I grew up with Day-O not only from this and Beetlejuice, but from Sebastian the Crab's Carribean Jamboree, Muppets, and Kidsongs. Too bad they can't make songs like this anymore. We unfortunately have to live with torture in music Lady Gaga, Katy perry, Ke$ha, Eminem, Bieber, LMFAO, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne, Wiz Khalifa, Kid Cudi, Adele, and Maroon 5. This is real music.

Fabulous! According to a 1999 interview with Freberg, the guitarist on this track was Glen Campbell !!

A very special short for me, from an all too brief time with a very special lady. Seeing it is like going back to visit that wonderful time, thanks a million for posting it!

WOW I turned into an instant kid..... this brought me right back... thanks for creating this site and thanks for the original animation... this is a pure classic

@paulfrankglickman I love this clip! I remember it from the old Great Space Coaster tv show. Please do upload a clean version. I'm checking out your videos now.

I love this! I remember Stan Freberg from when I was a kid too. I liked him then, but listening to him now, I find him strident. The animation softens that. By putting him visually right into the song, he is made an insider.
Isn't it lucky Mr. Glickman was watching YouTube.

I totally agree and look forward to something that is even better!
I loved this animation - Freberg alone is too strident for me - very sweet.

i love it
liviuarh, I'm Paul Glickman the creator of the Calypso Singer. I was happy to see it on the internet, but as you must know it's a copy shot from a 16mm projection. It's a shadow of it's real look and sound. But you've inspired me. I am going to go back to the 35mm master and try to do a top notch HD version. I'll let you know when I've posted it (probably months from now) But I hope at that time you'll withdraw your posting so the clean version gets to be seen and I, the creator, get the credit.

@paulfrankglickman It’s a pleasure to hear from you.
I would be more than happy to see this clip in a HD format. It’s a brilliant work and as you can see for yourself many appreciate it.
I do not intend to take any credit for anybody’s work.
No question about it, I will make way for the “clean”version of “The Calypso Singer”.
All I can say is… Thank You for creating this.
