Barney & Friends: We've Got Rhythm (Season 4, Episode 4)

Barney shows us things like Hey, okay Shanna, I've got the rest of the block, that's great. Maria, be careful, here you go. Thanks, just wait until everyone sees our Tower, okay, here's the last block. Easy, you're almost there. That's precisely what you know? I was putting my feathers back into place and it sounded like the sky was falling. Hello everyone. Hello, now we are having fun. Bj is my name. I love to play a game of baseball or maybe basketball. I'm usually in a hurry. but I never stopped worrying about what will happen if I stumble or fall.

I like to slide. I like to climb a tree. I wipe it with my shirt somehow. I'm ready to have fun. Yes, go see it. I like to play the drum. I like to jump. and execute my dream, the one I have. I think you're being too loud. Your drums made our tower fall and that made Barney go down the slide. Look, I slipped, I turned around and my eyes popped out. Sorry, oh it's okay, BJ, we know you were. I was just having fun, but BJ was doing a lot more than just making noise, he was moving too, but I was, oh yeah, I knew we learned about

rhythm

in school, our music teacher says a

rhythm

is a repetitive pattern. of rhythms, uh, say what, oh. well a meat is just a sound like beating the drum or clapping your hands and a rhythm is when you play a group of rhythms over and over again oh right I got it hey I'll show you BJ.

I know a rhythm game we can all play. together this is a song and a clapping game it's a lot of fun to play you can do it with a group you can do it with yourself you can do it almost every day just by listening you've done it again look now it's your turn handle a clapping part you can make it very loud or very soft, but get ready because we are going to start here, do it, the good thing about these claps is that the rhythm will never change, but the things we are about. to clap while you play, look at my little George.

I think you can take a good look at the clapping thing, the rhythm will never change, but things happened once again here, at the end of a clapping song at CERN in many countries, just to make us feel good about the last time everyone claps their heads. Now I get it, it's not hard to make a beat wait, it sure isn't, in fact sometimes you make beats without even knowing it. We, Julie Ashley, try to walk around the playground and clap. your hands every time you take a step, okay, hey, walking creates a slow rhythm and Hannah, why don't you try skipping it?

Dancing, okay, I made a faster type of rhythm, hey, this is fun, what other types of rhythms are there? Barney, well. Let's see, there is rhythm and music like in our clapping game and rhythms in our bodies like when you jump or walk and there are even rhythms in some of the games you like: playing cookie dough one two three four five six blaming Ashley, thanks my name, you're welcome, look, there's a rhythm, even when you're juggling the rope, would you like to play another game? This is a listening game and I bet if we listen very carefully we can hear rhythms everywhere.

Hey, the dog is barking. It's a rhythm, you're right and if we listen more closely maybe we'll hear a calm sound, right, uh, is there a problem with that? BJ, we're trying to listen to something quiet, oh, I think you wanted us to listen to you so much. that you forgot how important it could be to listen not to everyone if you want someone to listen to you then you need to listen to take turns talking it's like a game and listening when you listen he loves me Oh Barney listen to the raindrops listen to that bird listen to your mother and listen these words every child should stop stop you want someone to listen to you to listen take turns to talk it's like a game head listen when you're with your

friends

if you send it every day we're done What a beautiful idea, it's certainly important to listen, isn't it?

It doesn't matter, my teacher says that people all over the world make music with different types of drums. I really thought all the drums were pretty much the same. Well, you know what they say. Vijay. you want to learn something new yes wow they have books on drums how cool ok the drums were one of the first musical instruments and you will find them in every country in the world maybe you have seen drums like this in at a parade or in a circus, but in India you probably hear this type of drum, it's called a table, table, this is the Nigerian talking drum, you would love it, but a drummer can use it to send messages to

friends

who are far away in Ireland. plays a drum called a bodhrán look how thin it is there is an irish legend that says two friends had to share just one drum so they cut it in half and that was the first bonus but i think you're making drums with oto money it's very yes and use the beans to make noise inside the place with the lid on top and just do whatever you want funny what do you think?

Oh very well. I like your percussion zones and I hear our tambourine, you can hit them like a drum or you can just shake them mmm excellent could I try that? I'm sure we made extra tambourines for you and the Barney boys. We have our own rhythm band here we go Looby loo here we go Looby mine here we go Looby loo oh mom Saturday night I put my right hand in I put out my right hand I gave my hand to shake shake I can turn on you you are I surrender I put my left foot in I put my left foot out I surrendered myself put it all back I surrendered oh here we go that was a stupid thought I think drugs are ratified they are but there is more - the battery that just having fun can also be part of something very important like the good thing you could do say but I think my friends can do better what friends these friends are your Barney I'm Marvin oh my god hmm everyone I would like to introduce you to my very good friend Marvin Johnson and his daughter Micah hello everyone Marvin and Micah are Native Americans That's right, Barney, my family comes from the Choctaw Simoneau Chickasaw and Cheyenne Nations.

Johnson dances have been important to my people for a long time. I learned them when I was young and now I'm teaching them to Myka. Barney asks me to show him one of our opportunities while my father plays the drums first we have to put on special clothes that we brought okay see you outside yeah wow you guys look great thank you these are clothes we wear for very special occasions specials and look at that. cool drum, huh, my drum is made of wood and deerskin. The image shows a warrior collecting food for his tribe. The Cheyenne believe that there is a spirit in the drum and when I play the drum, the spirit comes out to the dancers.

Would you like to see one? Dance right now, yes, this dance is called the butterfly dance. It tells the story of a butterfly lady who is very sad when her husband dies, but over time she learns to be happy again. Are you ready? Oh mice, because that was just beautiful. Oh, I wish scooter. that you were able to hear it, what is your eh oh, I'm very happy mr. Johnson came to visit and I loved my hard work to learn a dance like that, but I'm sure it's also a lot of fun and I'm sorry, but we had a lot of fun talking about drums and stuff that I have to be around. release a little more I think I have too many Boom Boom Boom left, well then maybe we'd all better get those boom booms out of our systems and I know how to do it, crazy, crazy, crazy, with more attention and three blind mice sat down. on a curd stone covered with ice the little horse slipped and fell on the queen I would put the fleas and the horse on me to be crazy to be big to be crazy very far south four bananas grow four bananas please step on an elephant's toe the elephant cries with tears like eyes, why don't you bother?

So when you're gone, okay, BJ, do you still have some advantages left? Oh, I better check it. Okay, I ran out of all those, oh, that's good, we've been playing drums so much today. I think we could probably all use a little rest, oh I think I'll go home and tell them how much fun we had. See you later guys. I guess CJ is gone, things will be a lot calmer around here and although we've seen a lot of drums to beat I know one thing you can't beat: spending a day with friends, you learn I love you, you love me, we're a happy family with a big hug and a kiss from me to you.

Don't you say you love me too, my friend, let's get our pieces of wood into me? We can have a parade. Oh, hello everyone, it's Barney time. Wow, again to all my friends. I'm glad you came to play and learn. it never ends this is what we did today the fun started when BJ started playing it's drama we learned that drums can come in all shapes and sizes our Native American friends use drums to help fill stories I'm sure you'll love making music with drums and remember I love you
