When I was little my grandma would give me a bath and while washing my hair she would sing “I’m gonna wash the dirt right outta my hair, and send it on it’s wayyyy!” She changed the words to be more appropriate. I love memories of my grandma. 😍
The reason we are playing this is because our little 18month old is having a bath and my husband is singing I'm going wash that food right outta my hair" - still in the phase where food is more a plaything than something you put in your mouth. Everywhere else gets good, apart from his mouth haha
Like "Single Ladies?" If I may give you a small piece of advice Get to an audiologist as soon as possible. Single ladies is just someone shaking their ass about, it cannot begin to compare with this number.
When I was on Kauai I went to this beach, just wanted to see where this scene was filmed. Lumenhal Beach, quite a trek through a lot of deep sand to get to it but it was worth it. It was completely deserted when I finally got there. Just lovely and unchanged from when this scene was shot.
Lumahai. Deserted because it’s not suitable for swimming surfing or anything whatsoever. Nearby there are lovely beaches though (many still formidable as Its still Kauai north shire after all...)
Saw this musical on stage when I was really young (like so young that I had no idea what the plot of it was) and ever since I’ve had this song just randomly pop into my head at the most random moments and idk why or how I remember it
Oh my word! Same to me. Inwas maybe 12. I saw clearly watched & heard the tall beautiful woman on stage scrap soapy suds and sing this song! And every few years...Pop! Into my head. And only the chorus mind.
South Pacific the best musical ever, did y know it ran for 4 and half years in the dominion theatre london, mitzi was superb in the film, still love to watch it ,cheers from Barry new Zealand
I love it too and am patiently waiting to be washed or rinsed or whatever into some great dame's life! Cheers from America, in many ways the United States of Amnesia.
Yes my parents saw it at the Dominion in 1959 after it was equipped with the Todd AO screen to show this film, they then took each of their own parents to see it, What they show though was not the version shown in the US and the version that survives, they saw the European print where the story starts out as on the stage with Nellie and Emile on his plantation terrace, instead of as in the US version which still survives of it starting out on the beach with Bloody Mary and the sailor. Did you know they used that same print for the whole of its 4 and half years run in London? I am told it contained more scenes that is it the surviving US print Theatrical or Roadshow, but know seems to know what happened to the European Print,
@@bobbywimsy6741 Hey Bobby, I too am living in the United States Of Amnesia.....At the age of almost 90 I can barely remember my name sometimes, but I can sing (Not always in tune) these songs word for word. I count my self so lucky to have been around when these films were "The Best"
70 millimeters version stereophonic soundtrack, 6 tracks, the best ever! TechniColor copy! Merci beaucoup for this outstanding remastered rendition rendering rendez-vous,!
Robbie Hagberg and I can get a pop up and I will be there around the same time as I get home from the house to get it tomorrow so I can get it tomorrow if you can get a pop up and I can go to the store and then go to the store and get them to you and your mom and dad will come to the store and then I'll be home by then if you want me to come to you and I can go to the store and get it done before I go to the store and get it and if you want it to you can get them in the back
What a musical it is. Wonderful songs. I wanna wash this man right out of my mind, here we find an inteligent word's play in a special melody. The really good musicals are so rare today. Mitzy Gaiynor was awesome.
When I saw this movie as a kid, the moment right after this song really shocked me. The guy asks her about "That song you were singing...". I'd always assumed that in musicals, the audience is meant to assume reality basically takes a break during the singing of a song... But by him asking her about it when they're back to talking, we're meant to believe that in the actual real-life reality as perceived by these people, this woman and all the others on the beach had in fact miraculously burst into song and spontaneously performed a perfectly choreographed dance number?!
Suzinne Barrett Mitzi is still around and kicking!!! She's 83 and like Debbie Reynolds who's about the same age, still doing their schtick for women their age which is wonderful!!! go Mitzi !!!
This is the song that made me realize I needed to break up with my ex. I got to see it on the big screen thanks to Fathom Events and when this song started playing, I had my AH HA moment. I realized I needed to wash that boy out of my hair and I’ve never regretted the decision since 😉
One of my all-time favorite movies. I loved Mitzi Gaynor and Nellie Forbush from Little Rock. This movie is a classic. Great in every way. Even as a teenage boy I played the soundtrack record a million times!!! Oops... I probably shouldn't have admitted that.🤪
@@Emiliapocalypse Not sure every teenage boy in the late 50s liked the music from South Pacific However, I had an ulterior motive... I loved Mitzi Gaynor - especially when she was singing I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Out of My Hair in halter top and shorts on the beach. 😁 I have loved that music ever since and have seen stage productions over the years - but nothing compares to Mitzi! 👍
Seen on inside edition where the lead vocalist just passed away today at the tender age of 94 came over here to pay my respects to the woman 👠👠 she really had some amazing astonishing vocals never really knew her I am IMMENSELY SORRY she passed away 🙏🙏🙏😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏😭😭😭
I know that I am living on my memories, but I am almost 90 years of age, and in all that time I have Never seen a better musical than this....Nor have I seen a more beautiful woman than Mitzi Gaynor. Those were truly my "Halcyon Days"
That was a great movie!! I was one of the sailors, when I was with The Magic Circle Theater, in Montrose, Colorado 2011. That was so much fun to act and sing in that.
Great job cutting it together. Thanks for sharing. Now if someone would only restore the color in the scenes where Logan washed out the image, I'd be a lot happier.
This sequence was filmed in its entirety and would match the soundtrack recording perfect if it could be found, as was the children's solo 'Dites Moi' on the soundtrack recording but Dies Moi was cut completely out of the film and 'wash that man badly cut before even the roadshow version of the film was shown.
on what is Mitzi Gaynor's 90th Birthday this should be restored to it full length. I am told the full sequence does still exist as per the soundtrack recording what a present for Mitzi!
I agree with Oscar H.; the number does seem flat somehow. But I dunno--I don't think it had anything to do with the character shampooing her hair in a movie. A major problem, IMO, are the sudden cuts to the character on the horse. They draw focus from the number. And wouldn't it be more fun if Mitzi G. were prancing around and the camera was moving along with her? Here the camera is mostly static, and the performers seem confined by it. On the other hand, maybe the camera should be completely static, and Mitzi and co. should just be filling up the confined space with their facial and vocal effusiveness, like Judy Garland and the chorus do in the glorious "The Trolley Song" in "Meet Me in St. Louis."
An other example of 70 millimeters wide movie, a masterpiece!stereophonic sound and Technicolor rendering. BRAVO FOR this incredible spectacle, impossible nowadays, to much expensive in 70 millimeters and stereophonic sound no way. E
I have always thought that truncating this song was a big mistake. It was more than a song, it is an early anthem for Feminism. The cut lyrics would have taken less than 90 seconds of screen time. I was hoping that the DVD with the Road show version (almost) would have this full number but it didn't. You are correct that the additional set of lyrics were never recorded at all. Richard Rodgers did not go to Hawaii for the production as he was ill in New York. Had he been there the full song may have been kept in he film.
Sadly I heard the opposite it was Richard Rodgers that had it cut, he also had cut the first version of the children singing dites-moi before the reprise with their father which you can hear on the soundtrack album, and before you see him having lunch with Nellie, apparently the European cut was more complete than even the Road show version was in the US my parents saw the European version at the Dominion Theatre in London and they said it was more complete than the US version.
Apparently I have been told all the footage still exists of the complete version of this song as per the soundtrack album, it should there be put back into the film it was cut to produce the roadshow version as the original cut to this film runs over 3 hours
In stereophonic soundtrack and cinemascope, a real Masterpiece NO way! Free week-end and gay songs like these, What a real pleasure! Waste no time and MUST listen To these no way! Real great new print in large wide screen! Emmanuel from Paris France
Joshua Logan's overly static direction didn't bring the vitality to the numbers that directors like Minelli, Sydney, Donen, even Robert Wise and Carol Reed brought with dolly ins and outs from full shots to medium shots when you can without missing action going on. If you notice they get a moving camera in whenever possible, including dropping from higher angles. Joshua Logan was a great drama director. He just didn't rise to the occasion like Robert Wise did.
I'm not as crazy about this song as I am about "A Wonderful Guy" even before I saw the beach scene where it was filmed on beautiful (back in those days) Lumahai Beach, after years of storms part of the beach isn't looking quite the same, Hurricane Iniki in 1992 really damaged that north shore of Kaua'i , Charo's store was still closed and no longer there when I went in 1993 and in 2012. But definitely I love this scene in the movie because of that beach!!
Nellie: I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair, I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair, I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair, And send him on his way. I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms, Nellie and Girls: I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms, I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms, And send him on his way. Don't try to patch it up Girls: Tear it up, tear it up! Nellie: Wash him out, dry him out, Girls: Push him out, fly him out, Nellie: Cancel him and let him go! Girls: Yea, sister! Nellie: I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair, I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair, I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair, And send him on his way. If a man don't understand you, If you fly on separate beams, Waste no time, make a change, Ride that man right off your range. Rub him out of the roll call And drum him out of your dreams. Girls: Oho! If you laugh at different comics, If you root for different teams, Waste no time, weep no more, Show him what the door is for. Rub him out of the roll call And drum him out of your dreams. Nellie: You can't light a fire when the woods are wet, Girls: No! Nellie: You can't make a butterfly strong, Girls: Hmm, hmm! Nellie: You can't fix an egg when it ain't quite good, Girls: And you can't fix a man when he's wrong! Nellie: You can't put back a petal when it falls from a flower, Or sweeten up a fellow when he starts turnin' sour Girls: Oh no! Oh no! Nellie and Girls: If his eyes get dull and fishy, When you look for glints and gleams, Waste no time, Make a switch, Drop him in the nearest ditch! Rub him out of the roll call, And drum him out of your dreams Oho! Oho! Nellie: I went to wash that man right outa my hair, I went to wash that man right outa my hair, I went to wash that man right outa my hair, And sent him on his way. Girls: She went to wash that man right outa my hair, She went to wash that man right outa my hair, She went to wash that man right outa my hair, Nellie and Girls: And send him on his way!
Factoid: All the trees on this beach were actually cut down and placed here in the sand to look as though they were growing here. That shallow pool is fake too, created just for the filming of this scene.
Trivia supposed factoid: prior to Broadway South Pacific it was generally assumed that washing one's hair too often impaired health. But after Mary Martin did this on stage 6-8xweek, attitudes changed. And, I suppose, shampoo companies rejoiced.
It's funny. Stage actress Mary Martin made the Nellie Forebush role sizzle on Broadway for years. Then curvaceous Mitzi copies the performance like an ape for the Hollywood film, and that is all people remember about this great South Pacific story.
This was my all-time favorite musical. I cannot believe that it has been ruined. I tried to watch it and some of the best parts of the movie aren’t there anymore. And the second remake more than 1/10 as good
Also missing are the following lyrics: "If his eyes get dull and fishy when you look for glints and gleams, waste no time, make a switch, drop him in the nearest ditch. Rub him out of the roll-call and drum him out of your dreams."
I remember watching the Ed Sullivan show when he’d booked the Beatles for 3 appearances and found Mitzi Gaynor’s song and dance act, on the Beatles 2nd appearance i think, more appealing, but then i was a 14 yr old boy.

@@bobbywimsy6741 good one.
Same here
The reason we are playing this is because our little 18month old is having a bath and my husband is singing I'm going wash that food right outta my hair" - still in the phase where food is more a plaything than something you put in your mouth. Everywhere else gets good, apart from his mouth haha
my mum did too!
To me, this song is like "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" in the 50s :)
Yes, in the fifties my grandmother took me to the cinema to see this film. The film industry can't make anything to this standard now
🤔🤭💯
Actually, 1949--the year the original production debuted.
Like "Single Ladies?" If I may give you a small piece of advice Get to an audiologist as soon as possible. Single ladies is just someone shaking their ass about, it cannot begin to compare with this number.
It's a delight to see Mitzi Gaynor again, such a beautiful and talented artist. Thank you for posting this truly lovely share.

Grew up listening to this and dancing around with my sisters. Love that album.
What a musical it is. Wonderful songs. I wanna wash this man right out of my mind, here we find an inteligent word's play in a special melody. The really good musicals are so rare today. Mitzy Gaiynor was awesome.

Still remember pulling out the LP of this cast album simply to hear Mitzi belt out this deliciously bluesy tune. Mitzi was so great.
"Mitzi (is) so great! You're never dead still you stop leaving foot-prints!"
Is Mitzi still performing? Believe the tense I used is correct. Her career's behind her.
Suzinne Barrett Mitzi is still around and kicking!!! She's 83 and like Debbie Reynolds who's about the same age, still doing their schtick for women their age which is wonderful!!! go Mitzi !!!

Same 🤣
My thought is always about the random music coming on in the middle of every day life.
awesome song, I be watching this weekend
There was also another part was never recorded: one about "dropping the man in the nearest ditch."
Now I'd like that
Haha for real?? I gotta look this up!! Thanks!
RIP Mitzi
This sequence was filmed in its entirety and would match the soundtrack recording perfect if it could be found, as was the children's solo 'Dites Moi' on the soundtrack recording but Dies Moi was cut completely out of the film and 'wash that man badly cut before even the roadshow version of the film was shown.
Dites Moi was most definitely in the version of the movie that I saw in 1951 at the Scala Cinema in City Square. Leeds
This song is beautiful!
the setting is so beautiful
This has the same energy as cutting your bangs after a break-up.
That's when movies were absolutely worth seeing. The women were absolutely fabulous back then.
When I did this show in high school, we boys would sing "I'm gonna wash those crabs right outa my hair"!
Encouraging. I needed this tonight.
I remember laying on my tummy leaning out my bedroom door, to watch it and listen to the songs while my parents watched it :)
Heerlijk om dit weer te horen.

I LOVE THIS SONG IT REMINDS ME OF MY MUM,SHE LOVED IT R.I.P. MUM LOVE YOU
me too
great little song from "south pacific".
I used to watch the head and shoulders (or was it prell?) commercials when I was little, and never knew it was a song from an actual movie.

Nellie:
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair,
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair,
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair,
And send him on his way.
I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms,
Nellie and Girls:
I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms,
I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms,
And send him on his way.
Don't try to patch it up
Girls:
Tear it up, tear it up!
Nellie:
Wash him out, dry him out,
Girls:
Push him out, fly him out,
Nellie:
Cancel him and let him go!
Girls:
Yea, sister!
Nellie:
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair,
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair,
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair,
And send him on his way.
If a man don't understand you,
If you fly on separate beams,
Waste no time, make a change,
Ride that man right off your range.
Rub him out of the roll call
And drum him out of your dreams.
Girls:
Oho! If you laugh at different comics,
If you root for different teams,
Waste no time, weep no more,
Show him what the door is for.
Rub him out of the roll call
And drum him out of your dreams.
Nellie:
You can't light a fire when the woods are wet,
Girls:
No!
Nellie:
You can't make a butterfly strong,
Girls:
Hmm, hmm!
Nellie:
You can't fix an egg when it ain't quite good,
Girls:
And you can't fix a man when he's wrong!
Nellie:
You can't put back a petal when it falls from a flower,
Or sweeten up a fellow when he starts turnin' sour
Girls:
Oh no! Oh no!
Nellie and Girls:
If his eyes get dull and fishy,
When you look for glints and gleams,
Waste no time,
Make a switch,
Drop him in the nearest ditch!
Rub him out of the roll call,
And drum him out of your dreams
Oho! Oho!
Nellie:
I went to wash that man right outa my hair,
I went to wash that man right outa my hair,
I went to wash that man right outa my hair,
And sent him on his way.
Girls:
She went to wash that man right outa my hair,
She went to wash that man right outa my hair,
She went to wash that man right outa my hair,
Nellie and Girls:
And send him on his way!
I'm gonna wash that gray right outa my hair . . . hair color commercial from 1960s. Remember it?
I HAD TO GIVE A BIRTHDAY PRESENT TO A KID I HATED I SANG "I GOTTA WIPE MY ASS WITH A TWENTY DOLLAR BILL" TO THE SAME TUNE HAHA
I love you thank you
Thank you!!!!! ♥♥♥♥♥
Great song
i saw a clip of this ages ago and didnt know about but wen mitzi started to sing i knew it was her straight away!
Factoid: All the trees on this beach were actually cut down and placed here in the sand to look as though they were growing here. That shallow pool is fake too, created just for the filming of this scene.
i love this song
I love the song
I was inspired to see this from Stairway to Stardom :D. This singer has a beautiful voice.
Trivia supposed factoid: prior to Broadway South Pacific it was generally assumed that washing one's hair too often impaired health. But after Mary Martin did this on stage 6-8xweek, attitudes changed. And, I suppose, shampoo companies rejoiced.
I have an audition for my school's production of this tomorrow!
It's funny. Stage actress Mary Martin made the Nellie Forebush role sizzle on Broadway for years. Then curvaceous Mitzi copies the performance like an ape for the Hollywood film, and that is all people remember about this great South Pacific story.
I guess I'll have to sing this to my future child someday...hahaha
I just watched the musical of this and the lyrics in the bio of this video were in the song in the musical
Absolutely not. This is how it appears in the film.

This was my all-time favorite musical. I cannot believe that it has been ruined. I tried to watch it and some of the best parts of the movie aren’t there anymore. And the second remake more than 1/10 as good
This was filmed at Lumahai Beach in Kaua'i
AN INCREDIBLE 70 MILLIMETERS WIDE SCREEN PRINT NO WAY AND INCOMPARABLE GREAT RENDERING EVER! E
Also missing are the following lyrics: "If his eyes get dull and fishy when you look for glints and gleams, waste no time, make a switch, drop him in the nearest ditch. Rub him out of the roll-call and drum him out of your dreams."
I remember watching the Ed Sullivan show when he’d booked the Beatles for 3 appearances and found Mitzi Gaynor’s song and dance act, on the Beatles 2nd appearance i think, more appealing, but then i was a 14 yr old boy.
Good music...a great musical of its day for the audiences of post WWII America. They could really relate to the themes, I'm sure.
I Love this song when Herbert LOM sings it in the pink panther
Dave Walpole I love Herbert Lom's character in the Pink Panther but I must've missed the movie where he sings this song, which Panther movie was it?
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair,

I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms,
I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms,
And send him on his way.
Don't try to patch it up
Tear it up, tear it up!
Wash him out, dry him out,
Push him out, fly him out,
Cancel him and let him go!
Yea, sister!

Good song.
The only movie by Rogers and Hammerstein I've seen is the sound of music. It's my fave movie of all time!
Your missing a lot then many others to enjoy, although the stage shows are even better than the movies!
I have to audition for a play. Is this a good broadway song? I can’t sing high or hold notes for long. Thanks! 💕💞💘
Please let us know how the audition went and which selection you went with...?
Hey! It's the song from that TV commercial! "I'm gonna wash that grey right out of my hair. I'm gonna wash that grey right out of my hair.
who in the world could have washed that man out of their hair?!
So hard to find the Mitzi Gaynor version!
