I loved this! Does someone remembers a cartoon about a cage where little different animals played the song "la Grange" (ZZ top)???? I have been looking it up in TH-cam and not finding it... please someone help me find it.
Reddly Crow did you first see this on o canada on cartoon network because thats where i first saw this cartoon over twenty years ago. It stuck with me i don't know why maybe the quirky animation.
4:51 I can distinctly remember my dad laughing so hard he started tearing up when the guy sees the cow strapped to the tracks and starts saying WHATTTT THE FFFFF.
This is terrific. While the subject matter disturbs me as a cat lover, the fast pace and the visual gags are hilarious! Totally reminds me of a Wile E. Coyote/Roadrunner cartoon.
omondieu i had a dog that was bad as this cat. He would jump out windows chew holes in doors ran away on a winter day but came back and tore up a hospital style mattress too. He was a dachshund mix named pepper.
omondieu in addition he liked to chew on my books. Finally gave him to someone else. Loved the dog but couldn't take his behavior anymore. He was a lovable little menace and i hope he's okay in his new home.
This cartoon made my childhood, it was like seeing the light. For me, this still marks the pinnacle of animation excellence and sheer genius comic timing. Get ready for a real treat!
I had a music teacher in 3rd grade(early 90's)who played us this short. She said it was a good example of tuba. I'm glad she did. Love it. Just showed it to my 4 year old daughter and she got a kick out of it. Watched it 3 times.
This was my favorite cartoon when I was little, I always broke into hysterical laughter when the bug would cast them off the train track instead of the big cowXD
One of the best cartoons ever done, along with the best of WB and other masters of comic timing. First saw it on a movie screen in NYC as part of a multinational animation compilation. Later on a dvd canadian comp. Love the gags, the exquisite timing, the visual and audio references to other canadian cartoons (the buzz of the blackfly!)
YES. I used to watch that as well. Sunday nights, I think it was. Pretty late, IIRC, like after midnight? This short was one of my favorites, along with the "Every Dog's Guide..." cartoons, and a few others I can't think of right off hand.
When I was coming of age in the late 80s and early 90s, WDCN PBS TV Channel 8 in Nashville, TN, would use this film as filler between shows when a showwould run short of the full time slot. Sometimes the full film, sometimes a (possibly) edited 3-4 minute version if less time needed to be filled, as I recall. It popped uo between episodes of everything from Bob Ross to Lawrence Welk to Mister Rogers Neighborhood.
+Kathryn Williams par for the course for the 1980's back then pg-13 meant full frontal nudity. and there was no free range parenting b/c that's what everyone did anyway. I feel sorry for kids these days. The lack of stuff like this is why they are such delicate little snowflakes.
+David Gordon I don't think we need that stuff but it should not be censored as we can not ignore the world Such as censorship for words like dumb You only make the words stronger
Why? I loved growing up in the 80s! One day my beat-nik mother who believed in groundation and my vietnam vet conservative father who believed in spanking asked me and my brother, who of course always fought, to choose between one or the other punishment. Groundation with PB n J (we had no toys, books, games or a TV in our room, only a clock radio) or a full dinner with evening Nickelodeon and a good hard spanking. Guess which one we both choose? Also, speaking of sore rears, why is everyone so butthurt?
Even for all the uncensored violence and boobies I saw on HBO in the 80s, what kids have now is unreal. Child molesters disguised as kids on chat rooms, internet porn and the ability for precocious kids (such as I was in the 80s) having access to way more than full hairy bush's and relatively tasteful poses) in my dad's old playboy stash)... Rap was positive, non-chauvinistic and music in general was far less violent and sex-obsessed, most sex references were thinly veiled behind innuendo... there was still war, but it wasn't terrorism, it was James Bond spying on Ruskies... Reagan seemed like a good dream in comparison to modern ultra-conservative hell... Sure I cannot stand the fact that 80s pop is still as much of an overplayed radio staple today as it was back then as far as all Clearchannel owned stations are concerned, but really the 80s were by and large friggin awesome!
oh and Connor Titov, I reported your comment for abuse. Try making arguments with a little less Ad Hominem next time if you want to be taken seriously and as for telling me to never reproduce and leveling epithets at me, don't expect to not get reported when we're basically having an otherwise civil discussion. And also, considering your vile attitude and comment at me- RIGHT BACK AT YA!
Between that, all the ladies tied to the railroad tracks, and his initial reaction to a fucking cat ACTING LIKE A FUCKING CAT, I'm inclined to think that the cartoon is the culmination of one man's life long battle with mental illness.
It also had a great deal of exposure in the US, where Nickelodeon frequently used it to fill extra time between shows. Apparently, it was very popular in the UK as well.
Right there with y'all. And I have searched before. I don't get how I missed it,but I'm glad to know it actually existed. It was on Nickelodeon back when Nickelodeon was a really new station and had a lot of Canadian programming...You Can't Do That on Television, anyone?
Bat hits the window. So many added gestures to this one-of-a-kind cartoon. Brilliant and well thought-out. Anyone critical envies both true art and comedy - combined!
I remember seeing this at one of the first Animation Film Festivals I went to in Los Angeles, circa 1970's. It's stuck with me all these years. Thanks for the vid upload..
Oh my god. This is the most riveting, intriguing video that I have ever seen in my entire life. The symbolic resonance that accompanies the nihilistic darkness of life through the dynamite and common reoccurance of petty worries lights up my heart and soul in a melody of joyous warmth. The cat came back is the shittiest video ever, I hope that the creator reevaluates his life.
I think you could not be more wrong. If you seriously did not like this then you probably didn't understand it. There are complicated undertones to this video that a simpleton like you certainly didn't catch. More along folks, just another fool here.
+Angus Macdonald I think that you should be cautious of the words you use on the Internet. I found your comment to be very hurtful and frankly disrespectful. I was sharing my opinion about this fine work of art in hopes of finding similar-minded people but then you come along. You scare people into not revealing their true selves, blocking them from finding a companion. Isn't that what we all want on this lonely planet? What would your mother or father or guardian say if they saw how you treated strangers? I feel sorry for you and your insecurities. I hope you can find peace with yourself and learn to respect others.
+Urszula Sitarz Wow alright, I would like to point out that you make just as many, if not more dangerous assumptions than I allegedly do. Mother and Father? Seems very heteronormative of you to assume I was raised in a "classical" household. Families come in many shapes and sizes. As to the caution I should put into my words, I would point out the inflammatory language you used in the original comment. "Shitty" can be a sensitive word for a lot of people and I don't use it lightly. I exercise tolerance in all aspects of my life but not for intolerance. A lesson I hope to teach you before our short interaction ends.
I first saw this on HBO as one of their in-between movie shorts not long after it first came out (1988). Took me months to catch it again and record it on VHS! I'd never heard the song before...
Thats too funny remember seeing this many years ago, still makes me chuckle today. Cant get that tune out of my head now oh well I will be singing it at work.
this is one of the first things I saw on youtube back in primary school, and I watched it loads. It's so weird watching it now and remembering what happens right before it does...
I remember having this as a kid among many cartoons on VHS tapes, could not imagine the tune from it being so widespread though, ive heard it at lot of places since then recently
Shannon Kobayashi that's were i first saw this on. I was eleven or twelve when i saw this. It was on after m bedtime but somehow remember getting to watch it one night. This is the only cartoon i remember seeing on that show almost twenty years later and i still remember it.
+Griffie Felidãe horrible song, the chorus for over 50% of the "song" he wouldnt even say "fuckin", theory of a dead man is as bad as nickleback its a sickening attempt of a tribute to a classic
I am not Canadian I am watching this because the Canadian band Theory Of A Deadman wrote a song that uses the chorus: Bitch Came Back. Really good song. That is why I am here.
+Zachary Matthew James I can't believe no one has responded to the drowning cats thing. My old man drowned unwanted kittens and said it was the worst experience of his life. The city is cruel on the surface, the country is cruel for real. Life in the country is different. I shudder to imagine rural India or Afghanistan where shit gets real very swiftly. I'm sorry to politicize this objectively awesome cartoon.
I wonder what you're response is to Wile E Coyote having anvils dropped on his head, Sylvester chasing tweety, or Elmer Fudd hunting Rabbits and Ducks... You are a pathetic square who doesn't recognize cartoons making fun of realistic emotions. It's art you moron.
Love this!!! I remember it from when my son was young and never quite forgot it. How 'bout all those bags at the bottom of the river with cats in them and all of those women tied to the railroad tracks!! Too funny!
Aquilla Lee maybe you overheard this on o canada that was cartoon network in the late 90's. I saw this cartoon for the first time on it. I think i was about eleven or twelve when i saw it for the first time and it stuck with me. Its a weirdly drawn but very funny cartoon. Lets face it what pet owner has had a problem pet or knows someone who has or had one. My problem pet was a little dog named pepper.
I was revisiting Theory of a Deadman songs from like a decade ago, and had totally forgotten about their song "Bitch Came Back", to the same catchy tune. Except that version was about clingy, obnoxious ex-girlfriends 😂. So glad I found this! Haven't seen it since I was a kid!
A couple of years ago, they played this short outside of Parliament Building in Ottawa to celebrate Canada Day. They showed this to honour English Canadian animation, and then "The Hockey Sweater" to commemorate French Canadian animation. Honestly, both serve as great examples of Canadian film shorts in my opinion :)
I remember in the first grade 2005 laughing at the guy the others cared about the kitties at the bottom of the ocean/lake i on the other hand cared only about that cat and how effing cute it was i love cats really i do
Man...revisiting what I watched as a kid (I'm 22 now) makes me realize just what kind of morbid, complicated humor I was brought up to appreciate. I am SO thankful for that. XD Although I'll admit, the beetle thing was just a little too disturbing for me (I love insects and get really upset when I see them cut in half).
Remember this from my childhood. Love it.
Wow
Only 3 likes?
After all these years... I FINALLY FOUND IT! I had this song stuck in my head for 30+ years. THANK YOU!

There are some amazing techniques on display in this short film. I haven't seen it a a long time; nice to see it again.

And he just wouldn’t stay away
This is terrific. While the subject matter disturbs me as a cat lover, the fast pace and the visual gags are hilarious! Totally reminds me of a Wile E. Coyote/Roadrunner cartoon.
They probably were inspired by Chuck Jones's Road runner cartoons.

I have two Shi Tzu dogs who think they're cats and one Manx cat who thinks he's a dog. I can relate.
The original song is really creepy.
So many childhood memories brought back by this.
This cartoon made my childhood, it was like seeing the light. For me, this still marks the pinnacle of animation excellence and sheer genius comic timing. Get ready for a real treat!
My grade five teacher showed this to our class...and we still can't get this song out of our head
This song was my childhood. I never stopped listening to it.
I had a music teacher in 3rd grade(early 90's)who played us this short. She said it was a good example of tuba. I'm glad she did. Love it. Just showed it to my 4 year old daughter and she got a kick out of it. Watched it 3 times.
I always felt sorry for that bug...
😪
Omg same
Me too! Poor little critter...
Dear God...🤦🏼♂️
This song:*exists*
Theory of a Deadman: so let's make a adult version of the song
'90s? I remember watching this in the '80s!

I remember this being shown on BBC2 one Boxing day and then afterwards it was the Rex the runt Christmas special, those were good times.
Unexpectedly charming. A real hidden gem.

To bad it didn't win the Academy Awards but at least it was nominated.
It's good at least it made everyone laugh
Literally my childhood
If you never saw it, you'll wanna see it again, if you have, still you'll wanna see it again. I love the part where the mouse blows the candle!
+stephan kovalev It's a rat. You know, a city mouse as opposed to a country mouse. I read that book but it's hard to remember.
For the first time I noticed all of the sacks at the bottom of the lake. That's kind of disturbing.

@@davidlevy706 I can confirm it was popular in England. Popular enough that I'm 36 and the song is still burned in my memory.

that poor beetle
Oh my god!!!!! That's crazy! I fee, really bad for that beetle and that crazy guy💔💔
Wall it is a kids song 😑😑😑😑😑😑😑
yeah so sad
yeah so why kill the beetle :(
i remember seeing this when i was a kid. for some reason the beetle was the only thing i could remember. took me close to 20 years to find this again.
ooooh this brings me back
Thanks to a Mr. Adam Young I will now have this song stuck in my head forever. Thanks Adam... Really. Thanks.
Takes me back to elementary music class. I can still hear my music teacher Mrs. Granier-Spitz singing it in my head. It’s like an anchor memory🤍
Am I the only one who watched this in elementary school
Meerkatbro I'm still in elementary school
***** 😂
Meerkatbro lol I had music class where they made us sing this everyday. I still remember the lyrics. 😭😭 The good old days 😭
Meerkat I am in Elementary so I guess I did watch this in Elementary school
I did lmao
For some reason, this cartoon scared the hell out of me when I was a kid. I don't know why.
Love the rat blowing out the match.

This was such a big part of my childhood! I remember have a NFBC cartoon collection on VHS and watching all sorts of these great animated shorts.
I saw this as a kid on a videotape of animations from around the world, and this was one of my favorites from it.
I grew up with this, oh man I used to watch this all the time on VHS.
Thank you. Im 39 and remember this as a kid
this is one of the first things I saw on youtube back in primary school, and I watched it loads. It's so weird watching it now and remembering what happens right before it does...
lol i am re-watching my childhood memories by watching this! :)
I'd watch this animation when I was a small child, and years later I find it. Ah nostalgia.
I remember seeing this as a kid and would sing it occasionally but this is great to see it again
These early Canadian animations still make me feel a little uncomfortable 25 years later
Poor man I feel sorry for him
I remember having this as a kid among many cartoons on VHS tapes, could not imagine the tune from it being so widespread though, ive heard it at lot of places since then recently

Bitch Came Back. Really good song. That is why I am here.
One for my sister from another mister . The cat lady!!! lol Wendy .
That cat is amazing, such meme lord.
I watch this once every 10 years to ensure it's stuck in my head for another 10 years.
Lol
I know, right? Nobody else has ever said they remembered seeing or hearing this when I have talked about it.
This is early 80s... I remember watching it between movies on Superchannel!! Lol

I remember this being on "Liquid Television" on MTV in 91'
