When Other Lips - Felix Knight - The Bohemian Girl - Laurel, Hardy

[TheE8gisell]

They don;t write songs like this anymore.......nor operas like "The Bohemian Girl"

[Mikado8848]

When coldness or deceit shall slight ...

The beauty now they prize ...

And deem it but a faded light ... which beams within your eyes ...

When hollow hearts shall wear a mask ... ‘twill break your own to see ...

In such a moment I ... but ask ... that you’ll remember me ...

That you’ll remember, that you’ll remember me.

[Mikado8848]

Should be pretty close...I no longer have the libretto handy:

Then You’ll Remember Me

When other lips and other hearts ... their tales of love shall tell ...

In language whose excess imparts ... the pow’r they feel so well ...

There may perhaps in such a scene ... some recollection be ...

Of days that have as happy been ... and you’ll remember me ...

And you’ll remember, you’ll remember me ...

Verse Two to follow... It won't let me put both in one.

Felix Knight stars as Tom Tom in L&H's "Babes in Toyland."

[jackpotismydog]

can anyone tell me what this eppisode is called? or what season it was from, thanks

&is this the same eppisode as the one with the whole 'the eyes are the windows to your soul' thing with the gypsies, thanks

[varadero1839]

@jackpotismydog I can't comment on the "eyes are the windows to your soul" remark, but the film, as the title says, is "The Bohemian Girl," from 1936. The correct name of the song is "Then You'll Remember Me."

[iceland69able]

If anyone has the lyrics to this song please post them. I checked about 15 websites related to it and cant find them. Thanks

I believe that the object of Felix Knight's affection is a young Paulette Goddard.

[varadero1839]

@JJRaff18221882 Thanks so much for commenting! It could be Ms. Goddard, but she's on screen for so brief a time it's hard to tell. Good hearing from you!

[JJRaff18221882]

@varadero1839 You're welcome (-: I was reading some background on L & H's movies this past week and there was a reference to Paulette as having had an uncredited role in this film.  Viewing this clip and looking at a photo of her elsewhere - well, the resemblance was to close to be anyone else. As a former tenor myself, I absolutely love Felix Knight's voice (also like Allan Jones). I wish there were more Felix Knight posted here as his recordings are almost non-existent on CD.

@varadero1839 good suggestion but it really doesn't look like Goddard to me. hehe. Thanks a lot for posting, this was a great laurel/hardy film I love this part of it. Felix Knight had quite a good voice and actually had a fairly successful opera career, later becoming a voice teacher. Jacqueline wells was very cute too.. anyone know off hand who did her singing for her?

[patthecatman]

@varadero1839 another anomaly: thelma todd was to play hardy's wife, but she died mysteriously. the "ever popular" mae busch ended up in the role; thelma's name is in the credits, but never appeared in the film.

[varadero1839]

@patthecatman From everything I've read over the years, Ms. Todd was "snuffed," by a local LA mob. Apparently, she was "persona non grata" with some gunsels. I've viewed other locations, but if you have a chance, just type in her name on Wikipedia. The results are astounding, but not surprising. Thanks so much for writing.

@varadero1839 Thelma Todd appears in the film singing "Heart of Gipsy"

[shanghaibenny2]

Oh-oh! I thinks she is going to get the money from Stan. Thanks for the nostalgia.

[varadero1839]

@shanghaibenny2 Guess she'd do just about anything to be with "Devilshoof!" Stan's just the next step in her tawdry plot. Gotta love any performer who can wear "spitcurls" with such abandon! Thanks so much for your comment.

@varadero1839 nevermind i see the singer is already named on your other video ;] thakns
