  1. Today’s song is from Herman Lisjak, a clever fox I met in Slovenia. 🦊

    His handwritten tune is framed at the Hermanov brlog Children’s Museum in Celje, so I took a picture of it!

    I’ve always been enchanted by imaginary animals and their songs.

    Do you have a favourite anthropomorphic character from a children’s show with a memorable tune? Let me know, and I'll perform it next time!

  2. Here's one of my wife's favorites with a really catchy melody. Between the two we built quite a large Spotify playlist which made the subscription cost more than worth it for many years.

  3. Can't end the week without posting this annoying, annoying track. Makes you wanna punch yourself in the face, but is somehow also hilarious and never gets old. I am sorry. 😆

  4. Here's one from Ecuador, with a distinctly Andean vibe. I played this a fair number of times as my girls grew.

  5. Going way back down memory lane... As a kid in Chile, I used to watch this TV show character, "Pin Pón". I'm learning now (Wikipedia) that the actor who created him in '68 was exiled in '74, lived in Ecuador (!) where he did a version of the show for a local station, then moved to Cuba, and finally returned to Chile in '90 after democracy was restored. He continued the show in the iteration I'm familiar with.

  6. Another classic kid's song, but with a punk twist.

    Love this version. Short and sweet.

  7. This is from my own childhood.

    A whole bunch animals get together to play a symphony under the ocean. There's lots of instrument noises and fun, but a deaf whale smashes the whole thing.

    Luckily the animals are ready to get back to their music very quickly.

    My mom used to sing this to me, endlessly, whenever I was sick as a child, and I did the same with my girls. Good song.

  11. Here's one from the Little One's mum. Also in Japanese.

    Quite a gentle, sweet song about rain and a little bear in a mountain.
