    That man could sing the phone book and get a standing ovation...
    And make it funny interesting and entertaining....

    His lyrics implied more than they said. There was a detachment about him, too. He was an entertainer, but a great songwriter.

    Performed in Muleshoe, TX, several years ago. Roger learned the community was trying to build a little league baseball park, he endorsed the check he received for performing, and donated it for the ball park. Roger Miller Ball Park is still in use.

      He was funny but I think because of that he was overlooked as a serious artist. Other examples are Roy Clark and Jim Stafford

  • @StephaneVorstellung
    @StephaneVorstellung 2 года назад +2

    He was such a trip. Goofball and national treasure. His songs played with repetition, rhymes, consonance (often in the middle of lines, not just the ends) that are in the same orbit as, Dr. Seuss, Gertrude Stein, and Gerard Manly Hopkins. I don't know if he actually read the poetry of the latter two, but he's a kindred spirit nevertheless.

      Hey Bob Smith? Roger WROTE that tune. It's just sped up and rap lyrics added. He'd laugh his head off, I think. And biravioles.. that's a Roger twisted words nickname if I ever heard one: Viagra Big... er nevermind.
      '"The Hampsterdance Song" is a song by Hampton the Hampster. It was released in July 2000 as a single. It was produced by The Boomtang Boys, using a sped-up hook from the Roger Miller song "Whistle Stop" -Wikipedia
