And my piano teacher wonders why I can get every song right except for this one.......

"I can get rid of the rabbit, and it'll look like an accident!" rigs up TNT to a xylophone

33 years old and still enjoyed them. These gags never get old. I was very surprised at the end. When they showed the cartoon short Slappy Squirrel from Animaniacs.

NO, NO, NO! YOU DO IT LIKE THIS!! (piano explodes)

You know, I finally get why Daffy Duck is saying how “instead of a xylophone, you’ll be playing a harp” after watching the earliest edition of this joke.

The way yosemite sam pronounce piano kill me everytime lmao

“It’ll look like an accident” Yes because Xylophones are known for randomly exploding

"Old gag, new twist." Best ending ever!

"Okay then... Can you play the Piana (Pie-Ann-Ah)?!" - Yosemite Sam The way Yosemite Sam pronounces Piano never gets old lol

Leave it to Slappy Squirrel to take an old gag and make it fresh.

I think we can all agree that those charms are anything but endearing.

I wonder how Michael Bay would do this in one of his movies.

Yosemite Sam and Daffy Duck says exactly the same words to get rid of Bugs Bunny "YOU STUPID RABBIT LIKE THIS"

I love Aunt Slappy. "Old gag, new twist."

Thumbs up if you agree with me that this should be a kill in a "Hitman" game (Agent 47)

When Slappy did it, here were my thoughts: "I know what's going to happen. She's going to play it, miss the note twice, the bulldog comes in, plays the whole thing, and blows up. Still look forward to it. Okay so far it's playing out just as I knew it would, I know this gag---------Wha?! *Burst out laughing* That was comedy GOLD! Love you Slappy!!!!"

This could work if a real assassin tried it. It's so associated with cartoons no one would suspect.

6:31 Terry Crews: EXPLOSIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!!!!!!

3:51 Oh, of all the times he could have grabbed him!!!

The one song I won't play on the pie-anna

After seeing Sam easily lift and carry that big, heavy, piano right up the stairs onto the bandstand like some superman, you would think he might be able to withstand that explosion... But eh...

I'm surprised Dexy's Midnight Runners never blew up after playing the first few notes of "Come on Eileen"

It's executed best in "Show Biz Bugs".

Yosemite Sam: Oooooh, you stupid rabbit! Like this.....! (Plays correct keys, BOOM, piano explodes the hair clean off Sam's face) 😂😂😂

I love it! The classic gag. It's never goes out of style.

3:07 the beak always kills me 🤣 😂

Looney Tunes is my favorite show. It's so funny.

This never gets old.

Me and my grandson watched this, Had us laughing like crazy. I really like the wtf clips towards the end. Thank you for posting.

3:40 Road Runner: Playing the Piano And hits the wrong note

Even South Park paid homage to this gag with Jimmy playing a C4-rigged ukulele. The ukulele solo in the song was _Those Endearing Young Charms_ and Jimmy couldn't remember how to play it correctly.

0:38 “Ah to hell with it, I never could get that last note anyhoo.”

I love how the band in Show Biz bugs immediately stops playing when Bugs hits the wrong note. XD

Daffy: Xylophone? Hmm I get rid the rabbit and look like an ancient. (build a 💣 under Xylophone) When he strikes this note instead of xylophone, he'll be playing a harp. ( Evil laugh)

1:54 😡Yosemite Sam: Nooooo! That's not it Try it Again

When he strikes this note, instead of a xylophone, he'll be playing a harp.

I remember how Yosemite Sam played the piano super fast, compared to Bugs playing it at the normal tempo. And thanks for showing Animaniacs referencing the gag!

PIE-ANNA...ROFL!!! Epic..never gets old..lol!!

I love that Daffy thinks an exploding xylophone looks like an accident.

Fabulous, absolutely fabulous, that is first time that I think I could remember Yosemite Sam Clean Shaven.

Killer Queen has already touched the piano

They always call bugs a stupid rabbit RIGHT b4 they get blasted 2 smitherines😂😂😂😂

Tsar bomb 5:46 worlds largest nuke Unknown nuke from the 40s 6:30 FINAL NOO! 7:27

Those Endearing Young Charms - BOOM!!!!!! A tribute to the 4 Girly Manly Idolizers episodes that used this hilarious bomb joke and a little experimental editing at the end.

This song gave us 90s kids PTSD anytime we played the piano

And nearly a decade later... If I remember right, Snafu then played the tune on his harp and blew up again.

Admit it: you can't hear the intro to the song "Come on Eileen" without expecting to see Daffy Duck explode.

Daffy could've let Bugs make a fool of himself, and win. The coyote could've grabbed the road runner instead of pushing him away, and win.

this gag never ever gets old

Think I'll skip learning this one on piano.

I miss it when cartoons were allowed to be violent.

If bugs bunny was in mortal kombat 11, this should be his fatality.

I can see him play the song on the steel drums!!

And in Animaniacs "Slappy Goes Walnuts"

Somehow, Wyle E. Coyote, genius that he is, never thought to grab The Road Runner at the piano. He shooed him away.

For anyone who's interested, there is a bittersweet love story behind the song Believe Me, If All Those Endearing Young Charms, which hails from Ireland. Although the words were written in 1803, the tune, which is traditional, is much older. The poet who composed it did it to cheer up his wife, who was depressed over her lovely face being forever pitted and marked after a bout with smallpox. Basically, the words of the song mean that it is the beauty within that matters, not the outside.

This is why Yoshikage Kira does not use Killer Queen on musical instruments. People keep messing up the tune. The last one is something he would have done.

"Can you play the payano?" Reminds me of those weird people who pronounce "Iraq" and "Iran" as "ayraq" and "ayran". :-p

Those guys never get old

AWWWWW.....The piece from Animaniacs where it fell on his head and exploded should have been on here too

It's such a common gag, the only cartoon veterans would avoid it so easily

I played this on my nephews toy piano for shits and giggled and my dad in the other room asked if I thought I was Bugs Bunny 😂

Throwing a match into gunpowder and provoking Yosemite Sam to retrieve it, and the endearing young charms bomb joke are my favorite running gags on Looney Tunes.

Who says clips aren't crazy and then again they are so totally impressive and hilarious and explosive!!

Those who believe the endearing young charms--Boom!!!!!!

As previously noted, "Booby Traps" (1944) was originally seen in the "Private Snafu" segment of "The Army-Navy Screen Magazine".

My theory: Bugs/Road Runner knew the piano/xylophone was bombed and they were deliberately trolling Daffy/Wile E. to have them blow themselves up.

Could you imagine the outrage if this gag was on SpongeBob?

The Tzar Bomba at 5:47, 50 megaton of TNT!!

Endearing young charms boom!!!!!!!!

cartoon where the man was playing a piano & blows up by smoking

My dad and I loved these!

6:57 I love the show

Those endearing young charms, That's always good for a laugh.

Do-Re-Mi -do boom!!!!

can you imagine somebody playing that song on a saxophone??

I would really love to be at a London Symphony Orchestra or Boston Pops concert if they would play Those Endearing Young Charms. It would be amusing to see how many members of the audience duck and cover when they get to those fateful notes.

Best cartoons ever made they should never be edited.

Goody! That's what you get for playing the xylophone with the bomb wired to it.

6:47 now streaming on Hulu

Sorry I just misspelled it I was saying the piano explodes after the note saying charms and kaboom

GOTTA~LOVE~IT!!! PIANO COMPILATION...

This gag is so over used we know what the outcome is going to be.. 😂

The guys at Insomniac should weaponize this gag in a Ratchet and Clank game some day.

Great way to bypass the copyright grounds!! :D

Slappy Squirrel uses the exact same tune to blow up her enemy in Animaniacs

5:05 That was a scene from the movie 'The Wraith' starring a young Charlie Sheen. Good movie by the way if you like things blowing up.

The villains play the song by ending the song with a boom

Soo classic from my childhood

Cue The Price Is Right loser horns!!-Also cue Peter Marshall.s old Hollywood Squares TACKY BUZZER!!

Cuddles: cool! a piano! 🎵 cuddles play "believe me if all those endearing young charms" 🎵 *hitting the wrong notes* Cuddles: what?! What the f*ck?! 🎵 Cuddles continues to play "believe me if all those endearing young charms" 🎵 *he's hitting the wrong notes* Cuddles: what a calamity! 🎵 Cuddles play "believe me if all those endearing young charms" again 🎵 *hitting the wrong notes again* Cuddles: whoops! Fliqpy: get out! Cuddles: i'm out! 🎵 fliqpy plays "believe me if all those endearing young charms" 🎵 *explosion*

It's still a funny gag. :p

Goody! That's what you get for playing the piano with the bomb wired to it.

3:52 No! No! No! You stupid bird! Like this!

So we're just going to gloss over the fact that the figure playing the triangle in the first one looks like Hitler? Okay then.

Does CNN explodes after saying charms and kaboom

Warren Foster intially created this gag for Bob Clampett's "Booby Traps" (1944). Then, he reworked it into Friz Freleng's "Ballot Box Bunny" (1951)...and again, for Freleng's "Show Biz Bugs" (1957). Then, in 1965, David Detiege revived it for Bob McKimson's "Rushing Roulette"...and AGAIN, it was exhumed for that "ANIMANIACS" "Slappy and Squirrely" cartoon...

Deidara was in all the episodes saying my art is an explosion.

I wonder what made them choose this song for the gag, 😆

Old gag, new twist.
