That's awesome. Le sigh. I fell in love with that song as a four-year old, about two years before it hit Disneyland. Later I could see how it could be grating, but now I can appreciate how malleable it is to so many 60's-era internationlistic arrangement interpretations that I am so glad were restored to Disneyland less than a decade ago. Le sigh, I also fell in love with many other Sherman Brothers songs at at age six, when Mary Poppins was released. I don't think I realized at the time it was the same composers.
But Theo's got me beat by a couple of years, so kudos to his good taste. And eternal thanks to Robert Sherman for his sizeable contributions to my eternal childhood. Please be sure to stop by Canada, France, the UK, Ireland, Holland, Germany, Uganda, Zimbawe, India, China, Japan, Mexico, Brazil, Paraguay, Australia and Hawaii on your way to the afterlife. We will cherish your happy and beautiful music forever.
