My father played this song for us on Christmas morning every year, cackling the entire time. I also have a speech disorder that causes stuttering, which only made this song 10x funnier. I used to not be able to make it through the song without laughing, but now it brings tears to my eyes remembering how much joy this silly song brought to my family. I will play it every Christmas until the day I die. Rest easy Dad, it’s not the same when you’re not here with me.
I believe the laws of modern progressivism dictates that you, a stutterer, must be offended by a stuttering animated pig. Just kidding, thank you for your sense of humor
I'm so glad it at least brings happy memories with it, even if they're bittersweet. I wish I'd discovered this while my Dad was alive, I feel like he'd have enjoyed it a lot too! Rest in peace all cool dads!
@@pamdemonium3138 Actually it is... I think they recorded this back in the '90s when they broadcast out of Charlotte. John Boy laughing his ass off to the guy live in the studio LOL
@@ziggy153 Recorded in a North Carolina radio station by DJ's John Boy and Billy cira 1985-86 with singer Dennis Brownlee as the Porky impersonator. The DJ's didn't have permission from Warner Brothers, who owned the Looney Tunes name, so the trio came up with a made-up name "Seymour Swine & The Squealers" for the one-off performance.
When I was in retail, our loss prevention manager played this on Christmas Eve as the closing announcement. Even shoppers were crying they were laughing so hard.
This is one of the FEW that never fails to warm my Heart ❤ So many Christmas songs have been done to death, by so called "stars" and most times it's lame
that was the one & only Mel Blanc , came to the Q105 studios once in The Tampa bay area & he sang this blue Christmas since he was the voice of Porky Pig & they recorded it at the studio , can't remember what year it was , but they said everybody was cracking up laughing , this was a few years before Mel Blanc died
BEST cover of Elvis's rendition hands down, no contest! I don't think anybody will argue that. Elvis would be so proud of Porky. He probably was all shook up was myself. This tune is priceless. I always risk of cracking a rib these Christmas festivities. It's alright and well worth it.
As a child, my beloved Mother would play her Elvis Christmas album, and I thought Blue Christmas was awful. It literally made my ears hurt. Later in life, I heard this version, and loved it. It brings me loving memories of my Mother. I love and miss you, Mother.
I have a speech disfluency ("stuttering") and I think this is the funniest damn song! We're not laughing at Porky's speech, we're laughing at his total conviction that he's the second coming of Elvis. When he stops singing, lowers his voice and speaks sweet nothings, not even that woman's helpless screams of laughter can stop him. He plows right on. That's what's funny, like Pepe le Pew's unshakeable confidence that he's God's gift to kitties. Porky and Pepe are more than content with their performances, so we never have to feel sorry for them. Porky surely walks off stage, thinking, "Nailed it!"
Denny Brownlee was the singer... a fantastic character voice over artist, singer and actor. I worked with him for 10 years. This was from his time on the john boy and billy.
RA, just googled and found the Denny Brownlee website with the story of this recording. Damn, so sad to come so close to a huge hit and not be able to ride the wave, as the site noted. It's immortalized as a Christmas classic now, so it will continue to play and make people laugh. Other than that, it sucks that he didn't get the credit he deserved.
Very interesting. Since I was a child I thought it was Mel Blanc, I even thought it was weird that Mel Blanc would sing this song. Thanks for clarifying that, I just checked out the truth behind it.
THANK YOU John Boy & Billy! I remember hearing this live on-air on my way to school. Almost dislocated a rib laughing so hard. Awesome to see that it still brings tears of joy. Thanks for sharing.
the song was recorded at the Q105 studios in Tampa, FL back in the 1980's Mel blanc came by & recorded this & the guy laughing in the background is one of the D J 's & that makes it all the more funnier
To who ever thought of this and made it happen: it doesn't matter how hard of a day I'm having, This will never get old and never fails to cheer me up. Thank you so much. You are a legend, at least in my book.
I wish they played this version on the radio more often! This song makes my whole day better no matter what mood I'm in! I love this song !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My cousin introduced us to this song back in 2003 and everyone seems to love it. Deserves more radio airplay each December and a better song than nearly any cookie cutter Christmas junk played everyday on radio.
I totally agree! Back in the eighties and nineties this song was played on the radio a lot during the Christmas season. Then, the political correctness police invaded the country with their social justice bullshit. The Bob And Tom Show used to be edgy as Hell, and that even got neutered.
My dad recorded this directly from the radio station that played this song. The laughs in the background is what I remember and is completely priceless.
I wondered how this was interpreted by stutteres. I have a bad hearing loss, as did my mom, and we both have found so much humor in the challenges we face.
Thank you for your kindness, My stutter is mild and it’s funny That we now live in a world where everything is so politically correct That no one can laugh at themselves. It’s what makes us human. God bless you and have a very Bl-Bl- Blue Christmas!!! Tom Struska
I remember my dad driving two of my band mates and I to a school band competition around either ‘98 or ‘99. I was listening to music on my discman, and I started hearing the three of them laughing to the point of crying. The radio was playing this.
The first time I heard it, I wondered why someone was laughing in the background. That was in 1991 when I was 13. Now not only do I laugh hysterically, but the first time I heard the laugh at 1:29 since 1991, I was like, "Good lord, how many people are going to ask me if that's me in the background?"
hahaha I think we all did and just like stark trek said I think I laughed so hard because I stutter sometimes. I think what makes it even funnier is the person in the background just DYING from laughter lol
daryl142003 Hearing this again, I understand that better than I did then, especially when the laughter is full blown after the "Oh, baby, I'll m-m-miss you." When I listened to this again after so long, I thought, "Oh lord, that sounds like me." I have tendency to laugh that hard and loud at something I find funny.
First time i heard this i was in my step dad's van heading to my sisters with a load of of Christmas gift on Christmas morning , the announcer announced the song , the paused and said by porky pig and me and my step looked each other like " you got to be kidding me" then we laughed our asses off . Lost him just over a year ago miss ya dad.
Back before youtube., ITunes, MP3 player etc.....if you can believe that. My husband expressed his love of this song. I searched high and low until I found it. Now it is a tradition, every Christmas I call him at work and play him this song...always good for a laugh on a busy day...Love it Porky...Merry Christmas All.........
As someone who stuttered as a child, I always loved this. As grown ups we adapt and know what words to avoid. For me it's anything that begins with ST. Love this song.
I listen to this every Christmas and it always cracks me up. The first year that i heard it, i fell off the couch because i was laughing so hard! My wife thought i had lost my mind.😅
This is one of my favorite Christmas songs. I actually like Porky's version better than Elvis singing it! As a matter of fact, when hear Elvis singing it, I'm singing Porky's version in my head.
First time I heard this with a friend, we laughed so hard we got a good laugh because we were nor tuned in at first and missed a lot, next few times we were bent over and howling with laughter. Still luv it
This is the late, great Man of a Thousand Voices Mel Blanc captured on tape clowning around in the studio many years ago. We don't know who played the guitar or kazoo, but probably not Blanc. The laughter comes from staffers and colleagues in the control room. If you don't laugh out loud at this, you're just a Grinch, period.
My father played this song for us on Christmas morning every year, cackling the entire time. I also have a speech disorder that causes stuttering, which only made this song 10x funnier.

The laughter kills it for me. Bwahaha 😂👏🏼
It sounds like John boy and Billy.

No dude I don't know what part of this is funnier porky stuttering or that person in the background laughing😅😅😅😅😅😅
That woman laughing in the background absolutely pts me in hysterics!
Not a woman. That's John Boy from the John Boy and Billy show. Not only really laughing but doing that so other stations couldn't steal it.

After working in retail for 20 + years, this is literally the only Christmas song I can handle.
When I was in retail, our loss prevention manager played this on Christmas Eve as the closing announcement. Even shoppers were crying they were laughing so hard.
We were just saying the same thing! In fact, that's why I looked up this song!
LoL you should hear I Am Santa Claus by the same artist. It's to the tune of Black Sabbath's I Am Iron Man and it's hilarious!
@@frankfjm88 Just listened to it...and it was HILARIOUS! Thanks for the recommendation, and Merry Christmas!

All the dislikes are from folks who are still having a blue Christmas
This song cracks me up every Christmas. 😂😂
I LOVE IT! I Live in TENNESSEE and have listened to the song for over 40 years and still git tickled every time!!😅
The first time I heard this on the radio I nearly ran my car off the road I was laughing so hard.
same with my family and I!
Same here. I almost didn't make it home for Christmas break that year because of this song! :-P
No lie...... I laughed so hard I wet myself!

There's a good reason why you won't hear this on Christmas radio, and it boils down to two words: Warner Bros.
Sure beats "Last Christmas" by whomever is singing it at the time!

I heard this on a Toronto radio station many years ago. The woman laughing is comedian Carla Collins

STILL my FAVORITE Christmas tune of all time!!! Makes me laugh every year. Just like the very first time I heard it!
If memory serves, the original artist was Denney Browlee, and the song was recorded in some bar in Baltimore, MD around 2000.
The guy laughing in the background is the best!

We look forward every Christmas to hear this on the radio
The lady laughing is the best Christmas present every year
That's John Boy from the John Boy and Billy show
1:25 i freaking lost it at this point, awesome version!
This is absolute perfection. And Porky does such a great job, and is so sincere. He just happens to stutter a bit at times. Perfectly.
By far the best CHRISTmas song!!!!
My hubby’s favorite!! Made his day to hear again🎄🌟
So hilarious and the person in the background always gets me rolling 🤣
Thank you, cause I was just crying a minute ago over Mom, Lost her...I know she's laughing with me on this one....Peace
I'm trying to find peace myself. I lost my dad in November 2018
that tune will never get old
I listen to this every Christmas and it always cracks me up. The first year that i heard it, i fell off the couch because i was laughing so hard! My wife thought i had lost my mind.😅
To this day this song is still hilarious, the lady laughing in the background cracks me up.
Oh my God!! Heard this for the first time tonight. My husband introduced me to it. he loves it. He kills himself with laughter. Sad bastard!!!
Ian Maclean Youre funny, lol, i like that, made me laugh & thats not easy to do.
Brings back wonderful childhood memories and still makes me laugh today!
Im from the south and when I moved to Ohio the first time I heard this I was rolling! I laughed so hard I had to pull over. now I listen every year!
This is one of my favorite Christmas songs. I actually like Porky's version better than Elvis singing it! As a matter of fact, when hear Elvis singing it, I'm singing Porky's version in my head.
Great classic for sure
Best christmas song ever! Makes me lol every time. Christmas is not complete without this one.
The woman laughing, makes me laugh. She sounds pretty well lit. God bless.
The person laughing in the background is the best part!
that's what made the song better
Another funny Christmas song is "Nuttin for Christmas", sung by Stan Freberg. This song came out in the 1950s.
The laughing in the background is gold too
1:29 The Laughing in the Background gets me every time!
First time I heard this with a friend, we laughed so hard we got a good laugh because we were nor tuned in at first and missed a lot, next few times we were bent over and howling with laughter. Still luv it
Thank you, Brandon. I needed something to make me smile.
The woman dying laughing in the background makes this song even funnier! 🤣🤣🤣
That's a guy laughing in the background
This was perfect.
I love this song so much I have to play it at least once every year
The person laughing in the background is just too Funny 🤣
The best part of this whole song is that one lady in the background who just can't help it she loses it Everytime 😂😂😂
so good
Not a lady, but a male DJ named John Boy from a North Carolina radio station with his voice speeded up aa bit.

This was funny! Gotta love Porky!
First heard this on the radio a few days ago.
Couldn't wait to get home and look it up.
