Covers:

1974:

Dirch Passer [Danish stand-up comedian as Fingernummeret from Cirkusrevyen; sketch shortlisted as the most typical example of Danish humour; literal copy of the original sketch, same finger movements, same "Da-Dada-Da, Da-Da-Da-Dada" melody (see sample in Kulturkanon tv-series after 36 minutes 58 seconds on www.dr.dk/kanon/asx/sm_kanon.asx)]

And so 'the most typical example of Danish comedy' (according to a national tv-format endorsed by the local Ministry of Culture) was smuggled in from the States, causing havoc. The late Dirch Passer, Danish stand-up comedy personified, and his writing partner Preben Kaas, visited the US in 1970.
