Fun Fact: This scene was added spontaneously. A member of the band "The Avalon Boys" was on set and played this song during a break. They actually sang it live, except for Stan's low and high parts.
You're thinking of the soft shoe shuffle scene, which wasn't in the shooting script (the Lonesome Pine scene, on the other hand, *was* in the script). It's now believed that the dance idea arose spontaneously during a filming break.
fuck'in class....you said it my friend, if you don't find this funny then get yourself a razor or a noose. 53 & haven't seen this since I was about 6-7 years old..STILL brings a smile to my face. 😀😁😂😜
I would also like to add that Stan Laurel learned early on in their film career how important the camera look was in a scene to get another laugh. No one could do the cameral look better than Oliver Hardy could when Stan did something stupid or was in the process of doing it. It made it all the funnier. Ollie did the camera look several times in this film and that really added to it. This is one of their best. A couple of more of my favorites that they did was "Towed in a Hole" and " County Hospital". Their will never be another pair like them.
@@Eddie_Schantz I always loved that camera look. It's like he's connecting with you. I was waiting for it in this scene, but he actually doesn't do it here.
The best comedy duo ever to grace our screens pure comedy at its very finest I only have to look at then and I'm laughing absolute masters of their craft it's an honour to watch Stan and Holly 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Brilliant ! Absolutely brilliant. I had forgotten just how funny Laurel and Hardy were. And STILL are. It is a great shame their films are not shown on British t.v anymore.
I love the little flourish Hardy did with the mallet before he handed it back to the bartender! This was the days when singing belonged to the every-day ordinary guy. When it was time to sing the national anthem, someone led it, but EVERYBODY SANG IT! Today, we apparently must drag a "star" out of the bowels of The Entertainment Industry to do it for us... and they get up and butcher it so that nobody can sing along! I wouldn't mind taking a mallet to some of them!
I would also like to know this. Was everything okay, as she was told it would be? Drowning under frozen ice trapped in a stricken aircraft doesn't seem like any sort of positive outcome. The thing with NDEs is, no-one actually dies.
I only have to listen to this to remember my Dad. He loved Laurel and Hardy and had a brilliant sense of humour. I had this play at his cremation. He would have been smiling.
14 is now 98 as of writing this. I think those people just need to be taken blindfolded out to the end of a precipice somewhere high up and pushed off.......put them out of their misery. If God himself could have written comedy and pair 2 guys together then Stan and Ollie would have been his blueprint. Legends.
@@andycross9840 It's 100 today. Some people are just Bad and Wrong and Sad. It's that simple. A precipice? Is that what Stan and Ollie would have done? :) 2500+ votes:) So about 3% we should pity :)
the two funniest men to ever walk the face of the earth and be forever captured on celluloid for future generations to witness real comedy by two beautiful human beings ... never equalled or bettered
Yes, all our supposedly brilliant technology today has pushed away classic, talent-driven light entertainment into a tiny fraction of the mountain of options on a TV or screen near you. All that technology, yet so much misery guts fare via it. People in the West have forgotten how to entertain and how to be entertained.
Quite likely it was commonplace in saloon bars of the 'Wild West' for the proprietor to keep a variety of weapons to hand - as well as objects such as mallets, hammers, bats & pokers that could be pressed into service as weapons - just for when things (perhaps quite frequently) kicked off.
Way Out West is such a classic. Beautiful music, hilarious comedy, and one of the best of the best " tell me about my dear dear daddy. Is he really dead?" Stan- " well we hope he is. They buried him" Haha classic
i just now noticed that the Barkeep's Expression changed when Laurel started singing Women's Soprano! Watch his eyes when stan changes to the women's soprano.
Superb. A surprise hit in the 70's (after both of these comic geniuses had unfortunately passed away). Way out west had some great lines such as when Finn and his girlfriend are trying to fleece the boys into thinking she is Mary Roberts. Real Mary knocks at the door. Finn: Who is it? Real Mary: Mary. Stan: Mary who? Finn: err...Mary Christmas Classic
Four candles is good but this is waaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy out in front and will never be topped. The fall at the end is genius on its own. He doesn't break his expression at all. Ollie, testing the mallet on the bar........Priceless. My old man and me would laugh like hell every Saturday morning watching Stan and Ollie and this film was our fav. Our heroes every Saturday.
Blimey, Oliver Hardy was a good singer. Also liked the bit where Stan Laurel, while singing with a woman's voice, waggles his hat and grins - found that very funny.
Hard to believe that there's ppl out there who's never seen Laurel and Hardy I've always loved them so much growing up :-) my fav fav short film of there's if you've not seen it you def should is the 19min classic TOAD IN THE HOLE, were they buy a fishing boat to do it up with hilarious results, its so funny from start to end. You'll laugh so much you'll buckle your ribs and if like me you'll cry with laughter. Checkitout ppl. Your welcome.
+Vincent Macek I was born in 72, but I remember them playing this very video on Top of the Pops. My entire family was entertained as it played, as everyone stopped to watch it. It's still a classic all these years later. Superb :)
@@CartoonsKick The song was originally written in 1913, and you can be sure it would have been all but forgotten by now if it hadn't been for Laurel & Hardy's performance in _Way Out West_
Beautiful. Babe could sing - I mean, properly sing. And the timing is note-perfect - from 1:20 to 1:40 Babe does all the work to set up the gag (despite not having a line) and Stan gets the punchline. They were perfect together - nobody else comes close.
Excellent. I'm 36 adore these two geniuses
Immortal and deservedly so. :-D :-D
My mom saw them on stage when they toured the UK after the war.
They will never be forgotten greatest comedy duo ever
Fun Fact: This scene was added spontaneously. A member of the band "The Avalon Boys" was on set and played this song during a break. They actually sang it live, except for Stan's low and high parts.
Wow, it's brilliant! But then, so were they!
❤❤
Love watching Laurel and Hardy and I love this song I never get tired of seeing they films 😂😂

@juliepashko7458 good old time fun
I could watch this clip 24/ 7 and not get sick of it 😂❤
Oliver had a lovely singing voice. I loved them both. Often watch this.
Sammy Gent It’s a shame we can’t tell them how much we still love their great work.
Yep Ollie could have made a living as a singer.
Loved watching them as a child, still do as a 50 year old. Timeless!!🤣🤣
100%
spot on
If this does not lift your heart you are officially dead!
Remind me when I was 6 & 7 in the 70s...
I’m officially dead🫠
fuck'in class....you said it my friend, if you don't find this funny then get yourself a razor or a noose. 53 & haven't seen this since I was about 6-7 years old..STILL brings a smile to my face. 😀😁😂😜
@@carolh5376 oh c'mon babygirl.. where's that sense of humour I know you've got. 😜😝🇬🇧
This song is literally my happy place in my head. Anytime I'm stressed, this video just plays in my head and everything is simple and happy again.
Oh yes, absolutely, the same thing goes for me! These two were two angels in disguise!
This song is getting played at my Grandads funeral next week 👼🏼❤️
Kenneth Gray classic I think your grandad would appreciate this I know I would
So how was it?
Just saw performed in “Stan and. Ollie”, wonderful tribute film,. Think I’ll have it sung at my funeral too!
75 people must be sad bitter folk to not like this
They did an excellent job with this country classic. Laurel and Hardy's comedy has stood the test of time.
Hardy's facial expression's are those of a true comic genius.
I would also like to add that Stan Laurel learned early on in their film career how important the camera look was in a scene to get another laugh. No one could do the cameral look better than Oliver Hardy could when Stan did something stupid or was in the process of doing it. It made it all the funnier.

A couple of more of my favorites that they did was "Towed in a Hole" and " County Hospital". Their will never be another pair like them.
Oliver Hardy was the master of the slow burn.
@@Eddie_Schantz I always loved that camera look. It's like he's connecting with you. I was waiting for it in this scene, but he actually doesn't do it here.
@@MrThermostatic Absolutely. When Ollie does the camera look, he is taking you/us into his confidence that you will fully agree with him.
And the expressions of Stan are those of a true comic idiot.
Still cracks me up the way Ollie tests the hammer before landing Stan a right belter!!
that kind of subtle nuance makes them genius
And swings it out of sight to switch for a soft one before the hit.
This is TRUE comedy, no swears or smut. Classic L&H...gone but never forgotten. Way out west is my favourite!
I totally concur...the best. My grandson want to watch this every time he visits.
Agree 100%..53 years old I am and this has me splitting my sides everytime I see it
I'm 14, and I actually appreciate this lol. It's very entertaining, and gave me lots of laughs. We have the entire set. 😂
Excellent. Best comedy duo ever.
This is classic Laurel & Hardy. Comedic genius, lol, funny!
"If anybody cries at my funeral, I'll never speak to them again." -Stan Laurel
Ollie's expressions are hillarious.
I love this sketch, simple, funny and beautifully performed with exquisite timing.
I know it's coming but when Stan's voice goes high I still laugh like a drain.
I can't hear this song without thinking of them. The two most universally beloved comedians of all time. :)
Fascial expressions are great. Comic genius.
The best comedy duo ever to grace our screens pure comedy at its very finest I only have to look at then and I'm laughing absolute masters of their craft it's an honour to watch Stan and Holly 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love this so much. It ALWAYS makes me smile. Happy days !!!
Absolute total genius. Babe's actions and expressions are pure gold.
Brilliant ! Absolutely brilliant. I had forgotten just how funny Laurel and Hardy were. And STILL are. It is a great shame their films are not shown on British t.v anymore.
Ollie’s face when Stan starts singing in that soprano voice 😂😂😂😂😂😂

@@Togidubnus whats that got to do with laurel and hardy
I absolutely love them true comedy genius's no one on planet earth could ever replace them
R.I.P

From Outaspace & Taste !
102 now
Still 102.
I really want to pick their brains and figure out what's going on with them
Such talented comedians, hilarious. I love everything they did.
Seriously who could dislike this?! Genius' of comedy and cinema!
Beautiful. My Gran and Papa introduced me to these two unrivalled comedic geniuses when i was a boy. Sheer talent at its finest.
So innocent its beautiful - brings a tear to the eye
Stan laural really was a comic geniues and the brains behind the show he was a work horse even kept writeing after oliver died miss them so much
Love this song ❤
I catch myself singing this song , during the day, just out of the blue
the two funniest men to ever walk the face of the earth and be forever captured on celluloid for future generations to witness real comedy by two beautiful human beings ... never equalled or bettered
The funniest comediens.
Ever.
I've not heard that for over 30 years. Brilliant!! This is what the world need's more of, today:)

@@Dustshoe Indeed. Today, even the singers cannot sing where once, the comedians could!
Laurel and hardy best double act of all time. Rip 👍👍👍👍
I just love these guys, they were so funny and awesome! ❤😂
I love that you can order a hammer at this bar. :D
+Clint Dlowrev Well you can order a screwdriver can't you? ;3
Good one. :D
I thought getting hammered was pretty common at a bar.
Good point. I must have gotten that wrong all my life.
Quite likely it was commonplace in saloon bars of the 'Wild West' for the proprietor to keep a variety of weapons to hand - as well as objects such as mallets, hammers, bats & pokers that could be pressed into service as weapons - just for when things (perhaps quite frequently) kicked off.
Gold dust . Outstanding
This never gets old.
Way Out West is such a classic. Beautiful music, hilarious comedy, and one of the best of the best
" tell me about my dear dear daddy. Is he really dead?"
Stan- " well we hope he is. They buried him"
Haha classic
+chris Morrison "Why aren't you Mary Roberts?" LOL, LOL, LOL
"He died of a Tuesday"
I love it when Stan Laurel says " if we don't get that deed back, I will eat your hat", and Hardy says. "now that's what I call determination"
Simply the best
just beautiful reminds me of my childhood
Best ever....Will never beat this.
The RHYTHM of this scene is something incredibile! Rhythm of voice, of movements, of facial's expressions, incredible
Glenn Johnson CLASSIC.There will never be another Stan and Olly.
Wonderful, wonderful
i just now noticed that the Barkeep's Expression changed when Laurel started singing Women's Soprano! Watch his eyes when stan changes to the women's soprano.
The best that there has ever been.just love em
Mr Stan Laurel the U.K s best export ever........these two were sooooo funny.
Biggest bag of Donkey shite EVER !
You sir are a man of good taste then.I salute you.
***** garbage. Amazing that someone made a million dollars from wearing a pair of stupid trousers.
the best comedy team of all time! hands down.
Nothing beats Laurel and Hardy!
Smashing! They put a lot of so-called modern comedians to shame. Watched them as a kid, still love them. Going in for another round!
Best comedians ever😊😂😂
If any of you cry at my funeral,i'll never speak to you again.Stan laurel
Superb. A surprise hit in the 70's (after both of these comic geniuses had unfortunately passed away). Way out west had some great lines such as when Finn and his girlfriend are trying to fleece the boys into thinking she is Mary Roberts.
Real Mary knocks at the door.
Finn: Who is it?
Real Mary: Mary.
Stan: Mary who?
Finn: err...Mary Christmas
Classic
Perfection!
We played it at my Dad’s funeral along with Groucho’s ‘ Lydia the tatood Lady ‘
My favourite scene of all of them! XD
Could watch it all day.
I'm. Pleased I'm old enough to appreciate this
my absolute new favorite song, i cant stop thinkin about it
I've never actually seen Laurel and Hardy, I just know about them. Terrific. Definitely going to go out of my way to watch now. :)
@@PokerDaft Great movie that, really enjoyed it

Two geniuses of comedy. Stan and Ollie. The best..
Just seen the film stan & ollie and this was in it, fantastic film. Comic genius which was so unique and hilarious
perfect harmonising brilliant two legends
Blimey, Oliver Hardy was a good singer. Also liked the bit where Stan Laurel, while singing with a woman's voice, waggles his hat and grins - found that very funny.
That must be from Stan's sojourn in old-time music hall. Vaudeville and such.
A classic in every sense of the word.
The dons. When I watch physical comedy now, I always see scenarios and stunts that were written by Stan Laurel. The funniest double act ever, for me.
This was from before I was born, but its still got that moon shine!
Christmas number 2 in the singles chart 1975 ;-)
Due to John Peel playing it on BBC radio.
COMEDY PERFECTION.
Hard to believe that there's ppl out there who's never seen Laurel and Hardy I've always loved them so much growing up :-) my fav fav short film of there's if you've not seen it you def should is the 19min classic TOAD IN THE HOLE, were they buy a fishing boat to do it up with hilarious results, its so funny from start to end.

Legends of comedy
For ever Eternal genius in this crazy world 🗺
Fun fact: Oliver Hardy started his career as an Vaudeville singer. He sang for silent film slides
Amazingly it was a hit in the UK in the 70s.
CLASSIC, SUPERB !
They are both genius.
I love that this charted on British radio in the early 70s!
+Vincent Macek It made no 1 I think.

Without doubt two of the greats of all time I still laugh at them now
Ollie just take that mic, & come in...
LOVE em..
The bar tender always cracks me up !
Absolutely perfect...
Adore it, every time I go to west VA I sing this song.
GEE OLLIE THIS IS A SUPER SONG 🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵

One of my faves!!
