Thanks for posting! Interestingly, in addition to the familiar verse and chorus, played both in the SAME KEY rather than with the published key change up a fourth for the chorus, he ALSO plays a TRIO I've never heard before!!! This 'additional theme' starts at 4:52 in this video. Finally, the 'third-time's the charm' ending reminds me a lot of the ending to "Hiawatha". I wonder if that's where he got the idea? The overall style of this is similar to certain late-aughts-era ragtime and vaudeville pianists I've heard, such as Joe Jordan, Abe Olman, and Malvin Franklin. However, Mr. Muir seems probably self-taught, without a whole lot of technique. But, he is very enthusiastic, and his fills are quite nice to my ear. Is he known to have made any other rolls?
Andrew Barrett my pleasure! I shouldn’t include conversation because nobody listens to it. I covered the key, trio and vaudeville ending in the introductory remarks
What's really funny to me, I listened to you talk about the roll and the song but half the things you were saying about 3rd proverbial and whatnot I didn't understand at all! I still liked it though!
Great tune! Thanks U frank🎶👌
Thanks. This is splendid: the real song as it was!
This is so splendid! The song as it was when first published.
Nice piano!

The 'additional theme' at 4:52 is "Take me to that Swanee Shore", another 1912 song by Muir.
Oh, this sounds similar to a piece I've heard but I don't know which song...
Same
@@shuyilin1607 It probably was this, maybe I heard it in Looney Toons or something...

What was Frank doing with his left hand? Also, why was his intro longer than the song!?!?
