the best songs ever

[Eric the Green]

Now this is a "children's song" that is truly outstanding, from 1944. I like this version:

Bing Crosby's version was the original hit from 1944:

But I suppose Rudolph is more politically correct for today than this song. Comment on the Crosby video:

This song is very fishist, monkeyist and mulist....
The animals did not appreciate this song very much.

I do like one modern Christmas children's song very much, and a modern version by an artist that you all know that I know and love. But the original is from 1934, so I'll get to it later. But a hint, it reminds me of this one in its plea for good behavior.

I guess this one from 1944 fits in with my picks, though, since I also like "Yakety Yak" (Don't talk back) by the Coasters (1958)
