Nick Lucas was at Tiny Tim's wedding on the Tonight Show. He sang this song, and at 76 he sounded just like he does here

Tiny Tim was made fun of but he really loved the old songs. He collected and preserved them. He was certainly under appreciated and misunderstood. Actually a very talented person.

Still charming at nearly a hundred years later

Its about 95 years ago this was recorded amzing.

Amazing to think my grandparents were 24 and 22 when this came out. The year before my dad was born. History.

This is the Original song "Tiptoe Through the Tulips" 1929

I’m the 100th like of this video. Greetings from Australia!!! 🇦🇺

Nick Lucas is the best jazz musician in history! His classics are honestly more beautiful and relaxing to listen to rather than modern day pop and rap music songs that are just too much. Nick’s classical songs actually feel so warm and comfortable to my eardrums and something I can peacefully listen to while going to sleep. ❤️😍🥰☺️. Also the fact that this film is 94 years old also makes it even more fascinating to jam out too. Nick Lucas is probably the one singer I’d definitely wanna meet up with when I pass away one day. 🥹🎼☺️❤️👍👍

Roy Del Ruth.

Did Busby Berkeley choreograph or help produce this? The scene with the costumed tulips being slowly opened reminds me a lot of an earlier version of his work on Broadway films such as 'Gold Diggers of 1935' with the infamous "Lullaby of Broadway" song/choreography. Dick Powell was in that...he was amazing 😊 I love films and Broadway shows from that time, a Golden Age indeed! Berkely's vision and work was incredible! 💙❤💜
