01x21 - Milo The Musician

[bunniefuu]

-[opening theme] -[Milo, Lofty, Lark] MILO!

MILO!

MILO!

-MILO! -[Milo giggles]

[music on radio]

Look and listen

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Can you hear it now? It's-

-[door opens] -A customer!

Oh, off you run! I'll go solo!

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

[happy rock guitar melody]

Hi, Dave! Nice riff!

Cheers! I need my stage outfit cleaned, please.

Dave and The Dodgers are playing a show later.

-Who are Dave and The Dodgers? -Well, I'm Dave...

-[laughs] -and The Dodgers are me band!

Gonna be a great gig tonight!

The bright lights,

-the pounding of the drums, -[drums playing]

the guitars turned all the way up to eleven.

[upbeat rock guitar melody]

Wow!

Oh, Dave! Uh, if your band ever needs another musician,

I've always fancied myself as a guitarist!

-[guitar melody] -[string breaks]

[Milo, Lofty, Lark laugh]

[clears throat] Well, uh...

we'd better get that outfit cleaned for you, Dave.

[trumpet announcement]

Ladies and gentlemen, Dave has left the building!

We'll take these to Suds, Dad!

-Hi, Suds! -Hello, my bubbly-buddies!

What have you got for me today?

A musician's outfit, Suds!

Ah-ha! That explains the "grunge"!

[all giggling]

We'll need plenty of soap and a...

"finely tuned" drum to get this clean!

[all giggling]

[whirring]

Suds, do you have any musician's outfits we can wear?

Now let me see...

- [upbeat music] - [clapping hands]

[bubbles pop]

[bubbling]

Wow! We're musicians!

At a music festival!

-[Dave] I don't believe it! -[Milo, Lofty, Lark gasp]

-Ooh. -What's wrong, Dave?

I'm in a right pickle! Dave and The Dodgers were supposed to be

-at the town festival... -Ooh.

But the rest of the band have broken down!

Sounds like they need a mechanic!

I know! That would be me!

I need to go and fix the van, which means...

we'll miss the show!

We can play the festival for you.

-You? -We're a band too!

Flatten my fifth! You are a band!

You're on!

-We might need some instruments, though. -Not a problem.

We've got spares!

-[guitar strum] -Wow!

-[soft drumming] -Cool!

Yes!

Erm... what is it?

That's a trombone. Give it a blow!

-[Milo, Lark laughing] -The other end, Lofty!

[trombone melody]

All you need now is a song to play.

A song? I don't think we know any!

Oh! Does Humpty Dumpty count?

-[Milo, Lark] No way! -Then you'll have to write one.

-How do we that? -Well, a good place to start

is writing a song about what you know.

[Leonard on loudspeaker] Testing, testing! One-two, one-two!

Leonard's doing the sound check! I'll let him know you're taking our place.

Better get song writing! Laters Alligators!

[Milo, Lofty, Lark playing music]

Oh! Let's make a song up about something at the festival!

I like Chef Pierre's Toffee Apple Stand. Let's write a song about that!

[in French accent] A song pour moi?

That would be... music to my ears!

I like toffee apples, I like-

Um... what rhymes with "apples"?

-Mapples! -Bapples!

Frapples!

[guitar strum]

They all rhyme with apples!

Yes, they do all rhyme with apples, but...

they are not proper words.

Aww!

Perhaps you could write your song somewhere else, please.

You're blocking my... [clears throat]

customers.

Sorry, Chef Pierre.

Come on, let's go. Um...

Where's Lofty?

Ooh...

A song about the Bouncy Castle!

Brilliant idea, Lofty!

Oh, umm, thanks!

Let's give it a go.

[all playing music]

Splendid!

Who's next for Commander Cottontail's Bouncy Jungle Castle?

A-ha! I spy three intrepid explorers!

Yes, I mean you! On you get!

No instruments, I'm afraid!

I don't think this one works anyway.

-Watch this! Woo! -Wee!

Bouncing on the Bouncy castle

Bouncy castle, Bouncy castle

Um... what rhymes with "Bouncy Castle"?

Erm... Not sure.

What do you think, Lofty?

Where's Lofty?

Oh, bad luck! You nearly had it that time!

Lofty, what are you doing?

I'm trying to hook-that-duck. The top prize is a bit more my style.

Nice trumpet!

But we haven't got time, Lofty. We still need to write a song!

[Leonard on loudspeaker] Next on stage, ladies and gentlemen...

A brand-new band.

I hear they've been working hard on a new song all day!

Ooh, I wonder who it is.

He means us, Lofty!

We're the band! We'd better go! Come on!

Live, from the main stage, the replacement band

for Dave And The Dodgers!

What will we do without a song to sing?

This is a disaster.

Ehm... what's your name?

Where's Lofty?

Oh, good name! Where's Lofty!

[crowd cheering]

Ooh. We'll have to start without Lofty.

But what are we going to sing?

Oh, what did Dave say?

We should sing about what we know.

But... what do we know?

Eh...

We know that Lofty keeps going missing!

-Huh? -Follow me!

[crowd cheering]

[upbeat music]

Yes, he should be here!

But he's nowhere near!

Where's Lofty?

Yes, he should be here.

But he's nowhere near!

[crowd sings along] Where's Lofty?

Ooh...

We all know his name!

It's such a shame!

-Where's Lofty? -I'm here at last!

There's Lofty!

[Milo, Lofty, Lark] Let's have a blast!

[crowd cheering]

[upbeat trumpet music]

[music stops]

[crowd cheering]

Wow!

I got the van fixed lickety-split.

I made it back just in time to hear your song!

It was just like you said, Dave. "Just sing about what you know!"

What a tune!

-Yes! -Yay!

[giggling]

And how was it, my little music makers!

Oh, Suds, it was brilliant!

We made up a song! At first it was hard...

But then, Milo remembered it's much better

if you just sing about what you know!

When I grow up, I think it would be amazing to be a...

MUSICIAN!
