Max Raabe mit Palast Orchester - Bongo bong

[@SuperBullyone]

I think the band is completely outstanding; the clarity of each instrument and each sound and overall complexity - or orchestration or choreography of the music - whatever the correct term it. This band is great too.

[@bettythebutcher]

Agreed. And the word you were searching years ago was probably arrangement :)

[@philipschulze2.070]

The Palace Orchestra is awesome

[@brianblessedismyhero]

This man can turn even a silly tune into a masterpiece... Praise to his irony and talent! PURE GENIUS!!!

[@federicoangelobisceglia]

There is an irony in how you call a "silly tune" the masterpiece that is the original song: an expressionist beautiful metaphor for the need of self love in face of oppression, with the most clear specific remark on how the big city undervalues(dont go crazy) for the beats of the monkey's bongo. All a reference to his experience as an immigrant in europe. Because to you the masterpiece is the version with the conventional traditional european style, the version without the monkey's bongo...

[@federicoangelobisceglia]

Before you even think that, no im not calling you racist or xenophobic, i really like Max Raabe too and u can still prefer it to the original, im just pointing out the genunenly hilarious irony of your statement on this song, its sort of an inception moment if you catch what im saying.

[@mandyschuer3044]

Max ! There is nobody singing like you ; and I love you for it.

[@heikehoppner8149]

Es gibt Künstler die ich auf unseren Planeten nicht missen möchte, dieser gehört dazu.

[@reinholdmaximilian214]

Gentleman sind selten. Raabe ist einer davon. Einfach klasse Musik.

[@ViscountSinistere]

[@donbovie]

Agreed

[@lbeu1]

I LOVE it when he says "baby"

[@Anna-yx4ei]

don't we all?

[@dogwelder2]

I love it when he says "banging on my boogie".

[@DavidWilliams-zq2nz]

Wow , love this dude, he is super cool and we love his look, his voice smooth as silk and his orchestra is fabulous!! We are most surprised that not more people know of him, or maybe that is just here in the U.S. using the number of views etc., wish he was doing more today, 2018!!! Come on Max where are you man!!??

[@bohungham]

Mama was queen of the mambo Papa was king of the Congo Deep down in the jungle I started bangin' my first bongo Every monkey like to be In my place instead of me 'Cause I'm the king of bongo, baby I'm the king of bongo bong I went to the big town Where there is a lot of sound From the jungle to the city Looking for a bigger crown So I play my boogie For the people of big city But they don't go crazy When I'm bangin' in my boogie I'm the "king of the bongo, king of the bongo bong" Hear me when I come, baby King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong Nobody like to be in my place instead of me 'Cause nobody go crazy when I'm bangin' on my boogie I'm a king without a crown Hanging loose in a big town But I'm the king of bongo, baby I'm the king of bongo bong Hear me when I come, baby (King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong) Hear me when I come They say that I'm a clown Making too much dirty sound They say there is no place for little monkey in this town Nobody'd like to be in my place instead of me 'Cause nobody go crazy when I'm bangin' on my boogie I'm the Hear me when I come, baby (King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong) Hear me when I come Bangin' on my bongo all that swing belongs to me I'm so happy there's nobody in my place instead of me I'm a king without a crown Hanging loose in a big town I'm the king of bongo, baby I'm the king of bongo bong Hear me when I come, baby (King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong) Hear me when I come Mama was queen of the mambo Papa was king of the Congo Deep down in the jungle I start bangin' my first bongo Every monkey like to be In my place instead of me 'Cause I'm the king of bongo, baby I'm the king of bongo bong Hear me when I come Hear me when I come, baby Hear me when I come

[@gogatbilisigeorgia]

[@levasfilm]

BERT CALLENBACH - ALLES SCHLECHTE ZUM GEBURTSTAG (OFFIZIELLES VIDEO) das erinnert mich an den fantastischen bert callenbach aus leipzig! großartige musik;)

[@janirikhard4881]

Damn! What a version! Danke schön!

[@marias9141]

This is the best interpretation I've ever heard of this song. It is much deeper than it sounded. Genial!

[@corinam.2633]

Max, you truly are the greatest.

[@laidback08]

Heard this song on the radio the other day and had to laugh a lot. Great transition ;)

[@eOlRaNcH1]

this is almost a masterpiece

[@noel03101954]

Beyond awesome!

[@gregorheinrich]

Original version is credited to Roy Eldridge (1937...) , even if he never made a studio recording of this song

[@bandplop]

Erste Allgemeine Verunsicherung - klingt fast genau so - einfach Genial dieser Herr Max Rabe.

[@Tark75ifty]

Premiere fois que j'entend cette version,et je la trouve tres reussi!

[@thornie123]

I thought I heard it all when he covered Oops I did it again. But now this is a whole other level lol. Max Raabe is amazing. Much better than the original.

[@ted9030]

do you know any similar artists

[@человек-ц5д1г]

Браво!!,

[@MatteV93]

I am fascinated

[@blackswan666ful]

Very Classic!!!!

[@luismaldonadocl]

I looove it

[@Annelise-gs3mj]

Einfach wunderbar!

[@tydlifuk]

It happens occasionally that a cover version is better than original song. And that's exactly what happened here. :-)

[@elizabethmacmillan8208]

Yeah you're right

[@antoningilbert1615]

I still think the manu chao version was better

[@romanemul1]

manu version is better.

[@ted9030]

i like this one more because of the trumpet

[@thefabulousmark]

The image accompanying the video is of Louise Brooks flapper extrodinaire!

[@EliyNeverhood]

Wooooow

[@speedy6719]

Top Max Raabe... I am King of Bongo😂🎉

[@win7sony]

I actually prefer this to Manu Chao, the original. Max Raabe is one of the best musicians of the modern day.

[@davidzof]

I thought Roy Eldridge was the original, Manu Chao was a cover.

[@irenairenas7452]

Bll

[@Perktube1]

I'd like to hear him do a cover of "One Night in Bangkok"

[@kotence]

[@Yvettsonglala]

[@bigpapapeter]

Kein Schnösel! Er spiegelt eine Zeit wieder und dem entsprechend ist auch die Musik eher schlicht.

[@JollyJohanna]

@teratakaimixanes2 No.

[@drahrebe1709]

und das nun im verständlichen Deutsch

[@elgringolocoakaerzstaatsfe6859]

das heisst -Mama was king of the Mambo- und nicht -Mama was king of the mango- ich kenne Manu Chao´s texte fast schon auswendig & dieser Gute Songs-verhunzer ist mir gar nicht sympathisch. der Sound ist ebenfalls nicht das wahre! swing ist einfach nicht mit jedem song kompatibel! -__-

[@Bigjongdonglongrong]

Manuel Ramón Mein minderbemännlichtes mösengesicht, mir scheint ihr Verhältnis zu konstruktiver Kritik(!) Sei kein Gutes. Ausserdem ist ihr Vater ihre Mutter und vice versa. Und sie sind blöd und stinken nach kuhpups HA!

[@elgringolocoakaerzstaatsfe6859]

Ich meine, dem das seine oder? hör von mir aus teletubby-& Bibi Blocksberg-intros, mich interessiert nicht ob du drauf abwichst, deine plüschtiere vergewaltigst oder was du auch sonst so machst wenn dir langweilig ist, wenn du von deiner Mutti stubenarest bekommst! Ô_õ Viel Spass dabei & jetzt verpiss dich!

[@ipetersson]

Ihr Sprachgefühl und Ihre Liebe zur deutschen Sprache hat Sie nach oben gebracht. Ziehen Sie es nun vor, mit dem Englischen nach v o r n e im Mainstream zu kommen? Haben Sie keinen guten Übersetzer? Falls Sie das peinlich finden, denken Sie an unseren großen Herder, der sich nicht zu schade war, 'Die Stimmen der Völker in Liedern' zu übersetzen und dadurch zu einem großen internationalen Schatz zu machen.

[@soldatnrvier5816]

Wo liegt das Problem darin seinen Horizont zu erweitern

[@amberbaum4079]

Was für ein Quatsch. Max und das Palast Ochester kamen mal auf die Idee ein Album mit moderne bekannten Liedern in dem Stil der 1920 zu machen. Bis jetzt hat er immer im Original gesungen und nur wenige Lieder eingedeutscht. Ich denke es wäre hier nicht klug gewesen diese Texte einzudeutschen. Das hätte den ganzen Sinn moderne englische Lieder zu singen zunichte gemacht da nun mal die Sprache sehr wichtig ist. Er wird immer noch Lieder auf Deutsch singen. Ich weiß daher nicht was ihr Problem ist.

[@cabdrivingcat5535]

Irmtraut Petersson Boah nee, nicht schon wieder die deutsche Sprache usw, usw, usf, verteidigen. Das ist Kunst und Max Raabe ist KÜNSTLER. Gott sei Dank bedeutet das inzwischen, auch in Deutschland, schon lang wieder, die Freiheit, sich auszudrücken wie man will. Wenn überhaupt, sollte man verteidigen.
