I can still name all of Santa’s reindeers because of a song I learned in grade school and most of the Constitution from School House Rock. What do you still know because of a song?

I know a few things about James K. Polk, our eleventh president, thanks to They Might Be Giants. Among them:
He built an independent treasury
He sought no second term
His nickname was Young Hickory, Napolean of the Stump
He ran against James Buchanan, Martin Van Buren and Louis Cass in 1844
He made the English sell the Oregon Territory (which John initially pronounced incorrectly, but now sings it right in concert)
Anyway . . .

Interjections! Show excitement or emotion!
I actually watched a majority of the School House Rock videos for grammar, science, and history every year for 30 years. So many more out there than just the grammar and history ones that are the most popular.

YES! Fifty nifty United States. Also that "the sun is mass of incandescent gas, a gigantic nuclear furnace where hydrogen is built into helium at a temperature of millions of degrees" and other sun facts. |

State capitals and presidents in order thanks to animaniacs Who Bernie Getts is - We Didn't Start the Fire Bernie Goetz. I learned a lot from that song... once I learned what the lyrics actually were.  (Like it's BEGIN, the former Israeli prime minister, not "bacon.") My favorite Animaniacs song is the countries of the world one. |

I know how to spell the name Mickey correctly (not Micky) from the Mickey Mouse club song, M-I-C-K-E-Y, etc.
I had an account with this lady B***h named Mickey and I know that if I ever spelled her name wrong that she would get me kicked off the account. Yes, she was a raving B***h with a capital B.

How to spell Mississippi. It's the first place we moved to when we first came to the USA from Germany so my father could attend his last two years at Mississippi State on the GI bill and it's where I went to 1st grade and learned to speak English. We had a song that year or the next that taught us how to spell Mississippi. I still sing that song (not the whole thing of course, just the part where you spell out the word Missisippi) when I go to spell that word.
After my father's two years at that college we moved to Maryland and we've been in the Maryland/Virginia area ever since.

A good half of the presidents of the United States. I would have learned all of them, but I moved halfway through the school year, so I didn’t have a chance to memorize that whole song. 😂
How to always spell bananas.

The only song that comes to mind is the ABC's song.  two years at Mississippi State on the GI bill and it's where I went to 1st grade and learned to speak English. That's where I spent the first 2.5 years of my marriage! I already knew how to spell Mississippi before I got there though!  |
