Judy is an amazingly Beautiful, Divine, glorious and stunning and breathtaking actress. I wish to God that her life was a Thousand times beyond better, greater, nicer, happier and decent than it ever was.
@@pamelamorris6708 No you don't! How could the trolley train have 3 lights in front of the pocket for the train bell dinging and 3 sticks in the pocket for the train whistle tooting?
Among the wonderful things about this wonderful song is the chorus singing while Judy's worried where her boyfriend is, it's a delicious tension.. It runs like track thru the whole song
What a wonderful piece of film nostalgia. Judy just glides through the song. She was a very special actress and a good singer too. Apart from dropping the sweet wrapper from the tram i can not fault it.
Thank you for this. The amount of talent that made this gift for us is truly astounding. Every "Extra" performer is a substantial talent in themselves and only background because Judy Garland is extraordinary. The costumes, makeup, hair, sets, all so carefully chosen as for a moving painting. The SONG! Vincent Minnelli must have valued his supporting players so much. He sure knew how to give them character and motive and contribute joy. What a director.
Far and away the best version on YT the complete sequence with excellent sound and vision Thanks. I recently looked at Hamilton and dont get the fuss. No comparison I like a song with a tune. Sorry!
It’s new. Nobody who loves the old feels the same way about the new, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Innovation always irritates people and to be judged fairly , must be judged at a fair distance.
Judy Garland recorded "The Trolley Song" in a single take. "The Trolley Song" was ranked #26 and "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" was ranked #72 by the American Film Institute in 2004 on the 100 Greatest Songs in American Films list. "The Trolley Song" had a long and painful gestation period. Producer Arthur Freed was a notoriously inarticulate man, and all he could describe to composers Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane was his desire for "a song for Judy to sing on the trolley." The two songwriters came up with three such numbers, wildly different in tone and rhythm, and Freed summarily turned each one down, reporting that he would "find a place for it" in his upcoming Ziegfeld Follies (1946). What he wanted for this spot, they came to realize, was a number about the trolley itself. Exasperated, Martin and Blane retreated to their local public library to research the history of transportation in St. Louis. One book showed a picture of a turn-of-the-century trolley car, captioned "Clang! Clang! Clang! went the jolly little trolley." The men went to work and, upon hearing the finished product, Freed exclaimed, "That's the song for Judy!"
I am from Belleville Illinois the Meet Me in St Louis house the one from the book is I heard either gone or turned into a Bed and Breakfast but I tell you St Louis with the big buildings not as glam as it used to be the only thing glam is well Shaw's Botanical garden truth the zoo and the art and history place truth
The orchestration and arrangement of the music is at the genius level.
There is no doubt in my mind that this was the best song in the movie.
100%
This and Merry Little Christmas
i’m partial to the boy next door, judy sounds so angelic

Classic. What amazingly beautiful performance art Hollywood produced at one time.

I love the ending where Esther sees John and she's inches away from his face, then gets all shy and sits in her seat!
Judy Garland at her very best, a wonderful movie with great songs, The Trolley Song, pick of the bunch

You mean like Julie Andrews sings The Hills are Alive in the beginning of The Sound of Music in 1966?
Thank you very much Nice video and Nice music
Gal in the blue and white looks like a lot of fun...

The sign he's changing says "SKINKER"... that's correct.. there is a road right by Forest Park in St Louis called "Skinker"...
Did anyone else notice that the little bag she was given, had nothing in it?
There may have been a little bit of popcorn, jelly beans, or peanut brittle in the bottom.
@@arthurharrison1345 but she literally turns it upside down and nothing comes out
Yes, at 2:09 she does turn the peanut bag upside down. I never noticed it, good eye Tasha.
It had one red thing in it, which is barely noticeable when she flips it.
