How many people remember “Schoolhouse Rock”? As a kid I remember all the songs (helped me out in school – I’d sing them to myself if I wasn’t sure about multiplication tables or history). So we thought you’d appreciate this…the guys behind songs like ‘conjunction junction” doing it LIVE on a TV show in Los Angeles back in the 1990’s…enjoy.
And now I’ve got Schoolhouse Rock kicking around in my head:
Five…ten…fifteen…twenty
And of course the original “Conjuction Junction”
Someone took the time generate a complete listing of every Schoolhouse Rock – check this out!
Ranker even did a list of the top songs
