    #KennyLoggins #ReturnToPoohCorner
    Lyrics:
    Christopher Robin and I walked along
    Under branches lit up by the moon
    Posing our questions to Owl and Eeyore
    As our days disappeared all too soon
    But I've wandered much further today than I should
    And I can't seem to find my way back to the wood, so
    Help me if you can, I've got to get
    Back to the house at Pooh Corner by one
    You'd be surprised there's so much to be done
    Count all the bees in the hive
    Chase all the clouds from the sky (chase the clouds away)
    Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh
    Winnie the Pooh doesn't know what to do
    Got a hunny jar stuck on his nose
    He came to me asking help and advice
    From here no one knows where he goes
    So I sent him to ask of the Owl if he's there
    How to loosen a jar from the nose of a bear
    Help me if you can, I've got to get
    Back to the house at Pooh Corner by one
    You'd be surprised there's so much to be done
    Count all the bees in the hive
    Chase all the clouds from the sky (chase the clouds away)
    Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh
    It's hard to explain how a few precious things
    Seem to follow throughout all our lives
    After all said and done I was watching my son
    Sleeping there with my bear by his side
    So I tucked him, I kissed him
    And as I was going
    I swear that old bear
    Whispered, boy welcome home
    Believe me if you can I've finally come
    Back to the house at Pooh Corner by one
    What do you know, there's so much to be done
    Count all the bees in the hive
    Chase all the clouds from the sky (chase the clouds away)
    Back to the days of Christopher Robin (back to the days)
    Back to the ways of Christopher Robin (back to the ways)
    Back to the days of Pooh

      I would think that you cry when listening to this song because it brings up so many different emotions. I like to think of tears as what comes out when our emotional cup overflows - happiness, sadness, nostalgia...in this case, it's probably that you are experiencing general nostalgia, plus happiness that you were adopted and being given so much love, and possibly also being reminded of the love you might have been missing prior to being adopted (don't know your experience, just going off of what can sometimes be the case with adoption). That's a lot of emotions, add in that you are now having your own baby, that I assume you are keeping, and all of the emotions that come with that...I'm not remotely surprised that the song brings tears to your eyes.

And it was her favorite song and sang at age 3 1/2. Thank you Kenny for giving such joy to a child battling brain cancer.

    ( am a long-time fan ,since 1972,I was a Senior in High School)...and many years later ...( in my 30's)...I would be playing this Song for my 2 daughters.... I still get teary eyed ... remembering those fleeting days of when they were small and now are Grown women in thier mid/ late 30's themselves...... it seems as only a few Years ago that we were listening to this, softly singing along .... the Cherished Memories of that are as vivid as the times it occurred....
    I am not sure if you realize how many Hearts, Lives, Minds and Souls you touched with this beautiful Song, written by you at a tender 17 years of Age .....then again... you very well may know.... Infinite Spirit Blessed you with such Talents... in order that you would Bless others .

    What a wonderful song -- I was 12 when it was first released, and 35 when it was re-released as "Return to Pooh Corner" (this version), and I had a 6 year old and a 2 year old by then. This is a magical song, it will stand the test of time. Any parent who listens to it, whether in 1994 when it was re-released, today, or in years to come, will find significant meaning and wonder in its message. (Side note: I inherited my mother's original collection of A.A. Milne books, including "House at Pooh Corner" and "Winnie the Pooh," as well as the poetry books "When We Were Young" and "When We Were Six," from the 1930s. Those were simpler times, but they are still worth reading to your children -- as I do to my grandchildren.)

I've not listened to it in so long, but now as she fights to breathe without a ventilator and has been in the ICU for a week, I'm coming back to it. I've listened at least a dozen times just because it brings me close to her when so much is unknown. What a wholesome, precious song.

    I have seen Kenny Loggins several times, whenever he comes to the Toronto Canada. I was 22 when I fell in love with his music and I still have my Vinyl, Cassettes and CD’s. I always cry listening to this song. He touches your Heart like no other Artist. I saw him just weeks ago, his Final Tour at the age of 75. I had so many memories flooding through that I cried during most of the concert. Each one of his Brilliant songs has a Story to me and my family. Like This Is It, my grandmother was on life support and I had to drive 3 hours to say goodbye to her. I had this song on repeat, hoping that my grandmother would survive. Sadly I said my good bye as her eldest granddaughter and watched as they pulled the plug on her. I will never forget how each song has touched my Heart. Thank you Kenny Loggins for being such a brilliant songwriter and musician. Thank you for all the memories. I wish you the best in your next endeavour. Much Love Donna Marie, Toronto Canada , your Biggest Fan ❤

      Puff the Magic Dragon, came , courtesy of Captain kangaroo along with the inchworm both of those songs would make me cry when I was a little girl and then my mom got the Peter and Mary album that had puff on it, and I still cried when I heard it. The inchworm I didn’t hear anymore after the captain. But then along came the 70s high school in college in the war all that stuff and there was this amazing gentle song Pooh Corner read the stories to my little brother. His Pooh color forms were his favorite things, he’s slept in blanket sleepers
      With Winnie the Pooh on them. And it was such a beautiful song and I played it for him and he like that and rubber ducky and in our house because his name was Scott was Bobby Goldboughs watching Scotty grow. I asked my boyfriend who was going to become my husband but I didn’t know it yet. If you want to give me something for Christmas I’d like to see Kenny Loggins well it took him a little while to get that promise taken care of but I did get to see you and certainly there were several times during that evening that you made me cry. One night when you were in the Chicago area stopped in the bar after the performance and my sister-in-law served you. And she asked you for a favor something she is never allowed to do but she did it for me. She asked you to sign your name for me. She said it has to say to Barbara Jane because that is the way that she’ll know that it really happened, about three days ago I was just talking about it with my homemaker. Said if I could get into that spare room and one of those boxes that has a flowered hop on. It is an autograph of Kenny Loggins their sister-in-law about me almost 40 years ago. Lots of things have happened since those days we’re not married anymore. The children were sang to whether they were sick, over exhausted, who had just had bad dreams. Are now all grown up when is married with two children the other has chosen not to marry. I have never met my granddaughters. I wish that I could say that I had, and I had had the opportunity when they were babies to sing to them just the same way I said to their mother and I don’t think Mr. Owl to be able to figure all of that out. Thank you for a wonderful concert. Almost it is it’s over 40 years ago and the gift of an autograph about 10 years later and for having this on UA-cam so that I just happen to be scrolling tonight and came upon the video. Thank you for bringing back things that when they were good they were very very good. There’s other side of that but we won’t talk about it tonight. Thank you again enjoy a much earned retirement and how many people would still be waiting for you at Pooh Corner.

    When my mom was pregnant with me in 1997, she sang this song almost every day to calm me down whenever I was stirring around too much. Then, when I was born and screaming my head off, while being surrounded by this whole group of doctors, my mom sang this song to me again. And then, according to her, I quieted right down, and every single doctor in that room just fell silent and was completely shocked.
    So, needless to say, this song is truly magical and has played an important part in my childhood. And, to this day, I still love it.

The whole album is beautiful but pooh corner is my favorite. Thank you Kenny for taking me back to that moment when I could finally hold my son Noah, for the first time. I closed my eyes and I remembered him laying against my chest, holding him as he slept and thanking God for my miracle. My husband found this performance and sent it to me. I'm so grateful for this moment. Thank you Kenny for your music that touched so many people.

    In 1984, July 13th, a Friday, I walked into the hospital gift shop and purchased an orange bear. I went back up stairs and waited with my wife for the birth of our first son. That night, "Orange Bear" sat watch over my son in the nursery and was with him every night and day thereafter for the next 22 months....until my second child was born, and my older son brought "Orange Bear" to the hospital and gave him to his little brother on April 17th, 1986. So, for the next three years to the day, "Orange Bear" remained at my younger son's side, until on April 17th, 1989, my daughter was born and "Orange Bear" made another trip to the hospital to protect and accompany my third child home.
    Orange Bear remained sleeping on her bed until February 18th, 2012, when my oldest son became a father. That day, my daughter brought Orange Bear back to the hospital, called into duty again, to meet his new charge, my granddaughter. Orange Bear sleeps with her every night. Recently, my granddaughter told her Daddy that she hopes to have a sister or brother soon....so she can pass on the 34 year old Orange Bear! Now 37 year old, Orange Bear.

    Is it supposed to be a song that can give you goosebumps? But it does give me one and also shed tears in reminiscing of how pure and lovely childhood phase is... a sweet "longing"

    When I was little (baby and toddler and early child) my mom used to sing this to me to help me fall asleep (she also sang me Ryan Long)

    Loggins and Messina were a mainstay for me back in the day. I still put on their CDs from time to time.

    Not only is Kenny a talented singer and prolific writer, he's a great story teller. I saw him on this tour up in Lake Tahoe. I wish I'd kept all of my tour t-shirts!

    I'm quite amazed to see the audience all glued to their seats watching him with great admiration including some kids. This is a good video that shows how great performers amaze the audience in the past without phones and other gadgets! Kenny will always have that special part of every child's heart because of this song including my daughter Yvess.

    House at pooh corner was my lullaby when I was a little kid back in the late 80s early 90s.. this made me cry. My aunt and dad used to sing it to me. My dad passed away over 10 years ago and my aunt has had several strokes now. Hearing this has me feeling happy and sad at the same time. I cant have kids but if I could this would've been my lullaby.

    Was at one of you shows, The Grove of Orange (seen you in person several times. LOVE your live shows!!!) when you told the story of fighting with your Dad about a music "career" and him saying you'd never make any money. You said you wrote this song around that time, and was able to tell him later that this song put your kids through college. You are truly one of the gifted writers and singers.

    I'm probably too old to listen to this song or puff the magic dragon, the message seems to be back to better times in our mind's remembrance of childhood.

    When my son was a little boy I used to play this song for him all the time and he's gone now but before he left there he blessed me with three beautiful grandchildren and I played both versions of the Pooh song to them every time my son heard it I would bring a smile to his face like a memory of days gone by the sun is not with us anymore but this song will always be for my Son and his three beautiful children and who knows maybe someday they'll get married and have children and play a song for them thank you Mr Kenny loggins
