Waiters march music

[Welchy]

Could anyone tell me the name of the tune they play when the waiting and kitchen staff do the small march around the MDR? (the one everyone waves their napkins around to) Sounds upbeat and Italian. Thanks:)

If it's this one, then the tune is called "Hey! Look Me Over" from the musical Wildcat.

 

[nelblu]

Hey look us over.

[Welchy]

Its the song thats playing in this video

 

[ehfl]

It's likely one of these Neapolitan songs...

Try the Costa forum...the Italians should be able to identify it right away.

And somehow there are CC members out there that think this is 5 star dinning?:)

 

Edit: It is good and fun but not 5 star.

Is it the one they do on Italian night? If so it's called "O Sole Mio"

[JMG]

Sounds like Funiculì, Funiculà

Okay, that's actually the song that plays BEFORE O Sole Mio on Italian Night, which is called "The Tarantella"

I dont see anyone claiming this to be 5 star dinning. It would be impossible to have five star dinning for the amount of people they serve. They do a great job considering the thousands of people they serve.

Count me in as part of the posters who enjoys the cheesy waiters farewell performance. It is part of the cruise experience. Fortunately, we all know which night it is and if a person cannot handle 5 minutes of fun - they can always leave early, choose MTD or eat elsewhere.

 

There are a few posters who must always post snide remarks whenever service or food in the MDR is mentioned. As far as I know, and I've been on the boards for a few years, no poster has ever called the food in the MDR 5 star. At most people have enjoyed the food and have a few favorites. Even the most snobbish gourmand has a favorite fast food dive that they enjoy. :rolleyes:

 

Royal Caribbean is fortunate or not so fortunate, that for a main stream cruise line catering to families and average joes, they have quite a few professional food critics traveling on their ships. :D

So over the singing and interruptions to the flow of dinner for this! HATE it, but I understand the waiters don't have any choice in this cheesy production. First time is okay. After seeing it on numerous cruises, I just excuse myself and stand on the open deck until it's over.

Naw, you can't wave your napkin to that song...LOL

The napkin-waver tune is "Hey Look Me Over". :cool:

I dont mind the singing and dancing all but does the music really have to be so BLARING loud? :confused:

That is the farewell song on the last night. The song in the video is from Italian night.

I agree with you 100%. However over the last few months there have been a few posters expecting the MDR to be 5 star, mainly first timers. As I stated it is good food with a fun venue, especially for the amount of people they are cooking for.

Scribbles- yeah, I hear you. It's a fun song, but it tends to be hard to decipher the lyrics with all of the multiple accents and dialects! LOL ;)

[LuckiStac13*Majesty*]

That's the one!! Thanks :D

 

You are very welcome! It brings back good memories for me, too :)
