The Indiana Jones Trilogy - 16. Anything Goes [English Version] (BONUS TRACK)

[@ryanr.5158]

She puts emphasis on different words than I'm used to hearing, both in the original and in covers, but all in all still pretty great. The instruments make up for anything lacking in vocals.

I love this song Anything Goes the English Version and Chinese Version from Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom originally performed by Kate Capshaw that did Willie Scott But this is a different female person singing I sometimes sing this song Anything Goes in English and in Chinese from Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom doing the Tribute to Kate Capshaw and different people

[@serenatsukino999]

Hey dummy...Chinese isn't a language.

[@articusramos808]

It's close to 2023. Once more with feeling.

[@DKzain23]

it was slowed down because its in english, so it can match the tempo of the singer.

[@fatimaabeleda6730]

This gives me great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, GREAT memories as a little kid watching indiana jones movies over and over and even making a lego film of indiana jones. Such great times.

[@Celluloidkid]

wow...never knew this existed,....thanks for the post!!!!.

[@thechinadesk]

Kate Capshaw did a surprisingly good job on this. I have to say I much prefer this English version to the Pig Latin version she sang in the film. That was supposed to be Chinese. But I'm a native Chinese speaker and I couldn't make out a single word of hers!

[@Magitroopa]

That was Mandarin...

[@thechinadesk]

luigistar11 It wasn't any Mandarin I've ever heard, and I am a native speaker of Mandarin.

[@AQuietNight]

Bevin Chu You just didn't learn the right kind of Mandarin. Actually, the non-english version sounded like some odd German variant.

[@thechinadesk]

AQuietNight Yeah, that must be it. I didn't learn "the right kind of Mandarin."

[@leokatzeChen]

AQuietNight How about me, I'm Taiwanese, I can speak Chinese, Taiwanese, Cantonese, even a little bit Shanghainese.

[@AQuietNight]

Helen Hobson is the vocalist for this recording.

[@thechinadesk]

Was this dubbed? If so, Ms. Hobson (or whoever sang it) did a good job. I assumed it was Capshaw. Of course that could mean that whoever dubbed it was a talented mimic.

[@AQuietNight]

Bevin Chu I can't speak to Capshaw's singing ability but this album is independent of the movie production. Hobson gave it a nice breathy ending :)

[@thechinadesk]

AQuietNight It wouldn't be the first time, that's for sure. Opera soprano Marnie Nixon made a career of dubbing for Hollywood stars. Her ability to mimic the voices of Deborah Kerr and Rita Moreno among others was uncanny. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marni_Nixon

[@AQuietNight]

Bevin Chu Nixon was one of the most famous voices of a person no one ever knew. I found a soundtrack recording of this song and I listened closely. The poster said this was Cantonese. I think what the music director did was write the lyrics out such as "she see waa" to approximate the tongue but missed the fine points of the language. Sort of like Ni hao said as "knee how". Considering the ethic of the Indiana Jones series was based on the low budget B action movies of the 40's and 50's this technique would be fitting, as those films did cut corners. Even Capshaw's wobbly step when she returns to the Dragon mouth before the dissolve to the chorus line would be fitting. Someday I might get around to watching this movie.

[@thechinadesk]

AQuietNight Yes, that's what I meant by "Pidgin Chinese." The pronunciation was so inaccurate as to be unintelligible. There is such a thing as merely having an accent and there is such a thing as being so far off that the term "accent" no longer applies!

[@isaac000215]

Damn, I want to go back to the past (grandfather and father's era) after I listened this song. Those good old days...

Mandarin Chinese, in point of fact.

If the world had gone mad back then, it's even madder or crazier (since "madder" is not even a word or verb in the English language) now in this century.

[@jmcajr1978]

Better in bad mandarin ! LOL!

[@MajorMartian]

This is the modern lyrics. Not the ones that would have been used in the original 1930’s version. Sad

[@Hard_Boiled_Entertainment]

Alas, it's artistic license that HAD to be taken. The original version's filled with references to 1930's "current" events that would've gone over most viewers' heads.

[@starlightglimglam3559]

This is not even modern lyrics, it's the original Musical lyrics sang by Ethel Merman in 1934

[@MajorMartian]

StarlightGlimGlam sorry, I meant this is the version modern singers use. Cole porters original is different (gigolos is used instead of porter’s original line chateaus, etc). Also the “the world has gone mad today” is originally after “if driving fast cars you like”. I’m not sure when the change was made but this is most certainly not the original written lyrics.

[@starlightglimglam3559]

@@MajorMartian ah I understand. Though to me, I think it'd make more sense if they sing the hit 1934 broadway version that Porter later worked on.

[@crixxxxxxxxx]

@@MajorMartian The original song had several verses. Many included topical references to people and events in the 1930s that later would be lost on listeners in the decades to follow. Because of this, different musical productions of Anything Goes over the years have included some verses while omitting others.

Do you mean the Cole Porter version? Or did fallout make their own version?

But The Fallout Version Is The Original Version From The 1930's, But I Think The Original Was Only Piano And Vocal, And Fallout Made The The Jazz Background Music...
