![]() Mary Poppins probably suffers the most as a much older transfer is used which is not only poor in quality, but also fullscreen. Robin Hood's "Oo-De-Lally" is repeated in its entirety in order to make the short tune seem longer while the 9-minute Silly Symphony "Three Little Pigs" is cut down to a mere minute and a half.Īlthough the back of the case claims a 31 minute running time, Sing Along Songs: Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious - I Love to Laugh, supplies just over 27 minutes of entertainment, and it is not particularly entertaining.īad video quality well outnumbers the laughs in this DVD presentation. ![]() Edited versions of the songs and film clips seem to be followed more closely as a theme than that of laughter. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' "The Washing Song" ("Bluddle-Uddle-Um-Dum") is the least singable of the selections here, as there is more action than song, while "Jolly Holiday" fails for the most part by leaving out the on-screen words to some of the more indiscernible lyrics. Also set to film clips, albeit only of one character in this instance, is "Quack Quack Quack Donald Duck", a silly song which is rather forgettable. The typical cheery Disney singers provide vocals for the catchy melody for the most part, but the song wraps up with some genuine crooning of the Uncle Remus variety. "Everybody Has a Laughing Place" from one of Disney fans' most-talked-about but least-seen films ( Song of the South) follows with a promising clip of Brer Rabbit but turns into footage from one animated work to another, all featuring a character or characters enjoying some laughing time. As might be expected, a Mary Poppins song heads the list being "I Love to Laugh." Here, one of the most distressing and often occurring event takes place for the first time - not all of the lyrics appear on the screen. Starting out with the usual opening (recycled and dubbed footage of Professor Owl and class), Ludwig von Drake then takes the helm and introduces each song on an individual basis. As is common with a number of these presentations, Sing Along Songs: Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious - I Love to Laugh most prominently features tunes from a single Disney film, in this case Mary Poppins, and includes other songs from the same studio which follow a basic theme - here, laughter and the people who love to engage in it. They really quack me up.Disney's Sing Along Songs were a popular home video venue in the 1990s and now many have found a second incarnation being recycled for their debut on the DVD format. This next song just drives me quackers, it's about that wacky nephew of mine Donald Duck, And his girl Daisy. ![]() ![]() As a matter of fact, sometimes you'll only have to have something as simple as a quack. But then, a silly song doesn't have to have to long, fancy, or complicated words to make it fun to sing.
