Cab Calloway 1933 Cartoon of St. James Infirmary Blues

and thus began the era of ghostemane visualizers

I dont have words from this song to write some poetry on it but i do enjoy it. Also i write poetry in the comments of some videos. Especially music on my nostalgic playist. Good luck finding more of my comments! ( edit ) that actually have inspiring poetry written by me.

Just remarkable. Thanks for this! ❤️

Best rotoscoping I’ve ever seen.

yup. its the Mercury by GHOSTEMANE

well, at least one thing got better over the years - cartoons

What a voice

Makes me happy that things like Cuphead exist to keep this combined style of art and music alive.

Cab was an underrated dancer. Man, those leg movements are out of sight.

Simple black and white has a ring to it.

Phantom Andrei.

This man had some lungs on him. What a damn good singer he was.

Isso é bom d+!!!

Ive seen this animation with different music before. I didnt realize this animation style and the way hes moving is animated in the style of cab calloway, it makes so much sense though

This is so good

Folks, I'm goin' down to St. James Infirmary
See my baby there;
She's stretched out on a long, white table
She's so sweet, so cold, so fair

Let her go, let her go, oh bless her
Wherever she may be
She will search this wide world over
But she'll never find another sweet man like me

Now, when I die, bury me in my straight-leg britches
Put on a box-back coat and a Stetson hat
Put a twenty-dollar gold piece on my watch chain
So you can let all the boys know I died standing pat

An' give me six crap shooting pall bearers
Let a chorus girl sing me a song
Put a red hot jazz band at the top of my head
So we can raise Hallelujah as we go along

Folks, now that you have heard my story
Say, boy, hand me over another shot of that booze;
If anyone should ask you
Tell 'em I've got those St. James Infirmary blues

Is no one gonna talk about the drummer that threw his stick in the beginning

imagine being in a bar, this song playing and in the backround a projector showing this on a wall...!

We're on a mission from God..

I'm suprised no libertards tried to cancel this bc their offended

How classic and beautiful!

Necessity is the mother of invention, these animators had way less tools back in their day and yet their animations still hold up to the test of time, beautiful artistry

Happy halloween 2023

I've never been so happy. Never. But I just can't figure out what it is that I'm happy about, or when this happiness began or will end. Please, God, help me to get to the bottom of this ecstatic happiness! Please!

Wait...what just happened?

Oh hes crip walkin for sure

Wow,that Cab Calloway ghost looks like those strange cryptids that have been caught in pictures lately. Hmm I wonder if he's dancing in the moonlight after his death.

This music is SERIOUSLY psychedelic man. All the little embellishments with his voice. The movement of his body to allow his pure thoughts and energy to pour out into the physical realm, all with such ease. Then combine it with this beautiful psychedelic art that was created by somebody else who understood the skill and pure feeling to produce such an expressive demonstration of the human soul. This just makes my ears, mind, and soul twist in amazement. Such a masterpiece.

this animation is peak

I love the backgrounds

It says a ton, having no knowledge of who was actually singing and seeing this silently, that I knew it was Cab's moves. Sadly missed, total groundbreaker. Rest in peace our brother.

A CLASSIC blues jazz standard.

Whats versión of the song is this?

These cartoons had personality, now we have 800 Disney or Pixar movies per year with the same character designs that in the end all look like they were from the same movie

❤❤🤩🤩🤩😘😘😘👏👏👏😘😘❤️🌹

Every year at this time, this video always makes it back into my algorithm.

Everything about this classic is a joy to watch. Cabs dance moves are absolutely fabulous 👍🥰

I remember, way back, PewDiePie used part of the ghost dude portion as an internission for some horror game thing. I am still trying to find it to this day.

I remember when Cab Galloway was in a Janet Jackson video in the eighties....I have such an affinity for my grandparents music.

ask me if i give a fuck about a clique

Some people would rather find it annoying that the new generation is spreading this old cartoon on TikTok. But I think it's a great way for us to know what people have made before we were even born.

I just love this man's soulful voice!! It's a 90-year old cartoon that directly mimics this incredibly talented man's movements and artistry. There are so many aspects that are seen in modern dance and I think that's really awesome. Idk if he was the first, but damn he was good!

1933 the year my dad was born.

With all our modern technology we still cant make animation so sweet so fair. 😂

I think I want to take up the challenge and do a old school hip hop blend to this bring this 2023 as a DJ since 1990 I think I can do it
