As Mr. Waring told me, they, "became famous because we took everything twice as fast as everyone else..." and, having played and sung some of those arrangements when I toured with him I can attest to the speed on almost everything - blinding! Leonard and Robert sound great here.

@mcgarig1 you took my comment waaaaaaaaaay too seriously. Just saying the way they act and look at each other in this one video is weird compared to nowadays. It wasn't a judgement of all people from then, it wasn't even a very serious comment. Nothing to do with truth, phoniness, loving fellow man or saying anyone is better than anyone else. Lighten-up and laugh!

this song makes me happy

People "in those days" were "people as they are in these days", but these days people are afraid of the truth, about themselves and everyone else. In "those days" we insisted on the truth, in everything, and if anything wasn't true it showed itself for the lie that it was.
We say people acted weird in those days but it is us in these days, who are really weird because we are so afraid and afar from the truth. In those days a father would say "I love my fellow man" to anyone

Hey those guys singing, Leonard & Robert Kranendonk, are
Father & Son! Is that cool or what?
No wonder you can tell they love each other.
Leonard, (Dad) lived to age 99 and was still singing, and
Robert is doing good at 82- OUTSTANDING!

Those 2 guys definitely have something going on.
You can see it even if it IS black & white.
Sorry for the teasing but this is great music that
boosts morale & lifts the spirit.
Man do we EVER need songs & singers like
these today! Loved this song since I first heard
it back in '54. (It sounded great thru the radio
speaker of a '49 Packard).
haha people acted weird in those days
