It’s time for “The Tra La La Song (One Banana, Two Banana),” as covered by Liz Phair with Material Issue, off of the 1995 Saturday Morning Cartoons’ Greatest Hits compilation.
I’m a big fan of that album, even when I wasn’t a big fan of the shows the theme songs came from. (I don’t think I had even heard of The Banana Splits Adventure Hour before this.) And this is a wonderfully silly and fun song to kick it off with.
You should check out the show, which they still show on Boomerang. It’s fun, kind of a “Laugh-In” for kids. Besides, it’s the only way you’ll find out what happens next on Danger Island: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ql7dIIItdo
