Colonel Hathi's March (The Elephant Song)

"Colonel Hathi's March (The Elephant Song)" is a song in the 1967 Walt Disney film, The Jungle Book. The song was sung by J. Pat O'Malley, playing the part of "Colonel Hathi". The song was also sung by Thurl Ravenscroft and The Mellomen, originally Terry-Thomas and Disney Chorus. The song was written by Disney staff songwriters, Robert and Richard Sherman. It is written in the spirit of a light commentary on the pointlessness of constant military drilling.[1] A reprise version has the first appearance of Shere Khan.

Composition

The Shermans were brought onto the film by Walt Disney, who felt that the film in keeping with Rudyard Kipling's book was too dark for family viewing. In a deliberate effort to keep the score light, this song as well as the Sherman Brothers' other contributions to the score generally concern darker subject matter than the accompanying music would suggest.[2] "Colonel Hathi's March" was the first song written by the siblings. As the elephants were "big clunky animals, crushing everything as they march through", the Shermans thought the best song for them would be a "heavy and ponderous" military march, with feeble lyrics only describing how the platoon tramples what is in its path.[3]

Spirale de Fraser

Spirale de Fraser. La spirale de Fraser est une illusion d'optique qui tient son nom du psychologue britannique James Fraser, qui l'étudia le premier en 1908. On l'appelle aussi « fausse spirale », ou, d'après son nom originel, « illusion des cordes emmêlées ». Bien que composée de cercles concentriques, l'image donne l'impression d'une spirale sans fin. Ceci est dû au fait que des motifs réguliers (les cercles) sont combinés avec un motif non aligné (les band...
