This is why Adam West was and still IS the best Batman. Yes, it was corny, but it was a lot of fun for everyone. Adam West never took himself too seriously in the role which is what made it so great. We all miss you, Adam! Looking forward to seeing you in that Batcave in the sky some day!
The Original Batman and Robin TV show was a bit of a Comedy anyway ! It definitely was a stray from Realism !!! 🧐🤭🦇 I wonder what Robin was up to that night ?!!
The show was campy and silly. Yet if folks read any of the comics of that time, they would see the show matched up to those readings than the future movies did to their era of comics.
Of course, when I was a child, Adam West was absolutely serious to me, but as I grew older I realized this actor's extraordinary capacity for unintentional comedy. I had the opportunity to see him in person many years ago at a comic book convention in Mexico City and I was shocked to see him in person, with an ambivalent feeling, of immense happiness for my inner child and also seeing a true superstar.
Adam West and company helped shape many kids. If you enjoyed him here, what about the episode where Robin was kidnapped by the Riddler. The beautiful girl said it best: " You shake a pretty mean cape, Batman!" as they were dancing together.
Talented fucker. Adam, we're all going to miss you. You are what SAG-AFTRA was supposed to be all about, and we will never experience your like again, man. RIP, Adam West.
there have been many good batman's over the years, but Adam West was defntly the most elegant of all of them, it was a simpler time, where people were happier... a golden age indeed.
Boy did we enjoy as youngsters, thanks to Adam West or better known as Batman, that crime doesn't pay. If you do the crime make sure you have plenty of time. Please always post only positive comments here. ™
was walking along, minding my business When out of an orange colored sky (Flash, bam, alakazam) Wonderful you came by I was humming a tune, drinking in sunshine When out of that orange colored view (Flash, bam, alakazam) I got a look at you One look and I yelled timber Watch out for flying glass 'Cause the ceiling fell in and the bottom fell out I went into a spin and I started to shout I've been hit (This is it, this is it, I've been hit) I was walking along minding my business When love came and hit me in the eye (Flash, bam, alakazam) Out of an orange colored sky One look and I yelled timber Watch out for flying glass 'Cause the ceiling fell in and the bottom fell out I went into a spin and I started to shout I've been hit (This is it, this is it, I've been hit) I was walking along minding my business When love came and hit me in the eye (Flash, bam, alakazam) Out of an orange colored, purple striped Pretty green polka dot sky (Flash, bam) alakazam and goodbye Wow, I thought love was much softer than that For the most disturbing sound
I plan on going to Hollywood to be in the film business and I want to do a Batman movie series in the 60s style it’s a prequel series much like Star Wars so much you can do with cgi to be bring back their dead actors

Holy bat guano wtf did I just watch? I can't even begin to imagine the sordid, criminal minds that came up with the idea to exploit someone so completely and shamelessly.I never thought that I would feel bad for anyone in Hollywood until I saw this.
As I read this it's coming out 😂 nBatmam's voice in my head and he is punching one gloved hand into the other and....his .....narrative .....is......slowing...........down.Now he's spinning and it's another scene.
Only Adam West could pull this off with a straight face. Brilliant!

live action yes adam was but kevin conroy will always be the best toon batman

exactly, you know he is the best batman, because he always put a smile in your face, and he doesnt even need a knife
The original and best Batman. RIP Adam West 😭🙏
My all-time favorite Batman
I had no idea Adam could sing so well with that fabulous voice of his. If developed, could have been a wonderful crooner.
Brad Cupek Agreed. Much better than most actors who try to sing!
th-cam.com/video/RgHUGtlvwrY/w-d-xo.html
I think he did an album in the 60's.
I am in shock, Adam West had a wonderful singing voice and I did not know, this is a wonderful surprise.
I would have loved for Adam West to have done an album, especially a duet album with Seth MacFarlane. Two crooners singing hits from yester-year.
Dang, I never knew that Adam had such musical talent.
Rest In Peace, Capped Crusader
You cannot get anymore 60s than this!
LOL, exactly!
Corny was extremely cool back in the 60s. 👍

Oh, I think it was intentional. TOngue very firmly in cheek in the Adam West Batman
Great huge fan of the 60s tv show batman never heard of the Hollywood palace before😊
Crazy how Adam west has a sinatra like singing voice he truly was a man of many talents.
A month before he died. I wrote a comment on his Facebook account. Adam West posted a photos of him cooking Thanksgiving dinner. He replied politely.
He was great to the fan on Facebook.
One of my all time favorite superhero actors
I give Adam West 100%for singing like that but a RIP Batman 1928- 2017
He actually sang on the show once. He sang “They call me little buttercup” in the Black Widow episode.
Not bad pipes, either! (I think Burt Ward recorded the same song, but he couldn't have carried a tune if it had handles.)
dammit now i want a batman musical. Adam West you magnificent bastard we miss ya.
It's nowhere near official, but you should check out "Holy Musical B@man!"
Reminds me of Kevin Conroy singing Am I Blue as Batsy as well.
May Adam and Kevin both RIP.
RIP Adam West, September 19, 1928 - June 9, 2017
This makes my life complete
I bid a farewell to the late Adam West and I never forgotten how talented he was and I almost cried when he passed away in 2017
Wow, he really flew down that pole. That was quite a drop!
He also seems completely steady on his feet once he reaches the stage as if he were merely stepping of the curb.
This is amazing
Only Adam West could pull this off as Batman!
He really did slide down that pole.
The did not look to sturdy ,he was use to it, I give the girls that slid down the poles a lot of credit.
Apparently so, yes!
He was the real deal !
I just watched a 5 part Adam West interview today and he talks of the Hollywood Palace, that was pretty cool! Thanks for posting.
Adam West and company helped shape many kids. If you enjoyed him here, what about the episode where Robin was kidnapped by the Riddler. The beautiful girl said it best: " You shake a pretty mean cape, Batman!" as they were dancing together.
Eat your heart out, Frank Sinatra.
And Rest in Peace, fellow Caped Crusader
(1928-2017)
Holy Heartbreak!
You've done it again, Batman.
This is very relevant today!
As a child of the 60's and an avid Fallout 4 player this is surreal.
Hey, he had quite a voice!
That was the year Batman was EVERYWHERE!
True. Tons of Batman merchandise in the stores. That show was the Hannah Montana of its day.
All this singing is contagious.
Talented fucker. Adam, we're all going to miss you. You are what SAG-AFTRA was supposed to be all about, and we will never experience your like again, man. RIP, Adam West.
Amazing, Adam. Forever Batman...!
I'm glad I got to meet him in person. His autographed photo that he signed to me hangs on the wall in my room.
Awesome!... and one question... WHY DOESN'T BATMAN DANCE ANYMORE?
Because the real Batman modern comics Conroy is too serious
Remember the Batusi?
"Back away kids..."
Because he's dead-unfortunately.
Multi talented dude. Rip Adam West. You will always be my favorite Batman.
there have been many good batman's over the years, but Adam West was defntly the most elegant of all of them, it was a simpler time, where people were happier... a golden age indeed.
EXCELLENT!!!!!
What a great idea!
And what a great song! Made famous by Nat King Cole!
So....Adam West was the original Bat-Singer and NOT just Kevin Conroy (RIP to both men).
10 months before I was born.
The Batman looks great!
Now that's art, right there people! Holy Broadway Hoofer, Batman!!!
huge batman fan it's pretty cool
He can sing
Even batmans mortal enemy, joker respected him.
Wonderful
Holy...
The rat pack ? NO, The Bat pack !. KaPow
Holy Handgrenade!
Which explains why he seems to have been accosted by Dean Martin's Gold Diggers (a life-long personal fantasy of mine!)
I am your no.1fan
In the old days these actors were all round entertainers. Not one trick ponies as now.
My Batman!
He sang almost exactly like Kelsey Grammer! In fact, I was waiting to hear : “Frasier has left the building…” 😁
Adam West walks like William Shatner speaks...stilted, jerky and off kilter, 💯 spectacular
Boy did we enjoy as youngsters, thanks to Adam West or better known as Batman, that crime doesn't pay. If you do the crime make sure you have plenty of time.

Pretty cool Rest in ✌
Adam west would have been 11 years old when the first batman comic was published in 1939 😢
Slam Bam Zowie and Wham 4 Evil Crooks came by (pointing at girls) 1:00 1:24
According to my calculations, this was the week my parents convinced me.
Convinced of what?
was walking along, minding my business
When out of an orange colored sky
(Flash, bam, alakazam)
Wonderful you came by
I was humming a tune, drinking in sunshine
When out of that orange colored view
(Flash, bam, alakazam)
I got a look at you
One look and I yelled timber
Watch out for flying glass
'Cause the ceiling fell in and the bottom fell out
I went into a spin and I started to shout
I've been hit
(This is it, this is it, I've been hit)
I was walking along minding my business
When love came and hit me in the eye
(Flash, bam, alakazam)
Out of an orange colored sky
One look and I yelled timber
Watch out for flying glass
'Cause the ceiling fell in and the bottom fell out
I went into a spin and I started to shout
I've been hit
(This is it, this is it, I've been hit)
I was walking along minding my business
When love came and hit me in the eye
(Flash, bam, alakazam)
Out of an orange colored, purple striped
Pretty green polka dot sky
(Flash, bam) alakazam and goodbye
Wow, I thought love was much softer than that
For the most disturbing sound
A darn sight better than Burt Ward's (Robin) awful recording of it with Frank Zappa & The Mothers Of Invention on MGM Records from 1966.
Adam West is Batman
I plan on going to Hollywood to be in the film business and I want to do a Batman movie series in the 60s style it’s a prequel series much like Star Wars so much you can do with cgi to be bring back their dead actors
If you make it you should try to get into the Brave and bold cartoon writers.
u got dis
The next Batman movie must be a musical with a crooning Batman. 🤣🤣
Hi. I have your new ! Channel I like this songs r.i.p. a.w.love u brother
He did better than Robin for sure.
Had lyrics please? :)
Am I the only one who thinks there should've been more singing in this series?
What rabbit hole is this?
handsome
Why don't I remember this? Was it never shown again after it's original broadcast?
Picked to be batman from a commercial he did as a secret agent.
Nyuk nyuk nyuk
What I find sad is Adam West could have done musicals.
it's sad. that he was at a famous A list celebrity hangout restaurant in los angels. in 2012. and tried to get a table. but was refused. he said. it's me adam west. you know batman. and the guy told him to get in the back of the line. 4 hour wait he was embarrassed in front of his group.
he was not famous enough. anymore. a has been
I guess that was before he was Mayor West on Family Guy?
Is this where Harley Quinn got the idea for the big mallet (1:18)?
Imagine if him and Seth MacFarlane had sang together. I wonder why they never did, they were pretty close.
Seems more like something Jim Nabors would pull off !!!! Dressed as GomerPyle !!! Gawwwwwwlllllly !!! 😁😅
Just makes me want to play fallout.
Where's Honey West?
The only thing missing from this performance were the Joker, Riddler, Penguin and Catwoman ,
Jesusssss.
Well i'll be darn !!!
never knew batman was from 2277
How old is he when he performed this? Anyone?
West would have been 37 when this was taped.
2:25 he missed the chance to say on a dime
Hope you love this, Natalie Cole
Marcus Blacknell-Andrews Nat King Cole.
Sounds like Bill Murray doing his SNL Lounge Singer.
patrolling gotham city makes you wish for a nuclear
Adam West (Batman) abuses and causes the death of multiple women while singing "Orange coloured sky" 1966, colourized.
At least he sings better than Robin.
bat sinatra
Wait. Did I take acid?
I think I liked Lynda Carter’s performance with the Muppets better. This is so bad, it’s funny!
Holy bat guano wtf did I just watch? I can't even begin to imagine the sordid, criminal minds that came up with the idea to exploit someone so completely and shamelessly.I never thought that I would feel bad for anyone in Hollywood until I saw this.

Its cringe but he has good singing
Lol I suspect he was a huge hot with women... likely had a very interesting dating life
this is stupid i never saw this before; looks Sunday night before school with my parents
Thats so not Batman
Great stage. Horrible idea.
Cantaban muy bien!!!!
