If you take a careful look into this photograph you can see ginger rogers with helen kane and fred astaire which means they actually knew one another.Īnother well known person who had no relation to helen kane sometimes used to imitate helen quite alot. Ginger Rogers - Ive got it but it dont do me no good It was then thought helen was singing under another recording label and a lawsuit was about to begin but annette and helen sorted that problem out.Īnother person to sometimes imitate Helen was Ginger Rogers


if you listen carefully to her booping routines in her first song she hadnt quite got the whole Boop Oop a Doop routine down, not until the song I Wanna be loved by you then the Boop Oop a Doop Lyrics were phrased properly.Īlthough helen kane stated the original scat lyrics were Poop Oop a Doop,in a 1959 interview helen changes and states the lyrics were Boop Oop a doop instead.Īfter helen kane performed i wanna be loved by you in 1928, her name went up in lights.Īfterwards you would see helen being imitated quite alot.Īround 1929 Annette Hanshaw started recording some Helen Kane imitations under names such as patsy young & Dot dare Well Helen kane started off with two recordings, Get out and under the moon & thats my weakness now. Helen kane was the originator of Boop Oop a Doop, even if she had seen Baby esthers Boop Oopy Doop routine, i really dont think baby esther boosted the Boop oop a Doop phrase. This topic has been around for a long time, but quite a few people who used the unique novelty style are missing.
