Swedish chef maakt Popcorn

De filmpjes in het Youtube-Muppetkanaal blijven leuk. Een kijkje in de keuken van de Swedish Chef bijvoorbeeld. Het deuntje dat iedereen kent komt uit de koker van Gershon Kingsley, die het nummer Popcorn als grap bedoelde:

The group toured the country, and it was in the course of his work with and around the quartet that Kingsley wrote a jocular little instrumental — really as a joke, based on the sound and rhythm of a popcorn popper — that seemed to go over as well as anything else in their programs. That piece, entitled “Popcorn” and recorded by quartet member Stan Free (with Kingsley) under the alias Hot Butter, became a monster hit in 1972 all over the world.”
