I always assumed it was a little girl. Though it doesn't sound much like one, listening to it again now. So we both learned something new. What year was this made? 50's?

You trying to tell me you didn't hear that shriek? That was something trying to get out of its premature grave, and I don't want to be here when it does. - Phantom of the Paradise (1974)
Re: Christmas Songs
One of the best choral groups I've ever heard. Here is Chanticleer singing "Ding Dong, Merrily on High."

Re: Christmas Songs
I just heard this for the first time while watching Christmas With the Bing Crosby's. It's called I Hate People, sung by Scrooge. I couldn't find the clip from the show, but this is from the movie soundtrack. The version in the shoe I watched had slightly censored lyrics.

Lyrics:
Scavengers and sycophants and flatterers
and fools
Pharisees and parasites and hypocrites
and ghouls
Calculating swindlers, prevaricating frauds
Perpetrating evil as they roam the earth
in hordes
Feeding on their fellow men
Reaping rich rewards
Contaminating everything they see
Corrupting honest men like me
Humbug! Poppycock! Balderdash! Bah!
I hate people! I hate people!
People are despicable creatures
Loathesome inexplicable creatures
Good-for-nothing kickable creatures
I hate people! I abhor them!
When I see the indolent classes
Sitting on their indolent asses
Gulping ale from indolent glasses
I hate people! I detest them! I deplore them!
Fools who have no money spend it
Get in debt then try to end it
Beg me on their knees befriend them
Knowing I have cash to lend them
Soft-hearted me! Hard-working me!
Clean-living, thrifty and kind as can be!
Situations like this are of interest to me
I hate people! I loathe people! I despise and abominate people!
Life is full of cretinous wretches
Earning what their sweatiness fetches
Empty minds whose pettiness stretches
Further than I can see
Little wonder I hate people
And I don't care if they hate me!

Re: Christmas Songs
I know, I know. It's March. But I think we all need this in our lives. Baby, It's Cold Outside sung by Sybil Smythe and Bill Jacoby. Very fun, unusual version of this song.

Re: Christmas Songs
I need a libretto for that one.
