Today we have a song originally written by Paul Williams and Ken Ascher. Performed by Kermit the Frog as the opening for the 1979 film The Muppet Movie, ‘The Rainbow Connection’. (Nominated for best original song, but tragically, didn’t win)
First up is a beautiful solo guitar version by Frank Watkinson
Gwen Stefani is next with her cover, found on the 2015 album We Love Disney
Last, let’s listen to a more upbeat version by Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. You can find this cover on their album Are A Drag or Rake It In: The Greatestest Hits
