  • this is not your song

  • I am a crocodile and I approve this song.

  • I love this song can listen to it over and over

  • cute

  • Loved it but thumbs down for the slightly lewd anime at beginning

  • this is so fucked up its funny

  • @hottpinkglitterr it's a shirley temple song. :)

  • What's this from? 

  • @joe14636 It's not from anything! It's a christmas song from the 50's

  • i want one to

  • Aside from discussing the reasons AGAINST owning a hippo and parking it in the yard -which would make me odious and earn me a lot of insults- I WILL say that the song is a typical absurd novelty song.

    I once asked for a Nintendo and the Sonic game, but I got other things instread. Some years later, I finally got to play the Sonic Game on the laptop - and could not get very far into level 2. Too difficult to hold onto game lives, etc. I'm glad I didn't waste my Dad's cash on that "game"

  • @EmmetEarwax Too bad Sonic wasn't on Nintendo until the Gamecube era in the early 2000's.

    And either way, you must suck if you can't get past the first few levels in Sonic.

  • I'd rather have a bunch of rabid Hyena, they're about as safe as a hippo. Buggers are very vicious and kill anything that isn't a hippo or that is one that's in its yard. And for protection against them if you haven't got artillery support I'd go for anything belt fed with rounds equal to or larger than 7.62mm.

  • I STOP IT ON 0:28 >_>

  • this is supost to be about a lovly hippoppotamus not an ugly werdo singing like betty boop

  • I've known this Christmas song for some years now, as my housemate who is a pianist/organist has the music and plays it here at home during the holidays. Well, this year he is getting a hippo along with his other gifts. What fun!

  • Awesome song. I still remember hearing it for the first time exactly 5 years ago today. By the way can u tell me what those animes used were or were they just art work.

  • I could do without the first 30 seconds and the last 15. I almost gave up on it in the intro.

  • The animation of a mystery

    It has laughed.

  • we love the hero hippo! Too cute and funny! :D

  • i no it is so amazing!!!!!!!!!!

  • I played this for someone, and he said, "Is that 'I want a hippopotamus for Christmas; only a lobotomist will do'?" a bad joke, of course; I didn't mean any offense.

  • THIS SONG IS AMAZINGGGGG!!!!!!!

  • What is with 0:13? thumbs up if you agree. :)

  • weird

  • horrible intro bro

  • Their were no lyrics at all

  • @beccalovesyou121 it doesnt say lyrics anywhere

  • Little known musico-historical fact: this was the original version to Beethoven's "Moonlight" sonata. Beethoven, going deaf at the time, couldn't tell the difference between the first 30-second slow piano part from the remaining 3-minute hippopotamus part, until a young protege of Beethoven pointed out that the two parts don't really fit together. In a rage, Beethoven tore off the Hippopotamus part and scribbled "To the memory of a great ungulate" on the top of the score.

  • @mphello --so the intro actually is a part of this song? Wow, the good thing the young protege spoke up. The two really don't fit together at all.

  • Intro was sick.

  • love this song

  • OK Your 4 years old bouncing off the walls ..in the living room with your sisters

  • ah. classic.

  • LOVE ME

  • This would've been my maternal grandma's anthem around Christmas...that is, if she didn't get sick of our hippo gifts that were seemingly endless :-P

  • i bet she was dissapointed...

  • 202 rhinoceroses don't like this song!

  • awsome with a buzz!
