome! remember 3 girls (one I had a crush on) in elementary school in about 1974 did a little dance routine to this song, and I've loved it every since. Thanks for posting.
You are right, 1musiclad, in my post I was wondering if anyone could understand why this was so. It is a technical question. The Andrews Sisters knew the answer, Midler and all the imitators do not know the answer.
i agree timing is probably the main reason but i dont think it's the only reason.
the harshness of the voices in covers also detracts from the song. the andrews sisters' voices were soft but vibrant at the same time. that is what i find unexplainable. and that is why their version is the only version worth listening to.
When I was in 11th grade, my American History teacher played this song when were learning about W.W.II. I was the only one that knew every word. I finally got the whole class dancing!
@datchick2dafullest No shit...I just wanted to piss you off...I'm glad to see it worked. Now get back to school and get educated before you come back on here yelling.
@datchick2dafullest wow you sound a little upset over nothing important.. take it easy... it does not matter how words are spelled now a days... everyone understand anyway... take a chill pill... God Bless you...
As long as we're picking nits, there were one or possibly two pictures of US soldiers way past WW II, but that's generally consistant with the photos of US soldiers, musicians and singers and an attempt to link the WWII people to current US soldiers, whether done on purpose or unintentionally, is not a fault or problem. But the photo of the guy in the German helmet who fought under Hitler's command should be edited out, if it is possible.
Whatever. A German soldier of the late 1930s-mid 1940s, when the Third Reich controlled the German army, the only time they had helmets exactly like that. The graphics are all from the time of the song, i.e., World War II. You are picking nits, BobbyDobby. It is a distinction without a difference.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This is very good, overall. I have one major visual correction I think you should make.
Around 1 min 27 sec.s into this, you show a soldier on one knee aiming a rifle. His helmet is clearly that of a Nazi soldier, with that ear covering piece in back. I'd remove him for an American.
it funny they had around ww2 and we have Christina Aguilera smiler one to it only our day wired eh and yet am into old stuff xD one thing for prop to Christina Andrew sister are no longer alive good she remake of this. i guess she did to show Yong's about war and old music was good even now.
I think by the 40's ... American music was starting to represent a blend of the different styles that made up America even back then ... African American, Latino, Native, Anglo, etc.
I looked over the comments, to try and get a feel, for this number and accompanying video, but in my opinion, it's just screams at the fact that even the "old fogies" so to speak, back in the 40's still had a lot of rhythm and boogie in their souls. These people knew how to "get with it" even back then, and to me it still stands up today as great, movin', "get down" kind of music. Hat's off to all of them and God bless them for being behind the troops too. Marc.
Our marching band is doing patriotic music from 1945. This is the second song in our show. When ever we play it we always have it stuck in our heads by the end of the practice.
It's hard song to march to because of the odd fast beat.
This is probably one of my favorite songs of all time! I think it is one of the greatest vocal boogies of all time. I just love to hear it played on a theatre organ!
As Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy was the patriotic theme song for World War Two, there have been many other songs dedicated to wars fought throughout American history. Over There was used during World War One. Some glorified war while other songs sent a bad message about it. Vietnam was no exception with songs such as Universal Soldier. The 1st Gulf War gave us Proud to Be an American. And the War on Terror brought us Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue by Toby Keith. There are many others though.
I LOVE THIS SONG!!! I've been thinking of it forEVER!!! Now the company jumps when he sounds revilie, he's the Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy of Company B! I LOVE YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
...Missed the boat by 30 years. I would've loved to have been part of that golden generation! This upbeat, confident song is a reflection of that generation!
o yeah... i heard their version the other day, I like how they didnt try and copy the Andrews sisters, It made me not compare the two. I love this song, Andrews sisters and capital children's choir. The choir realy made the song their own, and had a awsome solist, I couldnt believe that she was a kid!
too be honest, i've found a love for "older" songs and a lot of the new stuff. i mean, u can't go into a dance club today and expect many ppl to dance well to this song, or at least dance clubs that are "hot" amoung young ppl, so i've found a balance to enjoy both. =D
Have you heard Christina Aguilera's "Candyman". It is a great homage to the boogie-woogie sound, even if the lyrics are quite a bit more risque than they would have been in that day. :-)
Nope, not yet, but I know she's got good pipes. I'll check that out. Sounds like something I'd like to hear. BTW, for its time, some of the lyrics in Andrews Sisters songs were risqué, but not in this song. What about "Beat me, daddy, eight to the bar?" or "Bounce me, brother, with a solid four?"
Good point about double-entendres. I love those best, because when you know what they mean, they make you feel smart. Thanks for suggesting I find the vid here; I'll check it out.
I saw that and really enjoyed the song. Thanks for pointing it out! I bought it on iTunes, even, and bought a few more of Aquilera's from iTunes, too.
Yepper, that's a good example. I mighta been stretching it a bit with "Bounce me, brother" [though folks back then were used to using double meaning to hide things from the young kids]. I'm OK with seeing "Beat me, daddy" as risque in a number of ways. It's all in relation to what people thought was OK to say *then*, not what we think here and now.
Congratulations on your preference. The popular standards of long ago often were rich with appealing melody and lyrics. But the music industry, for marketing and bottom line profit reasons, has to teach the public to shift musical styles. No matter what is being sold, a new "version" or "model" is needed periodically to stimulate business. But new and different isn't always better or even as good. Sounds like you've found that out.
Many songs today are either about sex, drinking, smoking, beating up women, or just sounds really retarded to me. Songs of the older days, like this one, are more catchy, clean, and doesn't give me a headache. :)
Im a little offended. I love punk rock, and I had the guts to join the military and fight for our rights. But thats your right to say that. Not to mention, I perfer swing, rockabilly, and blues any way.
If only the music of today had the class and charisma of yesterday!! Does not take much talent to make it in music these days. Perhaps the young should take lessons from the old!! Andrew Sisters were a CLASS ACT!!!
lol, i totally agree! XD. i'm love going to my grandparents home and playing there records, and i'm always watching "old" movies w/ my dad. :P. our fave is casablanca. it stumps me that not many my age never know what i'm talking about....but then again, i'm only 17.

And arouses them upstairs the monolithic technique in the primal screaming

o yeah... i heard their version the other day, I like how they didnt try and copy the Andrews sisters, It made me not compare the two. I love this song, Andrews sisters and capital children's choir. The choir realy made the song their own, and had a awsome solist, I couldnt believe that she was a kid!

too be honest, i've found a love for "older" songs and a lot of the new stuff. i mean, u can't go into a dance club today and expect many ppl to dance well to this song, or at least dance clubs that are "hot" amoung young ppl, so i've found a balance to enjoy both. =D

Have you heard Christina Aguilera's "Candyman". It is a great homage to the boogie-woogie sound, even if the lyrics are quite a bit more risque than they would have been in that day. :-)

Nope, not yet, but I know she's got good pipes. I'll check that out. Sounds like something I'd like to hear. BTW, for its time, some of the lyrics in Andrews Sisters songs were risqué, but not in this song. What about "Beat me, daddy, eight to the bar?" or "Bounce me, brother, with a solid four?"

Well, you're right, but that was more of a double-entendre. Christina's song is a lot more blatant, but still fun.

Forgot to mention, you can find her vid right here on youtube.
eemmeennddeell 5 years ago
Good point about double-entendres. I love those best, because when you know what they mean, they make you feel smart. Thanks for suggesting I find the vid here; I'll check it out.

I saw that and really enjoyed the song. Thanks for pointing it out! I bought it on iTunes, even, and bought a few more of Aquilera's from iTunes, too.

I'm not sure how those lyrics are racey, but what about Rum and Coca Cola? Clearly a song about a mother and daughter who are prostitutes.

Yepper, that's a good example. I mighta been stretching it a bit with "Bounce me, brother" [though folks back then were used to using double meaning to hide things from the young kids]. I'm OK with seeing "Beat me, daddy" as risque in a number of ways. It's all in relation to what people thought was OK to say *then*, not what we think here and now.

These days, I prefer older music, like this one, over today's and I'm only 24.

Congratulations on your preference. The popular standards of long ago often were rich with appealing melody and lyrics. But the music industry, for marketing and bottom line profit reasons, has to teach the public to shift musical styles. No matter what is being sold, a new "version" or "model" is needed periodically to stimulate business. But new and different isn't always better or even as good. Sounds like you've found that out.

Many songs today are either about sex, drinking, smoking, beating up women, or just sounds really retarded to me. Songs of the older days, like this one, are more catchy, clean, and doesn't give me a headache. :)

I had to sing this song for my school choir, I had to watch it, caught my attention! I didn't know it was so long.

Hey Mermaid believer???Do you think your rapper punk Generation would have the guts to fight that big war that that Generation WON????

Im a little offended. I love punk rock, and I had the guts to join the military and fight for our rights. But thats your right to say that. Not to mention, I perfer swing, rockabilly, and blues any way.

If only the music of today had the class and charisma of yesterday!! Does not take much talent to make it in music these days. Perhaps the young should take lessons from the old!! Andrew Sisters were a CLASS ACT!!!
