[post_page_title]Mister Rogers’ theme song opening line is different than people recall[/post_page_title]
In the Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood introduction, Fred Rogers, who both created and starred in the show, would sing a short jingle called ‘Won’t you be my neighbor?. Many people recall that it began with the line ‘It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood.’ But this is not what the line was! What is actually said is, ‘It’s a beautiful day in this neighborhood’. Although only a very slight difference, it simply does not sound right to those who really had it in their mind for years that the wording was stated otherwise.
