Song Of The Week



'The Rainbow Connection'


Kermit the Frog (1979)

Listen~


'Have you been half asleep
and have you heard voices?
I've heard them calling my name.
Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors?
The voice might be one and the same.'

:) The Muppet Movie is one of C's favourite movies at the moment. (Except for the bar scene...). Got to love Rainbow Connection which stands in stark contrast to "I hope that something better comes along" by Kermit and Ralph the Dog. That is one song that makes me laugh and shake my head at the same time. Not exactly the values I want instilled in C and J!

I haven't seen the movie since I was kid, I'd like to watch it again. I find the song so moving, it nearly brings a tear to my eye, seeing little Kermit sitting on that log. I like the lyrics too.

We have a version by the Carpenters, who covered Kermit!
