Sesame Street

I just looked it up.

Life as a kid in the 70's was great.    

There is even a DVD on Amazon.  

Edit: Crossed with MeShell 

The conjunction song was far too advanced for "Sesame Street." I would swear on my life that it came from "The Electric Company," because I was such an avid fan (more so of that show than "Sesame Street").

I never watched "Schoolhouse Rock," so apparently the lyrics must have been on both shows.

Schoolhouse Rock! is a series of fifty-two educational short films featuring songs about schoolhouse topics, including grammar, science, economics, history, mathematics, and politics. Originally conceived by Thomas G. Yohe in 1972, the shorts were broadcast on the ABC television network between 1973 and 1986.]Schoolhouse Rock! is a series of fifty-two educational short films featuring songs about schoolhouse topics, including grammar, science, economics, history, mathematics, and politics.

"Conjunction Junction" never aired on The Electric Company, which was produced by Children's Television Workshop (now known as Sesame Workshop) and aired exclusively on public television.  Conversely, Schoolhouse Rock was produced by ABC and aired exclusively on ABC affiliates.

The Electric Company did, however, have several songs that were of a similar nature.  Perhaps that's what is causing the confusion.

Perhaps you're right, FunGirl.

Thank you for clarifying
I didn't even remember that EC had those types of songs.  I know I watched it, but that's the one show I don't recall specifics about.

I remember Conjunction Junction! I was trying to explain to DS the other day what a conjunction was and I was wishing he could see it... how much more simple than my rambling explaination!
I seem to remember this being a between shows type thingy, along with beans and rice tonight and the bill from capital hill, which used to really get on my nerves.

Ooh, I just looked up the Electric Company, and Morgan Freeman was the easy reader!! No wonder it seems like he's been around all my life!

Cali, I also did a Google search on "The Electric Company," one link of which listed famous or semi-famous people who had been on the show. Now I remember Morgan Freeman being on it, which I should have anyway, because I'm an avid reader.

Does anyone else have this CD? It's one of my favourites! Blind Melon doing Three is a Magic Number is one of the best things you'll ever hear!

I used to... not sure what happened to it

I love the De La Soul version of the same song!
