I love Betty Hutton (1921-2007)...I don't think that there were any female entertainers before her or any who come after her who will ever match her infectious energy and balls to the wall style. Funny, in-your-face, AND she can carry a tune. Better yet, she has a wonderful middle range voice that allows anyone to sing along. Performers come and go, but there will never be anyone else quite like her. When God made her, he definitely broke the mold.♥
She is from my parents time but when I first saw Betty Hutton she reminded me of Gilda Ratner. Kind of goofy, kind of loud, but fun to watch. Please don't hate me!
I love her because she doesn’t just rely on sex appeal like a lot of other stars. She uses her own personality in her acting style, which is fun and super energetic with a strong unique voice
I saw this movie many years ago in the days of my (better living through chemistry) misspent youth. We were smoking some good ganja and watching TNN out of Atlanta (Ted Turner had bought hundreds of these old movies). We were floored by this song and were tripping on it. I didn't find it on here until a few years back. Hutton was a damn good singer and actress.
I gotta move, I gotta move That's what I tell my landlord, "Landlord, I gotta move" 'Cause there's a man, lives right upstairs from me Making a nightmare of some melody This is a situation not likely to improve He goes-a rumble, rumble, rumble on the left hand He goes-a tinkle, tinkle, tinkle on the right Rumble, rumble, rumble, tinkle, tinkle, tinkle Plays piano all night He goes-a rumble, rumble, rumble on the bottom He goes-a tinkle, tinkle, tinkle on the top Rumble, rumble, rumble, tinkle, tinkle, tinkle Positively won't stop I tried-a knock-a, knock-a, knocking on the ceiling I tried-a knock-a, knock-a, knocking on the wall He takes a breather, no, he doesn't either Just when I figure that's all He goes-a rumble, rumble, rumble on the black keys He goes-a tinkle, tinkle, tinkle on the white Rumble, rumble, rumble, tinkle, tinkle, tinkle Plays piano all right but he plays piano all night Instead of cooking himself a quiet kettle of tea up there Or maybe getting himself a girl and taking her out somewhere Instead of sitting around, reading the jokes Washing his socks, writing his folks Taking a pill, sleeping the night through What does he do? What does he do? He goes-a rumble, rumble, rumble Look at the whole building crumble Tinkle, tinkle, tinkle, look at the wallpaper wrinkle Rumble, rumble, rumble, tinkle, tinkle, tinkle He could give insomnia to Rip Van Winkle With that rumble, rumble, rumble I've got a good right to grumble Tinkle, tinkle, tinkle I'm gonna raise quite a stomping When you rumble, tinkle Please somebody break his lease I tried to hammer, hammer, hammer on the steam pipe I tried to holler, holler, holler down the hall I've got a feeling, he'll come through the ceiling Big foot, piano and all He goes-a fumbling, fumbling, fumbling with his left hand He goes-a grope, grope, groping with his right Fumble and grope, fumble and grope The fumbly fool fumbles 'till he gets it right Then he plays piano all night
Over the top hammy as she always is especially in Annie Get Your Gun! I just don't see how she ever made movies and I realize that I am in the minority about Betty. I did think she was passable in "Greatest Show on Earth"
I AGREE WITH THE MANY COMMENTS ABOUT HOW PHENOMENAL SHE WAS! I CAN ATTEST TO THE FACT THAT THIS SONG IS NOT THE EASIEST SONG TO SING. MUSICALLY, IT IS VERY COMPLEX THERE ARE A LOT OF PITCHES THAT ARE NOT EASY AND SHE SAILED THROUGH THEM. PHYSICALLY, IT IS INTENSE. IT GIVES YOU THAT BOOGIE WOOGIE STYLE BUT ALSO BROADWAY, SHOW STOPPER PANANCHE. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING YOU CAN JUST TOSS OFF EITHER YOU GOT IT OR YOU DON'T. AND BOYS, SHE HAD IT!(TO QUOTE GYPSY) I SING THIS SONG AND HAVE SUNG IT FOR AT LEAST 20 YEARS FOR MY AUDITIONS AND FOR DIFFERENT EVENTS. TO BE ABLE TO PERFORM IT ALSO IS YET ANOTHER FEAT. TO BRING THAT TYPE OF ENERGY AND TO ENTERTAIN AS WELL AS TO SING THOSE PITCHES RIGHT ON KEY, ONE MUST ALSO BE A MUSICIAN TO BE ABLE TO DO THIS. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, BETTY HUTTON! #BETTYHUTTON😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

She's got the cutest personality

Which winds up being VERY Sexy!
I love Betty Hutton
I met her briefly when she came to the UK - Charmin
They don't make them they used to! She is magnificent!
I could not stop smiling. She's an amazing entertainer.
Love Betty
She makes me smile ❤
She had that young Lucy energy! And more! A true entertainer.
I fell in love with Betty because of this movie! Such charisma and her smile lit up my 11yr old heart. I wish they still made movies like this!!
Why am I falling in love with Betty Hutton? What is happening? I accidentally landed on this page... TH-cam Serendipity.
All she had every time. What a performer!
I did not blink for six minutes.
That's called lagophthalmos
She has such a chaotic energy!😂💕
A greatly underrated talent!
WOW. Killed it, as usual. 🎉

I saw this movie with my grandparents and I loved this movie. This song is lovely.
Betty Hutton has been such a great inspiration for me, such a phenomenal actress!
I love betty and I'm a century late
I gotta move, I gotta move
That's what I tell my landlord, "Landlord, I gotta move"
'Cause there's a man, lives right upstairs from me
Making a nightmare of some melody
This is a situation not likely to improve
He goes-a rumble, rumble, rumble on the left hand
He goes-a tinkle, tinkle, tinkle on the right
Rumble, rumble, rumble, tinkle, tinkle, tinkle
Plays piano all night
He goes-a rumble, rumble, rumble on the bottom
He goes-a tinkle, tinkle, tinkle on the top
Rumble, rumble, rumble, tinkle, tinkle, tinkle
Positively won't stop
I tried-a knock-a, knock-a, knocking on the ceiling
I tried-a knock-a, knock-a, knocking on the wall
He takes a breather, no, he doesn't either
Just when I figure that's all
He goes-a rumble, rumble, rumble on the black keys
He goes-a tinkle, tinkle, tinkle on the white
Rumble, rumble, rumble, tinkle, tinkle, tinkle
Plays piano all right but he plays piano all night
Instead of cooking himself a quiet kettle of tea up there
Or maybe getting himself a girl and taking her out somewhere
Instead of sitting around, reading the jokes
Washing his socks, writing his folks
Taking a pill, sleeping the night through
What does he do? What does he do?
He goes-a rumble, rumble, rumble
Look at the whole building crumble
Tinkle, tinkle, tinkle, look at the wallpaper wrinkle
Rumble, rumble, rumble, tinkle, tinkle, tinkle
He could give insomnia to Rip Van Winkle
With that rumble, rumble, rumble
I've got a good right to grumble
Tinkle, tinkle, tinkle
I'm gonna raise quite a stomping
When you rumble, tinkle
Please somebody break his lease
I tried to hammer, hammer, hammer on the steam pipe
I tried to holler, holler, holler down the hall
I've got a feeling, he'll come through the ceiling
Big foot, piano and all
He goes-a fumbling, fumbling, fumbling with his left hand
He goes-a grope, grope, groping with his right
Fumble and grope, fumble and grope
The fumbly fool fumbles 'till he gets it right
Then he plays piano all night
I wish that alot more the 1% of today performars had at least 10% of her personality...
“SHHADDAPP!” lol
I had all her albums, and loved her in the movies. I also like the song Doctor, Lawyer and Indian Chief.
This is a fun song and sung with much energy and is too good to be appreciated today
Paula Ivens Ditto!
firecracker! what a performance!
A great talent and a fab boogie/swing song.
Kiss the spirit of Betty all over; my kind of girl!
jeff Craven Mine too!!
Guys go watch her do "Murder He Says...." AmAzingly Good!
She dances on her buns pretty good! "A vitamin pill with legs." -Bob Hope.
thanks for posting this one
Martin Olson david
Old movies are awesome I like it cause of the songs lol
He plays piano all right...but he plays piano all night!
stee-rike one!!! go betty!
Imagine being talented enough to partner Astaire that beautifully.
This lady was the Bjork of her peers
Did people used to bring tomatoes to performances in case they were bad?
What movie is this
The Perils of Pauline
Poor piano guy XDDD
Someone like Betty, you move your head out of the way & let her do her thing; what a wild hot babe in her day.

AND FULLY CLOTHED/ covered up!! Who needs naked Kardashian type celebr. for popularity
Crap I doubt BH even needed a microphone
What made her choose a manic singing style?
Over the top hammy as she always is especially in Annie Get Your Gun! I just don't see how she ever made movies and I realize that I am in the minority about Betty. I did think she was passable in "Greatest Show on Earth"
You're wrong! She's Great! A WONDERFUL & RARE TALENT!
It's a shame that you dont appreciate it!
Betty Hutton being a professional nuisance while her hat holds on for dear life is a level of energy I can only aspire to.
....
i know everything she does is written but then ,,,
She was beyond dreadful. In everything. Watching her today you'd be forgiven for thinking that she was unwell. Pure ham.
Horrible people those septics
