Hello Everyone. I would like to thank Leandro M Mendez for posting this. I have lost all of my master tapes. I am the creator and performer of this song. I actually created it in October 1993. It hit the air in late 93 and early 94. There are a lot of great comments posted here about this song. I am very grateful for all of the love. God Bless you all, Aaron Whigham

For real? You pretty much defined a significant portion of my childhood (and for several others too, at least) with this thing. Love is the least we can give.

Thanks for responding Aaron! I grew up being an avid viewer of early CN (beginning in 1993-1994ish), and this promo is still one of the most memorable (and catchy) of that era. Perfectly encapsulates Cartoon Network's early selection of programming. I've been wondering who the artist behind this was for the better part of the last 20+ years! How did you come upon being contracted to make this song, and what are you up to nowadays?

I cut the cord ages ago, but I still have fond memories of early 90's Cartoon Network. When it just seemed new and different and no one knew how long it would last. Much like early 80's MTV when you think about it. I used to love the bumpers between shows and the self mocking ads about itself.
