I know that Stan Laurel was very much in touch with the fans :) After he retired he spent most of this time answering fan mail and even had his phone number in the phone book and many fans were actually surprised that they could just call him up and he would speak directly with them :) So i think HE at least knew how much beloved he was and i am sure Oliver did too :)
@@zerne7887 Me too :) I have heard personal histories though that in his final years even though he was in Retirement he seemed to enjoy the last years because of his devotion to fans as they must have been the main thing that kept him going :) A sweet personal story i have heard here on youtube was from a woman who as a young girl lived right across the street from him and frequently would vist him with her friends :) She said his wife was not always as welcoming as she wanted peace and quiet but Stanley himself was always kind hearted and friendly and open to inviting them in to talk or something like that :) I know its not a direct response from Stanley himself but if you were wondering how he was doing in his final years then i hope that was a good answer :)
Of the many amazing things in this two minutes of sublimity is how they avoid doing things in lockstep, seem to be moving independently of each other, and yet end up precisely in time. Without looking at each other, they make many tiny adjustments that lead to synchrony.
I always felt it's one of the things that makes his physical comedy so great, none of it would have been so funny if he were just a big lumbering oaf. The fact that he had such poise and grace (coupled with his character's self importance) it gave him so much further to fall, which made the payoff of the gags even better, in my opinion...
I am not sure what it is that makes me love this scene so very much. It may simply be the absolute whimsy and fun/joy that caused this great team to break into dance.
I hope these 2 are still together doing this .... maybe somewhere else, someplace else... but together just as we've known them making another whole planet happy.
Oh yes. I imagine when Laurel breathed his last, he found Hardy waiting for him, took his outstretched hand, and followed him to meet a crowd of cheering spirits and angels whom they were ready to entertain forever.
Can't wait till my granddaughter is old enough to follow these steps. We're gonna dance. She's two now and has a t-shirt that has the "Another nice Mess" line on it.
actually Jingles, Oliver made two mistakes in this routine. If you watch the movie Stan and Ollie you will see them perform the routine twice, once correct and once with the missteps
I remember these guys so well ,would always turn the ole black and white tv and laugh for a half hour, t his generation has NO IDEAL what CLEAN COMEDY IS
I soo love , Laurel & Hardy ,! I 1st remember from the 1st time i seen them on telly back in the 70s, as a kid,! Born 23rd May 1968, ! God Bless from northern Ireland UK 🤝🇬🇧
This was taken ten years before I was born and is still fresh today. Laurel and Hardy were and still are my heroes. If I ever feel a bit down I watch a Laural and Hardy movie. Comic geniuses who still make people laugh today.
Two of best actors, no people to ever exist we were blessed with these two and the fact that they are still remembered today is amazing, you'll always be in our memories and hearts Stan and Ollie
They were absolute Masters of simple comedy done well...their films had a charm and a warmth all of their own,...and they simply crackled with comedy magic every time they stood in front of the camera.......🎭🎥🎬
Even if the universe we live in would have a million worlds like ours, this still would never be found again anywhere. Those two were magic and utmost unique. I love you, men!
Mark of real entertain - not a single negative word in the Comments. Stan and Ollie were on TV every week whilst I was growing-up in the 1960s and 1970s and their humour truly was then and remains now utterly timeless! And then there's the dancin'!
Absolutely brilliantine and one of my favourite film clips from their magical career. Still bringing happiness & laughter after all these years. Simply the best !
This scene was portrayed brilliantly in the new movie Stan & Ollie. In County Hospital, you could tell that the scene with Stan and Ollie in the car was being filmed in front of another screen. Here, in the original, this is one of the very few occasions that you can barely tell that the boys are dancing in front of another screen. Superbly done!
Whilst I think you can tell it's filmed in front of a screen (simply because of the complexity of what's going on in the background, and a slight hint of a shadow), you can't see the join between the set (which the railings are part of) and the background.
No two people in film history have made such a lasting impact as Stan and Ollie.So sad to think they have no idea now how beloved they still are.Or maybe the are smiling down from comedy heaven!!💓💓😆😅
Words dont do these 2 legends justice. So no words needed. Just laughing and more laughing. R i p to stan and ollie. The greatest double act of all time.
I watched the Stan and Ollie movie and this son went from something that's funny to something that is beautiful. They were fantastic performers. God bless to the both.
From WAY OUT WEST. I found a VHS of the film in my library. I forgot I had it. "Babe" Hardy has a style and grace that has never been duplicated by the hundreds of impressionists who come close--but never truly get him right. This video is awesome. Thank you for posting it.
Only discovered this movie and songs in it recently. Have replayed the two songs constantly. They are proof that simple things can be the most effective.
Two dances. This one and the end scene. This dance Coogan and Reilly had to make the same mistakes Laurel and Hardy did in the original while the end scene the dance was done without mistakes.
Yes I had no clue what they were actually saying I just made it up! I remember watching their films with my mam and dad when I was little and dancing around the living room with my dad . Sadly they too are not here anymore but lovely memories !
Blows my mind every single time I watch them Oliver for a very big man 6"2 140+kilos. He was sooo incredibly light andakes everything seem . effortless . My year 11 art Major was on these two Mae West, Marlene. I can't get enough if these two 😍😍😍😍🤣🤣💜💜🙏
The greatest comic duo of them all! Several came along after them, but they will never reach the highest caliber that Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy had!
Ollie got many of his flourishing gestures, “airs and graces”, from an aunt who ran a boarding house in Georgia. She drank her tea with her pinkie extended. What a character she must have been!
If you've not seen it already, the making of this scene, mule and all, is accurately recreated in the 2018 film 'Stan & Ollie', but we see it from behind the camera.
Great clip! The lyrics are: "Commence to dancin' Commence to prancin' Commence advancin’ Right and left a glancin' A moochy dancin' Slide and glide entrancin' You do the tango jiggle With a Texas Tommy wiggle Take your partner and you hold her Slightly enfold her A little bolder Just work your shoulder Snap your fingers one and all In the hall at the ball That’s all Some ball"
@@TheShootist Chill Wills was singing bass. Front right. He also was the baritone who sang the bass part of Lonesome Pine for Stan Laurel. There was no bass guitar to be played in this scene.

I have watched this over and over for the last 65 yrs!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome.
This is so precious for me. My dad was one of the Avalon Boys. What a treasure.
Wow, he was part of one of the best pieces in movie history
May I ask, which of them was he?
wow
Potrebbe scrivermi il testo ? Grazie.
I grew up with Stan and Ollie every Sunday afternoon. Of course we were harmless then
Two gentle geniuses, still entertaining their adoring fans more than 80 years later. I wonder it they knew just how beloved they were?
I would love to think they knew we were still laughing now. What bigger testament?
I know that Stan Laurel was very much in touch with the fans :) After he retired he spent most of this time answering fan mail and even had his phone number in the phone book and many fans were actually surprised that they could just call him up and he would speak directly with them :) So i think HE at least knew how much beloved he was and i am sure Oliver did too :)

Spettacolari👏👏👏😄
The three most perfect minutes in film history.

Mitici❤😂

Ollio's elegance, gracefulness and timing always leave me speechless. 140 kg of pure grace 😅
This is 82 years old now, pure gold 🤣
For such a heavy man, Ollie is unusually light on his feet.
I always felt it's one of the things that makes his physical comedy so great, none of it would have been so funny if he were just a big lumbering oaf. The fact that he had such poise and grace (coupled with his character's self importance) it gave him so much further to fall, which made the payoff of the gags even better, in my opinion...
His agility for a "big man" then was legendary....thinking of his full speed runs like the one in Another Fine Mess.
Ollie loved to dance, and was appalled by larger men who had no grace.
I totally agree.
Sleepwalk
80+ years on and still getting laughs. And it’s all so innocent: no swearing, no vulgarity, no violence. Just absolutely wonderful.
Die größten und besten Komiker aller Zeiten !
Laurel and hardy will NEVER grow old. They are timeless. ❤❤❤
You don’t realise it but your watching with a smile on your face.
The contraction of you are is you're, not your. It really isn't difficult.
@@markfox1545 ok! but I bet YOUR typing with a smile YOU’RE face 🤣

Humour without a fall guy. Truly, beautifully wonderful.
There are no words to express how very much I love these two gentlemen. As Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., once referred to them, "Two angels of my time."
Meravigliosi! Mi fanno ridere da quando ero bambina 😁 e rido ancora oggi! È stupefacente la loro comicità! Grazie
Two great friends and two comedy greats .... superb !
Laurel and Hardy; The gift that keeps on giving.
No other double acts come any where close to these guys.still amuses me today.fresh and funny even at todays standards.
Every second of this scene is joyous 😊
This was taken ten years before I was born and is still fresh today. Laurel and Hardy were and still are my heroes. If I ever feel a bit down I watch a Laural and Hardy movie. Comic geniuses who still make people laugh today.
This is one of the best film dances of all time and Chill Willis singing, got his start via this film with The Boys.
How can you not love this!
Two of best actors, no people to ever exist we were blessed with these two and the fact that they are still remembered today is amazing, you'll always be in our memories and hearts Stan and Ollie
God bless them too as they were the most iconic legendary comical duo of all time r.i.p my friends 👍
Timeless comedy genius will still be watched and discussed a 1000yrs from now 😅
Questa è classe, ragazzi! Assolutamente fantastici
🌹✨🌹✨🌟✨🌹✨🌹
They were absolute Masters of simple comedy done well...their films had a charm and a warmth all of their own,...and they simply crackled with comedy magic every time they stood in front of the camera.......🎭🎥🎬
They were still an act when I was young, times were very different then...You can only imagine what I think of the world today compared to then...
The final scene of the movie that came out a couple of years ago made the original version of this dance even more epic.
Absolutely brilliant!. Many thanks. Gérard lacey in Ireland. X.
Steve Coogan and John C Reilly did this dance perfectly and Stan and Ollie
Mike Rogers I agree. They did an excellent job portraying these to
Two legends.
They nailed it.
this is 85 years old now, just fabulous 😂
Great film "way out West" with bits of genius in Lonesome pine and this little dance routine comic genius unbeatable
This song and dance make my soul smile! Well, done, boys!
Even if the universe we live in would have a million worlds like ours, this still would never be found again anywhere. Those two were magic and utmost unique. I love you, men!

The perfect medicine when I'm feeling down........Laurel & Hardy
Unparalleled brilliance.
Semplicemente fantastici...!!!Ollio balla con una leggerezza incredibile..indimenticabili..!!!❤❤
I ve watched this 3 minute video 100 times.. I just love it so much.

Che splendore di film❤❤❤❤❤
Oliver Hardy is just wonderful in this
Pure magic, can't help but smile when watching
No two people in film history have made such a lasting impact as Stan and Ollie.So sad to think they have no idea now how beloved they still are.Or maybe the are smiling down from comedy heaven!!💓💓😆😅
I believe they do know, Keith. I think the love of their admirers reaches them.
You may be right there! Good to know so many people feel like us about them.thanks for reply👍
Words dont do these 2 legends justice. So no words needed. Just laughing and more laughing. R i p to stan and ollie. The greatest double act of all time.
A very fitting tribute to two comedic geniuses, ty T. Marvin Hatley & the Avalon Boys. Great track.
Chill Wills founded the Avalon Boys and was singing bass (and yodeling).
Iconic routine totally Laurel and Hardy
One word. Brilliant. I just love Stan and Ollie.
I watched the Stan and Ollie movie and this son went from something that's funny to something that is beautiful. They were fantastic performers. God bless to the both.
showed this bit at the academy awards show years ago the greatest
The best comedian pair of all times!!!!!!!!!!!
From WAY OUT WEST. I found a VHS of the film in my library. I forgot I had it. "Babe" Hardy has a style and grace that has never been duplicated by the hundreds of impressionists who come close--but never truly get him right. This video is awesome. Thank you for posting it.
John Reilly did a smashing great job with Oliver in "Stan and Ollie" 2018.
Indeed. Highly recommended.
Brilliant god bless them both true entertainers.💙💙
Only discovered this movie and songs in it recently. Have replayed the two songs constantly. They are proof that simple things can be the most effective.
I’m crying from laughing. God bless them!
The quarantine definitely has an upside..
Very beautifull. Thank you !
I smile and laugh my arse off every time I watch this.
Thank the heavens for the films of Laurel and Hardy to preserve the memory and talents for generations to come 🙏😳😍🤟💯‼️
MITICI GRANDI.👍💪👏
☺😁👏👏👏
A classic moment performed by film comedy's "Two Gentle Geniuses"..God Bless you Stan and Babe.
John c Reilly and Steve coogan have nailed this dance in their portrail of stan and ollie
Two dances. This one and the end scene. This dance Coogan and Reilly had to make the same mistakes Laurel and Hardy did in the original while the end scene the dance was done without mistakes.
@@TheShootist god i didn't know that. that must have taken a lot of work and rehearsals
Those two dance so well together! 😍
Cute and touching... geniuses ❤ 💛 😍🌹🌹🌹
Thanks for adding the lyrics. I really didn't know the words, and it makes the boy's dance even funnier
Yes I had no clue what they were actually saying I just made it up! I remember watching their films with my mam and dad when I was little and dancing around the living room with my dad . Sadly they too are not here anymore but lovely memories !

The greatest comic duo of them all! Several came along after them, but they will never reach the highest caliber that Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy had!
A Classic for all ages!
I love them. What character!
This is pure art
Ollie got many of his flourishing gestures, “airs and graces”, from an aunt who ran a boarding house in Georgia. She drank her tea with her pinkie extended. What a character she must have been!
And Oliver taught George "Spanky" MacFarlan
Thank you to John C Reilly and Steve Coogan for recreating this scene in "Stan and Ollie"
Thank you for the Memories.. to be a 5 year old boy again 😊
Wiggle. Texas Tommy.
Cudne dzięki ❤😁🏅

Even Dinah was dancing.
@@peeman_official1596 He's Italian, use google translate to understand what he says if you don't.
Stan and ollie the king of comedie forever
I always thought that the dance was so cool. It makes one feel good when you see them dance.
Wonderful. Just wonderful.
This always brings A smile to me.
This is correct 🎉🎉🎉❤😂😊😊😊😊😊
The old guy on the chair enjoyed it!
Great clip!
The lyrics are:
"Commence to dancin'
Commence to prancin'
Commence advancin’
Right and left a glancin'
A moochy dancin'
Slide and glide entrancin'
You do the tango jiggle
With a Texas Tommy wiggle
Take your partner and you hold her
Slightly enfold her
A little bolder
Just work your shoulder
Snap your fingers one and all
In the hall at the ball
That’s all
Some ball"
Brilliant. I sang it all in my head lol.
How do you know the lyrics? I've been watching this movie for 50 years and know the song by heart but don't have a clue what their singing.
@@michellehenderson4326 that's great! I hope I helped... I just so love this I felt the need to share my lyrical findings.. ;-)
