"Speedy Gonzales"
SPOKEN: It was a moonlit night in old Mexico. I walked alone between some old adobe haciendas. Suddenly, I heard the plaintive cry of a young Mexican girl.

.

.

You better come home,

Speedy Gonzales

Away from tannery row

Stop alla your a-drinkin'

With that floozie named Flo

Come on home to your adobe

And slap some mud on the wall

The roof is leakin' like a strainer

There's loadsa roaches in the hall

Speedy Gonzales, why dontcha come home?

Speedy Gonzales, how come ya leave me all alone?

SPOKEN in a male Mexican accent: "Hey, Rosita-I hafta go shopping downtown for my mudder-she needs some tortillas and chili peppers."

Your doggy's gonna have a puppy

And we're runnin' outta coke

No enchiladas in the icebox

And the television's broke

I saw some lipstick on your sweatshirt

I smelled some perfume in your ear

Well if you're gonna keep on messin'

Don't bring your business back a-here

Mmm, Speedy Gonzales, why dontcha come home?

Speedy Gonzales, how come ya leave me all alone?

SPOKEN in a male Mexican accent: "Hey, Rosita-come queek-down at the cantina they giving green stamps with tequila!!"

THE MONTHLY VIDEO: OLD LONDON STREETS (El video del mes: Calles del Viejo Londres)

THE SOUND OF MUSIC The Lonely Goatherd (SONRISAS Y LÁGRIMAS: El Cabrero Solitario)

The "Sound of Music" (en español "Sonrisas y Lágrimas" y también "La novicia rebelde") es una película rodada en 1965 sobre un musical espléndido que se estrenó en Broadway y cuyo argumento está basada en la historia real de María von Trapp y su familia de músicos que por motivos de la 1ª guerra mundial tuvo que emigrar de Austria a Estados Unidos donde tuvieron mucho éxito con su grupo llamado primero Trapp Family Choir y después The Trapp Family Singers.

La historia cuenta como en 1938, en los meses previos a la anexión de Austria por parte de Alemania (el Anschluss), en un convento de la ciudad de Salzburgo, María (Julie Andrews), una joven novicia con una clara falta de disciplina, es enviada por la Madre Abadesa (Peggy Wood) a casa del Capitán Georg Ritter von Trapp (Christopher Plummer) para que ejerza de institutriz de sus siete hijos. El Capitán Von Trapp es un viudo que mantiene a raya a su prole con un estilo autoritario y dominante, prácticamente igual que en sus tiempos en la Armada Imperial Austrohúngara. María pronto se hace con el cariño de los niños, enseñándolos a jugar y a cantar...

El éxito de la película, ganadora de 5 oscars, la ha mantenido vigente durante más de 40 años y tanto es así que una de las atracciones turísticas de Salzburgo es un tour de cuatro horas por los lugares en que se rodó y que en un céntrico teatro de Londres con lleno total de público se sigue representando el musical que cuenta con una puesta en escena magistral y mágica, de lo que puedo dar fe porque tuve la suerte de disfrutar de la representación hace dos veranos.

CHRISTMAS CAROLS

Jingle Bells

Dashing through the snow
On a one-horse open sleigh,
Over the fields we go,
Laughing all the way;
Bells on bob-tail ring,
making spirits bright,
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh

A day or two ago,
I thought I'd take a ride,
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side;
The horse was lean and lank;
Misfortune seemed his lot;
He got into a drifted bank,
And we, we got up sot.

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells,
Jingle all the way!
What fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

A day or two ago,
the story I must tell
I went out on the snow
And on my back I fell;
A gent was riding by
In a one-horse open sleigh,
He laughed as there
I sprawling lie,
But quickly drove away.

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells,
Jingle all the way!
What fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

Now the ground is white
Go it while you're young,
Take the girls tonight
And sing this sleighing song;
Just get a bob-tailed bay
two-forty as his speed
Hitch him to an open sleigh
And crack! you'll take the lead.

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells,
Jingle all the way!
What fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

Learn Jingle Bells by heart with this video from Donald Duck:

SILENT NIGHT


Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Hallelujah
Christ, the Savior is born
Christ, the Savior is born

Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace


Learn Silent night by heart with this video.



And sing it by heart with this. It's an instrumental version.
