Singin' In The Rain

Gene Kelly is magical and tapping when singing in the rain. If I were to sing in the rain, I wonder what would I do? I would warble a song that transcends language and tenor.

I will break out into a song that will scare the chittering mocking birds. So here a compilation of songs that make you feel that way.

(1) In an international language
(a) That you don't understand
(b) No Indian regional language

(2) In a tune that is playful
(3) In a movie or album or sound track

 

I never miss an Asterix movie on tv.
Recently I watched "Asterix and the Mansion of the Gods" and was enchanted by this song.

I don't understand a word. I don't understand the language.
Yet it makes me want to bob to the playful music.

Here's bora bora for you.

 

I like to go back to Miyazaki films as often as I can.
I recently watched Howls Flying Castle, Totoro, Ponyo again.

Maurice Sendak and Miyazaki are two artists I love for their wacky and cheerful characters

Here's the theme song of Totoro in Japanese.



And also in English.

 

People from a certain generation and times will recall this smoothery song.
Not only the original Romanian song but the cascading parodies are forever enshrined in youtube.

Here's the original Romanian version. I don't know what is it about listening to songs that make no sense which appeal to me, perhaps, the limitless interpretations of the undulating vocables. I play this song for the familiar gusto and not the alien gurgle.
