Get OUT Vida, get out before I kill you!

Get OUT Vida, get out before I kill you!

Ai, ai, ai, ai
Have you ever danced in the tropics?
With that hazy lazy
Like, kind of crazy
Like South American Way

Ai, ai, ai, ai
Have you ever kissed in the moon light
In the grand and Glorious
Gay Notorious
South American Way

She's "The Lady in the Tutti Fruiti Hat".

Is it just me, or is the picture not working?

The picture works for me and so did Carmen!

re: Ai, ai, ai, ai

It's from a Broadway show, actually, back in 1939.

"South American Way," performed by Ms. Miranda is from a revue called "Streets of Paris."

The revue also featured Abbott & Costello and Gower Champion.

I have it on the "Front Row Center" Broadway gold box set.

It was in Radio Days...

Didn't they all dance around to Carmen's song in the film (when it was played on the radio)?

Are you talking about Mickey Rooney in THE GANG'S ALL HERE?

re: Ai, ai, ai, ai

Mickey sang "Mama Yo Quiero" in Babes on Broadway in full Carmen drag...

...did he do a Carmen spoof in other movies too?

You're right that is what I am thinking of. She sang 'The Lady In The Tutti Frutti' Hat in THE GANGS ALL HERE.

re: Ai, ai, ai, ai

I think I remember little Darla in "Our Gang" doing a spoof too... but I doubt that's what you're getting at.

IS... a puzzlement!

DING, DING DING....WE HAVE A WINNER!

next clue was going to be...

"You think just because you made a little money you can get a new hairdo and some expensive clothes and turn yourself into a lady. But you can't. Because you'll never be anything but a common frump whose father lived over a grocery store and whose mother took in washing."


yes Mildred Pierce, Kay sings it when she is dressing up, with Veda playing the piano
