Mitch Miller - Pop Goes The Weasel
Pop Goes The Weasel (1620)
"Many think this song is genuinely American while some consider it English. Others believe it came from a children's song while still others associate it with a country dance. All are correct in a way.
"Pop Goes The Weasel" did originate in England centuries ago although no one knows precisely when or where, or if it simply developed as a folk song. It is known, however, that the song was quite popular as a children's singing game in England during the exodus of Pilgrims to America (1620-1640). Somewhere during the next century the song made its first American appearance in Colonial New England where it was used mainly as a contra dance, and it became quite a favo...

Mitch Miller - The Man On The Flying Trapeze
Просмотров 6 тыс.6 лет назад
The Man On The Flying Trapeze (1868) American people never seem to tire of this song, now over a hundred years old. Each time its popularity has sagged a bit some famous personality came along and picked it right up again. During the nineteenth century the rescuer was Tony Pastor, the father of vaudeville (from the French, meaning a light form of comedy). In this century Walter O'Keefe, Rudy Va...
Mitch Miller - Skip To My Lou
Просмотров 5 тыс.6 лет назад
Skip To My Lou (1832) This is one of the celebrated folk songs of all time here in America, although no one seems to know anything of its origin. It has been continually popular with our people since the early nineteenth century, and was featured in the 1944 Hollywood movie "Meet Me In St. Louis". This folk song was well used by our frontiersmen settling down in their homesteads and those still...
Mitch Miller - All Through The Night (HD)

All Through The Night (1784) This old melody is a truly genuine and distinctive Welsh folk song. Its first appearance in print was in 1784 (just after the American Revolution) in a collection entitled "Musical and Poetical Relicks of the Welsh Bards". The composer is unknown. The first set of lyrics to embrace this melody was probably written by the English authoress Amelia Opie on the subject ...

(1862) "Of all the songs written during and about the War, perhaps none is as strongly identified with the Union cause today as Julia Ward Howe's stirring "The Battle Hymn of the Republic." For over 138 years this song has been a fixture in patriotic programs and is still sung in schools and churches across the nation. In the early days of the War, the song "John Brown's Body" was wildly popula...

She'll Be Coming 'Round The Mountain (1870) "This song was born out of railroading folklore. Directly after the Civil War railroad-building swung into full stride. The Union Pacific tracklaying westward was to meet the east-bound Central Pacific in Ogden, Utah (they joined May 10, 1869). Other railroads, as well, were expanding as the iron horse needed more and more track. Many a tracklaying fo...

Rock of Ages (1775) is a popular hymn by Augustus Toplady written in 1763 and first published in The Gospel Magazine in 1775. Traditionally, it is held that Toplady drew his inspiration from an incident in the gorge of Burrington Combe in the Mendip Hills in England. Toplady, a preacher in the nearby village of Blagdon, was travelling along the gorge when he was caught in a storm. Finding shelt...
Mitch Miller - My Darling Clementine (HD)
Просмотров 14 тыс.7 лет назад
My Darling Clementine (1883) Recently I've realized the depth of mockery and resentment in the lyrics - some San Francisco homo decided to lampoon a man whose daughter had died. It's all fun and games until you're burning in hell, doubled over with regret, eaten by the worm of conscience, and not comforted by the memory of your sins. "This song came on the American scene when Vaudeville first b...

The Blue Tail Fly (1848) "This song was one of Abraham Lincoln's favorites, and he called it "that buzzing song." It is very likely that he played it on his harmonica. The song was also a favorite of the black-faced minstrels and their audiences. Although the song may have originated among the plantation negroes, it was not until about 1846 that Dan Emmett (the daddy of minstrel shows) wrote it...

Listen To The Mockingbird (1854) "A boy whistled; Alice Hawthorne heard it; this song was born; and people everywhere whistled it. In the year this song was composed (1854) some Whigs, Democrats and Free Soilers got together in Jackson, Michigan, and formed the Republican Party. Most of their wives wore the latest thing in fashion - hoopskirts. Though we were a song-loving nation we were also a...

Red River Valley (1896) "The Red River laden with red silt and flowing through Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana into the Mississippi, is not where this song was born. Originally it seems to have been an old New York State song around the turn of the century called "In The Bright Mohawk Valley" (very close to the Red River). "Red River Valley" was an adaptation of this latter tune made o...

Home On The Range (1873) "Ever since it had been publicized that this was Franklin Delano Roosevelt's favorite, this song's popularity soared upward, selling over a million copies. From that time on it became an American standard tune and has often been referred to as the "cowboy's national anthem." This song seems to have been written in 1873 by Dr. Brewster Higley (words) and Dan Kelly (music...

Camptown Races (1850) "This delightful nonsense song, considered an American folk song, was created by Stephen Foster during a happier period of his life, when he was only twenty-four years old, around 1850. This was the year in which he married, in which Millard Fillmore became our thirteenth president, Harriet Beecher Stowe was completing "Uncle Tom's Cabin", and the mad California Gold Rush ...

    Despite its many "perceived" mistakes and pitfalls, America, to me, will be the most perfect nation in Human History. God Bless America from a non-American. Long live the Star Spangled Banner, and long live rule of the people, a mighty republic, for the benefit of no king or tyrant, but rather of all men, from all men, and by God, by all men! Keep winning, America.

    DEMOCRATS are the most RACIST POLITICAL PARTY on the face of the Earth. DEMOCRATS were created in 1828. Democrats STARTED A CIVIL WAR. DEMOCRATS institute of Jim Crow Laws. DEMOCRATS instituted SEGREGATION. DEMOCRATS always try to pin one American against the other. DEMOCRATS are still doing the same type of painting hate look at the WOKE AGENDA. DEMOCRATS are GROOMING our CHILDREN through the EDUCATIONAL DEPARTMENT in order to become TRANSGENDERS. DEMOCRATS ONLY HATE & DIVISION.
