Friday Videos Like Irving Berlin

I’m going to need to make a logo for Friday Videos, huh? Suggestions welcome!

This week’s Friday Video comes from Varian via the podcast Patreon Discord, and when I say I sent to everyone I know, I mean every person I could think of.

Please welcome Lizzy and the Triggermen performing Irving Berlin’s 1941 chart, “When That Man is Dead and Gone.”

You’ll want the good speakers for this one.

I also found a recording from April 2, 1941 featuring Al Bowlly and Jimmy Mesene, “Radio Stars with Two Guitars.”

Glenn Miller and His Orchestra also recorded it, as did Mildred Bailey and The Delta Rhythm Boys.

I love the Mildred Bailey version. I think I’ve listened to it six times this hour.

Happy weekend, everyone, and enjoy the Bad Bunny concert!

And, speaking of, a bonus video!

For those who are in Canada, and especially for those who are still moving around all this snow concrete, please enjoy this parody of Bad Bunny’s “NUEVAYoL” by Carlos Bolivar: INVIELnO!

It’s in Spanish, but here’s the first verse translated (badly) by me:

“If you want to be depressed
with sadness and pain
you only have to live
a winter in Canada.

If you want to freeze
with sadness and pain
you only have to spend
a winter in Canada.”

May your snacks be excellent and may your toes be warm!

    One fine day the news will spread
    That the orange king is dead. . .

    Friday Videos: better and better!
    It is such a pleasure to learn what videos other people enjoying SBTB are enjoying. Youtube is vast, and I don’t always have a good idea of what to look for that I will enjoy.
    Thank you!!
