this scene, is actually just a contestation to she audio in movies, that Chaplin thought was useless. with this song, he is just showing that cinema don't need words to reach his goals
Emmanuele Ettore Vercillo That's right. To that I would add that it's an absolutely brilliant joke. At last! Hear Charlie Chaplin sing! . . . in gibberish. He may be finally using sound, but he got the last laugh by using it to say that it's not necessary to tell a story.
By this time (1936) everyone was clamoring to hear Chaplin's voice. Chaplin never wanted to have the Tramp speak in any language to keep the character universal. But--OK---you want to hear my voice? Here's my voice....it is just in no particular language....it is just gibberish! Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.
He said bowl of Jello and Taxi which are English and said Senora which is Spanish. I think he spoke other languages also but do not understand all of it.
Animated Film Reviews Actually it's not nonsense, it's a mix of languages, two languages. hes actually telling a story as hes singing, about a girl who he shared a taxi with and made the taxi go around a circle twice and basically at the end the girl asks for his big diamond ring and so he gives her the ring, she then gives him a kiss and leaves ("tra-la-la-la-la")
@@nonnone7060 it's not a coherent story, the words don't fit together. The joke was that, in the silent era, the intertitles could be translated into any language, so the Tramp could be from anywhere, and thus appealed to everyone everywhere. But in the sound era, if he talked he was from a definite place, with a definite language and definite accent. So in the he interest of not alienating anyone, the first time we hear the Tramp say anything... it's gibberish. www.charliechaplin.com/en/articles/114-Nonsense-Song-from-Modern-Times-Titine-

По улице ходила большая крокодила ... А бедный Чарли Чаплин окурки подбирал... Вариантов очень много на знакомый с детства мотив. Талант и в чёрно-белом и без звука а уж со звуком тем более, во все времена остаётся с нами! Браво , Чаплин!
@Master Farr this movie came out well after films had synced audio. Chaplin was a hold out and insisted on the silent style. This scene was The first time viewers heard his voice.

The greatest entertainer of all time. The most talented & skilled. He sang, composed music, played instruments, danced, acted, directed, wrote, & produced. Did I forget anything? Probably.
This was the first time the world ever heard Charles Chaplin's voice, and he made it in a way that everyone in the world could understand. Truly a genious.
Nous lui devons TOUT ! Pourquoi ses films ne passent plus à la télé ? Certains, comme "Le Dictateur", devraient même faire partie des programmes scolaires. Merci Monsieur Chaplin
Quand j’étais en primaire nous étions allés au cinéma pour voir ces films comme Le Cirque ou Temps Moderne. Aujourd’hui j’ai 19 ans et je découvre par moi même le plus part de ses comédies, j’en suis tombée amoureuse! 🤍
when i was at drama school we had an exercise of gibberish, which is exactly what Chaplin is doing here. It was REALLY difficult, and this is just superb. What a talented performer he was!

Mr Charlie Chaplin was a genius and still has no rival nowadays with this singing contest. Who else can be call a Legend of talent but him? The whole movie is a masterpiece and still represents a real universal thing from 1936 to 2021. This is just a Genius at work!

If you see the whole movie you will notice that the first person who talks coherently in a Chaplin picture is the president of the factory and both times he is speaking from a screen, giving instructions to a supervisor and ordering Charlie to get back to work while he is taking a break to smoke. And since no other character talks during the rest of the movie it can be said that technically it was shot as a silent movie because with the exception of Charlie' singing no dialogue is recorded 'live' in the set. Pure genius !!!
Most people don't know but Charlie Chaplin was not only a brilliant actor, comedian and director but also very talented composer of the soundtrack music in his films!
È VERO, ECCO PERCHÉ IO DICO CHE È STATO UN ARTISTA SU TUTTI I FRONTI.... UNICO NEL SUO GENERE.... MA UNICO ANCHE COME PERSONA.... INCOMPARABILE.... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏
Exactly ! But with the exception of just this song, which is actually Chaplin's version of "Je chèrche après Titine," originally composed by Leo Daniderff in 1917.
From what I remember from my communications class in college, Chaplin actually sang in complete gibberish because he was terrified of Americans finding out he’s British since he had never spoken in his films before. For this film he was supposed to have a singing part and there was no way to get out of it. Chaplin, who was actually supposed to sing coherent lyrics, changed it. This worked because he already does storytelling through movement and his body extremely well.
I love how after all of these years when he finally talks, all he is doing is really the same thing he has been doing for over a decade, entertain people and tell a story without actually saying anything
A message to everyone trying to figure out the lyrics/language for the song: People, the lyrics are nonsense, they are not supposed to be understood. In fact, when this film was released overseas, Chaplin made it a point to tell the studio to make sure other countries didn't make subtitle cards for the song, as it was not meant to make sense. It is all double-talk.
Chaplin's relationships with women were not especially healthy, IMO. He and Goddard, who was nearly 20 years younger than he, lived together before they married, which was thoroughly unacceptable in 1930s Hollywood. Her association with him really stunted her career, even though she was a very good actress. His second wife, Lita Grey, (Paulette was his third) became pregnant by him when she was just 15, and they didn't marry until a year after that. His last of four wives was Oona O'Neil, who was 36 years his junior and only 17 when they married. The fourth time was the charm -- they were married 34 years (until his death) and had eight children.
LWOPP Chaplin also badly beat Goddard, as well as at least one of his other wives. If he were alive today, he would have had a record for domestic violence. ☹️ In the 1950s, during the McCarthy "Red Menace" Era (where pretty much everyone was suspected of being a communist or having communist sympathies), Chaplin was caught up in the frenzy. His American citizenship was revoked and he was deported. His fourth - and last - wife at that time, Oona, renounced her own American citizenship and joined him in exile in Switzerland, where he lived out the remainder of his days. As talented as he was, all his life Chaplin seemed to be a deeply troubled soul. 🤔
Oh, yes. He was. His childhood was a Dickensian nightmare. I don't care for that flowery, Victorian aspect of his personality, but since it was probably a coping mechanism for real horror, I get that.
Elizabeth Hobbs: You don't understand the song because you're not SUPPOSED to understand it. It's pure gibberish! In the context of the film, Chaplin's character is expected to suddenly sing a song before an audience to the melody of music being played. Chaplin's character had no time to prepare and doesn't know the song, so he immediately makes up a bunch of fake, gibberish lyrics to fit the melody.
Мне было семь лет. И когда я смотрела фильмы Чарли Чаплина по нашему советскому телевидению на телевизоре Неман, я задыхалась от смеха, падала со стула, и думала, что я просто умру от конвульсий. Непревзойдённый Чарли Чаплин.
ilovekane19 ; Take a look at Bob Fosse's song-and-dance routine 'The Snake', in the 1974 production of 'The Little Prince', and you'll see who the true dancing genius is. All hail Fosse!
The thumbs up to thumbs down ratio on this video is currently 99.98% Like versus 0.02% Dislike. I think we have a consensus. Chaplin was such a giant star in his day. He was a wonderful entertainer, writer, actor, musician and human being.

Modern Times as with all the Sir Charlie Chaplin films being shown on Sky Arts just made me laugh but also realise how talented this guy really was. Moon walk before Michael Jackson perhaps he inspired Michael as he must have so many. RIP and thank you. My husband has not long passed away and I thought I would never laugh again.
We had a conference about Chaplin during my school's cinema festival, my speciality class and we talked about this song that shouldn't be translated bc of it's non sense. Studying one of Chaplin's other movies « City Lights » for final exams is truly amazing ! An icon of the cinema !
Probablement une des scènes les plus mémorables de ce pur chef d'œuvre avec ce Monsieur Chaplin qui est juste un acteur hors normes et visionnaire, merci Chaplin pour tout ce que vous nous avez laissé ❤❤❤

This is what I can decipher .. There's a wealthy, large, moustached man who's trying to court a beautiful lady. He offers her a taxi and then secretly asks the driver to keep driving in circles so he can buy time. The two sit on opposite ends of the back seat in a state of flirtatious tension (the lady looks away, the man twiddles his thumbs). The man then attempts to make a move by grazing the lady's thigh, but his hand is slapped away. At the end the lady steals a quick kiss and bids farewell to the large man much to his dismay. The part at 2:46 - does the man give her a ring as a gift? Or is it one of the two's engagement ring? It's the only part I don't quite get. D:
She slaps his hand but asks his big ring. He gives it to her. Then They make out with the curtain closed and afterwards She leaves with a "tralalalala" much to his big dismay ... (lesson: diamonds are a girls best friend, but, that's another movie, gentlemen)
I've seen this many times and I'd say the whole scene goes a lot further than what you have written. It seems to me that the woman is shapely and very beautiful and the man is old and has a sparkling diamond ring indicating that he's wealthy. The woman - a very covert prostitute - notices the guy's wealth and when he soon asks her to take a taxi ride - and with a thumb-to-eye gesture indicating he wants more than just a ride - she accepts his offer. In a gesture that implies a bit of "hanky panky" - the man's index finger and pinky finger is/was apparently extended - the guy then directs the taxi driver to drive around in circles. As the ride progresses the wealthy man slips a hand on the woman's thigh - and is slapped for this. And here - I'm a bit confused. I think the woman tells him that he can't touch her unless he gives her money or his diamond ring. Some sort of financial exchange takes place. At some point the screen between the front seat and back seat is drawn. And then, well, it appears to me that the man grabs the woman's nipples, fondles them, kisses them and emerges his face in her breasts. It's hard to believe this scene ever made it past the 1930s censors: They must have been blind! (There's a scene - kind of similar to this in "Madame Bovary," by Gustave Flaubert. Also, I used to be a taxi driver and you can read my blog of taxi stories at realcabrides.blogspot.com)
Chaplin's accent was originally a Cockney one. He worked to make his accent a more refined-sounding English one, though occasionally the Cockney came through. He never tried to speak with an American accent. Until the advent of talkies, of course, accents didn't matter. When talkies arrived, some actors with speech impediments were forced to leave the business.
We are very fortunates to live in Charlie Chaplin's time and to admire his never ending talent. Modern times is one of his best films. I love it very much. What a genius, ahead of his time!!!!
Yes he was truly a genius!
Explain.
Is it because he invented the Moonwalk, the concept of "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" and "Taking my time on my Ride" all in the same number?
then ma nigga u will be waiting for a long long time
😣😣😣😣😣😣😣😣
he was self taught and taught himself to speak like a gentleman. Everything he did was hard work but yes he was exceptional
He deserves to be rediscovered by every generation.
New generations don't understand this. They are brainwashed to only accept "modern" garbage.
He is!
My fathers raised me with his films, so I'm grateful
Can you imagine how earth-shattering it was to hear Chaplin's voice for the first time? Entire theaters had to be gasping.
Must have been absolutely stunning! I can hear the roar in the theater even a hundred years later.
This was his first talkie?
I had watched a few of his films before this one when I heard his voice I got teary - eyed 😥❤
@@Westyrulz It's mostly silent with a couple of scenes with dialogue. He didn't do a proper "talkie" until "The Great Dictator."

Chaplin's character had no time to prepare and doesn't know the song, so he immediately makes up a bunch of fake, gibberish lyrics to fit the melody.
Perlinator67 He has written the lyrics on his cuffs, and they fly off when he goes onstage.
One of the greatest performances on record. Simply sublime.
He is a joker. तो फक्त एक विदूषक आहे..
Мне было семь лет. И когда я смотрела фильмы Чарли Чаплина по нашему советскому телевидению на телевизоре Неман, я задыхалась от смеха, падала со стула, и думала, что я просто умру от конвульсий.
Непревзойдённый Чарли Чаплин.
; First 'moon-walk'?
Lol XD
Charlie was MJ's hero.
ilovekane19 ; Take a look at Bob Fosse's song-and-dance routine 'The Snake', in the 1974 production of 'The Little Prince', and you'll see who the true dancing genius is. All hail Fosse!
Lol! Yes, quien sabe?
Lol
ТАНЕЦ движения мимика это чудо. Забыли. Преклоняюсь. Дай Бог вам взаимопонимания.
Only one word for Chaplin.....LEGEND
Charlie Chaplin était un véritable génie. Et le véritable inventeur du moonwalk!!
The thumbs up to thumbs down ratio on this video is currently 99.98% Like versus 0.02% Dislike. I think we have a consensus. Chaplin was such a giant star in his day. He was a wonderful entertainer, writer, actor, musician and human being.
People that unlike this video are just dumb....
+Fitk Olco no what do you know about Chaplin?
+Fitk Olco who the hells Steve
He still is! Either alive or post-morte, he still may stay the most legendary actor in the world :)
Marek Poláček Charlie wasn't the most legendary actor, he was the most legendary producer, director, composer and actor in the entire world.

Genius is too small a word for Chaplin. He is much more than that.
Modern Times as with all the Sir Charlie Chaplin films being shown on Sky Arts just made me laugh but also realise how talented this guy really was. Moon walk before Michael Jackson perhaps he inspired Michael as he must have so many. RIP and thank you. My husband has not long passed away and I thought I would never laugh again.
Charles Chaplin-great actor, composer and director.
UN GENIO
Charlie Chaplin the biggest talent EVER EVER EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Charlie Chaplin is a legend and his works will remain in the hearts of millions.
Chaplain is a very Talented Artist! No one can be better than him!
Love this timeless famous actor. Wish I could understand the song though. Thank you for sharing. Best regards. 🙏
We had a conference about Chaplin during my school's cinema festival, my speciality class and we talked about this song that shouldn't be translated bc of it's non sense. Studying one of Chaplin's other movies « City Lights » for final exams is truly amazing ! An icon of the cinema !
i like to watch funny gestures
The fact that this movie didn't win Best Picture makes the Oscars irrelevant in the past as they were right now. In fact it wasn't even nominated. Smh
Magique, magnifique sublime inoubliable 😂❤.
Probablement une des scènes les plus mémorables de ce pur chef d'œuvre avec ce Monsieur Chaplin qui est juste un acteur hors normes et visionnaire, merci Chaplin pour tout ce que vous nous avez laissé ❤❤❤
I lose count of watching his movies time and again to overcome boredom and depressing situations. Thank you Lord for the genius Charlie
Позитив .невозможно оторвать глаз
Искромётный талант искромётный ум

Чарли Чарлин - стало именем нарицательным, настолько широка его известность.
This is what I can decipher ..
There's a wealthy, large, moustached man who's trying to court a beautiful lady. He offers her a taxi and then secretly asks the driver to keep driving in circles so he can buy time. The two sit on opposite ends of the back seat in a state of flirtatious tension (the lady looks away, the man twiddles his thumbs). The man then attempts to make a move by grazing the lady's thigh, but his hand is slapped away. At the end the lady steals a quick kiss and bids farewell to the large man much to his dismay.
The part at 2:46 - does the man give her a ring as a gift? Or is it one of the two's engagement ring? It's the only part I don't quite get. D:
thegirlinmelb
thnx a lot..i was very eager to know meaning of that song
She slaps his hand but asks his big ring. He gives it to her. Then They make out with the curtain closed and afterwards She leaves with a "tralalalala" much to his big dismay ... (lesson: diamonds are a girls best friend, but, that's another movie, gentlemen)
Wow.
I've seen this many times and I'd say the whole scene goes a lot further than what you have written. It seems to me that the woman is shapely and very beautiful and the man is old and has a sparkling diamond ring indicating that he's wealthy. The woman - a very covert prostitute - notices the guy's wealth and when he soon asks her to take a taxi ride - and with a thumb-to-eye gesture indicating he wants more than just a ride - she accepts his offer. In a gesture that implies a bit of "hanky panky" - the man's index finger and pinky finger is/was apparently extended - the guy then directs the taxi driver to drive around in circles. As the ride progresses the wealthy man slips a hand on the woman's thigh - and is slapped for this. And here - I'm a bit confused. I think the woman tells him that he can't touch her unless he gives her money or his diamond ring. Some sort of financial exchange takes place. At some point the screen between the front seat and back seat is drawn. And then, well, it appears to me that the man grabs the woman's nipples, fondles them, kisses them and emerges his face in her breasts. It's hard to believe this scene ever made it past the 1930s censors: They must have been blind! (There's a scene - kind of similar to this in "Madame Bovary," by Gustave Flaubert. Also, I used to be a taxi driver and you can read my blog of taxi stories at realcabrides.blogspot.com)
This is actually not any real language, it's gibberish meant to sound realistic (it's part of the movie plot)
Chaplin's accent was originally a Cockney one. He worked to make his accent a more refined-sounding English one, though occasionally the Cockney came through. He never tried to speak with an American accent. Until the advent of talkies, of course, accents didn't matter. When talkies arrived, some actors with speech impediments were forced to leave the business.
Chaplin must have been a treasure for Hollywood.
How can you not love this guy?
Chaplin was a true genius!!! There wasn't been one to match him since!
Гений тот, кто изобрёл пенициллин, а не тот, кто кривляется
Charles Chaplin, Albert Einstein & Pablo Picasso, contemporaries and the biggest geniuses in their respective fields ever since.
Genius...Chaplin is pure genius...one of my favorite Chaplin films
О, ужас!

Just showing my daughter. Funny is always funny. Timeless stuff.
Wow Charlie Chaplin is the first master of moon walking.
Reverse moon walking xd
The genius of Chaplin!
En avance sur son temps! Génial Charles CHAPLIN !!!
Well now I see where Michael Jackson got his moves from! Charlie Chaplin was doing the moonwalk back in the 40's! What a great clip.
This comic genius has set a very difficult standard for today's comedians as well .... it is already beyond genius
History can never give birth to another one such as this genius. Thanks!
He's so cute and adorable, in this scene! Killing me softly, with his charm!😊
The first 'Moonwalk' by Sir Charlie Chaplin.....
Charlie had some serious dance moves that wouldn't be too out of place today
We need someone like him nowadays :-)
He will be remembered and enjoyed by all in the coming centuries.
A true legend and a genius.
Hats off, as he usually doing.
i like to watch funny gestures
