Three Stooges "Oh Elaine" Squareheads of the Round Table

[@0428733]

Jesus, she had the most gorgeous voice, on top of being a stunner.

[@panhead537]

Moe, Larry, Curly, and Shemp had such good singing voices. We miss U, fellas. R.I.P.

[@DeadhunterThe]

Not only did Larry have a good singing voice, he was also a Carnegie Hall violinist and an undefeated professional boxer.

[@TheRoguishOne]

Yes, they did. They knew how to nail the three part harmony singing style for men. If any of the Three Stooges had a fourth man singing with them, they sounded like a genuine Barbershop Quartet!

[@TheRoguishOne]

@@DeadhunterThe That's true. Larry knew all the ins and outs of Vaudeville and he had boxing training in his youth. I always did like it when he played his violin in any of their sketches. He was always just as talented and versatile as the Howard brothers.

[@DeadhunterThe]

@@TheRoguishOne Yes, and it was all due to an accident he had as a child. He grew up in a jewelry shop and picked up a bottle of cleaner that looked like a bottle of soda. His father knocked it out of his hands right before he could drink it, but it splashed on his arm. The doctor who saved him told his parents that the best remedies for gradually restoring the strength back in his arm were to take violin and boxing lessons.

[@ferdiaoconnell4464]

I miss the stooges. They rest in peace😥🪦

[@joeancona2784]

I always said Larry's genius is so UNDERRATED, watching him sliding that bow on MOES face makes me laugh till my sides ache .And his laughter line makes this whole song FUNNIER!!!

[@DeadhunterThe]

You know he was a Carnegie Hall violinist AND an undefeated professional boxer!

[@joeancona2784]

@@DeadhunterThe I knew the violin 🎻 but not anything about 🥊 interested

[@DeadhunterThe]

@@joeancona2784 Yeah, he's undefeated at 1-0. He only had one match before joining the Stooges. You see, the doctor that recommended signing him up for violin lessons after he burned his arm and muscles when he was a child also recommending signing him up for boxing lessons. Anything that required arm movement and building up, the doctor recommended.

[@bwdrums1]

Good God, Christine Mcintyre had the most amazing voice !! The brilliance of the Stooges.....them three mugs taking a beautiful opera standard, dragging it into the gutter, and spitting out one of the funniest scenes they ever did....love it !!!

[@bobkemp5882]

SO true.

[@TheRoguishOne]

Truly the essence of old time Vaudeville and Burlesque. The Stooges grew up in those schools of theater and it really shows, when you know the history.

Yup! One of my favorite lines from this bit. And Moe's setup is classic, too -- "It's balcony, knothead -- ain't you got any sense of romance?" :-)

"We are three restless knights-" "And our days ain't so hot, either!" *smack*

[@Foolishpleazure]

And funny thing is,her voice wasn't dubbed.She had a natural,and beautiful Operatic voice :)

[@sabrinadubois2614]

Sabrina DuBois Christine McIntyre studied voice and received a Bachelor of Music degree at Chicago Musical College. She had a beautiful voice! I always loved her singing "The Voice of Spring" in the Stooges short "Microphonies."

[@dougmontgomery1868]

Not only that, but Larry was actually playing that prototype of a violin. He was quite the violin virtuoso.

[@kevins.butler3402]

Chris McIntyre was a talented, beautiful and sweet person..that he lost all too soon.

[@GalenNight]

While that was the case for a few starlets many had their voices dubbed by black singers if you can believe it

[@ericstra2793]

What an underrated gem she was. Probably typecast from all her stooges shorts and her contract she didn’t become a bigger star. Her loss was stooge fans gain. I don’t feel too sorry for her though.when she left Hollywood she and her husband went into real estate in California. Probably very successfully!

[@williswhitfield3316]

Love Elaine, But flee the black prince is lurking near,I will rise the lovey shades, when the coast is clear, Love it

[@greylanders6101]

Awesome!

[@jpsned]

I love the harmonies, especially Moe's high tenor on top. ❤

[@paulj6756]

"Squareheads" is one of the funniest Three Stooges episodes. It was written and directed by Edwards Bernds who--unlike Jules White--understood that Shemp was not Curly. Bernds knew Shemp's strengths.

[@frightfan1]

One of my favorite Stooges moments! God bless them all.

[@melissacooper4282]

Shemp: 🎵He wants to see you. So come out on your front porch 🎶 Moe: Balcony, ya Knothead! Ain't you got no romance?! (Slap) Shemp: I was going to say "veranda" but I said "porch!"

[@joegaito702]

[@richierich5694]

Favorite song in opera AND favorite song by the Stooges

[@antfromstl1966]

I'm so happy for knowing like-minded people who has a since of humor. "He wants to see you, so come out on your front porch." Hahahahahahaha

[@richfalcon1]

if you watch the whole movie they later dance to a radio in the castle. Moe says, "a radio? but its ancient times." Larry responds by saying, "its an ancient radio." therefore they must be ancient shades/windows.

[@roberttelarket4934]

Rich Falcon: ancient radio-ingenious.

This aria is called "Chi mi Frena in Tal Momento" and it's from the opera "Lucia di Lammermoor"Here it is from the Met in NYC: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ioOUq62sbt98hZo

Just watching this 3:20 p.m. on METV 9/18/21 and love this jingle(I've seen this episode and all the others at least 250 times beginning as a 14 year old in the mid 1960s) and also the fantastic operatic voice of the beautiful Christine McIntyre.

[@theBaron0530]

Y'know, we enjoy the Stooges so much in this clip, let's not forget what a great set of pipes Christine McIntyre had, too. Classically-trained singer.

[@joegaito702]

Thank You Stooges. My life is complete!!

[@lordorlandu5115]

Instant favorite.

[@coventrygardens]

The Three Stooges were so swell, and the set of 2 minutes or so in the video is likely one of the best short clips....and the music and singing is genuinely righteous for reasons going beyond the fact that the Stooges were in it. Another swell clip is in "Brideless Groom" where a woman beats the heck out of Shemp, and the actress portraying that woman was Christine McIntyre, who likewise portrayed Elaine in this scene.

[@kachoo2135]

Chris felt mighty bad about belting Shemp. She cried after the scene was over because Chris was a lady and it was not her nature to go beating up on people

[@Sierrahtl]

I’m so happy I found this..

thanks for posting this,have been looking for this for a while now have found it Cheers to you

[@LynneMezzo]

I think I read that the Stooges were raised in a family which loved and appreciated opera, so they must have had lots of recordings. Needless to say, if they used the sextet from Lucia di Lammermoor in 2 episodes, they knew about opera!

[@joegaito702]

What couldn't they do you named it sing slapstick and eye poking and pie fights as we know it the best and greatest comedian's ever of a trio ever you made my weekend just hilarious priceless keep the laughs coming appreciate you guys thanks job well done you should be proud the howards and fine family would be proud and laughing after all these years later appreciate you guys thanks !

The melody you’re hearing is based off of the beautiful operatic piece named Lucia di Lammermoor: “Chi mi frena in tal momento” That being said, I’ll always cherish the joy the 3 stooges of old brought to me. “This house has sure gone crazy” “You jug head”

[@sanfranciscobay]

For window shades, they did have materials made from cotton, silk, hemp. For Glass Windows from Wikipedia, "In England, glass became common in the windows of ordinary homes only in the early 17th century whereas windows made up of panes of flattened animal horn were used as early as the 14th century"
