Castaways!
So remember a few weeks ago when I mentioned I was obsessed with The Backyardigans?
I’m still obsessed with The Backyardigans.
BUT I’ve also found a video discussing the “Castaways” song and how much effort was put into making it a bossa nova groove. It is SUPER interesting.
Now I’m going to have that song stuck in my head for days, haha.
Thanks, TikTok
Because everything has been so horrible the past few months, I’ve turned to TikTok as a source of “I don’t wanna deal with life so let me watch short videos instead” coping mechanism.
Don’t make fun of me. I need something.
Anyway, there’s this audio that’s been going around on TikTok called “Into The Thick Of It!” I had no idea where it came from but it sounded intriguing, so I looked it up. Turns out it’s from an episode of a kid’s show called “The Backyardigans.”
The Backyardigans ran from 2004 to 2013, a timeframe that definitely missed my childhood years. So I don’t remember the show, but apparently it’s known for its songs and music. All of its episodes are on YouTube, so I decided to check out a few.
Now I’m addicted, haha. It’s lighthearted and adorable, which is really what I need right now. Also, the music and songs ARE really good. Austin (the kangaroo) has the cutest freaking voice.
So if you need a chill kid’s show for whatever reason, give it a watch!
