Still funny :lol: Yet he was a very strange and awkward man in reality. You should watch 'Get Back' where he visits the Beatles at Apple studios. It's quite painful to watch.

Interesting, I didn't know that. He is brilliant in Dr. Strangelove.

As for diction, phrasing, energy, and humour, no one has ever performed this song better than this fellow. High energy of body voice and mind elevates to a subtle comedy that relies on inference and experience for detection. In other fields of endeavour* energy also elevates achievement, energy in the extreme can be comical.

Subtle humour is for the civilized.

I had a question but it was within my skill set to track down the answer.

Dimitri is the actor's name. Funny guy, an Indian Norm Crosby.

If folks aren't into Zappa, this is a good taste. It’s not too savage.
I only mention that because I have yet to hear of a woman who likes Zappa, but there may be one or two.

- A momentary pause from the horror of Hamas.
- This cartoon is embedded with messages about the ways of devils.
- The devil in the toon is a happiness vampire, disguised as a devil.
- He sucks the happy energy of music and dancing right out of Daffy.

- Yes, there are devils in the world.
- Best to tell the children gently, as in this cartoon, so as not to make them anxious.
- Eventually when they come of age they will realize for themselves that music does soothe the savage beast inside.
- Of course there is other music, likely exposed to children, likely intended to stoke the savage beast inside, by identifying the devils directly, and telling the little children what they should do to the devils.

- The little innocent children used to be exposed to what is in this link at an early age.
- Childrens’ entertainment would likely not approve of this sort of thing today.
- Other forms of childrens’ entertainment today would not have been approved of back when this toon was created.
- (Did I properly place the apostrophe?)

Comment: Comic genius for children.

Back to reality. Did you know that Trump stopped Hamas from rewarding the families of martyrs with aid money from other countries? Well, Biden put a stop to that with his hundred million dollar presidential gift to the terrorists, which of course will be laundered through the usual channels to reach the usual pockets.
