I still cry when I watch this. Much sadder than the Sesame street song 'Mom'. Reminds me more of lonliness and make me worry a lot about my friends and family. Oh, how I wish I was back in Seoul with my parents and siblings, enjoying the food and talk we had....[cries]
@brightbite sounds like you're not the only one! childhood is a very lonely time, especially back in this time when there was no internet, no facebook, and you had to actually have friends/sibs with you to be social. i would go back in a second though.
@brightbite...Count me in as a member of this club !!! I was never a popular boy/teen while growing up. As sad as the "retro" things I grew up with (old songs, movies, TV shows, toys, board games, etc.) make me feel...I love revisiting them. Long live the '70's and early '80's !!!
The only difference between the remake and the original is that the original was set to footage of orangutans in a zoo. It can be found here: watch?v=nOxe8u8Y9R8
I admit to being biased because I saw the snow leopards first too, but I honestly think the snow leopards and their gray, wintery setting fits the tone and sound of the music better than the orangutans did.

@onlyyesterdaynow I feel your pain. It always made me cry too, and does to this day, because I had zero friends growing up.

I have seen both versions but I think the snow leopard version is cuter.

Being the crazy cat person I am, I like this version better than the original. Then again, I saw this version before I saw the original.
