Nope, Martha Raye and Bob Hope at 5:01 won that shit. Cracked my crap up.
But all of them remind me how woefully untalented and lame everyone is nowadays.

Same reaction here-which lead to some interesting and uplifting reading about Al Jolson on (where else) wikipedia. You'll feel better about it after reading it, I think.
Thanks for all the kind words on my compilation - it was a lot of work! There's good source material stating that that was Marilyn singing in "The Prince and the Showgirl" - and Rex does sing a number of lines. As to the blackface, I had to include Jolson (who sang live all the time) but all the live clips were blackface! Didn't know about Popeye - I'll check it out. I'm also sad that I missed Betty Hutton doing "Arthur Murray Taught Me Dancing in a Hurry"!
Please wait...
and remember to be decent to everyone all of the time.
Also, that way extraordinarily gay.

Lovely to see all these people again.
