Cheeseburger in Paradise Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 no idea 856148[/snapback] Yes, sung by the inestimable "Buddy" Hackett, in one of his only (I hope) singing roles in film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartshan-83 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 It's from the Music Man. My highschool did the production one year...I remember watching and thinking it was the worst 3 hours of my life. I can still picture this one goofy kid that was a few years older than me singing the lead in Shipoopi and dancing like an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can find them in many of the older musicals (like Carousel's "This Was A Real Nice Clambake" or Brigadoon's "I'll Go Home With Mary Jean"). I have no idea why I know this. Songs like that are the reason people joke these days with the whole "I think I feel a song coming on." In fact, what made it so funny in the "Family Guy" skit is that that is exactly what they were going for by having him break into song, and it was pretty damn funny.

Act 1 is hilarious as hell, but thanks to Buddy, I can never stick around long enough to see if Robert Preston ever learns his lesson enough to tap that Mrs. Partridge.
