Ty Parvis / Marvin T.Hatley - Honolulu Baby
recorded 1933, written by Marvin T. Hatley, performed by Ty Parvis (if you know more about this guy - let me know) While down on a south sea island underneath the beauty of the stars I st rayed upon some maidens who were strumming on their guitars a hula maid was dancing and I knew I´d found my paradise So this is what I told her as I gazed into her eyes Honolulu baby, where d´ya get those eyes and the dark complexion I just idolise Honolulu baby where did you get that style and those pretty red lips and that sunny smile When you start to dance, your hula hips entrance then you shake it up and down you shake a little here, you shake as little there well you got the boys going to town Honolulu baby, you know your stuff, Honolulu baby, don´t call your bluff

Ty Parvis seems to be having just a little too much "fun" doing this musical number ... draw your own conclusion. Although not considered a dancer, per se; much of his agility can be attributed to being all of 20 or 21 years old at the time of this filming. This is a Hal Roach Production, THE KEYSTONE SCHOOL of film making. The "Hula" costumes are definitely pre-production code. Great overhead Busby Berkeley style kaleidoscope shot.

I would say he was gay. I remember reading his bio once and there was never a mention of a wife and family.

The best LH movie. Great song to boot. And Charley Chase is a riot in the convention scenes.
