@@rebeccassweetmusic4632 It was such an adorable and playful voice disguise here. It strikes me as a generic European accent, with maybe some hints of Russian flavor there. It's the sort of voice I'd expect a gypsy to have in an old movie from the 1940's.
@@eduardo_corrochio My first thought was that she was voicing a playful French woman until she pronounced warm with a V. It definitely sounded like a sort of generic but cute Russian accent
Lily Tomlin was so gracious, giving credit to so many other performers. Not sure if she "got" Wally Bruner's reference to the New York telephone company, or if she decided not to 'take the bait', and not respond as her character Ernestine, the telephone operator. "One ringy dingy." "Have I reached the party to whom I am speaking?" I was around nine years old when Laugh In was in its heyday, and I know all the political and social references sailed right over my head. We did not have a colour t.v. at this time, so we missed much of the psychedelic glory of Laugh In, unfortunately. My favourite Lily Tomlin character was Edith Anne, the little girl in the giant rocking chair. And that's the troooooooth!!!
Lily's delightful album of Edith Anne comedy from 1972 is on RUclips, and it's a real pleasure of a listen: ruclips.net/p/OLAK5uy_mXS5chqizByRK-cDVThD5yOQK6XSL6Hps Tip: listen to it with headphones. I found it much better that way.
She was so beautiful and so poised for such a young performer. What a wonderful time this was, before all the insane lefties took over and ruined everything. R.I.P. Hollyweird.
Man, what a powerhouse of talent she was and is. One of my favorite entertainers. Lily's always so winning and nice and sharp.
I agree! Do you know what accent she was trying to do? It sounded so sexy to me, and she made me melt when she did that 😍

@@rebeccassweetmusic4632 True
@@AlexandreLimberger It wasn't German. My father's family is German and I know the accent well.
Lily was fantastic on "Laugh-In" back in the day!😀
The huge career she went on to have. I Love her.
