This was actually yesterday. But goodness, it makes me smile and feel old at the same time. I think they call that "nostalgia".

And now it will be stuck in my head all day. *grin* I've had worse songs stuck there.

I've had worse ones stuck in my head, too. Every time I hear this one I remember trips to the Magic Kingdom, where it's played incessantly. Irritating as heck, but at least it brings up happy memories! LOL

Exactly! The tune is too catchy and pernicious, but the words are really sweet, and yeah, happy memories!

I'm old enough to remember when it was news at the NYC World's Fair. In fact, I remember Walt Disney telling us all about the "making of" the attraction on the "Wonderful World of Disney" on a Sunday night, and wishing I could see it in person (I was 11 at the time.) Years later when Disney World in Orlando opened, I finally got that wish!

Think about a different song--quick!
