Shirley Ellis -The Clapping Song (1965)
In This video I have the characters having trouble understanding The lyrics of the song. "The Clapping Song" is an American song, written by Lincoln Chase, originally arranged by Charles Callello and recorded by Shirley Ellis in 1965. The song was released shortly after Ellis had released "The Name Game". The lyrics of "The Clapping Song" were borrowed from the song "Little Rubber Dolly", a 1930s song recorded by the Light Crust Doughboys, and also feature instructions for a clapping game. The song sold over a million copies and peaked at #8(US) & #6 (UK). The song returned to the charts in 1982, when the Belle Stars' version charted at number 11 in the U.K. This version did not chart in the U.S. though a version by Pia Zadora charted there at number 36 in 1983. Footage is from "Bad Lieutenant"The 1992 American neo-noir crime drama film directed by Abel Ferrara. The film stars Harvey Keitel , and Footage also from The Sci Fi Series" L5". (source Wikipedia)
