I remember seeing this, back when I was a kid in the 80's. I liked it, but always found it to be a LITTLE scary, but now.....I think it's just disturbing, yet, at the same time, so fascinating! Over the years, I'd forgotten all about it, until I unexpectedly came across it on YouTube the other day. Nonetheless, it's still a classic, and a cherished childhood memory of mine. Can't remember if it aired on CBC, along with other classics, such as Black Fly and Log Driver's Waltz. ( 2 of my MOST FAVORITE shorts) I remember hearing other versions of the song, over the years, some not as dark and morbid as this one, though. No matter how creepy it was, or how disturbed I was, it's STILL a wonderful childhood memory. : )
