My dad and I would always listen to Harry Nilsson songs when I was growing up and Coconut was one of our favorites. I regret not listening it to it with him more often before he got sick and passed away. I miss you dad

My memory of this song: I was working as a janitor in a large factory back around 1972 when this song was getting air play; now the factory at that time had around 400 people working, and at least 80% had their radios tuned to one radio station. Well, this song came on, all the radios got turned up...what a sound! The whole album is excellent. Harry really rocks it with "Jump Into The Fire."

Cause the song actually grows as it's played through, unlike songs that attempt repetition now, it's completely stale and doesn't go anywhere. There are some songs now that can still do this, but most popular songs will fail.

Just a few minutes ago, Reservoir Dogs taught me me a valuable lesson in filmmaking and storytelling. Out of the art of filmmaking, I always appreciated the art of the ending. There’s so many different ways to end off a film. Reservoir Dogs opened my eyes to a brand new way. Such a pessimistic ending only for it to freeze on a immobile shot and then suddenly “Written and Directed by Quentin Tarantino” without a single breath before those words appear on screen and this song immediately starts playing. So incredible and impactful, especially with this song. So, new lesson in filmmaking. Such an abrupt end credit roll on such a crazy ending where we leave off on a singular shot like that. Something so simplistic like this can be just as impactful, especially if the music enhances it like this. Bravo, Tarantino.

Try enjoying it in yet another dimension: This year (2024) for National Pie Day (23 January) I made a "Lime Under Coconut" pie to take to work. Lime custard on the bottom; white chocolate mousse loaded with coconut on top. So working late tonight, a few nights later, I brought a slice with me back to my desk and queued up this video. Kind of makes you forget it's winter for a few minutes.

Aaah yes ! I heard this song on a jukebox, in a dinner, in that small mountain town. Two old dudes were arguing over the song, and people were a bit strange, but the coffee was good, and the waitress was a nice young woman. I wouldn't recommand the bathroom at that place though. There was no light, and it felt very, very... dark.

This guy was a massive talent... songwriter, producer, musician and especially singer. As others have stated he was friends with and highly respected by the Beatles, the Who, Dustin Hoffman ...and many others. His version of the Badfinger song Without You still gives me chills.

The first time I heard this song, it was from my dad singing it after having a couple margaritas. My first thought was that he was making it up on the fly. My second thought was that it was one of the funniest things I had heard in my life up until that point.

Lyrics: Brother bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime, His sister had another one she paid it for the lime. She put the lime in the coconut, she drank 'em bot' up She put the lime in the coconut, she drank 'em bot' up. She put the lime in the coconut, she drank 'em bot' up She put the lime in the coconut, she call the doctor, woke 'I'm up, Said "doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take?" I said "Doctor, to relieve this belly ache," I said "Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take?" I said "Doctor, to relieve this belly ache." Now lemme get this straight, You put the lime in the coconut, you drank 'em bot' up, You put the lime in the coconut, you drank 'em bot' up, You put the lime in the coconut, you drank 'em bot'up, You put the lime in the coconut, you call your doctor, woke 'I'm up, Said " Doctor, ain't there nothing' I can take?" I said, "Doctor, to relieve this belly ache." I said "Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take?' I said, "Doctor, to relieve this belly ache," You put the lime in the coconut, you drink 'em bot' togedther Put the lime in the coconut and you'll feel better, Put the lime in the coconut, drink 'em bot' up, Put the lime in the coconut and call me in the morning." Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo. Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo. Brother bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime, His sister had another one she paid it for a lime.

You're such a silly woman. Put a lime in the coconut and drink 'em bot' together Put the lime in the coconut, then you'll feel better. Put the lime in the coconut, drink 'em both down, Put the lime in your coconut, and call me in the morning, Woo--ain't there nothin' you can take? I say, woo--to relieve your belly ache, You say, well woo--ain't there nothin' I can take?
