To Be or Not To Be

YouTube Tuesday presents: Mel Brooks

This satirical music video was released in conjunction with the Mel Brooks/Anne Bancroft remake of To Be or Not To Be.

The rap (though amusing in context with the film) is something I could live without, but the background melodies, the singers, and, of course, those shirtless male dancers are fabulous.

If you get the chance to see his other video released for History of the World Part I called "It's Good to be the King", you'll notice how uncannily similar it is.
