I've Got Six
Five: Ready or Not
Three Is a Magic Number
Verb: That's What Happening
Great American Melting Pot
Shot Heard Around the World
The music is what made me love these.
And, yes, I learned the preamble and my times tables due to SHR.
I freely admit it. -

Those back-up singers really made it. It could have been a Top 40 hit. (I don't know who they were, but Zachary Sanders was the lead singer.)
I also like "Sufferin' Until Sufferage" (sung by Essra Mohawk), "Unpack Your Adjectives" (Blossom Dearie), and "Interplanet Janet" (Lynn Ahrens). -

Interjections!, Figure 8, and Electricity.
I actually got to sing the chorus of "Electricity" with Bob Dorough my senior year of high school. He visited my school and did a little outdoors concert. It was alot of fun!! -

"Interjections!" and "The Preamble" (especially since it helped our entire grade school class pass a test. Some kids actually sang softly as they wrote. Actually, that was kind of odd, in retrospect)
"Oh, there he goes off to his room to write that hit song "Alone in my principles."" -

My favorites are Three is a Magic Number, Interjections, Figure 8. I teach 1st grade and during free time, I show the video and my kids really enjoy it. They are learning to sing along and they can almost count by 3's since listening to these songs.

I am old school when it comes to my favorites. anything that came out in the 90's i didn't see until buying the dvd a couple of years ago. even though i really like mr. morten. i wish that could have been out in the 70's. it would have made my list.
- unpack your adjectives
- lolly lolly lolly
- ready or not, here i come
- i'm just a bill
- interjections
- conjunction junction
- nouns: a person place or thing
- shot heard round the world
- no more kings
- three is a magic number
like i said all old school and for anyone that grew up in the 70's, knows that these were the ones that we saw every saturday. i just happened to be up early on saturday a couple of weeks ago and thought i would turn on the tv and check out the cartoons. man what a bummer! ifeel so fortunate to have been a kid in the mid to late 70's and experience what saturday morning cartoons really was.

Dude. INTERPLANET JANET IS MY SEXUAL OBESSESION. There, I said it. lol. That's like the closest you can get to getting high without smoking anything lol. Not to insult anyone. I hate "Lolly, Lolly, Lolly". I'm sorry. I did it as a duet when I did it and I hated it, very annoying to me. Not sure why. I'm currently listening to "Great American Melting Pot" right now. Elbow Room is pretty kewl too.
I know where you live
