Lynne as The Chief and Luna, Noah as Magellan and Bear, Craig Bartlett as Rugrats writer/Hey Arnold! creator/producer of Henson programs/animator of Pee-Wee's Playhouse/husband of Lisa Groening aka the inspiration for The Simpsons' daughter (and the actual sister of The Simpsons' creator, Matt Groening), Mr. Rogers & Pee-Wee Herman & Margaret Hamilton all appearing as Sesame Street guests, Henson being a Peanuts and Oz fan...
Someday you'll find the Rainbow Connection, indeed. XD
Disagree with me if you will, but Snoopy's voice sounds like the voice of the 2002 Prince Adam, and Lucy kinda' sounds like Tasha from The Backyardigans.
Man, where would my life from childhood to high school be without the vocal stylin's of Cam Clarke? Probably about the same, but still he's good, isn't he?
@dd1985: Funny that, BOTH geniuses took their own influence from L. Frank Baum's stance when he created Oz, saying, "To please a child is its greatest award. I hope I succeeded...that the children will like it." Funny all the connections these guys have. Margaret Hamilton (Wicked Witch) appeared on Sesame Street, as did man-child Pee-Wee Herman and The Simpsons (both connected by Craig Bartlett, who also produced for the Henson), Mr. Rogers...and more!
I couldn't agree more with you. Me and my mother make it a tradition to watch It's the great pumpkin charlie brown for Halloween and Charlie Brown Christmas Special for christmas.
This song and "Happiness" (from "You're A Good Man") are very nostalgic, and I admit that they make me sad when I hear them, but thanks for posting them. Really great!
this song has SUCH a powerfull meaning to it. never give up on anything! just because one person dosin't beleive, dosin't mean someone elles doesin't, and thene maybe you'll see what that person see's... and you'll relise that it's worth beleiving!
i am in this play as Lucy and this song gives me a lump in my throat at the end of it! i love it!
"...and maybe even YOU can beleive in you too ^^"
When Jim Henson died, they aired a special on TV. At the end of it, all the Muppets -- from Muppet Show, Sesame Street and Fraggle Rock all came together and sang this song.
I think they also sang it at his memorial service too.
The Muppets also did that song (for the first time, I think) when Bernadette Peters was the guest star in the Muppet Show; she sang it to Robin when he was ready to run away from home.
LoneWolf: They did. It was very touching. RIP Walt Disney (the man behind Mickey Mouse), Jim Henson (the essence of Kermit The Frog), Charles Shultz (the true-to-life Charlie Brown), Mister Rogers, Lynne Thigpen (ACME Crimenet's Cheif from Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego), and a slew of others...we miss you dearly.
@JGCooney: Funny you mention Bear, because Lynne Thigpen (Carmen Sandiego) was on it as Luna as mentioned, the voice of Magellan the dragon (Eureeka's Castle), and Jim Henson's Creature Shop created both Eureeka and Bear. And being a fan of Shulz himself, Henson had requested this song be used for tributes, not even realizing that it would be his own in which the song is best remembered!
Strange how things stick with you. I must have been really little the one time I saw this special and the song stuck with me but I never remembered what it was from. Thanks for posting it. *sniffle*
This is my all time favorite Peanuts special. I love that Snoopy "talks" in this one. I was so happy when this was released on video. Let's hope someday, there's a dvd release as well. ;)
when my high school director retired... a bunch of us alumni joined the current students... and at the end of their show... the lead asked everyone to sit... the music started... and soloists from different grad years came out to sing this song to her.... she was bawling like a baby
this is all well and good, but what if that one person won't believe in you? is that just tough luck or can you skip right to that second person? and what if two people start believing in you at the exact same time?
You have made a very good point. Well said, but i am sure there is someone out there for everyone and if they wont believe in you its your job to make them, anyway i still like the song.
haha no well sometimes ill write 6-11-07 instead of the year i was born but i am not displaying that across the internet l0l sorry but yea i miss the year sometimes its weird yea...
One of my favorites from this musical. it still gives me a warm feeling in my chest, especially since it was also used for the Jim Henson Special after his death.
Oh man, this song. I still well up a little when I hear this song because it has such an encouraging message. Just like the ending song to "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown." I agree with superlee that this needs to have a DVD format soon.
Ah, I remember this. Such a wonderful song. But I don't get why all the kids had to sing with their heads tilted up like that for the entire song. It just looks weird to me. o.O
Thanks for the upload! Again, I think people would buy this if it was released on DVD, so let's hope they release this and "Race For Your Life, Charlie Brown" and "Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown" in a modern format soon.
Unfortunately, I haven't seen a DVD for any of Charlie Brown's videos, except for Lucy Must be Traded, Charlie Brown, which includes two other classics, and the holiday videos, actually, the most popular classics are on DVD. So there are quite a lot of them.
This song is very heartwarming.
