I'm really dissapointed not everyone appreciates this version of the song, Al Bowlly and Les Allen were such a great duo and they should get the recognition they deserve. RIP Al Bowlly RIP Les Allen
I love Al and I especially love his years with Ray Noble. I ended up buying a book about Al in around 2015 and lost it after moving. I can't even think of the name but if I do I'll post it, because I'm sure you'll like it, if you don't have it already @stevenedwardson
After googling it 10 seconds after I commented, it is called "They Called Him Al" which is in reference to when he did "Brother, can you spare a dime?" which is one of the lyrics. I highly recommend the book.
I am more used to the Tiny Tim ‘s version, absolutely love it(because of SpongeBob too) But this one is so good. I am a little disappointed that the Tiny Tim’s version is called “creepy”, the song is beautiful
@@bradparker1713 I am not sure when this started. But i have seen on the people internet saying that they find this song creepy. I think it’s because it was used in one horror movie Personally I love this song.
@@bradparker1713 Part of Tiny Tim's character was that he was a mentally ill dude from Iowa, I think being unsettling to some folks was kind of the point all along.
@@bradparker1713 Believe me, Tiny Tim has always been considered "creepy". He played up the strangeness a lot. I suggest looking up his song "The Other Side" and the spoken word piece "The Viper" to see what I mean.
@@AlexDeLarge1 That's on purpose for his 'persona'. He's supposed to be strange. Also @CheapSkateGamer96 His 'persona' and himself weren't mentally ill and they weren't from Iowa. He was just a lonely man and became strange to not feel lonely. It might sound strange, but it was the 60s!
Then a silly guy came looking for a song to remix to recreate the feeling of a progressive disease that slowly destroys the mental functions of a person
@@viniciusc.5480 Nah this feels pre-Tom and Jerry. They never really had this rubberhose-style music. This would be at home in a really early Looney Tune, or especially an old Disney or Universal short.
Currently in the middle of listening to Everywhere at the End of Time for the first time, so this is definitely a big change in tone from that, in a good way. I like listening to music from this era. He may be long gone, but Bowlly can still invoke a wide range of emotions in us. The Caretaker (James Leyland Kirby) himself has said that had Bowlly not died in the war, he may have become bigger than Bing Crosby. As it is, it's sad to think that he died so relatively young in the Blitz, and was buried in a mass grave with other bombing victims too. I'm glad that even nearly a century on, he still resonates with audiences.
i saw this and was genuinely so scared that was just another ai cover but words cannot express how HAPPY i am this is an actual cover of the song by al bowlly himself
Pay attention to the different forms of the main melody from the vocalists, fiddle, saxophone, band. Perfectly encapsulates late 1920s style. 0:10 muted Trumpets 0:20 violin/fiddle in a harmonized version 0:30 saxophones play the minor run aka pillar 2 0:41 back to fiddle 0:52 back to vocalists Saxophones usually play a mood piece, since they were known for their ghostly timbre and it's a truly beautiful thing. There's a gorgeous piece from 1915 that knocked my socks off with the solo.
@@DatplungermonkewithLMQFHey pal. Pfff where do i even start?🤔 First of all; Great comment, good structure and most important of all... it’s made with passion😁 Keep up the good work, over and out, Dattebayo 🗣‼
As a teen, I love this music. Crooners and torch singers go so hard. Sinatra, Day, Fitzgerald, Martin, Davis jr, Bowlly. So glad we had our own crooners here in the UK too.
It is all but Summer 2024 - from where I am - look out for 78 rpm at car boot sales and junk shops - many recordings from Al and many others may still be waiting to be discovered
SpongeBob sang Tiny Tim's version. Though, Tiny Tim was an avid record collector, and particularly liked music from this era (Nick Lucas's version of Tiptoe Through the Tulips was recorded around the same time).
Just for those who might be curious, $1 in 1930 is around $18.89 today, which means that the coffee that only costs a dime in this song would cost around $1.89-1.90 today, which is pretty cheap for a decent cup of coffee.
I always felt kinda sorry for this guy. He got killed by a bomb during the blitz, and he's only remembered now as a soundtrack to horror. First The Shining, but hey maybe he could be revived in the internet age through file sharing. It's horror again and the kids of the Shining's original audience know him as the guy whose music was remixed into a dementia simulator album series.
Man, I have not grew up at that time where things were different, I can imagine those days were much simpler and refreshing at that time compare to today's world. It is always good to be present and to make as much memories as possible.
@@monsterftw4481 Then World War II rolled around... If you were living in England by that time, you oughta have get used to rationing. And if you're a seaman? Well... Just hope your Ship doesn't get sunk by U-Boats until the time the Allies start to develop tactics and weapons to fight them. And if you do get sunk, well... Hopefully you get back home alive.
He performed it with Sid Phillips and his melodians. Sid Phillips actually wrote a track called Sugar Beat for KPM music, which was used in the Spongebob episode "Doing Time" when Mrs. Puff is having a good time in jail.
Wow, thank you good man for bringing this masterpiece that I had never found until now, in fact I found out a year ago that Al Bowlly had sung this song, By the way, it was lost for a long time, how did you find it?
I'm really dissapointed not everyone appreciates this version of the song, Al Bowlly and Les Allen were such a great duo and they should get the recognition they deserve.
RIP Al Bowlly
RIP Les Allen
Im pretty sure this is AI
@@miguenlanguen2459 Nope! Check the wikipedia, it's genuinely sang by him and Les Allen.
My local musium in Co.Down has a newspaper from I believe 1936 advertising the latest Les Allen hit -complect with his photograph

Unexpectedly wholesome lol
@@explosiveboi6692 that also
Al Bowlly is the GOAT of his era! His song "Heartaches" is probably my favorite song of the early 1930s!
Then a silly guy came looking for a song to remix to recreate the feeling of a progressive disease that slowly destroys the mental functions of a person
I never knew Al Bowlly singed this!
*sang
Me too
this sounds like something i would hear out of 1930-1933 looney tunes
Tom & Jerry too.
@@viniciusc.5480 Nah this feels pre-Tom and Jerry. They never really had this rubberhose-style music. This would be at home in a really early Looney Tune, or especially an old Disney or Universal short.
@@weathermansam2 Yeah, Tom and Jerry had stuff more like Raymond Scott's quintet from later in the 1930s.
Definetly something my great grandfather would show me,ah,its been just a year and i still miss him
amazing crossover
@Uttployal8008 starbaker
@Uttployal8008 a car-taker yes
Rest in peace to this great man
genuinely pleasant
this music is snazzy! real swell!
Al Bowlly is an underappreciated artist from his time
This thumbnail is so wholesome, I love it so much!
Remember when Al Bowlly said "It's Bowlly time." And then Bowllied all over the place
Lmfao
The real Bowlly’s were the friends we made along the way
I don't rember
Can’t believe I just read that.

as a guy who loves 30s music, this is absolutely perfect :)
It’s really sad that Al bowly couldn’t live to the 70s-80s like his contemporaries
As a teen, I love this music. Crooners and torch singers go so hard.
Sinatra, Day, Fitzgerald, Martin, Davis jr, Bowlly. So glad we had our own crooners here in the UK too.
I love this song! And i also love the older SpongeBob as well. They don't make songs like this anymore.
I am a italian, i think That song it's very Beautifoul and I LOVE AL BOWLLY 🖤🩶
It's so nice to see so many people enjoying this old music. I love it and here I thought I was the only one.
Thats really beautiful🥺🤧
This sure brings me back…
It is all but Summer 2024 - from where I am - look out for 78 rpm at car boot sales and junk shops - many recordings from Al and many others may still be waiting to be discovered
@JustABowlOfCherries We all need luck
Eu nunca havia escutado essa versão.
Maravilhoso.
Oh, splendid
I'VE BEEN WAITNG FOR A NEW SONG, LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
this song was origionaly from along time ago🙂
SpongeBob sang Tiny Tim's version. Though, Tiny Tim was an avid record collector, and particularly liked music from this era (Nick Lucas's version of Tiptoe Through the Tulips was recorded around the same time).
It's safe to say that Tiny Tim had heard this version along with many others when he decided to cover this song, himself!
Just for those who might be curious, $1 in 1930 is around $18.89 today, which means that the coffee that only costs a dime in this song would cost around $1.89-1.90 today, which is pretty cheap for a decent cup of coffee.
I'M SO FUCKING HAPPY RIGHT NOW AND IT'S CAUSING HEARTBURN. AUGHHHH, THANK YOU SO MUCH. I might cry. 😢
The orchestra sounds exactly like George Olsen's older tracks. It's nice!!!
Good song from the past.
it's amazing
I mean, that's about the way I'm trying to live
Thank you for posting this. Definetley will boost my mood for the week.
Definitely would’ve been a hit in that time period lollll
My favorite crooner ever besides Sinatra
👍👍👍nice
love that old beat up guitar
We need a version of them and Bing Crosby, he did a version of this song also.
I always felt kinda sorry for this guy. He got killed by a bomb during the blitz, and he's only remembered now as a soundtrack to horror.
First The Shining, but hey maybe he could be revived in the internet age through file sharing. It's horror again and the kids of the Shining's original audience know him as the guy whose music was remixed into a dementia simulator album series.
I don't know why but i love al bowlly songs
I never knew al bowlly was as prolific as he is

Not quite a nice as you might think. The great depression was in its first year, and the great dust bowl happened around this time.

This is a masterpiece. That's Bowlly on the high harmony, isn't it?
Relatable music

Who invited my man sprinkledud to the party 😭🙏
Wow, thank you good man for bringing this masterpiece that I had never found until now, in fact I found out a year ago that Al Bowlly had sung this song, By the way, it was lost for a long time, how did you find it?
There's a website that features Al Bowlly's entire discography, which is where I found this
www.albowlly.club/discography.html
@@BowllyTime1931 Wow, I didn't know that page existed, I was always wondering what it would sound like for Al Bowlly to sing Living in the Sunlight.
iconic
How did you find this specific record to be posted on TH-cam?
I’m actually flabbergasted, is “Living In The Sunlight” actually this old!?
Bowlly is *the* crooner, but Les' work on this record is real good too. I have a 78 of Les' recording of Vera Lynn's famous We'll Meet Again

Although I prefer Tiny Tim's version, I also really like this one and it's a delight to my ears 😌😌
Bro SpongeBob is straight up chillin, didn’t know he was around then.
spogne😊
you can distinctly hear a second voice
I think the captions are having a stroke
If Al Bowlly [not this Bowlly, the Al from the 30s and 20s] Didn’t die the way he did, maybe he would have done this.
Does anybody know who the other vocalist is? He sounds familiar. Jack Hylton maybe?
Les Allen
@@eyeslikeautumn Thank you very much
Wish coffee was a dime and not an amount that cripples my finances.
awe heack nah, they got splourgingbing on Ally Bowtie's lap💀💀
He just chillin
Fun fact:
Al Bowlly died during a German bombardment. His door had been exploded off its hinges, crushing him.
Knowing that gives you a different feeling when listening to him singing "When that man is dead and gone"
@@StrangeScaryNewEngland Ironically. His last song.
If Al Bowlly was in Insidious (instead of the shining) and SpongeBob
