Patty, Maxine and Laverne. Patty is the lead. Always a cut-up

[@RickTBL]

"Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree With Anyone Else But Me." Another good one by the Andrews Sisters.

[@JB-Deadskins]

Good request, I totally forgot that one

[@reallymysterious4520]

That's my fav of theirs !!!

[@theresagomez2605]

Nice one!

[@jollyjohnthepirate3168]

Especially when Glenn Miller's band played it for them.

[@eljoh]

Anything from the 2 CD set of all recordings of Andrew Sisters with Bing Crosby. Great stuff. Plus some fun outtakes.

[@johndalessandro6433]

During the war, everyone did thier part to support the war effort. These gals did alot to build morale for the troops. This was the rock & roll of the day. They where in movies also. Very talented.

[@gl15col]

They were super famous for a reason; talented, hard working, and full of energy.

[@janetschmitt6760]

No matter how many times heard, this one always brings a smile.

[@theresagomez2605]

....as I watch with a HUGE grin on my face! 😂

[@astroworfcraig9164]

Harmony so tight it can only be sung by family.

[@karjens41]

So many people have tried to cover this, including Midler and none of them capture the pure harmonies, the passion and the soul of these ladies IMO.

[@gregpeterson4348]

This is the music that got us through WWII.

[@mso4433]

A bugle is like a trumpet without the valves. The bugle player in the military plays his bugle to wake up the troops and put them to sleep. Thanks for sharing. Love The Andrews Sisters. RIP.

[@aerynoftalyn1307]

It just doesn't get better than this! The talent! The way they are in complete harmony and their movements totally synchronized!

[@paulsmith8510]

They actually modeled their whole vocals and harmonies to sound like trumpets. Thats what made them stand out. Plus their harmonies are perfect.

[@shibolinemress8913]

This song is about 80 years old, and still catchy. The epitome of classic!

[@LoisChisholm]

The Andrews Sisters were the best of the sister groups of that era. Fabulous entertainers with great harmonies.

[@jnagarya519]

"The Andrews Sisters" were the soundtrack for WW II. They OUTSOLD "The Supremes" in record sales. They had plentiful HITS. They kicked ass -- they ROCKED.

[@karinfichtner7479]

My momma had this old 78rpm record, and I think I wore it out playing it. I was 9, 10 years old, and I knew all the words, and used to sing it in front of my mirror using my hairbrush for a mike.😂 My daddy taught me how to dance with this music. The Mcguire Sisters were great, too.

[@johnc.195]

A great one, still rocks today. Wonderful lyrics too. Thanks for sharing your reaction.

[@jayestahnke9917]

They started out imitating the Boswell Sisters, who were musical rebels and innovators in the 1930s. You should try the Boswell's "Heebie Jeebies" or "Crazy People."

[@JanBear]

Love the Boswell Sisters. They’ll make you dizzy with their harmonies and their quick lyrics.

[@jayestahnke9917]

@JanBear. The Boswells are on my playlist. Connee was a masterful arranger.

[@coinneachmaclellan3121]

Connee Boswell was a big influence on Ella Fitzgerald...

[@jayestahnke9917]

@coinneachmaclellan3121 I've read that early in her career Ella tried to sound like Connee. She's worth imitating.

[@elainemarsh5170]

My favorite from them is Bei Mir Bist Du Schon. The harmonies are off the chain crazy good.

[@b42baritone]

That song was so popular that even Nazi Germany liked it. Until they found out it was written by a Jewish songwriter!!

[@dlind1985]

Oh, I forgat that one! Their best ever! *_"Bei Mir Bist Du Schon"_*

[@aliciahager2961]

The good ol' days of music! We owe a debt to all of our music from the great American Songbook! Thanks for reviewing this one!

[@ScottPattison-xz9su]

The way she can roll her voice,to where it sounds like her throat is full of flem and sound clear in the next line of the song is magic,took me years to learn that trick. She makes it look easy,I can tell you it aint.

[@OhArchie]

Honestly, Harri, this rabbit hole is some of the best stuff to which you've reacted. Lots of fun to watch!

[@bluelionvintage8134]

YES!!!!!!

[@jotham777]

You’re one of my favorite reactors, sir. A class act. Love your channel.

[@reallymysterious4520]

YES - Harri is pure class yet down to earth and a heart of gold

[@marybaillie8907]

From 1941, this is an early example of jump blues and one of the most ironic songs from WW 2. Introduced in the Abbott abd Costello movie, "Buck Privates" story of a trumpeter from Chicago who was drafted into the war and was disliked because of the 5 am reveille wake up call. All the Andrew sister's songs had the heavenly harmonies and their novelty hits had trademark lightening quick vocal syncopations. Their sound was brassy and rambunctious, along with the wonderful choreography and big band addition, they sold over 80 million records. A joyous time in music. Fabulous Harri, I'm loving your excitement. ❤️ Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

[@kevinhouse4376]

Actually, the film's title was "Buck Privates."

[@ploppill34]

This👍

[@marybaillie8907]

​@@kevinhouse4376Thanks. 👍✌️🎶🇨🇦

[@landenchantment]

Contrast to big WWII songs in England like "White Cliffs of Dover" and "We'll Meet Again"

[@iTsEfFiNsTePhh]

This was my grandma's favorite song and favorite musical group so anytime The Andrews Sisters are mentioned or one of their songs plays especially this one I immediately think of her ❤️ Sadly she passed away when I was still a kid so I wasn't lucky enough to form a lot of memories with her but the ones I do have are that much more special 🥹 Funny story I actually have a gift I gave her when I was little it's plastic flowers in a plastic flower pot that plays this song and the flowers move when you press a button haha it's another very cherished memory and item I have of hers. Thanks for reacting to this song meant a lot to me truly 😊

[@faydriahenderson9392]

This one never gets old. Love it. 😄👍

[@ericarachel55]

I never get tired of this gem!

[@timmholl9238]

Never! It's so timeless!

[@brianadams4630]

Some of the best in the business right there.

[@MB-pw9mf]

This was great. I loved it It proves there were great singers in the 40s. Also 3 nice looking woman in one family and very good singers, so blessed!

[@caseyb4425]

I fell in love with these ladies when they first performed on an Abbott and Costello movie. Wonderful talent all the way around.

[@MrsHornesgdnm]

My dad had a huge music collection from the 1920's to the 1970's + ... when he passed away in 2019, I kept his music to remember him. He used to sing a lot of those songs when we were growing up in the 1960's to 1970's... and again when my son was born. He also used to sing in a local Barbershop Harmony Quartet in the 1980's-1990's... now when I listen to those CD's, I can hear him singing along... I sure do miss him! This song was one of his favorites... 😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@reallymysterious4520]

Somebody throw us some carrots - I'm staying down here in this rabbit hole with Harri !!!

[@Hildred6]

Their talent is extraordinary 🎶♥️

[@hollypinkley]

my parents loved them!! My dad served in WWII & always played theri records!!! I learned harmony singing along with them back in the 60's!!!!! This is from the movie Buck Privates or Stage Door Canteen or even both!!!

[@spawn4582]

These girls are definitely talented

[@Janadu]

My dad and mom were "swing cats". I grew up with this music in our house. I love the Big Band sound!

[@ramonalfaro3252]

Crazy that this still slaps after all these years.

[@kurtb8474]

I listened to rock radio in the 70s. They were still playing this song on the station.

[@dlind1985]

First time _seeing_ them! Though listened a thousand times. This is and was my father's and my kind of music! (Today it's Tommy Johansson and the likes)

[@KidBklyn]

They were so great, the Andrew Sisters. Great harmony. Better Midler did a cover of Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy Of Company B. She did an excellent job. React to that if you can. You won't be disappointed.

[@that44rdv4rk]

Lots of my grandparents' music lately... and I ain't young. I'm here for it, though. another good Andrews Sisters tune is "Civilization" featuring Danny Kaye.

[@karenpowell6063]

Great old music , thank you for sharing 👍👏

[@johnthegreek5836]

This song is before my time but I definitely could listen to this every day

[@johntiggleman4686]

Harri I am so glad you have been reviewing Big Band/Swing music. Thanks.

[@davidmckenzie420]

A major song from that era! (And a high school friend's father was their business manager.)

[@kevinhouse4376]

Harri, thank you so much for doing this deep dive into the music of the '40s. I was born in '62, but I've always loved the music from this era. Another of my favorite Andrews Sisters songs is "I'll Be With You in Apple Blossom Time," a really beautiful ballad.

[@StefanEngler-rb8lu]

As a little kid watching Abbott and Costello movies I was first introduced to the Andrew Sisters. I think this might’ve been from their movie Buck Privates. Fantastic 🤘

[@Dobrulez70]

These ladies could really set it off

[@jeaniejoseph940]

"Rum and Coca-Cola" is a fun one of theirs.

[@bzGNR]

Great reaction to great music. I always enjoy your reactions. Thanks, Harry!

[@dsusan17]

Wonderful harmonies! Pure talent! Great reaction Harri

[@rodneysisco6364]

For me , this was their best . Great stuff

[@jimbennett1519]

Fantastic such talent and energy

[@ursulabklyn_mia6148]

I know them from watching old Abbot and Costello movies when I was a kid.

[@garynorred4643]

@ursulabklyn_mia6148 Exactly! Buck Privates?

[@StefanEngler-rb8lu]

Yes, Buck Privates. @@garynorred4643

[@larrydewein]

Yea, this is a classic with them! I grew up with them being born in 1940!!

[@ThistleAndSea]

Yes! So much fun! Thanks for sharing this one, Harri. 🙂

[@gerardcote8391]

This song clip is from the 1941 Abbott and Costello film Buck Privates.

[@_JimS]

That was released in 1941 on a 10" 78rpm record, the beginning of WW2.

[@donnabailey8983]

❤️🤍💙 love it , keep it going I’m enjoying the ride with you.

[@robertfuller5665]

I have been a viewer of your channel for while and I love this deep dive into older music. The three of four that I've seen you react to are all in my personal collection. just great music!

[@Fast_Eddy_Magic]

It looks like even the camera man was bopping with them a little. 😁

[@timgrady4630]

Pure Delight , Harri .

[@garykephart]

The Andrew Sisters were amazing! Thanks for reacting to them. They've got other hits. (via ReacTrax)

[@b42baritone]

The Andrews Sisters were so big at that time, that a lot of Big Bands refuse to be on the same marquee with them. Knowing that they will be second bill. They say that the Andrews Sisters were Americans secret weapon during WW2.

[@gypsygirl3255]

Harlem Nocturne by the Ray Noble Orchestra

[@gramps6334]

I think that's from the movie "Hollywood Cantine" from 1941 or 42. The movie is full of big stars and songs of the day.

[@cherylsims5636]

Oh Hari you had me rolling on the floor before the song stated... You said ""Bug le""............it's "Bue glue"" (as best as I can attempt to correct pronunciation) This was a Big World War II Song.

[@RoryVanucchi]

Andrew sisters did another classic swing called Bounce Me Brother with a Solid Four. Also a video clip circa 1941

[@florencewagner7237]

You have fantastic taste in music.

[@farmerbill6855]

Considering the time frame, I suspect those were honest to goodness real life soldiers in the crowd. Lord knows there was no shortage of them then. The Andrews sisters were quite the patriots.

[@trubowspiritwind]

Best part is those soldiers were probably real WW2 soldiers. They did a lot of filming in England.

[@byrontowles2018]

Harri - Betty Hutton, "Murder, He Says". You'll love her!

[@VideoSaySo]

Want to know the dirty stuff our great grandparents were listening to? Look up a singer named Lucille Bogan...Start with her delightfully vulgar story songs and it'll lead you down the path of stuff that will have you howling with laughter for hours! You might not want to share here, but you'll be telling friends to check it out! They were WILD in the 1920's!

[@mkshffr4936]

A few years later the Lennon Sisters did similar tight harmonies.

[@AmatureAstronomer]

Always liked this song!

[@corralescoyote3360]

Hey Bestie, I would LOVE to hear what you think of Louis Jordan… he’s boogie, jump, swing… lots of fun tunes, Banana Split for my Baby is great to start with.. or Knock me a Kiss 😊

[@pooldude317]

This is from the Abbott & Costello film 'Buck Privates' It was one of the team's best, it came out just a few months before the war (1941) and was a big tool in recruiting. Do your self a favor and watch the whole film, not for reaction but for your own enjoyment...

[@garyneilson3075]

You said it Harri!!!

[@33Keith33]

Another Andrews Sisters favorite is “Rum and Coca Cola”. Check it out.

[@justwondering5651]

You reacted to Benny Goodman's Sing Sing Sing. Now you need to listen to the Andrews Sisters sing it.

[@angelamiller6275]

Absolutely LOVE this!!❤

[@ericjanssen394]

The word “Icon” is tragically misused these days, but if you want to know what it truly means, the Andrews Sisters in WAC costumes singing BBWB is one of history’s 1940’s ICONS of WWII. The clip, btw, is from when they premiered the song in Abbott & Costello’s comedy “Buck Privates”, for those just discovering A&C.

[@MelanieAF]

If you love this-and you should lol-you have got to see the Ross Sisters doing their stuff to “Solud Potato Salad”, it will freak you out!

[@rufscooby1]

amazing how they got it one take

[@williamkidney6031]

I've liked these gals for a long time now even though they're well before my time, lot of good songs. This video is from an Abbott and Costello movie called Buck privates, tho it looks like someone recorded it off their phone as it's not real steady, the movie isn't like that

[@JulieS261]

A great song you can listen to is "Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive" by Bing Crosby and the Andrews Sisters. Also, another great song is "Jingle Jangle Jingle" by Kay Kyser.

[@randywest7252]

Love the rabbit hole you have went down. Give Harry James a spin.He was big in the 40's.

[@corawheeler9355]

Reminds me of the Pointer Sisters. Look for their song, Fairytale

[@markalumbaugh2756]

Most Military use Bugles for a variety of reasons (Reveilee, Taps, Charge, Recall, etc) A Bugle, unlike a Trumpet has no valves. Therefore a Bugle can only hit 5 notes,

[@tcfolstrom599]

When women cared for something’s and others more than themselves

[@johnnehrich9601]

I love '40's music but the Andrew Sisters singing the songs are over the top.

[@randybailey7115]

You should give a listen to Bette Midler's version, it was her first hit

[@user-sx7wo1yl7y]

BEW-GULL!!!!! You never heard of a bugle???

[@HelynnHeels]

💖💖💖

[@gerardcote8391]

The main singer is Maxime.

[@gerardcote8391]

If you like this style do Joe Satriani Satch Boogie, it's from the 1980s and is an instrumental but musically it is this same style.

[@paulelletson99]

👍👍👍

[@philiponcale1820]

How about that swingin' three part harmony?

[@The5thGen]

Where’s Andrew?

[@billolsen4360]

The Andrews Sisters were hot.

[@Knight_Marshal]

The things people could do back then without auto tune or synthesizers. Today's music has lost a lot of it's soul.
