I just saw these gals in a Three Stooges short a few days ago and I couldn't figure out where I had seen them before. Then I log onto the Fedora Lounge and there is the answer to my question. What a funny coincidence!

I just watched again. Isn't that "Manhattan Serenade" they're using as background music??? Even more son sequitoritude.

Especially if any of them were written in the "Dirty 30s"

Totally. Like Julia Lee's "The Spinach Song (I Didn't Like It The First Time)" (1949), which you can listen to at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=024gVOIad6M.
However, any double entendre behind "Solid Potato Salad" is still lost on me.

I think it's just a nonsense phrase that fits the rhythm of the song, not unlike "Cement Mixer Putty Putty" or "Shoot The Sherbert To Me Herbert." Certainly nobody could find double entendres there!

I don't know about not finding double entendres, but the title alone, "Shoot the Sherbet to Me Herbert" is just too funny. So I had to find it on iTunes (Tommy Dorsey) and listen - it's great.

That clip looks like a deleted scene form "The Exorcist"!

I like how the apple just "jumped" up into the one girl's mouth.
The entire time I was watching that I was thinking "Where are their rib cages?!" No one should be able to move that way with our bone structure the way it is!
Now that little diddy is going to be stuck in my head all day! :eusa_doh:

I'm not sure that I can say much more on this family friendly forum.

Oh lordy! I actually saw the film that this clip came from on TCM...I cannot believe I actually sat through it up until that part....worst classic movie ever!!! I remember trying to suffer through it, and then that scene came on, and my b/f walked in the room and was like, "What in the world are you watching???" And usually he makes "smart" comments about all my old films, but honestly...this time I couldn't even defend it...LOL
