And the poor little girl’s turning blue

Posted on May 17, 2007 by batjay

dear unkyel batjay,

doon po sa kantang “Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka-dot Bikini”, ano po ba doon ang yellow, yung bikini o yung polka dots?

nagmamahal,
gentle reader

dear gentle reader,

tanginangyan, di ko alam ang sagot.

who knows what thoughts lie in the mind of the song’s composer. for all we know, yellow ang kulay ng bikini at yellow din ang kulay ng polka-dot.

ingat,
unkyel batjay

i was thinking yellow-is-the-bikini initially but after some thorough reflection (talagang nag-ponder kuno lol), my guess is polka dot ang yellow, polka dot being a noun. had it said polka-dotted, then bikini it is. thought-provoking Q…. 🙂

Yun nga atang bikini ang dilaw. dilaw na may polka dot. Ah, basta ang alam ko e napaka liit nya. Pero considering na nuon pang 60’s yang kantang yan e palagay ko, malaki pa rin yan by today’s standard.

ilang taon ko na rin itong pinag-iisipan at hanggang ngayon ay conflicted pa rin ako.

who knows what thoughts lie in the mind of the song’s composer. for all we know, yellow ang kulay ng bikini at yellow rin ang kulay ng polka-dot.

nung buhay pa yung “superstar” show ni ate guy, naalala ko na kinanta niya ‘to tapos nakatakip siya ng twalya….and …at the end (keri nio “to) nilaglag bigla ang twalya at bumulaga ang two-piece swimsuit na suot nia at yellow ang background tapos black yung dots.

or yellow yung towel tapos si ate guy yung black…

sori po…early signs of dementia…hehehehhe

Kung yellow ang bikini, ano ang kulay ng polka-dots?
Kung yellow ang dots, ano ang kulay ng bikini? Kung pareho silang yellow, di ba plain na lng yon? Or pedeng lighter shade of yellow either the bikini or the dots? Hay! Pahingi ngang tubig na may yelo!!
Sakit sa ulo!

hmmm…
kapag sinabi mong stripes na yellow yung nasa damit mo, yellow yung stripes.
kapag sinabi mong polka dots na yellow, yellow yung polka dots???

pero kapag sinabi mong yellow yung stripes, stripes din naman yung ibang kulay…

so, buti na lang nakigulo lang ako sa usapan. 🙂
merry christmas na lang sa pasko!
