🎼Oh Brunhilde, you’re so wuvwy🎶
I’d rather have the jazzy ragtime of Mister Rogers. That shit was unironically so good (and complex). And performed LIVE, to boot!
I learned ragtime from a cartoon frog.
🎵Hello my honey, hello my baby, hello my ragtime gaaaaaaaal!🎵
Kiki the Rabbit! Kill the rabbit! Kill the rabbit!
With my sword and magic helmet!
“What have I done? I killed the wabbit! Poor little bunny. Poor little wabbit.”
Spear and magic helmet.
I stand corrected. It was from memory though
No love for the pretty horsey?
Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy in Fantasia is a core memory. And now I get a little bit of Carmen at the end of F1 races! It’s come full circle.
I have a lifelong love of Frédéric Chopin because of Woody Woodpecker.
My 7yo started asking to try golf; after a few months of this we decided that he actually is interested and got him a spot in the golf minis classes after school. Once he had been a few times, we asked him why he suddenly became interested, neither his mum or I play.
He said that he wanted to play because Woody Woodpecker was playing and it looked fun…I show the boys old cartoons a fair bit.
Link? I watched a lot of Woody and don’t remember any Chopin.
From Bugs, I got Rossini and Wagner.
Edit: Found this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIB65BfO-u8 I can see why I wouldn’t remember it
Yeah that’s the one. I watched it repeatedly as a kid
its how transfemmes stayed problematic before paradox released HOI and CK
Am I having a stroke?
Video games. Hearts of Iron (HOI) and Crusader Kings (CK).
?
every trans woman has a favorite paradox game. often hoi ir ck. Nazis also really like paradox games. especially modded hoi. its sort of a coincidence. I could explain why it happens but its boring.
Nazis really like wagner, his stuff was like core to the esoteric fascist religion, the guys that you think of when you think of Indiana Jones or bellboy punching Nazis. bugs bunny is a massive probably at least somewhat transfemme queer.
Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies were originally started by Warner Bros. to showcase their music publishing interests, promote popular songs of the day which they owned and featured in their musical films, and to serve as advertisements for their recordings and sheet music. Today, the descendant Warner Music Group is one of the big four music publishing conglomerates. Fun fact.
Edit: Here’s the short film, courtesy of the Internet Archive.
I want more old documentaries/archived films in my Lemmy comments. Thanks! TIL.
That fact was exceedingly fun
Dropped the link? :)
There is nothing stopping you from teaching them that way…
I had a friend who took a university course that was centered on the classical music of Looney tunes.
At what school was this?
Acme University, of course.
KPOW!
I don’t remember. It was many years ago. Sorry.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It’s also been many years since I attended university, but I do remember there being some rather goofy classes I could have registered for as electives. sadly, I can’t really remember any of their names, either.
Be the change you want to see in the world

Sono il factotum della città!
Della città!
Della città!
True and real.
I’m learning about classical music because its the most fun to play on an instrument.
We are very different people. I find it the most boring to play on the instruments I know. Give me jazz any day
The only acceptable way
not only. just best.
I dunno about that, I learnt about it from Fantasia
Technically that mouse was in a dress; but Walt’d never have admitted it
