Can anyone identify the music in this YouTube clip of a vintage car show?

My five-year-old cartoon physicist really likes it, but I have no idea what it is, other than some kind of generally Muppetish ragtime number.


Any guesses?

1. Oy. Tough one. All that old ragtime music sounds so similar to me.

It sounds a little like "My Baby Don't Mean Maybe Now" or "Everybody Loves My Baby," but it's not. Sorry. :shrug:

2. I am fairly sure that's a modern piece

I am pretty intimately familiar with most vintage ragtime and Tin Pan Alley and twenties hot jazz compositions, and that's not one I've ever heard. It sounds like something written for a movie. Or maybe Muppets, as you say.

3. you might check the sound track for...

...Thoroughly Modern Millie.

4. It sounds like library music to me.

It seems to be a pastiche of 20's and 30's cliches. I hear snatches of "Second Hand Rose" and "Back Home Again In Indiana" in there.

The fact that it was recorded with mostly sampled instruments also makes me believe that it was produced on the cheap and intended for commercial licensing.

It's title is probably something like, "Razzmatazz 3", or "Old Times 4".

5. From the video submitter's comment on YouTube:

.
Thank You the music came with a old video edit
program I had that's all I know about it.

6. Doh. Missed that. Thanks!

I did a brief sweep through the user comments but must've overlooked the poster's.


Thanks!

7. Have you thought of emailing the person

and asking them what the song is? I'm sure they would tell you if you told them why you wanted it.

8. That's a great idea--I should have thought of that.

But I have to admit that I figured it would be more fun to pick the collective Lounge-brain to see if anyone had a suggestion.

I'll send her a missive and see what she says, though as was pointed out up-thread, the music came with the editing software she used.

Still...
