@Visonu If we only have foreseen this as children before of how epic those two would be having to play these characters! RIP Raul.

This is realy the song of the dog's. I love it.

[@grantcurry4839]

dog's? I think you mean dogs, don't you?

[@rfichokeofdestiny]

@@grantcurry4839 What’s the origin of the phrase? I’ve never heard it before.

Davy Jones and M. Bison!!!

[@trinelangohr6661]

Wow, the English lyrics sure are a lot cuter and cheerier than the German ones...

[@titanuranus3095]

There are variants that is less so.

The version on September songs for one. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZTQfqB-hrprmck

[@paperartillery3774]

Agreed, The 1976 revival cast (with Juliá) has much better, subtler translation work.

[@HeathsHarleyQuinn]

I mean, it's still pretty bad, but yeah the german original isn't terribly subtle. XD

[@chameleon9454]

Bill Nighy the best

[@graymoreghost]

Wow! I've never seen Bill Nighy in a scene from his younger days. Had no idea that was him. He sings! Is there anything Brits can't do?

[@NathanDavis508]

Beat America in a war?

OMG!!

[@JavertRA]

Makes me laugh that Bill Nighy's accent is identical to his "Davy Jones" voice. Does anyone have the soundtrack of this, I'd love to hear the song without the soudn effects but it's a bugger trying to track down the CD...

@JavertRA you can find cheap copies on Amazon

Kinda like 3 Penny meets Disney pirates.

@JavertRA I have the tape -

[@TheRenamay]

Kitsch!

[@zarquondam]

Pretty sure this is the CANNON Song, not the CANON Song. They're singing about war, not about canonisation. In other news, Raul Julia was in a MUCH BETTER adaptation of Threepenny Opera than this, not filmed alas, but you can get the soundtrack album.

The 1976 recording it not a 'soundtrack' (those are for movies) it's an original cast recording of that production and I agree it's excellent.

[@redberet5064]

I like the original more

1:36 Puerto Rican guy doing the Highland fling... mind blown...

[@mzmiller52]

How could they not let ellen Greene be in the movie. They did a terrible job of transferring this revival to film.

[@rodtandas8923]
