I first heard Heywood Banks‘ little tune Toast in the car a long, long time ago while driving around Indianapolis with Jon. Heywood Banks appears on their local Bob and Tom show, and when I heard this the first time, I couldn’t stop laughing. Heywood Banks is a pretty witty lyricist, and the french verse is reason enough to love this song. So, I was more than tickled to find it being played on Kids Place Live. I’m not sure it’s technically a kid song, but the words are accessible for young ears. And the little ones LOVE a good reason to scream along with a song.
And now for the results:
MR B: Yeah TOAST!!!
MISS P: Agreed…YEAH TOOOOOAST!

It’s great when you hear old songs you had forgotten about or others have and then one day out of the blue, there it is again. We seem to be a society that recycles alot and we just don’t know it! I am a new follower of your blog thru GFC and Facebook. I would love a follow back when you get the chance. Thanks so much for your help and have a great day!

Hi Mary – thanks for stopping by! My kids are now really in to songs like Ghostbusters now too, which is fun to see come around again. Following you back too!
I swear I heard this on the Muppet show or Sesame Street once.
Alissa – I don’t know if it’s been on a TV show, but the song has been around for a long time. It DOES seem like something a Muppet should be singing! Perhaps Animal?
