Sammy Davis Jr with what I think is the best performance of Mr Bojangles.

I have removed my apology for the 'squiggly subtitles' because it seemed to upset a couple of people who thought I was being disrespectful. It was more to point out my lack of understanding of Japanese writing, rather than to criticise it in any way. I am sorry if it caused offence.

  • Mr. Bojangles was of ARYAN descent, not of Negroid heritage...

  • @AmericanSoldierSS The Bojangles in this song wasn't called Bojangles... it was a nickname, apparently. O'course, we know about Bill Robinson....

  • Who are the 6 morons who voted dislike?

  • @tonyocch1 6 people who didn't like either the vid or the song.. not necessarily morons. Each to their own.

  • I'm 53 and grew up watching Sammy, Frank etc on TV I also remember enjoying them but still preferring to hear the pop/rock on the radio of the 70's. When I was in my late 20's I found Tony Bennett which lead me back to Sammy and the rest. THAT, people, was talent! I'm a Sinatra freak but I miss, truly miss seeing Sammy. How grand it would be to see him on a serious talk show talking about todays music & talent. Not putting it down,just telling what he liked.

  • @adiedo Have a look at this >> Sammy Davis Jr. sings Michael Jackson's Bad (1989) << You could never say he was trapped in his own little time capsule. Copy & paste into YT search box and enjoy :o)

  • Arguably the greatest entertainer that ever lived. Singer,dancer, actor, player of musical instruements, side arm quick draw competitor. This man could electrify a huge crowd just by showing up. My favorite all around entertainer,..... and his "Bojangles" is just one of the many reasons why!!

  • what a dumb ass

  • @rbh1138 Miss-use?! I don't know who in the hell she is but maybe she can teach you some basic grammar and spelling. Some other terms for you to Google: orthognathic, prognathic,Streptococcus mutans,proteome.

  • @herbertchapmansgh0st Miss-use of a Big Lebowski reference. >>thumbs down

  • @AmericanSoldierSS Yeah no such thing you human paraquat! Something called the human genome project. It's the 21st century btw.

  • Its a pity that such a wonderful song allows comments like the silly ones before mine.
