Ah good, now I have a clear winning memory.
The only songs that came to mind were sesame street songs (Capital I,
anyone?), but mentioning Green Tambourine gave some commercial ones.  I
really loved the songs on K-Tel's Goofy Greats.  As a preschooler, I'm
sure I liked Snoopy vs. the Red Baron, but I remember Green Tamourine
eventually being my favorite from that album as late as 5th grade(and
still love the song today).  I put so many miles/years on that record...
