I was 17 and decided I wanted to be a DJ, managed to get a once-a-week gig at the local youth club. This was my intro each week, I'm 70 now but falling down the RUclips rabbit hole and finding this is just gold :)
I am Japanese, and in the 1990s, my father used to take me to an arcade where this song was frequently played. About 10 years ago, it was also playing in a lonely game corner of a supermarket in the countryside. I miss those days.
DOS game "Digger" had it as a sound track. In USSR one of episodes of popular cartoon "Nu pogodi" used it too. So i guess it is right to say that it is pretty unversally nostalgic song.
I just saw the gameplay of a game called "Old Towers" and there was this song. You can't imagine how happy I was to know that this song wasn't a delirium in my head lol
Our music teacher in grade school used to put this on at the end of class and we had to do a crazy dance like we were popcorn that was popping. It caused a lot of injuries but we did it with her for 4 years until this kid named Kyle got knocked over into a cupboard and broke his tooth. Memories ❤️
lol used to do the same thing in school ( man that's going back a long time). I was browsing youtube and come across this song and i was thinking where have i heard that before, then it hit me lol back in school
Very first album I ever bought. It was 1970, and I was 7 years old. I immediately took it to my best friend's house, and after replaying for 40 minutes straight, his sister ripped it off the phonograph and broke it. good times.
It was on one the first albums I was ever given. I think it was called Hits for Kids maybe in about 1980 or so. I also remember getting a tape for Christmas at around the same time as that called Disco classics that was full of crap but did have a really excellent cover of Le Freak. I loved that song.
This was our wedding song, our 1st dance as a married couple. Ahh, memories. Brings a tear to my eye with every alimony check I write, and when I hear this song.
I never get tired of hearing that familiar " crackle" as the needle makes contact with a vynal record. This music was way ahead of its time. I remember when it first came out.
@Giuseppe Delorenzo PLEASE.... live on. i get your happiness for finding a song/tune you like and your comment and all. But, still. Live on. Be safe. Peace and prosper to You and all your family and friends. Yes I was a bit "drunk" as writing this but anyway.

Fun fact, Moog is the nick name of Australian composer, musician, producer, and film maker Blair Jocelyne. co creator of the youtube channel Mighty Car Mods. Don't need to explain why his nick name is Moog.
My son used to get dressed to this music ...way back in 1975... it was the only way to get him ready for school in time, in the mornings! best song for putting socks and shoes on quick... lol still lovable!
Wow! I listened to this 45 as a little girl. I have been searching for it and finally found it as it was imbedded deep in my memory. I still love this tune even after 50!
I played this song in my piano because it was stuck in my head, then my mom walked by and she told me this was a song she remembers from her childhood and didn't know the name of. I am glad I could make her remember a piece of her childhood.
Oh là ! La première fois que j'ai entendu cette musique remonte à mes 8 ans il me semble. J'étais en vacances avec mes parents en Espagne. Un tube qui a marqué une génération ! J'aime toujours l'écouter !
This version was recorded in 2006, which makes it younger than the Crazy Frog version.

This song was stucked in my head for the longest time. I heard it in a VHS I had of the cartoon called "Ну, погоди!". Thing is I am from Belgium and I didn't even know it was russian. I guess my father just bought it in a flea market or something. Then I had to check on internet about an old cartoon with a wolf and a rabbit and then once I had the name I watched random episodes of it on RUclips until I heard this song.

They were best known for their 1972 version of the Moog synthesizer instrumental hit "Popcorn", originally recorded by its composer, Gershon Kingsley, in 1969. I was 13 when I heard ( I was residing, in Europe than,) from my neighbor playing it...he just came from Overseas...Vidal, used to get Records that wasn't played in my Country. The sound was Amazing, Superb. I was justa 13 year old but knew that this Sound 🎶 like others were very different... It wasn't even NOT played on the Radio...this is 1972. Thank you, Vidal...❤ 🎼🎵🎶 It still playing on this side of the World...🎼🌟1🇺🇸🫶It melted in my brain, for ever❤️🔥🇺🇸
Love it and always did. I was born in 1960, and it feels a bit like walking back through all those years... and yes, it sounds like what we nowadays call Techno. Really a timeless song❣
I first heard this song on the boardwalk in N Wildwood NJ. I had just met my future husband and it was playing as we were walking along on our first so called date. We bought the record years later as a reminder of when we first met. It’s amazing how one song takes one back to a moment over 50 years ago. Great memories. Thank you for playing it.
@@zoki-kj3ox Since my original comment It's been 2 years. Now I'm just about to turn 60! This song will never get old. People our age know the song POPCORN. It's such a cool song.
@@zoki-kj3ox Andrew, wow a sailor! That's awesome. I must say anyone that visits New Orleans should only do just that.

@@zoki-kj3ox I wish I could visit your hometown. I bet it's beautiful there? I've never been out of the USA except once. I went to the Bahamas for my Senior highschool trip about a thousand years ago😆
That piece was on a TV show with beautiful choreography. I was about 5 years old and I learned the choreography, so I danced it when the program started. Beautiful memories.❣️
I came here after dancing to this song at the disco . I was shocked when I heard it again after so many years , i actually forgot it existed . I LOVE THIS
This brings me back. I grew up an Army Brat and this or Wild Cherry's "Play that funky music" was always on the jukebox at the base bowling alley. Didn't matter what base. Even in the South where everything was country.
And here we are in 2024. I was born in 1969. I remember so well that my eldest brother loved instrumental/synthesizer music very much and I heard the music of "Popcorn" from his bedroom every day. I just heard a piece of this music in a television program and of course I immediately knew what it was and immediately went on YT to listen.... And I still really love to hear it and I want more, so I'm going to take a walk down memory lane
I remember hearing it back then. Here is what I found - Popcorn is a famous early synth pop instrumental, originally recorded by Gershon Kingsley. In 1972, it was a huge hit in many countries when it was rerecorded by Hot Butter.
One of the best emotional sound ever made!! I love it as i am a small Child its 54 years old i am now 58 and i love this Song for ever and ever!!! Sorry for my bad english best wish Reiner from Germany
I visited Syria in 1991. I stayed with my grandparents in a city called Homs. There was a popcorn cart that would come down our street every so often, and it played an Arabic song to this melody. Now I know why. Incredible!!!!!! 😮😮😮
It's just the memory of the past that makes you feel deeply moved. Feelings associated with the song emerged once again, as if you were experiencing them for the first time... Yet, the song is a total crap by all standards. Still...
This was the first piece of electronic music i ever heard. it was about 93 when I was in second grade... so about 8 years old. our cool school bus driver was pumping this through the stereo system and i coulnd't keep stil in my seat. I jumped around in the aisle of the bus and i never stopped bouncing ever since. Viva Braindance!
Electronic music was already around for at least 30 years when this was written. Vera Lynn's first recording of the classic, "We'll Meet Again", with accompaniment on a Hammond Novachord was recorded in 1939. And the Tornados' 1962 instrumental, "Telstar", was performed on a claviolene.
Oh, WOW! This record has been well cared for. With an headset on no scratches or dust present. I'm 78 and this was one of my early favorites when I discovers MOOG. Percolator was another, "Maxwell House" coffee.
I LOVED this song when I was a little girl and now I'm 58! Feeling nostalgic, I actually searched for it today and found this! Thank you for the upload. Merry Christmas from California 🌷
JIeksik My two-year-old son yells out "nu bagazi" (he says "pa" for "ba" right now and I guess thinks the "da" is a "za") whenever he hears this song (he's half Russian). Very cute :)
A friend bought me this as one day back in the 80's I couldn't get this tune out of my head I was in my 30's back then and today it came back into my head for no reason.
bei diesem lied bin ich meinem papa ganz nahe. er starb 2017. das lied wurde 1972 wärend der olympische spiele in münchen oft gespielt. mein papa hatte mich überall mitgenommen. ich durfe alle wettkämpfe erleben. das lied bringt die wunderbaren erinnerungen sofort zurück. erlebnisse von vor 50 jahren sind auf einmal wieder da. papa ruhe in frieden in der ewigkeit. so wie dieses lied in alle ewigkeit seine magie entfalten möge.

This is a cover version by Anarchic System released in 1972. The original version is by Gershon Kingsley, released in 1969 on his album "Music To Moog By".
i found it... i finally found it after at least 5 years of wondering and searching. im only 13, but i was 6 when i first heard this, my dad and i use to listen to it all the time and it was an absolute *pop* it was my favourite song and im glad i found it again
When this song came out, my grandfather had just died. I heard it on the radio in the car coming back from the funeral. It was one of the first 45's I bought. I played it repeatedly on my record player, for weeks, bawling my eyes out.
I've always wondered where I've heard this from until I started rewatching some old nu pogodi episodes and wow, the childhood memories started flowing in, early 2000s it's raining outside, all the metal clanking from all the water and I'm just sitting in front of a big box tv watching nu pogodi on a dvd player, I really miss it
My wife is currently making popcorn on our stovetop. I said, "You know what we need right now? The song POPCORN.'" Since she, too, is a Baby Boomer, she knew exactly what I meant. Zipped to this post for the gratification of this great song. Thank you. P.S. Our stovetop stuff was great, too!

Totally agree. Apart from being a bit twee and naive, it is pretty much timeless.

Long live Mr. Robey, my 5th grade teacher who used to teach the class dance moves and one of the songs was Popcorn. No wonder I Love EDM so much. Thanks Mr. Robey🎶
💕 I was a female D.J. with heavy Vinal. Not only do I love this song, I love the video you created. Back in my day, I had to "front up", with the gear I bought!

his pad has levels for each type of record
@@NEHappyCamper i can see that
@ literally every turntable comes with a flat pad, the one with outlines was a third-party one

They were best known for their 1972 version of the Moog synthesizer instrumental hit "Popcorn", originally recorded by its composer, Gershon Kingsley, in 1969.
I was 13 when I heard ( I was residing, in Europe than,) from my neighbor playing it...he just came from Overseas...Vidal, used to get Records that wasn't played in my Country. The sound was Amazing, Superb. I was justa 13 year old but knew that this Sound 🎶 like others were very different...
It wasn't even NOT played on the Radio...this is 1972.
Thank you, Vidal...❤
🎼🎵🎶 It still playing on this side of the World...🎼🌟1🇺🇸🫶It melted in my brain, for ever❤️🔥🇺🇸
This synthpop masterpiece was ahead of his time..🏴
full 1969 album on youtube
search for "Gershon Kingsley- Music to Moog by, full LP (1969)"
The most underrated song of all time!
Hey no! It's still going great amongst people havn fine taste in music
... but there are no lyrics, so it's not a song, it's an instrumental.
No, it was played everywhere, all the time, in all versions.

"Let the bodies hit the floor"
Goddamn it.
I think its from another band from another genre of music🤣
But great to see a guy who can listen synth-pop and alt metal at the same time😅BTW Popcorn has got death metal cover 🤣I definitely remember that
@@sandansaiyan5675 I think you would like "Floor Corn" by Neil Cicierega.
OH SHIT SO THATS WHAT THAT WAS
Love it and always did. I was born in 1960, and it feels a bit like walking back through all those years... and yes, it sounds like what we nowadays call Techno. Really a timeless song❣
it sure does like go back in time
What is it like to have been there to see technology evolve and grow over the years? :0
I used this track for my floor routine in my gymnastics career in the 80s still absolutely love it ❤
it's really astounding how much ahead of it's time this music sounds.

Ahh, the beginning of an era! The electronic music will never be the same after this song 😉
Utter nonsense, what are talking about?, the beginning of an era?
@@securityrobot what?
@@securityrobot the beginning of epic synths and techno
For the first time that I heard this song I was 7 years old and now I'm 59 ! I still enjoy it.
I first heard this song on the boardwalk in N Wildwood NJ. I had just met my future husband and it was playing as we were walking along on our first so called date. We bought the record years later as a reminder of when we first met. It’s amazing how one song takes one back to a moment over 50 years ago. Great memories. Thank you for playing it.
So many cool instrumentals from the 60s and 70s music will never be the same again
Omg! I'm 57 yrs old and out of curiosity I searched for this song. Haha! I used to live it!! Memories!
@@zoki-kj3ox Since my original comment It's been 2 years. Now I'm just about to turn 60! This song will never get old. People our age know the song POPCORN. It's such a cool song.
@@zoki-kj3ox You have a fantastic day! From New Orleans, Louisiana🤗
@@zoki-kj3ox Not far from Baton Rouge. New Orleans🙂
@@zoki-kj3ox Andrew, wow a sailor! That's awesome. I must say anyone that visits New Orleans should only do just that. Although it's a fun city to visit during Mardi Gras it's not the ideal place to live if you're not use to the party atmosphere. And crime is bad here. My neighborhood is about 15 miles outside of New Orleans and it's very safe. So you're in the UK?
@@zoki-kj3ox I wish I could visit your hometown. I bet it's beautiful there? I've never been out of the USA except once. I went to the Bahamas for my Senior highschool trip about a thousand years ago😆
That piece was on a TV show with beautiful choreography. I was about 5 years old and I learned the choreography, so I danced it when the program started. Beautiful memories.❣️
Emmmm, is this the dance? ruclips.net/video/YfdLh0MHqKw/видео.html

This brings me back. I grew up an Army Brat and this or Wild Cherry's "Play that funky music" was always on the jukebox at the base bowling alley. Didn't matter what base. Even in the South where everything was country.
My mom showed me this song and now I love it, it's my second favorite song.
It's truely amazing how it still lives today.
I LOVE THIS SONG!!
Музыка из "Ну Погоди!", каждому из СССР знакома с пелёнок!
еще спортлото
Согласен
А как же "мама сшила мне штаны,из берёзовой коры..."?
Yes?
Я с 2012 это божество услышал,в мультике "Ну Погоди"
💎💎Petite Nostalgie de nos Musiques 60 / 70 💖💖
One of my mom favorite songs. I loved it bouncing around the living room and she would just laugh at me. I was like 7 or 10. Now I’m 51😀
Beyond wholesome
And here we are in 2024. I was born in 1969. I remember so well that my eldest brother loved instrumental/synthesizer music very much and I heard the music of "Popcorn" from his bedroom every day. I just heard a piece of this music in a television program and of course I immediately knew what it was and immediately went on YT to listen.... And I still really love to hear it and I want more, so I'm going to take a walk down memory lane
Just thinking about this to play on my keyboard today. I remember this from back in the 70s. Thanks.
but its not from the 70's....
I remember hearing it back then. Here is what I found - Popcorn is a famous early synth pop instrumental, originally recorded by Gershon Kingsley. In 1972, it was a huge hit in many countries when it was rerecorded by Hot Butter.
lol so what did she do -= make a face ;) hahaha
Julie Nielsen it dates back to 1969
One of the best emotional sound ever made!! I love it as i am a small Child its 54 years old i am now 58 and i love this Song for ever and ever!!! Sorry for my bad english best wish Reiner from Germany
@user-uj9dm2iu6n you too!!😉
I have always loved this song. And love hearing it off an actual record!
I visited Syria in 1991. I stayed with my grandparents in a city called Homs. There was a popcorn cart that would come down our street every so often, and it played an Arabic song to this melody. Now I know why. Incredible!!!!!! 😮😮😮
I remember an old friend of my dad playing this on a guitar back in 90's. He used the highest possible notes and it sounded amazing.
You can't play this on a guitar!!
@@sabbyalonzo3793 uhh, yes you can?
Well, look on the bright side... Kyle may have chipped a tooth but at least it didn't kill Kenny lol ;-)
Walking back from a club to the train station a friend worked out how to play it on the 'pop' sound from pulling his dummy between his teeth.
This is a profound and deeply moving song. I have been transformed spiritually by listening to it.
Me too. While this song was playing I saw God
Hahahaha!
@@thetigerstripes Well that's far out , solid and right on 3rd Battalion 11th Marines! ;)
It's just the memory of the past that makes you feel deeply moved. Feelings associated with the song emerged once again, as if you were experiencing them for the first time... Yet, the song is a total crap by all standards. Still...
Dare BGD I’m only fifteen and have no connection to the song and I can say it a great song.
1:26-1:40 just gives me this warm fuzzy feeling inside and it is one of the best feelings to get from music!
True
There's a term for that feeling and it's called frisson. Be grateful because not everyone gets it.
@@concernedliberal4453 thank you! It’s incredible! I get the same feeling from the undertale soundtrack and Andy Shaufs’ “The Magician”
My first record ever - back in 1976? I still remember the joy I felt that day ~ 50 years ago!
It might have been my first one ever as well. It was certainly the first single I got.
That was the re make of it
Linda tonada que me trae tantos recuerdos. Su ritmo es agradable y está muy bien tocada. Recuerdo como me gustaba oírla en la radio.
This was the first piece of electronic music i ever heard. it was about 93 when I was in second grade... so about 8 years old. our cool school bus driver was pumping this through the stereo system and i coulnd't keep stil in my seat. I jumped around in the aisle of the bus and i never stopped bouncing ever since. Viva Braindance!
Electronic music was already around for at least 30 years when this was written. Vera Lynn's first recording of the classic, "We'll Meet Again", with accompaniment on a Hammond Novachord was recorded in 1939. And the Tornados' 1962 instrumental, "Telstar", was performed on a claviolene.
@@dougbrowning82 thanks for the history lesson, but i only said it was the first electronic song i heard when i was a kid. :-)
i was eating popcorn so i searched popcorn so i watched popcorn while eating popcorn
+Paul Nixon Popcorn-ception
same. searching up what youre eating makes it 10x more appetizing.
I AM HUNGRY Nice to meet you, I am eating.
+Paul Nixon Actually you heard Popcorn ;)

Oh, WOW! This record has been well cared for. With an headset on no scratches or dust present. I'm 78 and this was one of my early favorites when I discovers MOOG. Percolator was another, "Maxwell House" coffee.
If you put this at my Funeral, i will revive and dance till the song end
Ha Ha, just like Weekend At Bernies
So you must put a 10 hours version then

As long as you collapse once the song's over, I'm good.
Please please make this real! 😂
50 ans que je ne m'en lasse pas ! Génial
❤❤❤
When I little kid, my dad was whistling this. I watched evolution of electronic music and hear it too many years ago.
my dad was just whistling it now
I LOVED this song when I was a little girl and now I'm 58! Feeling nostalgic, I actually searched for it today and found this! Thank you for the upload. Merry Christmas from California 🌷
Ну, Погоди!
У меня тоже эта песня ассоциируется с этим мультиком.
JIeksik My two-year-old son yells out "nu bagazi" (he says "pa" for "ba" right now and I guess thinks the "da" is a "za") whenever he hears this song (he's half Russian). Very cute :)
Andrew Nystrom в старых советских мультиках больше пользы чем у тупых современных.
JIeksik no počkej!
Да !!!
A friend bought me this as one day back in the 80's I couldn't get this tune out of my head I was in my 30's back then and today it came back into my head for no reason.
You can see where Jean Michelle Jarre got his inspiration from. Timeless classic ☝️
*Michel
Definitely!
Yes - I remember the music teacher pointing how how much Oxygene 4 sounds like this!
Jean Michel Jarre is a fraud...
bei diesem lied bin ich meinem papa ganz nahe. er starb 2017. das lied wurde 1972 wärend der olympische spiele in münchen oft gespielt. mein papa hatte mich überall mitgenommen. ich durfe alle wettkämpfe erleben. das lied bringt die wunderbaren erinnerungen sofort zurück. erlebnisse von vor 50 jahren sind auf einmal wieder da. papa ruhe in frieden in der ewigkeit. so wie dieses lied in alle ewigkeit seine magie entfalten möge.
It sounds like a new song when I heard it as a child in the 90's I thought it was more the sound is so fresh and ahead of it's time.
We danced to this when I was in the 2nd Grade! I’m now 41yrs old! 😬🙌🏽😍☺️good mems for sure
We danced to it when I was in high school, in the 60's. I am now 67 yrs old. It's a very "feel good" piece of music. Really gets yer feet movin'.
An Ombre Rose hahaha that’s sooooo cool! I’ll have to try that when I’m having a really bad painful day! I have Sle lupus & other medical issues. So, that would be a good way to just let go. & listen & feel pain free. ☺️

It took me 52 years to get this song out of my head! I was browsing Utube and ARRRRG. Now it’s going to be another 52 years!

i found it... i finally found it after at least 5 years of wondering and searching.
im only 13, but i was 6 when i first heard this, my dad and i use to listen to it all the time and it was an absolute *pop*
it was my favourite song and im glad i found it again
I was fortunate to find this song in my younger single digits also. I'm 30 now. Enjoy your life with this song.
Thank you for the info !
17 million views for a song with no words . Now that’s worth a celebration 🎊
When this song came out, my grandfather had just died. I heard it on the radio in the car coming back from the funeral. It was one of the first 45's I bought. I played it repeatedly on my record player, for weeks, bawling my eyes out.
I've always wondered where I've heard this from until I started rewatching some old nu pogodi episodes and wow, the childhood memories started flowing in, early 2000s it's raining outside, all the metal clanking from all the water and I'm just sitting in front of a big box tv watching nu pogodi on a dvd player, I really miss it
the music from nu pogodi is such a nostalgic hit for me always.
smae
possibly the greatest synth-pop song ever
Right!
Right after the 1963 Dr Who Theme Song
My grand dad used to play this when I was little, it always made me laugh. I haven't heard it since I was 3 years old.
My wife is currently making popcorn on our stovetop. I said, "You know what we need right now? The song POPCORN.'" Since she, too, is a Baby Boomer, she knew exactly what I meant. Zipped to this post for the gratification of this great song. Thank you. P.S. Our stovetop stuff was great, too!
