I'VE ALWAYS WANTED A HIPPOPOTAMUS FOR CHRISTMAS, TOO
Never heard this one before...or I completely don't remember it. But you'd think this song would be quite memorable to a kid. I love that they show her singing it a few years ago as a pretty senior. I swear she looked better than when she was a kid! LOL! :)
Such an unusual voice for a 10-year-old. She's now 76.
ReplyDeleteAnd probably still waiting for her hippopotamus.
DeleteHa ha, one my faves!
ReplyDeleteThe kids and I used to sing it together.
DeleteThe Philadelphia Zoo had a great video of one of their hippos today with this song. It was fun
ReplyDeleteI'll look for that.

ReplyDeleteI think she looks better, too.
DeleteNo crocodiles or rhinoceroses... I love this song and it was really fun to see her perform it in 2016 at the end. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteSo glad I found you, Mitchell.
DeleteIt is such a silly song but it is a lot of fun to listen to.
ReplyDeleteIt was a great song to sing with my children.
DeleteI always thought it was a boy singing this song! lol
ReplyDeleteShe had a low voice for a little girl.
