The Original "Good Morning Vietnam" - AFVN Radio

[batwayne62]

Pat Sajak started out on AFRS radio

[MrVanorsdol]

My Father opened up suddenly and said he and the men of the Younger Tiger Taskforce SAC waited to hear this long roll. They maintained no routine schedule on scrable alert / wait - to bomb the empty jungle usually. Then again, my Father refuses to listen too closely, as his eyes said that is.

Goooooooooooooooooooooooood... (2 weeks later)

Morning Vietnam <3

[contrailjj]

I LOVE it - ... Adrian Cronauer, the day (time zones) I was born.

[iamnaughty123]

It was a real thing over there. Sad we lost so many lives. The radio never told us about all of the protesting and riots going on from the assassination of Dr Martin Luther King.

The long GOOOOD morning was too distract us from reality.

[WMH435]

The good starts at 0:04 and ends at 0:23 lol and I was thinking there was something wrong with the video.

[UNCLESCOTT123]

what a waist. that is crappy crap

[Fuhgl]

Turn on the vuvuzelas and it sounds like a Mexican soccer match right after they scored a goal.

[dylcarlie]

if you are checking ur radiostations u would find it :p

[changsifon]

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooood MOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooorning Vietnaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam

[builtstrong2lastlong]

ive just started annoucing the bulletins at school, me and a buddy are trying to make it more enthusiastic and what a piece of inspiration this is, and the movie

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

good stuff i think i can get this free download

[pimpfang1]

my dad and uncle both told me stories about hearing this every morning my dad did three tours and 4 of my uncles did 2 one of my uncles was on his 3rd but was wounded so he got to leave, but they all said the first time they heard this they busted out laughing

[looselatigo]

Used to hear this every morning at 6AM back in '69. Pat Sajak of Wheel of Fortune had the Dawnbusters program back then.

[josebvliborio]

I´ve never heard it before perhaps I´ve view the comment of Adrian Cronauer in the Making of the Film.. Fantastic!

[sodacan187]

I wish I could do it more than 10 seconds than this recording.

[PhenyxinNC]

Goddess Bless You Adrian! You were a bless in every time!

[blackcaptor2]

Good Idea to have something that annoying on first thing in the morning. After that, the soldiers would already be in the mood to kill.

[bekloppterkeks93]

@blackcaptor2 well guess u mean goooooooooooooooooooo... ... ... oooooooooooooooooooooooooooood idea.. :>

[NewWorldFreedomFight]

@blackcaptor2 or just switch it to Radio Hanoi.

[NickB1967]

The Original "Good Morning Vietnam" - AFVN Radio

[dadsarmyfrules]

lol the reson the song starts as soon as he stops talking his becase hes gasping for air

[tigersteve1]

This all actually started in 1915 during the first world war, the then radio announcer Peter Stantony used to say gooooooooood morninnnnngg London before he sent his Morse code signals over to the UK from France my Grand Father Was that said man and told me the story in 1978.

[NotesCollector]

lol..what a great pair of lungs!must be the only such type in the world!

[chesterinoaussie]

watch south american football highlights on youtube- this guy is good.... but they go insane xD

they dont just go gooooooooooooooooooooooal

they go: gooooooooooooooooooooooool golgolgolgolgolgolgolgolllllll­lllllllll!!!!!!!!! goooooooooooooooololololololol­olololololol

and so on. its hilarious if your in the mood for it xD

[funnnnnyguy33]

lungs is.... great

[visaman]

What would John Wayne ever think about that. In the film The Green Berets, there was nothing like that, just Wayne walking into the sunrise.

[nermlinger1941]

Actually the radio announcer was soft spoken and never yelled Gooooooooooooood morning Viet Nam. It was a simple and short "Good morning Viet Nam". Not like show biz would have you think. AFRN rules at keeping it simple.

[larsieman1988]

actually he did.. there is an interview with the guy on the dvd of good morning vietnam, he said that he did not do that in the beginning but after a while he started do do that, but the gi's didnt always liked it:p when he left the guys after him would still do it that way, so the gis thougt that cronauer was still on the air while he was at home:P he would still got fanmail

[themark4]

Searching my bad memory cells, but I think that a woman named Chris Noel was another DJ during my tour. 68-69

The radio helped us hang on to some sanity.

[Khesanh68881N]

Exact

[crankatorium]

@themark4 were you actually in Vietnam or you're just tryin to sound more credible?

[stablegate]

For the record, the voice is neither Chronauer nor Williams. It's Don Fox, formerly from Hollidaysburg PA, now living in Rochester NY. He (I) did the show from January tthrough October 1967. Trust me, the recording is real.

[garcial1976]

i was in Danang in 68,on my second tour,Bravo company used to listen to this all the time.

We used to turn it up so that we couldn't hear "Charlie" being tortured!! death cards all round to this one!!! gunner-thompson..reg line1968-Nevada Company.

[fulsomstryk]

I tried it out and I could do it.

[fignal]

where does someone find lungs like that?

[rottenbuffalo]

Our company arrived in-country and landed on Bien Hoa in December 1967 and then went to Cu Chi for one month's orientation. About five minutes to six the next morning someone in the hooch turned on the radio where we heard a chaplain give a five minute sermonette. Then at exactly 6 AM, we all heard G-o-o-o-o-o-o-d morning, Vietnam and just cracked up! Was he serious? Anyway, we all looked forward to hearing that every morning when we could, as well as all the terrific rock tunes from the states.

[nallard]

Thanks for your service!!! This movie was great with Robin Williams--was he accurate?

[rottenbuffalo]

I read an article by Adrian Cronauer and he said, that if he did half the stuff that was depicted in "Good Morning, Vietnam," he'd still be in Leavenworth prison.

[FreeknNasty]

Wow! Fantastic stuff.

And bless you and all vets a million times over.

[rjcarlin101]

if i had to get my balls blown off over a word..my word is POONTANG!!

[optimizmus]

19,44 seconds... a real optimistic

[Mindraker1]

I didn't even know it was based off of a real character.

[FabioGrane]

Goooooooooooooooood morning youtube!

[melig1991]

Good set of lungs indeed. But not amazing :D, I bet a lot of people can do that. Funny to hear the original recording tho.

[TOMofBaltimore]

ram it up your ass Meliq! 1991?? what? are you 15?

[melig1991]

16, and what does that have to do with this eh?

[TOMofBaltimore]

because it IS amazing. even I could hold a note for longer, but how different was that for it's time? 15 seconds of 'OOooo'? had a movie based on it, radio announcers to this day still use that single phrase for inspiration. amazing!

[captcharly]

lol very funny !!! :)

[joeslifeyork]

nah.. thats false as hell.. and it isnt robin williams at all - anyone whos seen the film will know that.

[skipplet]

Of course it wasn't Robin Williams. That was the REAL Adrian Cronauer. Robin Williams' character was loosely based off of him.

[SEAZNDragon]

A little bit a trivia: In a DVD interview the real Adrian Cronauer talk about how he came about the "Good Morning Vietnam" phase. It was something he did in Crete when he came to the studio late and needed time to get organized. But Crouner strentched out the "Good" whether then a rising cresendo as Robin Williams did.

[onephattai]

That was Robin William

[skipplet]

no, that was Adrian Cronauer (the real one)

[gopexon]

thats complete bollocks,

no way, thats been tampered with

[Technospy]

i cant belive you can do that for so long

[cumulo25]

Damn good lungs!!!
