I know I've seen this cartoon. Thinking Tex Avery but I cannot find it. I think she sings it to a wolf in a nightclub.

Dorothy Lamour sang “Personality” in the movie Road to Utopia and rerecorded it years later. I can find the song, recordings by other artists, and plenty of Tex Avery cartoons but no pairing of “Personality” with a cartoon for Avery nor anyone else.

Could be there’s an homage sequence to Avery cartoons using the song—perhaps even in the Road to Utopia movie. But I haven’t found it and will end my supportive search.

...That I can find. I’m just a middling at best web sleuth. Entirely possible what the OP remembers is out there somewhere.

That was hilarious.

There was a lot of creativity back then.

Aww.Thank you for trying. I looked for a long time too but did not find it yet a few years ago Iā€™m pretty sure I did see it.

What I remember is the Lloyd Price version

We had it on a 45 RPM that had two songs on each side. IIRC, the other song on that side was "Till there was you"

Well, it was fun trying! I learned a lot about the song “Personality” and Tex Avery cartoons! šŸ˜€
