I got this tune on my mind and had to find it and here it is. Havent heard it in years and the darn thing came to mind. Love it and will listen to it again
The very beginning of this song used to bring my corgi x hot pawing it from the bottom of the backyard to attack the tele, Duchess /doop dog wouldn't tolerate any other dog near me even if it was just on tv, damn I miss her
I learned this song in the early 90’s when my sons were little. We didn’t have Kelpies, but we had Australian Shepherds. This song will live in my heart forever.
I got my 22mth old a Don Spencer cd for Christmas and I cant wait for him to open it. I LOVED this song as a child and hearing it now I'm surprised to find I still remember the words.. YOU ROCK DON!!!
We just lost our Kelpie yesterday due to Epilepsy. LOVE this song and video. Made me cry this time but it was worth having him and seeing the video again!
Great song! My children grew up with this. Fond memories. We are currently fostering a kelpie cross on a town block. It is far too small for her stamina and smarts. She just wants to go and go and please the boss.
First time I've seen this in literally years. It must have been 10 years, at the very least, but somehow I never completely forgot it. Thanks for bringing back fond childhood memories.
This cracked me up, I remember my mum telling me that my cousin used to have this on a tape, and played it non-stop on a 14 hour car trip. xD I love this.
Sheep are cute Sheep are beaut Sheep are soft and curly But when I take 'em In to town I have to start up early Cause they never go the way I want So I need someone to help me I just give a whistle And I call for Bob the Kelpie
I remember this from some kid network about 17ish years ago. My dad and I would crack up every single time it came on because of how bizarre this song seemed to us. We still bring it up randomly.
I thought I was only one!! This song was a goofy one to us and we laughed so hard at it! Reading all comments, I had no idea he was a real kids musician! Still brings back funny memories with my big brother!
my family could never figure out what kind of dog ours was, because he always just looks like such a mix. after seeing this, though, i'm sure he's got some kelpie in there somewhere!
So apparently Don Spencer was on Play School from 1968 to 1999. I think he was a regular presenter from 1968 to 1986 and then would appear as an occasional guest from 1987 to 1999. Does that sound right?
Животные
I heard this song once like 30 years ago and it's been stuck in my head ever since.
OMG, blast from the past!! Don Spencer!! I used to love this song and now I have a Kelpie!!!
I haven't heard this song in YEARS!! THANK YOU!
A complete banger innit
Wow this is wild. It’s weird to watch something for the first time in about 27 years or so. Song still slaps
When i was like 4 years old Don Spencer was my hero. I shook his hand once and it was so cold lol.
What a funny thing to remember ..... lol ..... that his hand was cold
There's nothing wrong with listening to kids songs from time to time they helps bring back memories of your childhood
My next Philosophy PhD thesis title will be: 'Bob the Kelpie and the Plight of Post-Modern Social Structures'.
I saw him when he came to town when I was like 6, I shook his hand. Easily the best moment of my life.
I love this song so much 🥰
Don's the MAN!!!! Love this...those were the good ole days!
Kids have grown up but still love this song. Its one that will stick in your head.

Yes don spencer & Peter Combe oh my gosh brings back a deluge of memories!! & u can't forget patsy bisco!! Being an 80s/90s kid was the best!!
I was an 80s/90s kid ...... maybe that is why I love this song
my sister and i used to sing this all the time
We just lost our Kelpie yesterday due to Epilepsy. LOVE this song and video. Made me cry this time but it was worth having him and seeing the video again!
They used to run this video on the Disney Channel back in the day. Back when it was cool.
So do I. In fact now I even have DVD's with the songs.
Had this on video as a young kid, such nostalgia. 😭
What a legend and an instant classic!!!. You wouldn't believe i gave up time studying just to find this song on the internet!
I loved this song as a kid, so glad to find it.
Who says kids songs are just for kids I'm 20 years old and I love this song
Now your 30 still loving it 🤣
I remember this song!! played it for my little one & she loves it as much as we did as kids
My 4 year old son adores this song :) I grew up listening Don Spencer
I still have the record from 1989 (I think), and the song still sounds as fresh as ever

at least 13 years since i last saw this.
I love this song I have a CD called "Don Spencer's Thumbs Up! Australian Animal Songs" and this song is on it
I used to run around the table when I was a kid listening to this. 37 now.
This song means everything to me. It's now 30 years young!
my daughter grew up with these songs and still loves them she is now 23
Sheep are cute
Sheep are beaut
Sheep are soft and curly
But when I take 'em
In to town
I have to start up early
Cause they never go the way I want
So I need someone to help me
I just give a whistle
And I call for Bob the Kelpie
Hello childhood
AWESOME. My wife is playing this on guitar next to me as we speak.
This is hilarious
I used to play this for my kids, now I'm teaching it to my preschoolers
I had Don Spencer and Peter Combe on constant loop on my tape player as a kid
Hayvanlari. Cok seviyorum onlara. İyi bakin turkiyeden srlam
I remember the ABC for Kids video that this was on, and there were quite a few other good songs on it too.
Would that be the ABC For Kids Video Hits?

If I ever get a male Kelpie I'll name him Bob after this song
One of my favourites!
I remember being in kindergarten in music class in 1995 singing this song.
Ihad both Don Spencer and Peter Combe in my life but growing up I mostly listened to Peter Combe.
My dog & I love this :D
Flash backs!!!!
I'm probably the only one here in 2021 well I was born in 2005 and around when I was 10 I use to blare this in my room :) bloody legends
Yay! Another one of my favorites.
I was looking for the horse monster. This is good too
Love Kelpies
Love this song Don Spencer's music is cool :D

Well at least you saw it. I now have all the series on DVD.
Does anyone have the footage for It's A Marsupial From The Thumbs Up Video?
my family could never figure out what kind of dog ours was, because he always just looks like such a mix. after seeing this, though, i'm sure he's got some kelpie in there somewhere!
Don Spencer looks alot younger there!

the kelpie is an inbreed that happen in Australia in the early 1900s
kora the kelpie song can it be made soon by someone? i can only get it on my schools site.
Both ways in fact.
@juxtaposer1 You're 100% correct there
Is Bob an Australian kelpie?
Don Spencer is Russell Crowe's father-in-law
That's because Russell married Don's daughter in 2003. Russell and Danielle divorced in 2018.
@@islandlifeauofficialchannel I’m well aware of that
Did you know he is Russell Crowe's father in-law?
What the?
@@claire040776 Bill is right. Russell Crowe married Don's daughter Danielle in 2003. About 15 years later, the two divorced.
