Uncle Walt's Favourite Song


Disney's songs are always meaningful. This touches me.



Robert Sherman recalls:
"On Fridays, after work, [Walt Disney would] often invite us into his office and we'd talk about things that were going on at the Studio. After a while, he'd wander to the north window, look out into the distance and just say, 'Play it.' And Dick would wander over to the piano and play 'Feed the Birds' for him. One time just as Dick was almost finished, under his breath, I heard Walt say, 'Yep. That's what it's all about.'"


He also comments:
"Songs have been written about a myriad of subjects. Feed the Birds is the first song written about the merits of giving charity."


Merry Christmas everyone!
