.....para nosotros ahora.....ahora todo tiene aspecto de mala hostia......cuando antes todo era aspecto de felicidad y belleza......la segunda guerra mundial nos destrozo.....y la iglesia hace su caja de caudales a raudales..aun con menos curas...pero mas marketing....empresas arraigadas -
COMING FROM THE AGE OF 3 STOOGES...

I'm surprised they don't have comedic big teeth due to the age period.

I love this tenor's voice. :) Too bad this
type of singing style went out of fashion in the middle of the 1930's.
This clip seems to be taken from a short. The number is originally from "Lord Byron of Broadway" and the number is more complete on the original film with James Burroughs (the tenor) singing the whole song once at the beginning and then the orchestra starts playing where this clip picks up. This clip also cuts off a bit from the end..

So lovely to see this wonderful number again! Thank you.
I love this time frame. The great musicals of the late 20's and 30's are incredible. Too bad this type of entertainment has been replaced with reality tv and nonsense of today.

By some, this might also be considered nonsense, but unlike the crap produced today, it is WONDERFUL nonsense. "A bit of nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men".
