Enduring childhood melody





Memory Served: Sometime between 1975 and 1982, Makati City

You gotta admit, that is one catchy tune, and one of the best for me as a kid who grew up with Sesame Street (initially in black-and-white). This musical segment, "It's a Rainy Day" has a staying power in my memory; even when I'm already forty plus years away from the time I first saw and heard it, every time I look out the window in view of rain, the first lines "it's a rainy day, it's a rainy day" comes to mind almost always immediately.

Of course, got trained in school to recite the rhyme "Rain, Rain, Go Away," with the entire class in unison... but in my private thoughts, the melody of this Sesame Street segment.
