A tribute to an old fiddle tune.

1. Way down in Carolina where the sweet potatoes grow
There lives a dusky maiden by the name of Liza Snow
She used to go to parties where they'd always make her sing
But say, you ought to see that baby do the pigeon wing
They held a dancing contest and were goin' to give a prize
They all had on their finest and it now was up to Lize
Just who was goin' to win it everybody there could feel
When Liza hollered to the band to play the Chicken Reel
"Clear the crowd away, tell the band to play
When yer hear me say "GO" my honey"
Chorus:
Oh you Chicken Reel, how you make me feel
Say, it's really so entrancin', who could ever keep from dancin'
That's the music sweet, like the chicken meat
Give it to me with the dressin', I don't need no dancin' lesson
Put all the other fine selections right away
That is the only tune I want to hear you play
When I get married if there's music I will say
"Hey boss, keep a-playin' Chicken Reel all day"
2. One night when from a party she was walkin' home with Bill
Now he's her steady feller and the night was dark and still
It seems he stole a chicken, and when Liza looked at that
She said I'm goin' to wear it on my go-to-meetin' hat
I guess you're goin' crazy answered William with a smile
But Liza said, "Go on you havn't heard the latest style"
When first she wore it out the people asked her to explain
But Liza simply said, "Why I have chicken on the brain"

Orlacs Hände (The Hands of Orlac) full movie online. Classic movie of Silent film. German Expressionism.
Orlac, affermato pianista, perde le mani in un grave incidente. I medici decidono allora di trapiantargli le mani di un assassino condannato a morte. L'operazione riesce perfettamente, ma, da quel momento, una serie di strani omicidi, generalmente commessi a mezzo dello strangolamento delle vittime, vengono commessi e la polizia, che inizialmente brancola nel buio, comincia a sospettare del pianista. Alla fine si scopre che il colpevole era, invece, da tutt'altra parte. (FILMAFFINITY)
Movie in public domain in the country of origin
"White Zombie" is a 1932 American independent Pre-Code horror film directed and produced by brothers Victor Halperin and Edward Halperin, respectively. The screenplay by Garnett Weston tells the story of a young woman's transformation into a zombie at the hands of an evil voodoo master. Béla Lugosi stars as the antagonist, Murder Legendre, with Madge Bellamy appearing as his victim. Other cast members included Robert W. Frazer, John Harron and Joseph Cawthorn.
Large portions of the White Zombie were shot on the Universal Studios lot, borrowing many props and scenery from other horror films of the era. White Zombie opened in New York to negative reception, with reviewers criticizing the film's over-the-top story and weak acting performances. While the film made a substantial financial profit as an independent feature, it proved to be less popular at the box office than other horror films of the time.
White Zombie is considered the first feature length zombie film. A sequel to the film, titled Revolt of the Zombies, opened in 1936. Modern reception to White Zombie has been more positive than its initial release. Some critics have praised the atmosphere of the film, comparing it to the 1940s horror film productions of Val Lewton, while others still have an unfavorable opinion on the quality of the acting.

A complete LIST OF THE SONGS by year is available in this link. You can also see some analysis and conclusions drawn there:
http://misguidedrant.blogspot.com/2010/10/evolution-of-popular-music-by-year-in.html
This video is intended to give a very light overview of the popular music hits, by year, in the USA, as recorded throughout history.
Very few effects of time travel are known, but one of them includes the sensation that the tracks are getting shorter and shorter as we approach our day and age.
All the pictures are intended to represent at least one of the original authors of the song WHEN it became a hit
Not always will the recording used match the described year (for obvious technological and quality reasons)
Why the U.S.A. alone? Information about its pop history is more easily available and dates further back, as well as the availability of some of the original songs' files.
Accuracy? I cann't guarantee 100% authenticity from the period between 1890 to 1949, but I can guarantee the authencity from that period onwards. My main source was the website musicoutfitters.
