The Tra La La Song (One Banana, Two Banana)

"The Tra La La Song (One Banana, Two Banana)" is a 1968 pop song, which was the theme song for the children's television program "The Banana Splits Adventure Hour". Originally released by Decca Records on the album titled "We're the Banana Splits", the single release peaked at #96 on the "Billboard" Hot 100 on February 8, 1969. The writing of the song is credited to Mark Barkan and Ritchie Adams, who were the show's music directors. However, there are claims that the theme was written by jingle writer N. B. Winkless Jr. of the Leo Burnett Agency, but was credited to Adams and Barkan for contractual reasons. The song is based on the melody of "Shortnin' Bread".
In 1995, Hollywood Library released the 1,000-copy limited-edition CD reissue "We're the Banana Splits/Here Come the Beagles" which, in addition to the original album version, includes an alternate version on the song.
