So Robert wrote the song from Iron Man II? I'm glad he's still writing! :D

When watching the documentary, another thing I learned that I hadn't realized is that the Sherman Brothers were responsible for the music in the cartoon version of "Charlotte's Web". I loved both the book and the movie as a kid and always sung those songs. Now I know why!

There are so many songs that the Sherman Brothers are credited for. Lou Mongello did an interview with Richard Sherman back in 2008 that I will never forget. I have listened to it 3 times and decided tonight after reading this post to listen to it again.

I highly recommend you listen to it. This interview was one of the turning points in my love for Disney. Listening to Richard was like hearing Walt Disney himself speak. He gives the story behind songs like "Feed the Birds", "Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow", "It's a Small World" etc.

There are also some pictures of the Brothers on the web link below.

We are going to try to go see Iron Man tomorrow. Can't wait!

Maybe he's an even better painter than a musician?:)
