The VeggieTales folks took a poll of their numerous fans and came up with the top 10 silliest songs from their library of made-for-video shows. The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything (played by Pa Grape, Mr. Lunt, and Larry the Cucumber) host the simple event, counting down the top 10 music videos. Will it be "Love My Lips" or "The Song of the Cébu" or possibly "The Dance of the Cucumber?" We ain't telling. But for any fan, and especially those who haven't seen all of the "Silly Songs with Larry" segments, the show's a treat. Stay around for the catchy dance-mix version of the songs over the end credits. (Ages 3 and up) --Doug Thomas

WARNING: This tape contains high doeses of extreme sillines!
Ever wondered which silly song from the Veggie Tales videos is the silliest? Well, you are just about to find out! Hosted by the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything (aka Larry the cucumber, Pa Grape, and Mr. Lunt), "The Ultimate Silly Song Countdown" is, well... just what is says. The countdown to which song is the silliest of all! After collecting votes from Veggie Tales fans, you'll be able to know the results. Is it "The Cheeseburger Song"? "I Love My Lips"? "The Hairbrush Song"? Find out as you watch this hilariously fun 43 minutes program!
For a while I've been thinking that the Veggie Tales are only for younger kids and especially not for teenagers. But after getting a few tapes from my friends and watching them, I realized I was totally wrong! I just really LOVE the videos and I've been enjoying watching them with my parents! And probably my most favorite Veggie Tale is "The Ultimate Silly Song Countdown". The songs are just so silly that my parents and I were just laughing, laughing, and laughing! In our opinions though, are favorites are "Endangered Love" and "I Love My Lips". The "Water Buffalo Song" is pretty fun, too. And it's not just the songs which are great, whenever the countdown machine malfunctions, you get to watch the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything, who are also extremely silly. So if you like Veggie Tales, heard of it, or even if you've never even heard of it, I highly recommend you watch this tape! (And also, don't miss the dance mixes of the silly songs at the very end.)
The other Veggie Tale videos are also very enjoyable with great Christian values, each teaching a very valuable lesson. One of my favorites is "King George and the Ducky", which teaches about selfishness.
And what is YOUR favorite Veggie Tales' Silly Song??
This video is a must-have for Silly Song Fans everywhere.
Hosted by "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything", this is a countdown show from the #10 Silly Song to the #1 favorite Silly Song of all time. The votes (taken on the Veggie Tales website) have been tabulated by the "Astonishing Contraption of Silliness." Occasionally, there is a glitch in the machine, which causes a very mixed-up title, but the Silly Songs on this video will no doubt be YOUR favorites from the Veggie Tales series.
You will get to see 10 full-length Silly Songs. This video is 43 minutes long, about 13 minutes longer than most Veggie Tales videos. If you have children who will want to watch the same songs over and over, obviously the DVD would be a better choice for you!
The only reason I gave this 4 stars and not 5 is that there isn't any really new material. They do have an entertaining format in how they announce the next song, but the songs are all ones that Veggie Tales fans have heard before.
Be watching for Veggie Tales' full-length movie, "Jonah" to appear in theaters in 2002!
Please check out my reviews of Christian videos, books, and music!
Ultimate silliness. . .
. . .provided by "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything"!
This video is a "must-have" for all fans of Bob the Tomato, Larry the Cucumber and all the rest of your salad-drawer favorites! What the producers of "Veggie-Tales" have done in this video is to take the funniest of the "Silly Songs" from the last umpteen videos and present them in a "Top 10 Countdown" format, familiar to anyone who has ever listened to the radio or watched music television.
In between the various songs, the viewer is treated to hysterical commentary by "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything" as the tabulation machine routinely malfunctions. Not to be missed is Larry the Cucumber and Mr. Lunt as they rap to a Chinese restaurant menu. Finally, demonstrating once again that cartoons are presented on many levels, the countdown concludes with a "voting controversy" when Pa Grape "discovers" a hitherto unknown bag of "uncounted votes". Certainly a humorous spoof on the 2000 elections!
This collection of songs from the "Veggie-Tales" series is highly recommended!
