Snoopy is S.I.G.

Neat panda! I think my teddy wants to watch Captain Scarlet!

Greeting Folks.
I wonder if any of you know that The Royal Guardsmen, Snoopy Christmas is only one of three (or four, if you count Snoopy for President) songs in the story line. The first one is Snoopy vs The Red Baron, then the Christmas one and then Return of the Red Baron (aka Snoopy vs The Red Baron part 2). I had always wondered about the line “the allied command ignored all of its men and called on Snoopy, to do it again” in Snoopy’s Christmas until I heard Snoopy vs The Red Baron, then it made sense.
There is also another Snoopy song that the ‘Guardsmen’ did The Smallest Astronaut but Snoopy is not actually mention. You should watch it on youtube (the one with snoopy coin picture).

Hi, VMR. I have listened to the 3 Snoopy vs Red Baron recordings on YouTube at one time or another, but not sequentially. I'll have to make a playlist in chronological order to get the full effect. I'll check out the other "Snoopy" installments you mentioned as well.

In Oz the order of records released was definitely Snoopy vs The Red Baron, The Return of the Red Baron then Snoopy's Christmas. All three records were a success in Oz (however Snoopy for President barely charted).

The surprising bit was how successful Snoopy vs The Red Baron was, considering that every time the song line 'the bloody Red Baron' was sung the word 'bloody' was bleeped out on the radio, as it was considered a swear word in those days. I'm not making that up BTW.

When my father bought the record, of course we got to the hear the song - swear word and all - which bothered my mother. After a while it didn't seem to matter. Now people don't believe me when I tell them how controversial that record was when it was released.

I sort of do but had forgotten, it until you mentioned it. And you're probably right about the order, I had a hard time remembering the order. (Didn't have the CD with me, oh well.)
