Ah, lovely
I may be teaching my collective grandmothers to suck eggs here, but I recently came across this little gem - it's the theme from kids TV programme 'Rainbow' done in the style of Nick Drake.

The parody is so clearly affectionate, and the observations both in the music and the animation are spot on. Enjoy.

(for those not familiar with the original, this is it....)

	Why that lad didn't take the musical world by storm when he was alive is beyond me... Though I must add until you posted this I'd actually forgotten how the original version went... I could only remember the rude playground version. Edited at 2008-04-26 05:16 pm UTC (Reply to this)(Thread)

	I must've had a very innocent childhood, 'cos I didn't know there was a rude playground version. The full version has a really freaky trippy mid section that was cut for pretty obvious reasons. I'll have to see if I can find it again. (Reply to this)(Parent)
