Time For A Flashback

A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.

Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

I saw the title and the performer and completely did not recognize either. And then I started playing it -- wow, yes, I remember that song!

Thanks for making me feel old. :D:

I remember the tune but I don't recall it having the same lyrics. I sort of remember it being in a Bugs Bunny cartoon and it was a bit of a mocking song.

I found that the "Playmates" song was plagiarized from this other song. Listen at the 57 second mark.

most were at that timw. Tiny Tim, aka Herb, used to spend hours in the public library looking for stuff to base his music on.
guess where he got the idea for tiptoe thru the tulips?

I was born in 1948 and I remember the chorus completely, but the rest I don't recall at all. I think they used to play it on the radio a lot when I was a kid. Damn I'm old.

:old:
