    In Philadelphia, the only one associated with that song is the beloved, late, great Hall of Fame voice of the Phillies, Harry Kalas, who made “High Hopes” his own anthem.
    You may know him as the voice of NFL Films. See him here:

    (By the way, my screen name honors Kalas’ best friend, Richie Ashburn)

    “High Hopes”, a song made popular by Frank Sinatra, was first instroduced in the 1959 comedy, “A Hole In The Head", and was the standard for JFK’ presidential campaign.

    The joke is in the lyrics that precede the chorus we see:

    Just what makes that little old ant
    Think he’ll move that rubber tree plant
    Anyone knows an ant, can’t
    Move a rubber tree plant

    The cartoon does not make sense if you do not know these lyrics.

    @TexTech

    Thank you. That does help explain why this has been made an ant gag.

    As for karoake jokes in general, I would have to agree that they are getting to be rather overdone!
