"Animal Crackers in My Soup" was a song introduced by Shirley Temple in the 1935 film Curly Top. The lyrics were written by Irving Caesar and Ted Koehler and the music by Ray Henderson,[1][2] sheet music published by Sam Fox Publishing Company.[3][4]
Numerous singles and albums containing the Shirley Temple version of the song exist, including at least one CD with it as title track. Temple's version made the Hit Parade, but did not attain the popularity of her earlier hit, On the Good Ship Lollipop, which was #2 for the year.
It was recorded by Don Bestor and his orchestra (Brunswick 7495)[5] and Mae Questel, voice of Betty Boop and Olive Oyl released a recording of the song in the 1930s.
The song was performed by Elke Sommer on The Muppet Show in 1979. It was also on the album Anne Murray Sings for the Sesame Street Generation.
Another cover version appears on the 2002 album, Maria Muldaur Presents - Animal Crackers In My Soup: Songs Of Shirley Temple[6]
Barbra Streisand performed the first verse of this song in her "Color Me Barbra Medley" for the TV special and album "Color Me Barbra".[7]
The song was also covered by Joanie Bartels on her 1980 Sillytime Magic CD and was also on the video The Rainy Day Adventure.
The song is performed by Sammee Lee Jones (as a Shirley Temple look-alike) in the 1971 movie, "What's the Matter with Helen?"
