I believe it comes from the March on The River Kwai, as this song was recorded in 1995 (I think). But the actual whistle was made in the 1940’s and made popular by Bridge On the River Kwai in 1957 (great film I might say).
"Hitler has only got one Ball" was the original song, and the tune was repurposed as the River Kwai March, since for the movie they couldnt sing the original lyrics lol
@@AlexLeadAs mentioned before this is from the Colonel Bogey march which was composed in 1914 under the pseudonym Kenneth J Alford, who not surprisingly composed it after seeing a colonel whistle while playing golf.
0:43 I heard the thing that plays before the Austrian piccaso dissing part. and right as I heard I just remembered that one part of the Simpsons in the Michael Jackson episode when Leon was helping Bart write a song for Lisa and he came up with the most diabolical thing to sing ever. Knowing that as the melody makes it even worse 💀
I believe the lyric there refers to them rather living in London during the blitz because the Piccadilly station is deep underground making it an ideal bomb shelter
Bit late but Fred Karno was a circus performer / slapstick comedian so refering the army to a travelling circus - RFC could be the Royal Flying Corps the predecessor to teh RAF so calling the whole thing a flying circus

I had no idea the whistle (from my childhood) came from such a “rude” song.
could you teach me what is meaning that I’d rather hang around Piccadilly underground? Is Piccadilly underground subway in London?
Well
I do know that Piccadilly is an famous Road in London
And there is the Piccadilly subway line going under it
So they probably really do mean that

Love it! Some errors in the lyrics tho
There's a local radio station in the Philippines in the Island of Cebu that uses the whistle from this song
As a non-native speaker, I was laughed when I search what "regimental fife" is. How would he fit into it.
Can someone enlighten me as to who Fred Kano was and what the RFC was?
Royal Flying Corps and idk what fred is
They actually said "Fred Karno," who was a popular English Comedian. His name was likely incorporated into the song to add humor.
hes a comedian and a circus performer
Well, this is more relevant now than ever
😂
THIS SONG IS GREAT I❤IT
what is the meaning of
'What a fine lot'
can anybody tell me
the lyric "what a fine lot" literally means that they are good at what they do, not much meaning behind it
Fine basically means good. So “what a fine lot” just means “what a good group”
"A fine lot" - a good group of guys
Unless it's said sarcastically, in which case it means the opposite
i swear ive heard ''i dont want to join the armeeyyyyyyy'' somewhere in year 2 or year 1
I´m sorry that i am the 70th like

Help me with a question please. The whistling part has been stuck in my head. Is this the only song that it is from?
I'm not sure if you need an answer after a week, but this melody is called "Colonel Bogey March" and it was composed in 1914
W song
