Highly stimulating, Captain... I am inclined to imagine a lavish party at a movie mogul's spectacular hill-side mansion... Everyone is sipping champagne or double martinis... A mysterious bumbling interloper is saying into the intercom, "--Birdie num-num! Birdie num-num!"



YES.  Or a scene from "Mad Men".   ...Don's wife singing to him in french.

Birdie num-num!  That's brought back some memories!

That model should definitely be getting hazard pay. 
The words "an accident waiting to happen" come to mind.

Gregorian Bossa Nova.  Wonders never cease here on RP.



I like the non-vocal parts. The "Awww AWWW" parts aren't my taste, though.

my guess is it's a later version. The photographic style doesn't look like it's from 1951 either.

It would be indeed! But it appears to be from a 2018 compilation album.

There is a typo in the album title. The song is great though.

Armenian King of Swing -  new artist and genre to me.
Only on RP would I ever hear this piece.

The vocalists are slightly out of tune, or is it me?
