This is the NICKIE GOOMBA CHALLENGE.
Here's your assignment. Watch this entire clip carefully from beginning to end. Then tell me whether you agree with me that this early Music Video deserves an R rating..
There's no boobs or profanity. The only exposed skin is on the guitarist's calves. But there are Peggy Lee's playful seductive eyes, stunning flirtatious lips, and a voice that oozes rainy day sexuality. What's YOUR opinion?

Peggy Lee? How about Julie London, Jack Webb's wife (at one time).
Grandaddy told me about her.
Now THAT'S a singer!
She had more talent in her little finger than Michael Jackson had in his entire body!
Oh, and I second that about Julie London! She was also married to jazz pianist Bobby Troupe!
Both Troupe and London were cast members on Emergency! which was produced by Webb's production company.
Great singer and song.
St. Nicholas,
I was tracking with you on the "R" rating ... see, you said something about calves ... and then I realized you were talking about the guitar player! Man, and then I saw that cheesecake. Ruined it.
Brother, can you spare some one to work on wordrobe?
As seasoned followers of this blog will recall, I lost my teen innocence to a gentle and patient Julie London. I will always have a special place in my heart for her.
But, you guys will understand this... despite her sultry image, Jule was a talker during intimate moments. Gardening practices, auto repair, and show business rivalries were all distracting topics too overwhelming for such a young pup of a boy.
But, she sure could sing.
Wolfie, did you notice the sexy lip - eye playfulness at about 2:05 in?
Wow.
DC, you are fully aware of the technique needed to cope with much of life's distractions... squint, man, squint.
DC told me about the London affair, Goomba. Luckily, they dropped the charges.
Duh. It's easy for an old blind guy to dole out such advice. I rolled up on that c-cake before I could take defensive measures.
But, my older Italian brother, I am glad you found a lady to talk gardening, car repair and other assorted Wal-Martesque topics with you.
Rhod, the legalities are history. My heart, though, is both fragile and immediate.
DC...
How typical of a Texan to "roll up" on cheesecake.
Take my advice, dear friend... at least get out of the Oldsmobile to say hello. It really impresses them.
R for "Right On". They don't make em like this anymore. Sexy and playful.
Thanks for sharing.
The "R" rating ...if you look really close, the guy playing the G-tar had an erection and was wearing flood pants.
Hey Nickie, the comment about Biology sealed the deal on the R rating!
But that horrible guitar player ruined the thing. If we could put Chet together with Peggy we'd have Nirvanna, or at least we'd be

Makin Believe
Sultry...PG-13
Classic. She makes Britney Spears and Madonna look like streetwalkers, and she doesn't have to run her voice through some machine to sound good.
Teacher, I need tutoring...
Admiral, I believe the R was for ARRRRR!!
Dude, unlike you and DC, my glance never made it over to the guy's pants.
Nice one, Kid. You're startin' to impress me.
Eman... You are a man of few word.
Sol, don't we all?
This is a dame with class, but not too much.
This woman sing like sweet chicken. She sing like moon shine. Very good.
Nick, I couldn't help it. The glare off that cheesecake nearly blinded me. At least now Dude gave us an explanation for why they were hiked so high.
Hop?! Man, it's good to hear from you. I miss seeing you around. I've got bad news, though. Harry Reid and Obama have taken over the Ponderosa and are holding out on extending bailout funds to Panda Express nationwide. Tough times. We need your perspective to get through this.
You no go far no more ...
Okay she is gorgeous! I never knew what she looked like. I knew her voice from Lady and the Tramp (she voiced the dog that tells Lady all about the Tramp when Lady got sent to the pound). LOVE HER VOICE!

Zooey Deschanel
Loner,
Zooey is a lovely talented young woman but a little too dry for my taste. Have young women lost the flirtatious gene?
Nothing like the sound of mariachi music in the kitchen and General Joe's Chopstix. Makes me long for simple days with Pa, Candy, Hoss, and Hop.
Does this hardtack have any MSG?
Nic, pretty sultry stuff.
I have my moments Mr Gumba.
Thank ya.
Great video. She doesn't need to put on any effort to be amazingly sexy! Damn!
Take it from me, the sweet, proper ladies are the ones who will leave you gasping for breath when you finally earn time with them. And that dress -- sure, it covered everything, but it made sure you knew exactly where her curves were. And yes, 2:05-2:20 is where she completely went from PG to R.
Ok, so I'm not a guy but I watched anyway. I agree (in a totally non-lesbian way) she's sexy, but I was more impressed with the dexterity of the guitar players fingers.
Hubba hubba.
When she gave the book a little slap towards the end... I think she knows plenty. Beautiful voice - and to think I only knew her from Lady & the Tramp.
