Here's another one my playlists featuring SONGS that can be associated with CURRENT EVENTS. In this one, I recall a THEME SONG from the CARTOON about Magilla Gorilla. The tune is done in a BIG BAND STYLE accompanied by singers and a full orchestra. It's the kind of TV OPENING that used to be popular in the last century-- and I would say the quality of those musical openings were better than today's. Here are more...Hanna-Barbera Productions - Television Series (1960s) - Part 1 - YouTube The MODERN FORM of the CARTOON is VIDEO-CGI (Computer Generated Imagery). As a modern cartoon, CGI looks real-- unless you look closer. Today's "news" orgs are so confident that most of us DO NOT look closely, that they feature CARTOONS as "news". I have to admit that the quality of these latest cgi cartoons along with the fake news is entertaining. The only thing missing is the THEME SONG-- that's where I thought I would do my part and add to the entertainment.
LYRICS - I could not find chords yet... but here's a site with a TV Fake book that includes this song. I might get that. http://www.ezplaymusic.com/browseproducts/Fake-BookThe-TV-Fake-Book.HTML
I recall the lyrics as "Magilla Gorilla and all of his friends say hello, hello, hello..." but cannot find THOSE lyrics. Apparently that's the closing theme.

An ever living doll in a

Full of charm and appeal.
Handsome, elegant, intelligent, sweet.

A gorilla like Magilla is mighty nice.
