Snoopy Vs the Red Baron Lyrics Christmas Snoopy vs the red baron lyrics christmas Continue Snoopy's ChristmasSingle by The Royal Guardsmen from Snoopy and His FriendsA-sideSnoopy's ChristmasB ties Kinda Looks Like ChristmasPublowed1967GenreRocknoveltyChristmasLength3:10 (single version)6:16 (album version)LabelLaurie (LR 3416)Songwriter (s)George David WeissHugo & Luigi Royal Guards Singles Chronology Wednesday (1967) Snoopy's Christmas (1967) I Say Love (1968) Snoopy's Christmas is a song by The Royal Guardsmen, released on Snoopy and His Friends (1967). An overview of their previous Snoopy vs. The Red Baron song is about how Snoopy was supposed to go and fight the Red Baron on Christmas Eve. The baron has Snoopy at his mercy after a long dog fight, but instead of shooting him down, he forces Snoopy to land and offers Snoopy a holiday speech. Later, Snoopy and the Red Baron fly in different directions, each knowing they'd meet some other day. [1] Publication begins with an unknown chorus [quote required] by singing O Tannenbaum (O Christmas tree). The middle part of the song is bridged with bells that play the phrase Hark the Herald Angels Sing. The album version of the song features a simulated radio news report on failed efforts in Christmas peace, leading to Snoopy being sent hunting down his sworn enemy. The song refers to the 1914 Christmas Truce of 1914, which was initiated not by German and British commanders, but by the soldiers themselves. [2] The length of the fire was varied by locality and was reported to be as short as Christmas Day or as long as the week between Christmas and New Year's Day. Fighters tied to trenches exchanged small gifts over rows, with Germans giving beer to Britons who sent cigarettes and meat packs in return. No man's land was cleared of corpses, trenches were repaired and emptied, and troops from both sides shared photos of their families and used No Man's Land in places for friendly football games. [3] The song even has the right initiator, as german soldiers usually invited the British and began a truce, and in the song the Red Baron – a German hero of The Second World War – extends the hand of Christmas friendship to Snoopy. Reception Snoopy's Christmas reached Number 1 on the New Zealand and Australian[4] singles charts in 1967, and remains a popular Christmas song in these countries. Originally released, the song was the best-selling single in the world and is estimated to be the best-selling foreign single sold in New Zealand in the 20th century. [5] Song reenters new zealand singles chart, charting in December 1987, 1988, 1989 and 2013. [6] New Zealand Herald readers also voted Snoopy's Christmas the worst Christmas song ever.

The song was recorded at Charles Fuller Productions' studio in Tampa, Florida, and released as a single by Laurie Records. The bow #122 in a bubbly hot 100 on The 10th. On December 17, 1966, #30 rose again to the #7 on December 24, 1966 [2] and reached its peak in #2 hot 100 clouding on December 31, 1966 (behind monkees' I'm a Believer). made no. 6 in the Record Retailer (UK) chart in February 1967; [3] and was number one in Australia for five weeks since February 1967. In the Hot 100, Believer #1 prevented Snoopy #2 from attending the Hot 100 summit from December 31, 1966 to January 21, 1967, after which Snoopy fell while Believer remained on top for another three weeks. The Royal Guards recorded several other Snoopy-themed songs, including two follow-ups Snoopy vs. the Red Baron – The Return of the Red Baron and Snoopy's Christmas – along with other songs such as Snoopy for President. [4] In 2006, they released Snoopy vs Osama. [5] Background Snoopy vs. the Red Baron was inspired by Charles Schulz's cartoon Peanuts, which featured a recurring story about Snoopy imagining himself as a World War II airman fighting with the Red Baron. The song was released about a year after the first comic featuring Snoopy fighting the Red Baron came out on Sunday, October 10, 1965. Schulz and United Features Syndicate sued royal guards over use of Snoopy name permission or advertising license. (The Guards, on the other hand, hedged their bets by recording an alternative version of the song called Squeaky vs. the Black Knight; some copies of this version were released by Laurie Records in Canada. [6]) The UFS won the action, and the penalty was that all the publishing revenue from the song would go to them. Schulz allowed the group to write more Snoopy songs. The song begins with a background commentary in faux German: Achtung! Jetzt wir sings zusammen die Geschichte über den Schweinköpfigen Hund und den lieben Red Baron, which is a deliberate translation of English: Attention! Now, together, we tell the story of that pig-haired dog [Snoopy] and the beloved Red Baron[7], and it features the voice of a German sergeant who adds up (eins, zwei, drei, vier, after the first verse) and the American sergeant's descending four (after the second verse); fighter aircraft; machine guns; and the level at the tail end (at the end of the last verse). From 1:46 p.m. to 1:54 p.m., the song borrows a variation of instrumental-toded McCoys' version of Hang On Sloopy. Snoopy's original recording at this point sung the words Hang on Snoopy, Snoopy hang on. This tactic led to initial speculation that the guards were McCoys under a different name. Before publication, these lyrics were removed to prevent copyright issues. The chorus of the song refers to the bloody Red Baron. Since blood is considered mild expletive in Australia and some other English-speaking countries, the word was censored (by being bleeped out) for radio broadcasting in Australia in the 1960s. Other releases and cover versions of charles fuller productions' ad branch rare ad record (only 1,000 printed, labeled Omnimedia) included deleted lyrics Hang on Snoopy. It's a two-sided 7 that plays at 33-1/3 RPM. The song was featured as a cover version on the cover of the Peter Pan Pop Band & Singers' children's album of the same name in the early 1970s. [8] In 1976, the band The Irish Rovers covered this song with their studio album The Children of the Unicorn K-Tel International. It was the 12th day of the Irish folk music group. In 1973, a group called The Hotshots! reached number 4 on the UK Singles Chart with a cover version of the song that was performed ska-style. In 1967, Italian singer Giorgio Gaber recorded an Italian version of this song Snoopy contro il Barone Rosso. He also recorded the Spanish version of Snoopy contra el Barón Rojo, whose lyrics were very similar to those in his Italian version. Also in 1967, the Spanish band Los Mustang recorded a different version in Spanish, also called Snoopy contra el Barón Rojo, with a different lyric than Gaber's version. Also in 1967, Brazilian singer Ronnie Von recorded a version of Soneca Contra o Barão Vermelho, then known in Brazil as either Xereta (snoopy in Portuguese) or Soneca (snooze) in the local editions of the Schulz comic. In 1977, the contra band recorded a version called Ressu and Red Barooni in Finnish. It was released as a B-side with their debut single Drive Quiet Daddy (Love Records LRS 2185). [10] In 2003, a band called The Staggers released a hard rock cover of the song. The song inspired Kim Newman's novel The Bloody Red Baron (1995). The book features both the Red Baron and Snoopy, although the latter is deliberately unnamed to avoid copyright issues. The song is briefly featured in Quentin Tarantino's 2019 film Once Upon a Time... Hollywood. References ^ Hot 100 Chart. Billboard. ^ Hot 100 chart. Billboard. ^ Roberts, David (2006).

    WHO'S WHO AT ARISTA-CAREERS/INTERWORLD INTERVIEW WITH BILLY MESHEL Q: Alright Billy, tell me about the development of the publishing operation. :A: Well, in January 1977 the publishing company was set up. Q: The record company was established when? A: I think the record company was 3 years old...We started with no songs in the catalogue. Our first deal was with Gregg Diamond and "More, More, More" was the first song that we had that made money...it went to number one. That went on to become a real good relationship and gave us some good songs to exploit. Q: You started by looking for writers rather than acquiring catalogues? A: We never look for catalogues...the thing you do is find talented people...catalogues are inflated. Q: Do you feel that even back in '77 you were better off going after good writers than established catalogues? A: Well, good writer-artists. We couldn't sign straight writers because we didn't have the staff yet. Even now, almost 5 years later, we still don't have enough of a staff to take care of straight writers. We get involved mainly with writer-artists who we believe to be talented. Q: What else is important besides signing good writer-artists? A: The next thing when you are starting up a company is individual songs. So you listen to everything that comes in. Before we had anyone working for us I listened to all of the tapes myself. I found "Hard Times For Lovers", the song that Judy Collins ultimately did, plus a bunch of other individual songs that way.

    Dan Hutt 6/17/08 Uses of WWI Imagery in the Late 60's Pop Music of the Zombies and the Royal Guardsmen Although very different bands, the British group the Zombies and the American group the Royal Guardsmen each played a part in the 1960's pop music phenomenon known as the British Invasion: the former as a key player in the cultural movement alongside bands such as the Beatles, the Kinks, and the Who, et al, and the latter as one of hundreds (if not thousands) of American groups who sought to emulate the new British beat sounds and styles. Each of the two groups embraced the jangly guitar sound and big vocal harmonies of the genre, but beyond those commonalities, shared little else. The Zombies enjoyed continued success throughout the 1960's and beyond, and were seen as not only producers of hit singles, but as a more substantive albums-oriented group. They remain widely respected to this day and have been hugely influential of countless other pop artists. The Royal Guardsmen, on the other hand, are generally regarded as having been a teenage kitsch or novelty act, riding the brief wave of popularity they enjoyed from the success of their "Snoopy"-related singles. The concern of this essay is the two groups' use of WWI imagery in some of their late 60's songs: the Royal Guardsmen's "Snoopy" songs (the primary four of which I will analyze here, dating from 1967-68) and the Zombies' song "Butcher's Tale (Western Front 1914)," from the acclaimed 1968 album, Odessey and Oracle.

    “Enigma, wunderkind, control freak, visionary, raconteur, artist advocate, shameless hustler and, in the end, kind heart, Gernhard spent four-and- a-half decades chasing recording art and “blatant novelty with the same dogged determination. Gernhard’s achievements in the music business rival those of Rick Hall, Mike Curb, Phil Walden, and perhaps even Sam Phillips.” —Rodney Crowell, singer-songwriter “DeYoung hooks Phil Gernhard’s genius, discipline, and love of music right up to the side of his self-in- dulgent, carny, smarmy business practices. I had no idea what a huge swath of great work he’d cut, starting right in his own backyard.” —Stan Lynch, songwriter and producer “A great rock ’n’ roll story that’s been hiding in plain sight. It’s the last half century of American music wrapped up in the story of one man.” —William McKeen, author of Everybody Had an Ocean: Music and Mayhem in 1960s Los Angeles “Captures one of the most unheard of, intriguing stories to come from the colorful world of Ameri- can pop music—the life of Phil Gernhard, a driven HAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ARE PEOPLE HAT hit-maker who never let anyone get in his way.” —Steve Huntington, DJ, Radio Margaritaville W PHIL GERNHARD, RECORD MAN Bill DeYoung 978-0-8130-5677-7 • Hardcover $24.95 • 176 pages, 6 x 9, 25 b/w illus.
