The song in its entirely has been heard on albums, though, as heard here.
Hmmm. Sounds as if they added an electric-guitar part (and the bridge) to the arrangement from Season 28 or so; the other instrumentals and the kids' voices are very similar.

Yep. This version--the full version--was used on albums promoting the show.

That's kids for you. They're projecting their voices so they sound loud. Brashness is all subjective in regards to the listener though, IMO.

They should of just used the opening from the TV show.

Other wise I agree the recording on the SS 1 LP was terrible.
