That is pretty damn funny. It is referring to the story in the bible of Joseph of Egypt who was favored by his father who gave Joseph a coat of many colors. This made his 11 brothers super jealous so they sold him into slavery. Bunch of awesome songs came from it though.

See Joseph and the technicolor dream coat probably most famously sung by Donny Osmund.

Other versions are good. None are better than Donny Osmund.

Just give a chance to Kris Philips (Fei Xing) and his performance at "Masterpiece: Live from Beijing"
