    I have told my family that I want this played at my funeral, as it was played at Jim Henson's.
    RIP Mr Belafonte. May your memory be a blessing.

    His muppet show version of this amazing song is the best version I think. First heard it watching the muppet show and absolutely fell in love with it.

    For everyone mentioning the Muppet Show, this episode was reportedly Jim Henson's favorite episode. "After Henson's death in May 1990, Belafonte was asked to perform the song at Henson's memorial service." [Wikipedia]

      Not sure if you're old enough to have experienced this, but Harry Belafonte did this song with the Muppets a long time ago. I saw part of the performance on a "Muppets 30th Anniversary Special" when I was a kid, which was full of amazing music and performers like this. Maybe that's where you first encountered it.
