Closed Captions LOL

During the scene where Burl Ives is singing (sort of) the Blue Danube waltz, if you put the DVD on captions, it will display what he's actually singing, which is:
"Yo-do-do-de-o, Poop-Poop! Poop-Poop! Yo-do-do-de-o, Poop-poop! Poop-Poop!"
Why couldn't the captions have just read, "Scat-singing "Blue Danube Waltz" ? or just "Blue Danube Waltz"?

I had a mental image of Johann Strauss at his piano, working on that world-famous composition....Suddenly...he jumps up..."I've got it! I've got it! Yo-do-do-de-o! Poop-poop-poop-poop!" 

It's always so enlightening when you twelve year olds decide to blog your thoughts . . .

What twelve-year-old? I'm way older than that; I just have a weird sense of humor.

LOL....I appreciate it! I just might be the oldest person on this board! That other poster is an ole stick in the mud.

I had the chance to work with Michael Jackson who was as brilliant as they come.

Yeah...and I was kind of wondering, How many twelve-year-old bloggers of late would really know about Johann Strauss?
