Lou Monte, born Louis Scaglione on (April 2, 1917 – June 12, 1989), was an … Read Full Bio ↴Lou Monte, born Louis Scaglione on (April 2, 1917 – June 12, 1989), was an Italian-American singer best known for a number of best-selling, Italian-themed novelty records which he recorded for both RCA Records and Reprise Records in the late 1950s and early 1960s.

Monte's first big hit came in 1954, with the release of his version of "Darktown Strutters' Ball." In 1962, Monte would release his first million-seller, "Pepino, the Italian Mouse." Sung in a pastiche of both Neapolitan and English, "Pepino" tells the humorous tale of a mischievous mouse who lives within the walls of a man's kitchen and who comes out at night to eat cheese, drink wine, frighten Lou's girlfriend when she comes over and befriends the cat, sent out to catch him.

The "flip side" of the single featured another Italian-American hybrid novelty song called "What Did Washington Say (When He Crossed The Delaware?)." The song presumes that George Washington was cold, tired, hungry and without a change of underwear on his famous trip. At one point in the song, "Washington" complains that the pizzas his wife Martha baked were as "cold as ice." His solution? "Sell them to the Indians for only half the price." He then asks his boatsmen to row faster because "tonight I'm posing for my picture on the dollar bill."

Monte's other famous novelty records include 'Dominick the Donkey', a holiday staple in many Italian-American households and "Pasquale, the Italian Pussycat," the sequel to "Pepino."

After his death his son continued to sing his songs in concert for some time.

He contributed to the founding of the Lou Monte, Jr. leukemia laboratory at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey in memory of his son who died of the disease at age 21.

This song is appreciated by all children of Italian immigrants throughout the 🌎 These children are an exclusive group of people who were raised by Italian parents and grandparents. I have cousins in Italy that do not understand this song nor our culture. 😉
As children of Italian immigrants, we have had the privilege of being raised Italian in a foreign land. I am 100% American but with Italian soul. I have much in common with the children of Italians that immigrated to Australia, Venezuela, Argentina, and many other nations throughout the world. We are a lucky bunch. Buon Natale a tutti 🎄

My dad, grandfather, and son are all named Dominick (with a ck). My grandma was named Josephine. My grandparents, Dominick and Josephine, were in the same part of Brooklyn as Lou Monte at the time of this recording. Also, my great grandmother would say she liked one of the dogs she owned because “he understands Italian.”

cynthia weibel

My mother s name was Josephine. Her mother s name was Josephine. My grand father's mom, was named Josephine. My mom's first cousin, her name was Josephine. My mom's cousin s granddaughter, who died at almost age 4, from food allergies and an allergiic shot reaction, her name was Jo Anna. My paternal grandmother, who was not Italian at all, her first name was Edna. And her middle name was Johanna. So boy, does this name surely get around!!!!!!!

I remember I was 8 years old and with my Dad on the way to a boy scouts retreat with a bunch of other kids, it was a long drive. Anyha, this song came on and my nascent 8 year old self couldn't get enough of it. My father was so sweet he literally played it as many times as I wanted, must've listened to it 50 times. Still have no rhyme or reason as to why I liked it so much, but I hold this song as a memory that is gentle on my mind forever. Thanks Dad.
