Happy 100th birthday Benny, you arent half missed. Superb word play, in stitches here at 45 years old listening to one of the finest comedians of our time.
This is a wonderful example of the verbal complexity that Benny Hill was a master of. Yeah, it depends somewhat on visual slapstick, but the majority is language driven, you just plain do not get his highly intricate rapid-fire wordplay from any modern comedian. It's funny that he rechristened himself after the great Jack Benny, but in my esteem he FAR surpasses his idol. He was brilliant and ahead of his time.
In terms of wordplay, there was none better than Ronnie Barker, but Benny knew how to make us laugh and laugh in more ways than one. His genius is unparalleled. He practically invented Brisith TV comedy during a time when they didn't have any clue how to do it. Everyone who calls himself a Sketch artist on TV owes him a debt of gratitude they can never pay him back. For all his efforts, the BBC unceremoniously dumped him from their line-up and Benny died of a broken heart more than anything else. To put his genius into perspective, the god of comedy Charlie Chaplin himself considered Benny Hill his favourite comedian...
Oh the sun and the rain fell from up above And landed on the earth below, In my garden of love Oh there's a rose for the way your spirits rose when we met, A forget-me-not to remind me to remember not to forget, A pine tree for the way I pined over you And an ash for the day I ashed you to be true And the sun and the rain fell from up above And landed on the earth below, In my garden of love Well there's a palm tree that we planted when we had our first date, A turnip for the way you always used to turnip late, Your mother and your cousin Chris, they often used to come So, in their honour, I have raised a nice chris-an'-the-mum Oh the sun and the rain fell from up above And landed on the earth below, In my garden of love Oh there's a beetroot for the day that you said that you'd beetroo' to me, A sweet pea for the sweet way you always smiled at me, But you had friends who needed you, There was Ferdy, there was Liza So in their honour, I put down a load of ferdy-liza And the sun and the rain fell from up above And landed on the earth below, In my garden of love But Gus the gardener's gone now and you went with him too, The fungus here reminds me of the fun Gus is having with you; The rockery's a mockery, with weeds it's overgrown, The fuchsia's gone, I couldn't face the fuchsia all alone And my tears fell like raindrops from the sky above, And poisoned all the flowers in my garden of love
the legend Benny Hill. Truly missed and never to be forgotten. I think it must have been so difficult to keep yourself from laughing when you are performing alongside Sir Benny. Truly a comedic genius!
Brilliant. Not only is it a charming song, it's also highly amusing. And Patsy has that superb melodic voice which makes it such a pleasure to listen to.
Fantastic! Benny Hill was an outstanding comic and his timing was so natural. He always looked like he was having fun, not working! thanks for posting.
He was singing live here. He was a complete entertainer: good singer and dancer- great comedian and mime too. His facial expressions were priceless. He had a sad ending, like many comedians, unfortunately.
Remember when growing up as a kid in the 70s 1st seeing Benny on tv with my late gran here in northern Ireland UK, born May 23rd 1968, My favourite of Benny is Ernie the fastest milkman in the West,, I was a milkman back in 1984 when I was 16 , after I left school,!
She has a voice to put you dreaming, and if I could capture her voice with tech stuff, I'd repeat her singing all night, to make me sleep... She has the voice of angels in this song...........
at 01:08 you can hear him laugh about himself and she is biting on her lips not to crack up ...and than back to concentration...thats what i call a pro! this man was absolutely brilliant! and he had a very good voice too...just my two cents!
This girl is so perfect /Her hair and dress/ Now there’s a rose for the way my Spirits rose when we met, A forget-me-not to remind me To remember not to forget,
Corrected lyrics (Chorus) The sun and the rain fell from up above And landed on the earth below In our garden of love Now there’s a rose for the way my spirits rose when we met A forget-me-not to remind me to remember not to forget A pine tree for the way I pined over you And an ash for the day I ashed you to be true (Chorus) And the sun…. Now there’s a palm tree that we planted when we had our first date A turnip for the way you always used to turnip late Your mother and your cousin, Chris, they often used to come So, in their honour, I have raised a nice chris-an’-the-mum (Chorus) And the sun….

Patsy Ann Noble (Trisha) does a good job of stifling some laughter from 1:07 to 1:15. She is beautiful and has a lovely voice even though she's mostly an ornament for this number.

Even if Benny could only be remembered for this song it would still place him head and shoulders above most other comedy writers. Brilliantly clever!
What a beautiful lady
Lucky Benny Hill
People who make others laugh are sent to earth by God. Bless Beny's soul. A really great soul.
This is the Best comment on all of yt !!! Bravo !!!

You mean Jimmy Savile too? People laughed to him too.

Benny is just timeless.....Thanks Benny for such a lovely childhood.

@@nirmalsuki It was Thames that dumped him: he'd left the BBC by choice many years earlier
He took a lot from Bob Hope too, but he was a student of comedy worldwide.
The world loves Benny and always will.
I love his wordplay.
Ahh Benny Hill loved watching you as a 6 yearold to 60 ye old still my favourite 😊😁
Benny's eyes add so much to the humor.

Oh the sun and the rain fell from up above
And landed on the earth below,
In my garden of love
Oh there's a rose for the way your spirits rose when we met,
A forget-me-not to remind me to remember not to forget,
A pine tree for the way I pined over you
And an ash for the day I ashed you to be true
And the sun and the rain fell from up above
And landed on the earth below,
In my garden of love
Well there's a palm tree that we planted when we had our first date,
A turnip for the way you always used to turnip late,
Your mother and your cousin Chris, they often used to come
So, in their honour, I have raised a nice chris-an'-the-mum
Oh the sun and the rain fell from up above
And landed on the earth below,
In my garden of love
Oh there's a beetroot for the day that you said that you'd beetroo' to me,
A sweet pea for the sweet way you always smiled at me,
But you had friends who needed you,
There was Ferdy, there was Liza
So in their honour, I put down a load of ferdy-liza
And the sun and the rain fell from up above
And landed on the earth below,
In my garden of love
But Gus the gardener's gone now and you went with him too,
The fungus here reminds me of the fun Gus is having with you;
The rockery's a mockery, with weeds it's overgrown,
The fuchsia's gone, I couldn't face the fuchsia all alone
And my tears fell like raindrops from the sky above,
And poisoned all the flowers in my garden of love
Benny was just brilliant.
Classic genius, still funny all these years later!

He had good singing voice- an all rounder unique talent in a golden age of british comedy
He was singing live here. He was a complete entertainer: good singer and dancer- great comedian and mime too. His facial expressions were priceless. He had a sad ending, like many comedians, unfortunately.
Yes, his facial expressions and looks in his eyes...
Brilliant impressionist too and he could do male or female impressions. Talented at languages too. He had abilities in many areas.
The Lad Himself ...Benny Hill -- May he rest in peace..

Now there’s a rose for the way my
Spirits rose when we met,
A forget-me-not to remind me
To remember not to forget,
Genius of comedy
jokes ,aside ,, benny ,, can sing well !!!
Ernie the fastest milkman is STILL after all these years the GREATEST novelty number one record.
Corrected lyrics
(Chorus) The sun and the rain fell from up above
And landed on the earth below In our garden of love
Now there’s a rose for the way my spirits rose when we met
A forget-me-not to remind me to remember not to forget
A pine tree for the way I pined over you
And an ash for the day I ashed you to be true
(Chorus) And the sun….
Now there’s a palm tree that we planted when we had our first date
A turnip for the way you always used to turnip late
Your mother and your cousin, Chris, they often used to come
So, in their honour, I have raised a nice chris-an’-the-mum
(Chorus) And the sun….
Now there’s a beetroot for the day you said that you’d beetroot to me
A sweet pea for the sweet way you always smiled at me
But you had friends who needed you
There was Ferdy, there was Liza So,
just for them, I put down a load of ferdy-liza
(Chorus) And the sun….
But Gus the gardener’s gone now and you went with him, too
The fungus here reminds me of the fun Gus is having with you
The rockery’s a mockery, with weeds it’s overgrown
The fuchsia’s gone, I couldn’t face the fuchsia all alone
And my tears fell like raindrops from the sky above
And poisoned all the flowers in my garden of love
Genius!
Loved that mann
Priceless!
RIP Benny one of the best

ich liebe diese Stimme!
Patsy Ann Noble (Trisha) does a good job of stifling some laughter from 1:07 to 1:15. She is beautiful and has a lovely voice even though she's mostly an ornament for this number.
BTW - Patsy went back to Australia around 1985 when her 3rd marriage failed.. she is 74 & involved with local theatre groups..
@@jrgboy She passed away in January of this year
A masterpiece! 🤗
No joke was too old, too stupid, or too obvious for Benny. That's what made them so funny.
Or too original.
my grandmother had a negative reaction when I plucked roses out of her yard to give to her. As a kid I thought I was being "nice" I meant well.
you was the best of the best.love you mr hill
Excellent 👌
Watch out for that gate Benny! Haha.
Just reading a Biography of Benny called Funny Peculiar the true story of Benny Hill. Very very good read. Recommended.
He actually CAN sing u haters -.-''
Political correctness kills comedy, wish for the old days.
A comedy genius
love yaa benny
My favorite Morrissey song and video.
Benny siempre rodeado de hermosas mujeres; que envidia!!
Śpiewa rozśmiesza bawi wszystko w czasie przeszłym bardzo szkoda😢
BENNY HILL... EL MEJOR DEL MUNDO!
Pure gold
