Populated by singing (and barely dressed) Mermaids, a funky hepcat Octopus and whiskey-drinking Skeleton Pirates, the underwater kingdom is the grooviest scene this side of YELLOW SUBMARINE, with helpings of Dr. Seuss, Sid \u0026amp; Marty Krofft and Harry Nilsson’s THE POINT thrown in.  (Kids’ entertainment in the early 1970s was truly outtasite!)  In addition to the candy-colored, kaleidoscopic visuals, the film is famed for its incredibly addictive soundtrack featuring Jazz heavyweights of Copenhagen circa 1970, with vocals sung by the cream of Danish 60s Pop and Rock including Peter Belli, Otto Brandenburg, Poul Dissing and Trille on tracks like “Octopussong\/ Blækspruttesangen\\\" and \\\"seahorsesong\/ Søhestesangen\\\".
