- This was obtained from an extremely old, very used, very dusty and cracked record. Must admit I was not sure about whether or whether not to put this one up on this channel, however the music and song is clear, therefore I will leave it for others to judge.
Blackadder: Well as far as I can tell the message was "He's got a Terrible Lion Up his end, so there's an Advantage to an Enema at Once"
Message reads: "Where are you, you bastard?"
What a fine lyric tenor voice, there was something that reminded me of Dick Powell. Kenny Baker's voice could possibly have been suited to L'elisir d'amore or possibly The Barber of Seville in the same vein as Tito Schipa. I have never heard of him until now so thank you for uploading this great recording.
He has a wonderful lyric tenor voice! He starred in a version of the Mikado for television in 39 and sang beautifully. His high notes possess great power! Thank you very much for posting this!
This song was used in Blackadder Goes Fourth a few times.
And they pinched the Lord High Executioner title for S2E2.
You needn't worry. Kenny Baker's Nanki-Poo was praised by none other than Audrey Williamson, a definitive critic.
That movie ('36 or '39 -- I can't remember) got for posterity the great Martyn Green.
Pedantic critics called Kenny Baker "...a crooner." I just call him "a singer."
