Mister Rogers Neighborhood, Remixed

I thought it was a badly made joke / pastiche by some YouTube enthusiast with access to too many movie making software and Auto-tune. It's a real remix, and done none other by PBS, the parent channel that hosted Mister Roger's Neighborhood in the 60s and 70s (although I didn't realize the show actually ran all the way into the early 2000's!). Garden of Your Mind is a song in a mid-tempo, hip-hop style with an orchestration that recalls some of the nostalgia of the 70s, and it's very poignant. It brought back good memories of a time I won't ever see again when I was living in Corona, Queens, under the protective aegis of my Mom and Dad. Good times. Worth a listen and a view.
