I'm 63 and I had never heard this song. I've listened to it now five times...the first four by the Andrew Sisters and this one. Hot House West? They are great!!! And apologies to the Andrew Sisters but this version is better. I'm now a new fan.
This was such a fun day! It definitely captures the energy we strive to create in our live performances. Hopefully you can catch a show one day! Thanks for watching.
A great song with quite a history. Originally a Yiddish song "Bei Mir Bistu Shein" (to me you're beautiful). The name changed to "Bay Mir Bistu Sheyn" when used in a musical in 1932. The name changed again to the German flavor with the Andrews Sisters 1937 hit and now known as "Bei mir bist du schön" as in the video title. It's really a Yiddish folk song that works very well in a jazz environment.
Nothing changed. Yiddish is written in the Hebrew script, so any transliteration into the Latin alphabet is not the REAL name, but an approximation. "Bei Mir Bistu Shein" is an accurate transliteration, as it accurately conveys the pronunciation of the Yiddish. "Bay Mir Bistu Sheyn" is simply the sort of mistake you would expect from an American who can't speak Yiddish. "Bei mir bist du schön" is just wrong: it's German, not Yiddish, and the pronunciation of the last word is totally different. What MATTERS is how it is sung, and that is most correctly reflected by "Bei Mir Bistu Shein."
@@DieFlabbergast Well they certainly are not pronouncing it as a German "schön" with a dipthong vowel but rather more like "shane" which I hope sounds more like Yiddish. "Shane" does rhyme with "explain" anyway, so that makes sense. "Shein" is only a phonetic spelling in German or Yiddish. I don't see any problem with spelling it German as Yiddish is just a German dialect, anyway, but I admit, I had to read through the comments to find out if there was any explaination of that pronunciation and yes there is. Cool. Love comments.
Wow thank you so much! I feel so lucky to get to make music with these incredible humans, I’m so glad you have enjoyed it because we had a blast making it!!!
We can't get enough of that swing rhythm! Turns out it still feels good after all these years! Thanks for listening! We recorded this on our upcoming album and it sounds great! If you're interested in supporting that project, here is a link to our Kickstarter: kck.st/3qnz578 We're getting close to meeting our funding goal with 6 days to go!
@@HotHouseWest And I will bet that you will NEVER get enough of that swing rhythm because I am 72 and I still can't get enough of it. Mind you, I started young, even younger than you folks because my father played Dixieland and swing trumpet professionally. So I heard it, and Latin music, from newborn on, my brother became a jazz drummer, I became a dancer, including swing dancer, and an Afro-Latin percussionist. I adapted some of my instruments to swing and blues and played in jazz and Latin bands for years, AND I STILL CAN'T GET ENOUGH GOOD SWING MUSIC (or good salsa, for that matter), and VERY HAPPILY SO. It'll keep you young (I dance high-end salsa literally to this day, for lack of much happening around me in uptempo swing). It will all keep you energized, it'll keep you enjoying life and otherwise pay you enormous benefits, SO KEEP IT UP!!! But know, my friends, that bands can be a demanding labour of love at times so when it's an uphill task keeping it all together, know that that is just part of the swing musician life sometimes. Keep up the splendid cooking and good luck! You do something VERY IMIPORTANT for society by keeping the spirit of swing music and dance alive because the joy and spontaneity of it is, among other things, healing for people.
Thanks for listening! We’re working to build momentum so that we can make a European tour happen in 2025. Thanks for watching and commenting! It makes a difference. Happy new year!
Wow Love this Version!!! Have you Heard about the German Serie Babylon Berlin? The Musik acts are also stunning . You have to watch!!!! Greetings from Germany 😊
Thank you so much! This was a really fun arrangement for guitar. Many of the background lines for guitar/violin are built off of Django lines. It was fun to reimagine them as big band backgrounds. We’re glad you enjoyed! We’re excited to put more music out with this group.
Thank you so much! We had an absolute blast making this video from start to finish. We just released a new video. th-cam.com/video/VWmM2ON_o3A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=TJlrJakqyhD9i1pl Enjoy!
bro I got this. im just getting ready to get a bunch of view on my channel(s). We gonna do old swing with new swing this century and sorta get people out of the hookup culture mindset. More of a love revolution hopefully if you like.
We’re glad you enjoyed it! We had a super time arranging, recording, and producing this! Stay tuned for more. We’ll be releasing another music video on New Year’s!
Absolutely brilliant; the chart, the soloists, the vocals, the ensemble playing, dancing, the mini-mini stories in the video, and the superb quality of the audio and video. What a pleasure to see and hear this top drawer production! Thank you!
Thanks for tuning in! We love our community. It was a blast to pull such talented people together for this. We’re glad it’s connecting with people. Cheers 😍
It’s pretty exciting when these moments come into being! We’re working on introducing a lot more opportunities for our local community to encounter and experience swing live and in person. Keep an eye out wherever you are! There a lots of great organizations that promote and teach swing dancing! If you want to learn to play, we’re working on educational content right now that will be available through our website. Stay tuned!

Swing music is the the utter, ultimate BEST!
You’re preaching to the choir! It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing man
@@HotHouseWest Amen! You cats are REALLY blowin' up a storm!
Very energetic and beautiful sounds
Brilliant and captivating.
Thanks for listening! We’re starting to look to the next one. All the positive feedback is really inspiring.
Well, my opinion is... WOW. I want to live in that dance hall.
This was such a fun day! It definitely captures the energy we strive to create in our live performances. Hopefully you can catch a show one day! Thanks for watching.
If you will come to Italy, I will be there! @@HotHouseWest

Thanks!
Woohoo! Super stickers work
Кайф ! За окном минус 50 ! А на душе лето😊❤❤❤
We have our music to keep us warm! ❤️🙏
Замахни рюмочку - и уже +40 в душе!
Зачем водочку, от этой еврейской песни и так тепло и радостно, потому что "bei mir bust du schon"!
Фантастические еврейские народные песни и танцы согреют любую душу даже при - 50 градусах! Но если bei mir bust du schoen, то все O'K Fus❤
Браво!)

I love digging through jazz history. Thank you for sharing your discovery
