I was at one of his live concerts as a child. My mom yelled "encore!" at the end and I was convinced she alone got Raffi to come back out and sing another song. It was magic.
yeah the math aint adding up there. was it an older song that Raffi brought into the mainstream? not attacking you or anything, just genuinely curious now.
I remember going to see Raffi in concert as a kid... I loved it. He's actually still touring and doing shows... That seems crazy to me... That's a long time and a lot of childrens' songs for an adult to play and not lose their mind
If this song doesn’t randomly pop up in your head from time to time, U had no childhood 😤 i remember singing this in elementary school all the time, good times man
This song was my childhood! 31 now and every time I asked someone what the name of this song was, I would only really remember the chorus, but they wouldn't know what I was talking about. Can't get enough of this song!
I was already a teenager when he became big with the kids. But I have 3 younger sisters who loved him and his music especially when his specials were on cable tv! So, I got to know the songs too. lol
BRAVO RAFFI ! THE CHILDREN ARE VERY, VERY, VERY HAPPY WITH YOU ! GOD BLESS YOU ! YOU LOVE THE CHILDREN ENDLESS ! THE CHILDREN LOVE YOU ENDLESS, TOO ! THIS IS FANTASTIC ! BRAVO ! ALL WE LOVE THE CHILDREN ENDLESS ! THE CHILDREN IN ALL WORLD ARE WONDERFUL ! GOD BLESS THE CHILDREN ! WITH A LOT OF LOVE AND LIGHT Mrs N.Mirkova from Sofia - Bulgaria
I am genuinely convinced raffi is one of the most talented music artists in the last 50 years, amazing nostalgic verses, catchiest and most creative choruses you'll hear, I love this man thank you raffi for making everybody heres childhoods!!
We took the kids to a Raffi concert 40 years ago. They still remember it. Their kids are bigger now than they were then. I used to sub with a kindergarten class waynback. I always brought my video of Raffi’s cncert for children.
When I was little I had a CD I'd listen to everyday in my room. I had forgotten all about it until I ran across one of these videos. As it turns out, most of the songs were sung by him!
I love this song I’m 10 but in kindergarten there was 3 classes going to sing this at the assembly and we all sang it and it gives me so many memories of my old teacher
20 or so years ago, we would sing this on the bus, going on field trips ♥️ im singing at the top of my lungs. I LOVE this song and have been teaching my son. He didnt learn it in school 😔 or SKUNK IN THE BARNYARD, PEEYOU, SOMEBODY ATE IT, THATS YOU!
Anguss1313 This is my most favorite simple song too. I actually increase my chances of winning loads of tickets (by seventy-five percent) in dozens of arcades.
Came here after reading a Rediit thread. I'm pretty sure I had a cassette tape of this and some others as a kid. I was born in '95, but CDs weren't really a thing in my house until about 2005.
I miss those days. Parents were so interactive with their kids. Look at all those parents and kids. Now parents are just too busy to play with their kids.
I’m pretty sure if you played any of his songs in a room full of early-mid 30-somethings we’d all channel drunk 20-year-old freshmen singing Part of Your World.
I saw a comment someone said they’re 28 & was singing along. That comment was from 4yrs ago. It’s 2023, I’m 25 & I just randomly wanted to hear this song. I haven’t heard it in 20yrs. Life is wild. If you’re reading this years from now, tag me in your comment.
I remember singing this song in music class in elementary school but had such a tough time figuring out what it was. All i could remember was watermelons

The guy that probably has the most fun and rewarding job ever. All the smiles he put on kids faces over the years
"Did you ever see a COW with a green eyeBROW" My Dad sang it to me when I was little..I'm nearly 80 now and still love it. Thanks Raffi
yeah the math aint adding up there. was it an older song that Raffi brought into the mainstream? not attacking you or anything, just genuinely curious now.
I never grew up with Raffi, but stumbled upon this song because my son requested this song. Honestly, so good, we listen to it on repeat.
This man is a national treasure. He brought joy to millions of kids and that's priceles
I remember going to see Raffi in concert as a kid... I loved it. He's actually still touring and doing shows... That seems crazy to me... That's a long time and a lot of childrens' songs for an adult to play and not lose their mind
what makes you think he hasn't lost his mind??
Nlhipi
Blippi
Even today?😢
Wow Raffis concert was the best I could ever seen ❤😊
Was feeling down today… cooking some dinner, and thought that maybe a childhood song could bring me up. Thanks Raffi.
When your 44 and still singing songs with Raffi and your adult kids look at you twisted!
This is ALL me ❤😂🎉
Just took my senior pictures today...
Needed to go back and watch this.
"Have you ever had a time when you couldn't make it rhyme?"
That line was such lyrical genius
This man is a legend. Generations remember and will remember his songs!
It’s funny you use that word, legend. But if you’d have asked my daughters in 1991 if he was or not, they would’ve agreed!
Beautiful day today
Yes
No
Maybe
When you're 28 and find yourself singling along with Raffi
I’m 27 and singing Raffi in front of my fiancé lol
@@sarahbellum380 yhes
Are you kitting me
I have a working theory that Raffi brainwashed all of us as children to return to him in our late-20s.
CanadianWarMachine I’m 13 and I grew up with him
I haven’t heard this in 30 years and I remember every damn word
My heart melted when I heard the children sing along at the beginning, this was so sweet💚
Wore out my Raffi cassette as a kid. Now I play these for my kids, they love the music and dancing kids
33 years young punk kid and still come back to good ol' Raffi to heal my soul😊
This man was my childhood, teenage years, and to this day remains one of my favorite song singers
I grew up listening to him
Same
I did too
Same My voice sounds just like him when I sing his songs
Same here. He's great.
Same 😭 he’s my childhood
Raffi you magnificent bastard…
Hey keep it wholesome
Confused Boy And he did

It constantly pops into my head. I’m 34 now.
Me at 34, thinking of this song, thought up a short film adaptation of this song, I would be thrilled to make it one of these days.
It brings tears of joy! So many happy memories of my daughters childhood. 🥰
20 some odd years later, this still makes my heart feel good.
This song was my childhood! 31 now and every time I asked someone what the name of this song was, I would only really remember the chorus, but they wouldn't know what I was talking about. Can't get enough of this song!
Would always listen to this guy when I was younger:)
Raffi is Love, Raffi is Life.

Born in 1991 and this song still gets stuck in my head every 2 or 3 months
Been singing this to my sons for the last couple of years. Heard it when I was 5-ish about 33 years ago. Classic.
This man was my childhood!

I'm an 84 baby and I remember singing this song in school. And now me and my family sing it on road trips ❤🙌
i am 85 baby
I learned this song through a cool/rocker substitute teacher my class had (in elementary over 20 yrs ago).That whole week we learned so many songs.
When I was little I had a CD I'd listen to everyday in my room. I had forgotten all about it until I ran across one of these videos. As it turns out, most of the songs were sung by him!
34 years old and still love my Raffi!!!
The king of punk rock.
Another childhood favorite of mine. So much nostalgia.
Man, this and "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom" bring me so much nostalgia...
My children are 15 - born yesterday and will all grow up with Raffi in their life.
Thank you for introducing me to Nelson Mandela.
My favourite version! Our Amaru loves it so much! Thanks Raffi for sharing the love in your heart.
My sister was the one who first taught me this song after she learned it at elementary school. Fondest memories
My daughter loves this song🥰 I love singing along 38!!!
I love this song I’m 10 but in kindergarten there was 3 classes going to sing this at the assembly and we all sang it and it gives me so many memories of my old teacher
Same man I’m 11 but I sang this in kindergarten And at camp fires

I loved Raffi now my kids do too
When i was a toddler in the early 90s, i named a stuffed giraffe of mine "Raffi" because I loved Raffi so much
1:33 that kid is having the time of his life right now.
I’m 19 now and this song came to my mind from my childhood :) ❤️
I seen raffi in concert in 1994 at age 3
I never heard this song until I played it on piano
Really digging the folk influence.
Man's a national treasure ❤
there's no end to this song
This song was my childhood honestly
My kids grandkids and I love Rafi
I loved this song as a child
I remember driving on road trips to this song.
20 or so years ago, we would sing this on the bus, going on field trips ♥️ im singing at the top of my lungs. I LOVE this song and have been teaching my son. He didnt learn it in school 😔 or SKUNK IN THE BARNYARD, PEEYOU, SOMEBODY ATE IT, THATS YOU!
Such nostalgia
1:33 girl in the audience low-key trying to start a circle pit at a Raffi concert.
When you are 45 and thanking God you found Raffi for the first time to help you entertain your little one. We had Sharon, Lois and Brahm up in Canada!
can you imagine a mosh pit at a raffi concert

I remember this song!!!
I love the way you can sing along to baby Beluga
this takes me back to my childhood and I'm now 17 But woooooooo YEAH I'm lovin' it bruh. I'm also a female behind that.
Raffi is a legend
my little cousin absoulutly loves this song, thanks :)
Came here after reading a Rediit thread. I'm pretty sure I had a cassette tape of this and some others as a kid. I was born in '95, but CDs weren't really a thing in my house until about 2005.
I love all these songs interpreted by Raffi. I am only a kid
A 35 year old kid.
I miss those days. Parents were so interactive with their kids. Look at all those parents and kids. Now parents are just too busy to play with their kids.

Hi
Fond, fond memories.
"Did you ever see a Goose kissing a Moose?" Golden
32 and this song is still a hitter.
Anytime I need a bit of a mood pick me up, I listen to a Raffi song. I'm almost 50. LOL
I love that song
I saw a comment someone said they’re 28 & was singing along. That comment was from 4yrs ago.
It’s 2023, I’m 25 & I just randomly wanted to hear this song. I haven’t heard it in 20yrs. Life is wild. If you’re reading this years from now, tag me in your comment.
Also 25 and just thought of him for the first time in probably 20 years!
I remember my father had a Raffi cassette he would play in the car
Rafi is just awesome 😀
Me gusta mucho la canción de Raffi DOWN BY THE BAY
He is beautiful
This was my favorite song in preschool:)
I’m in this video when I was 7
It's an honor that my name is Raffi! :D
He sounds like Jim Morrison!
Raffi is teaching my kids now 🥰
I remember singing this song in music class in elementary school but had such a tough time figuring out what it was. All i could remember was watermelons
OG Banger! Bars for days!
Now what would a kid be doing at 1:33? Running around in a circle, I suppose.
Daniel Celano XDDDDDDDDDDD
Circle pit
Spun out wook foundling
No: yes.
I like his songs
Certified hood classic 💯
I love this song
