Let's celebrate National Hot Dog Day!  

"Hot Diggity (Dog Ziggity Boom)" was a hit song for Perry Como in 1956.

The nonsense phrase of the song's title, repeated throughout the song, is used as counterpoint to the lines it precedes in the lyrics, as in the following excerpt:

"Hot diggity, dog ziggity, boom
What you do to me,
When you're holding me tight."

At the end of the song, Como exclaimed "HOT DOG!!!!" before the last two chords. The phrase "hot diggity dog!" dates to at least 1928, when Al Jolson was recorded saying "Hot diggity dog! Hot kitty! Hot pussycat! Didn't I tell you you'd love it?" after a performance of the tune "There's a Rainbow 'Round My Shoulder".
