@@Tobias2789 I suppose, but Wells Fargo was long out of the delivery business by the time this was made. Their package delivery division was separated from the banking division and nationalized by the US government in 1918 to create the U.S. Railway Express Agency. I suppose it all helps the brand, but odd that they would care to focus product placement on a product they no longer provided, though, I guess, Apple would be fine to cough up money to prominently feature a Newton in a period film set in the 1990s.

I sing this at the Wells Fargo Security guy whenever he comes into our store and collects the cash. I bet he's ready to strangle me but DAMN!, it's such a catchy tune.

I have seen this movie about a zillion times - okay, a zillion minus one....what I always liked about it was that the actors and actresses who played the ordinary townspeople sang like ordinary townspeople, meaning, not many had great singing voices. I love this movie, especially the starting song of the salesmen on the train..
I worked for a shipping company at one time, loading trailers. I often thought of this song and imagined how excited people were anticipating delivery of whatever I was loading. It made me a bit more careful loading the trailers
“Is that the first thing I said or not?!... yes the very first thing I said or I’ll eat hay with a horse!” - mayor shinn. That line cracks me up every time.
Ron Howard was so adorable back then! I loved him as Opie on The Andy Griffith Show. Now he is perhaps one of the most successful directors in Hollywood History!
Easily the seminal moment of the play/movie IMHO. Winthrop is drawn out of his shell of hopelessness and views himself differently after this. In the law of unintended consequences, Marion is impacted and her feelings toward the Prof Hill do a complete 180 b/c he "saved" her little brother. Beautiful stuff, man.
I think the professor coming to the town changed that little boys Life. in the beginning he was very shy and very sad because of the death of his father. he might have been teased by other boys in the town because of his lisp.
I saw a Deaf/hearing production where instead of having a lisp, Winthrop was so shy he could barely sign. When the Wells Fargo wagon came to town, he jumped out in front of the group and started signing up a storm while Amaryllis “translated” by singing the lines. It was the most beautiful version of this moment I’ve ever seen.
The whole movie is excellent! My husband played Harold Hill in HS - he said it was the toughest music he ever had to learn, but the most fun! I have to say my favorite part to this day is when Winthrop gets so excited, he falls out of the tree. Too funny!!!
What an element of excitement here! We today can't fully appreciate how so many things we take for granted were harder to come by in 1912. Grapefruit from Tampa was certainly an exotic pleasure for many people in small remote towns like River City.
Dallas K There is nothing to suggest River City is remote. It has all paved streets, every modern convenience for 1912, parks and large stately buildings, lovely homes, railroad access with a seemingly endless stream of salesmen to sop up some of that disposable income, and people who dressed in the latest fashions. Remote in Iowa then would have been a farm town with all gravel streets and no modern conveniences to speak of, with the only big building being the grain elevator. River City considered itself a city. :) It undoubtedly was prosperous initially from the river trade and then got lucky with the railroad. I imagine it wanted to give Des Moines a run for its money. :) I hope it got the interstate and didn't wither on the vine. New technology has winners and losers.
@@653j521 This very scene here depicts a DIRT STREET in front of the train depot. You clearly know nothing of the historical period and did not even bother to look when this clip was playing. You have some kind of a chip on your shoulder and need to stop trolling.
Its 1962 or whereabouts. I am sitting watching this in my pajamas while my mother chuckles at all the Iowa references (she was from Cedar Rapids). Bet they found some real Iowans to play those bit parts. Anyway, its getting near my bedtime but we haven't gotten to "Shipoopi" yet.
I'm literally waiting on the UPS truck right now for my band instrument. I can see it's almost to my neighborhood on the UPS app. I just had to watch this right now.
Its great ensemble casting when each bit player has his/her own unique personality to lend to the mix. And these people seem like the real deal. No Californicized extras who never laid eyes on a corn field.
This is like one of those songs Wilson wrote for something else an decided to throw it in a scene. Who says _every_ song has to advance the plot in a clear and specific manner. . . I'm glad he did. It's a great song and for the film we have Ron Howard with a solo.
It does advance the plot: It signals the arrival of the musical instruments and a shift in Marian's stance toward Harold. It closes out Act I and sets the foundation for ACT II, which is ultimately the redemption of Harold from longtime conman to respectable citizen and Marian's new lover. "[Marian] tries to give Mayor Shinn evidence against Harold that she found in the Indiana State Educational Journal, but they are interrupted by the arrival of the Wells Fargo wagon, which delivers the band instruments ("The Wells Fargo Wagon"). When Winthrop forgets to be shy and self-conscious because he is so happy about his new cornet, Marian begins to see Harold in a new light. She tears the incriminating page out of the Journal before giving the book to Mayor Shinn." (Wikipedia, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Music_Man)
I just saw that there was an Alexa notification that an Amazon package had been delivered, and rather than asking her what it was I started singing "The Wells Fargo Wagon" from "The Music Man", complete with an insanely exaggerated Ron Howard lisp. Everyone, including the animals, looked at me like I'd lost my mind. Clearly, I've failed this family.
We did this show when I was in 7th grade. In 8th grade we were in rehearsal for the play (not the musical) and the director was talking to someone while we stood onstage waiting for him to finish. Someone started humming this and within a minute we were singing it with perfect harmonies and everything (as perfect as middle schoolers can be) it’s a very unforgettable song
fretkillrlives (sarcasm) You don't say! You mean to tell me that a guy who was born in 1902 wouldn't be dead by now? Immortality is actually not a thing??? Oh shucks! Okay, done being sarcastic now. I was just having a little fun with you, btw; don't take it personally. Meredith Wilson was a genius. Just because he's deceased doesn't mean his work isn't worthy of appreciating. William Shakespeare is worth appreciating. Frida Kahlo is worth appreciating. Hell, people are still reading and appreciating Homeric hymns thousands of years after they were first written. All of those people are deceased, and all of them were artistic geniuses who are still recognized as such years and years after their deaths. Why not Meredith Wilson?
Got introduced to this wonderfull movie back around t '63 at Ayers school, Mr Finnegan where are you? Still loving this movie and the memories of that era.....
I learned this and most of the broadway tunes I know today in my junior high chorus. I'm so glad; I love revisiting them! And what a delight to see Ron Howard play that kid!
When I was a kid, in high school, we did this as the school play. Packed auditorium every night. One of the most unforgettable moments of my childhood. We sounded this good too, and the stage sets...it was amazing.
I was in a summer theater production of The Music Man when I was 12. The director had to explain to us why everyone would be so excited about the Wells Fargo wagon coming to town (back in the olden days of 1912, buying things, especially from a somewhat remote location like Iowa, was much different than today). The director also had to explain to us why playing pool would be considered potentially scandalous.
Not so much the bank, but if I see a billboard ad showing the old wagon. This tune always plays in my head. And if I see a UPS or Fed-Ex truck coming down my street.
I graduated high school 20 years ago, but when I was in 5th grade, I played Winthrop in our high school's version of The Music Man. It was a lot of fun!
@@staticdoggoe34rd first, have fun! Second, watch a couple versions of it to get an idea of the character, if you're new to it. Don't copy it, but use it as a guide. Break a leg!
Funny thing Disney actually did a remake of The Music Man and Walt Disney also had a bunch of highschool bands perform 76 Trombones from the movie to commemorate the opening of one of his theme parks like back in the 70s.
Oh ho the wells fargo wagon is a coming down the street oh please let it be for me! Oh ho the wells fargo wagon is a coming down the street I wish I wish I knew it could be for me! I got box of mapled sugar for my birthday!
So I’m doing this musical now and I wanted that one line about the raisins from Fresno but I think a guy is going to sing it, so life lesson: just raise your hand for any of the lines 😂👏🏼
I used to react the same way as Winthrop to seeing and holding a musical instrument in my hand as a kid. I can smell that trumpet even today. They may not get him to shut up until he puts his mouth to that mouthpiece and starts to blow. I love how this song ties into the love story, which changes from here on in. It is so beautifully done and may be the most important musical number in the whole musical for that reason.
this is how i feel after i order something from amazon xD
This comment made my day. Thank you.😂😂
LOL
LateNightCrazies Oh the UPS truck is a comin down the block.
Hahah. That's the thought I had as well. Funny how nothing has changed.
LateNightCrazies no when I see a rare item Monday on Animaljam 😂😂
If I drove the Wells Fargo wagon I would think “oh no, not this crazy damn city Again”
It's hard to believe Wells Fargo never used this song in a commercial!

That long one-take shot slowly panning down everyone in town lined along the street. I love it. Amazing stuff.
Did you see Mrs Ziffel, Mary Wickes, and the gentleman who sang in the Mayberry choir? And of course, Opie!
