Me singing Cooking Breakfast For The One I Love from the TV show Vaudeville Madness. This song was recorded by Annette Hanshaw and Fanny Brice in 1930. I remember seeing Fanny Brice singing the the song also in a film clip with Robert Armstrong here on youtube but I can't find it anymore. Anyone have a link to it? Fanny Brice acts the song out while she is singing it like the vaudevillians did and I act it out too on the clip from this Tv Show.

  • who was on the piano?

  • The pianist was Kurt "The Dude"

  • I like that you're acting out the scene while singing and having a good time like the old vaudeville days. I'm not very keen on the Nick Nolte look alike though.

  • Thanks a lot for the complement. The guy on the show with me in this video was not familiar with the style of singing and acting in the 1920's or vaudeville. I had to painstakenly teach him almost second by second what to do. I had to rehearse with him for weeks to get him to the point he could give some kind of approximation of the time on the show.

  • This Is Just So Wonderful! It Looks Just The Way They Did These Skits In This Era. Thanks For Keeping These Great Songs Alive.

  • Fanny Brice singing this song and acting it out in a movie was my inspiration for this. I have noticed a lot of singers doing these old 1920's songs today just stand still by a microphone and sing. I try to act the songs out in the vaudeville style that was done at the time. Probably one of the best compliments I received from someone who reviewed the Tv show I was on, and which is the source of this clip, said my performance was hopelessly dated and corny. Tells me a did an authentic job.
