Though I kind of half-resented the schoolhouse rock segments. Yes their songs are fun and catchy, however, I looked forward to Saturday mornings.my day off from school (I HATED school with a passion) and watching my favorite cartoons only to be interrupted with something.EDUCATIONAL. -

I thought they were great. Fun and painless education mixed in with the mindless cartoons.
I saw a fun stage version of Schoolhouse Rock a few years ago. Live actors acting out the segments. The songs brought back memories. -

Preamble, because it allowed me to pass some tests in history class over the years.

Figure 8 is two times 4
Figure 4 is halve of 8
If you could skate you would great
If you make a figure 8
And lay the figure on its side, you have-
INFINITY!
Loved that one!
Turn it off man, turn it off! It's sucking my will to live! Oh the humanity!

My favorite was always the Noun song ("You know they're nounsI find it quite interesting, a noun's a person, place, or thing, yeah nouns are a person, place, or thing". It had really nice chirpy melody and loved the bit about putting a nickel in the drug store record machine (!) and the name drops of The Beatles and Chubby Checker (obviously the song was not written by the youngest of songwriters for the mid '70's but I can still see that little girl grooving to the jukebox in the cartoon after almost 40 years.)
I also love "Interjections" - for Excitement! For Emotions! -

I'm quite late on this one.
Call me weird if you like but,even though I'm a guy,
my overall favorite is the R & B / rock flavored ,
"Sufferin' 'Til Sufferage" about how women won the right to vote in 1920.
It was sung by Lynn Ahrens at her best and her delivery
rivals the vocal abilities of Patti LaBelle or Aretha Franklin.
The music is as good as any pop Top 40 song of that decade for that matter.
