Hi F&F,
Like many folks I grew up with the aid of the local PBS (Public Broadcasting Service). Programs such as Sesame Street, Zoom, Hodgepodge Lodge and Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood were often playing in the background at home. These programs were a part of the soundtrack of my childhood; my past – I thought; but it looks as if the old soundtrack has been made new and will be making a reappearance; to orchestrate my adulthood. This is all thanks to a recently released Mister Rogers remix by Symphony of Science‘s John D. Boswell. My understanding is that this is the first in a series of PBS icons to be remixed.
Enjoy this new song with Mr. Rogers’ old and timeless message. I also encourage you to revisit some of Mr. Fred Rogers’ original songs on PBSKids.org. Listening with your adult ears and adult experiences – I dare you to get through It’s you I like without a few tears.
Peace,

Not my childhood, my children’s childhood.
Nice to be reminded, nice to see that friendly face and hear that friendly voice again. He died too young. People like Mr. Rogers are desperately needed today in all our neighborhoods.
So true.
