Rodney Dangerfield - Funiculi, Funicula
Justin Plowman
Where did this tune come from? My first suspect is a show tune from a post-WW2 movie, but no, it's much older than that.
Funiculì, Funiculà is a Neapolitan song composed in 1880. It was written to commemorate the opening of the first funicular railway on Mount Vesuvius. The sheet music sold over a million copies within a year. Since its publication, it has been widely adapted and recorded. - paraphrased from Wikipedia
