Daffy Duck Question

[Kazuya Mishima]

Did Daffy Duck ever put put words to the Looney Tunes theme tune? If so, where can it be found? (does the episode have a name?)

I know this is a long shot, but the AV Forums membership are not often stumped...

Thanks.

Hi,

Yes he did! Took me all of 30 seconds to find the results on Google. The song was called: "I'm Just Wild About Harry" and comes from the Looney Tunes short "Yankee Doodle Daffy" The lyrics go:

I'm just wild about Harry
And Harry's wild about me
The heavenly caresses of his kisses
Fills me with ecstasy
He's as sweet as chocolate candy
And just like honey from a bee
Oh I'm just wild about Harry
And he's just wild about
Cannot do without
He is from the south
Can't you hear me shout
Talking with my mouth
Could you ever doubt
He's just wild about me


Hope this answers your question!

Watching more than my fair share of Daffy with my daughter (Sky kids) & from my mis-spent youth I've never seen this, but it does ring some sort of a bell. I'm now thinking there was one with Bugs & Daffy on stage in a duet sort of 'showboat style' (straw hats, canes, stripey jacket) where they finished with a line or two to the Looney tunes theme. 'We hpoe you like our show, but now we have to go.......' Thats all I can recall sorry don't know the name of it. Don't know if thats the one you mean, or if its any help!

Stowitbelow,

I think you may be getting confused with "Tiny Toons Adventures" - the spin-off TV show, starring baby-sized, junior versions of the famous LT characters. This show, did have lyrics written to the LT them tune, which went like this:

We're tiny, we're toony,
We're all a little looney,
And in this cartoony,
We're invading your TV!
We're comic dispensers,
We crack up all the censors,
On "Tiny Toon Adventures"
Get a dose of comedy!

So here's Acme Acres,
It's a whole wide world apart,
Our home sweet home,
It stands alone,
A cartoon work of art!
The scripts were rejected,
Expect the unexpected
On tiny toon adventures
It's about to start!

They're furry, they're funny,
They're Babs and Buster Bunny,
Montana Max has money,
Elmyra is a pain!
Here's Hamton and Plucky,
Dizzy Devil's yucky,
Furrball's unlucky,
And Gogo is insane!

At Acme Looniversity, we earn our toon degree,
The teaching staff's been getting laughs since 1933!
We're tiny, we're toony,
We're all a little looney,
It's tiny toon adventures,
Come and join the fun!

And now our song is done!

Thanks Pooch.

I tried Google first, but you must have a more well-honed technique than I, because I couldn't find an answer...

Cheers.

Daughter's not a tiny toons fan (nor I) so I'm not thinking of that. However I didn't think what I was thinking of, was what Kazuya ment. I was confusing Loony Tunes theme with the tag tune at the end. I may have imagined it, but I recall it was both Bugs & Daffy & it was only a couple of lines. Pooch shows you can find anything on the internet!
