The Silly Song (1937 song)

The Silly Song is a song from Walt Disney's animated film "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" sung by Otis Harlan and Scotty Mattraw and the Dwarf Chorus. This features an instrument septet. The dwarfs yodel in this song.:Sleepy: little horn shaped like a fish:Grumpy: finely carved organ:Dopey: drum kit:Sneezy: lute:Bashful: concertina:Doc (and also Happy): guitar-like instrument called a swanette:Happy: yodeler

Synopsis of the Number:After discovering Snow White in their house and having dinner, the dwarfs throw a party for Snow White. In the song, Happy and Bashful each sing about something silly, both of which are followed by a chorus. After which, the dwarfs all take turns dancing with Snow White. A little more than halfway through the song, Dopey climbs onto Sneezy's shoulders while wearing a long cloak so that he could seem like a tall enough dance partner for Snow White. They dance with her for a little while, and then she lets them dance on their own. Dopey's dance is abruptly ended when Sneezy lets out a really big sneeze causing him to fly up into the rafters.This song includes a drum solo by Dopey, an organ solo by Grumpy, and a guitar solo by Doc. This segment is immediately followed by the "Someday My Prince Will Come" segment.

Nearly 40 years later, it was used as background music in the earliest playings of The Price is Right's popular pricing game, Cliff Hangers.
