Here's the original: Three is a Magic Number
That's Brilliant !!
You learn something new every day, Thank you for that, I really enjoyed it.

I bought the whole box set on DVD!
It looks brilliant, sorta funky, like early Sesame Street. Like the 1 to 12 pinball song.

Some of my favorite are:
Interplanet Janet
Conjunction Junction
Interjection!
Gravity
Some of the history ones have great songs, but are probably not so accurate. They are history as it was traditionally taught in schools. I never would have passed Government in school if I hadn't been able to sing the preamble to the Constitution. |

Black Magic Woman - Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac
Got a black magic woman
I got a black magic woman
Yes, I got a black magic woman
Got me so blind I can't see
But she's a black magic woman
And she's tryin' to make a devil out of me

That old black magic that you weave so well

Oh oh it's magic
When I'm with you (Oh-o, it's magic)
Oh oh it's magic, just a little magic (gotta be magic)
You know it's true
I got a hold on you

Magic Carpet Ride - Steppenwolf
Well, you don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me little girl
On a magic carpet ride
You don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me
Fantasy will set you free
Close your eyes girl
Look inside girl
Let the sound take you away

Magic Moments - Perry Como
Magic, moments,
When two hearts are carin’,
Magic, moments,
Memories we’ve been sharin’ . . .
I’ll never forget the moment we kissed,
The night of the hayride,
The way that we hugged to try to keep warm,
While takin' a sleigh ride.
Magic, moments,
Memories we’ve been sharin’,
Magic, moments,
When two hearts are carin’ . .

Real, Real, Real - Jesus Jones (if anyone remembers them)
I think i know what you mean
and although it sounds obscene
I will always do my best to understand
You have so many words
and your voice is always heard
but who can say they really understand?
Real, real, real
Do you feel real?
And if so i'd like to know
How to feel real real
Do you feel real?
And if so i'd like to know
