"Johnny Johnson and His Orchestra" performing the novelty tune "The Broken Record". This song is rather fun, as it parodies the common occurrence of records (at that time) getting a nasty chip or scratch, causing a skip in the record.

Lyrics (Transcribed from: lyricsplayground.com)
"My Sweetheart...
you're gorgeous-
you're gorgeous-
you're gorgeous-
you're gorgeous-
you're gorgeous-
you're gorgeous tonight."
That's the song I heard on the phonograph,
The needle caught on the broken half,
And kept playing...
And saying:
"My Sweetheart...
I kiss you-
I kiss you-
I kiss you-
I kiss you,
I kiss you-
I kiss you tonight."
All at once I started to think of you,
The things I've wanted to say and do,
When we're dancing...
Romancing.
The broken record played on and then,
The broken record started again:
"My Sweetheart...
I love you-
I love you-
I love you-
I love you,
I love you-
I love you, I do."
Oh, the tune sounds silly I will agree,
The words sound daffy, but not to me,
For there's no doubt it's the way I feel about you!
