    Loved the songs!

    I liked all of the SCHOOLHOUSE ROCK songs, my favorites were (and still) "Verbs, That's Whats Happening", "Conjuction, Function", and of course "I'm Just A Bill". I recall as a little girl, crying whenever "Figure Eight" would come on, it was such a sad but lovely song. On a cheerier note, I learned the preamble to the consitution from SCHOOLHOUSE ROCK.

    I was in the fourth grade and attending school in North Carolina after moving there from NYC. Anyway, the class had to recite the preamble and even though I had not been there to get the lesson, I was able to stand up in front of the class and recite it perfectly by singing it in my head (WE THE PEOPLE, IN ORDER TO FORM A MORE PERFECT UNION. . . ) and then spaeking it out loud! Everyone thought I was really smart.

    Because of Schoolhouse Rock I still remember the preamble to the Constitution! I know how a bill becomes law! It was a great series, and since I was born in late '63 it spanned my whole childhood. Every now and then I catch myself singing some of the songs. I think my favorites are I'm Just a Bill and the song about the pilgrims. Awesome, educational, entertaining stuff. They should make more.
