"Apples and Bananas" or "Oopples and Boo-noo-noos"[1] is a traditional[2] North American children's song that plays with the vowels of words. The first verse usually begins unaltered:

I like to eat, eat, eat apples and bananas.

I like to eat, eat, eat apples and bananas.

The following verses replace most or all vowels with one given vowel sound, usually each of the long vowels sounds of ⟨a⟩ ({{IPA|/eɪ/}}), ⟨e⟩ ({{IPA|/iː/}}), ⟨i⟩ ({{IPA|/aɪ/}}), ⟨o⟩ ({{IPA|/oʊ/}}), and ⟨u⟩ ({{IPA|/uː/}}), although potentially any English vowel can be used. For example:

{{col-begin}}{{col-break}}

Ay lake tay ate, ate, ate ayples aind baynaynays.

Ay lake tay ate, ate, ate ayples aind baynaynays.

{{col-break}}
{{IPA|/eɪ leɪk teɪ eɪt eɪt eɪt ˈeɪpəlz eɪnd beɪˈneɪneɪz/}}{{IPA|/eɪ leɪk teɪ eɪt eɪt eɪt ˈeɪpəlz eɪnd beɪˈneɪneɪz/}}
{{col-end}}

Raffi, a Canadian musician, released a version of the song on his album One Light, One Sun (1985). Raffi's version only changed the stressed vowels; that is, the vowels in "eat", "apples", and the last 2 syllables of "bananas". The song was described as one of several "old favorites" by the Ottawa Citizen in 1984.[3] The song was also sung on three early episodes of the children's television program Barney & Friends, as well as on Rock with Barney, the final video in the predecessor series Barney & the Backyard Gang. As with Raffi, Barney's version also only changed the stresses vowels. The Wiggles did sing their version on their album released in 2014.
