you tangle my emotions

Jun 30, 2010 23:56

I mentioned in the 30 days of TV meme that The Magic Garden was my favorite childhood show, and in the interests of nostalgia, when I got home from work tonight, I looked up some of the songs from it, like the Story Box theme and the closing theme. Should it scare me that I still remember all the words ( Read more... )

tv: miscellaneous, we make our own fun, memes: fannish, fanmixes, memes: music, youtube, i am okay with that!

WHEN IT'S TIME TO CHANGE
YOU'VE GOT TO REARRANGE

*sings*

Oh, man. The Bradys, man. GOOD TIMES.

Also I may have teared up to that closing song. No lie.

It just made me really happy to sing along with... all of them.

Paula, Carole, and Sherlock! Oh, my childhood. That was my favorite show when I was very young.

We didn't have cable. We had three major networks, three local stations (on which most of those reruns ran in syndication), and channel 13 (i.e., PBS). Things were different then.

we had a few more channels, mostly because of having access to both the san francisco and san jose versions of everything. i have come to the conclusion that i am the only person in my age cohort who used to fake sick so i could stay home and watch voyage of the mimi.

Original Cindy: American Dreamgirl by Joydrop
Hey Mr. Music
My name's not honey
And don't call me dear
My eyes are up here

Alec: Flesh Mechanic by Placebo
He tries to impress her, mentally undress her
it takes more to possess her
but in his pocket lies a hole
he's got a thousand talents
charisma by the bagful
aristocratic parents
a rebel with a heart of gold

Oh my, you just described my childhood to a "T" - we did the same exact thing watched TV with our schoolbooks open on our laps until our mom came home. Also watched Abbott & Costello on channel 11 on Sundays! Although, the only thing I might add was that we watched Batman weekdays, too - "ZOOM! ZAP! POW!" - too funny!! And, thanks for putting those stupid songs in my head, they'll be there for awhile now!

Batman! Yes! And the George Reeves Superman when it was on, which is what got us banned from watching TV before dinner in the first place.
