This song… It drilled its way into my brain when I was ten years old, and it is still there almost two decades later! It’s just found a way to stay dormant for long periods of time…
Me too man learned this song in the second grade and every now and then ill just be sitting and recite the words in my head i still use it to count by 3s as well
I was 11 when this came out. To this day I still sing the 3-6-9 ....12-15-18....21-24-27.....30!!! I sing some of the other School House Rock songs as well. "Noun", "I'm just a bill", "Conjunction Junction". Whoever did these knew what they were doing. Thanks for the knowledge!
EXACTLY!! It’s now January 2023 and I’m showing this to my 8 year old. Now if only they had a 2021 song that sang “ Don’t take the experimental Warp Speed Bioweaponnnn! Yes it Is ! 🎶 It’s a Bio Weaponnnn!” ( The mRNA was a 2013 five year Test Phase that killed over 90% of its clinical participants in 2015.) Find out more at Tik Tok professorrandall2 . He’s a survivor of it, as of Dec 2022. ]
I’m now a father and we’re a family of three and every time I watch this cartoon and the two parents with their child, I think of me, my wife, and daughter running through a park together chasing each other in a world surrounded by love.
For me this and "Conjunction, Junction" are the best School House Rock songs of all time. If you have a child that is in the beginning stages of learning the multiplication table, SHOW THEM this video. This song sped up my multiplication proficiency substantially, when I was in the third grade. There hasn't been a math technique, strategy, or lesson plan that has been as effective as this was on me. I still run back the chorus in my head when calculating mentally...today.
There is a reason so many people have done this song, Blind Melon, De La Soul and a whole bunch of others. It rocks! Thanks Bob Dorough and Schoolhouse Rock. Anyone else notice that Jack Black references it in School of Rock?
"Three Is a Magic Number" by Bob Dorough first aired, January 6, 1973. I was 11 at the time. Loved this cartoon, and the song was my favorite then, and still is. Bob passed away in 2018. He was the voice of many of the popular School House Rock songs. He was amazing, and I want to thank him for bringing such joy into all of our lives with his amazing voice and commitment to education.
Three is a magic number Yes it is, it's a magic number Somewhere in that ancient mystic trinity You get three as a magic number The past and the present and the future Faith and hope and charity The heart and the brain and the body Give you three as a magic number It takes three legs to make a tripod or to make a table stand It takes three wheels to make a vehicle called a tricycle And every triangle has three corners Every triangle has three sides No more, no less, you don't have to guess When it's three, you can see Its a magic number A man and a woman had a little baby Yes, they did They had three in the family And that's a magic number Three, six, nine Twelve, fifteen, eighteen Twenty-one, twenty-four, twenty-seven Thirty (Three, six, nine Twelve, fifteen, eighteen Twenty-one, twenty-four, twenty-seven Thirty) Now the multiplies of three Come up three times in each set of ten In the first ten You get three, six, nine And in the teens' ten It's twelve, fifteen and eighteen And in the twenties you get-a Twenty-one, twenty-four, twenty-seven And it comes out even on thirty Three times ten is (thirty) Three times nine is (twenty-seven) Three times eight is (twenty-four) Three times seven is (twenty-one) Three times six is eighteen Three times five is fifteen Three times four is twelve And three times three is nine And three times two is six And three times one is three, of course (Now dig the pattern once more!)

(Three) Yeah, thats a magic number A man and a woman had a little baby Yes, they did There had three in the family That's a magic number
watching this as a young child then and seeing it now again some 50 years later brings back such good memories of a much softer time and place .. thank you so much
last time i heard this song was when i was 7. I'm 19 now, and just the mention of the song title from my dad suddenly brought all the words back to me. Ah nostalgia (3
My mom and dad both listened to all of these songs as a kid and now I remember playing them in my 3rd grade classroom. Boy the memories I have had with this song. This is by far my favorite song of schoolhouse rock. Thanks so much for the memories 😃
I watched these as a kid on Saturday mornings, and I liked these segments better than the cartoons. All these years later, I can't stop smiling hearing this.😎
First saw this as a child on ABC in 1973 when it was known as "Multapication Rock." The sight of the frantic football players running over the hapless magician twice was always funny .
Brings back memories of us kids dragging blankets to wrap up in while eating sugar cereal by the handful out of the box and sitting in front of the living room TV early on Saturday mornings to watch cartoons for hours while our parents slept in. I'm a little too young to remember this one per se but I probably saw "I'm just a bill" and "Conjunction junction" a dozen times back in the '70's while flipping through the only half-dozen VHF/UHF channels we could tune in to watch Super Friends, Fat Albert, Scooby-Doo, Shmoo, Plastic-Man, and Road Runner if we used a metal coat hanger in the back of our B&W TV to replace the antenna that broke off. Fun times.
50 years ago, on January 6, 1973, "Three is a Magic Number" premiered on ABC. Next week, "The Magic Number" by De La Soul will make its streaming debut. And on March 3, 2023, the rest of De La Soul's discography will follow.
This segment was first shown on the children's show "Curiosity Shop" in 1971 before it was the first segment of the Schoolhouse Rock series when it premiered in 1973.
@@TheInkPitOx - chapter 32. An inscription on the Third Gate's surface reads "Charity, Hope, Faith." The members of the High Five eventually deduce that the words come from the song "Three Is a Magic Number" from the TV show Schoolhouse Rock! This means that three copies of the Crystal Key are needed to open the Third Gate.
A magician shows how magic the multiplication of 3 really is, including a family of 3 and a football team whose uniforms are numbered in threes. "Three Is a Magic Number" was the pilot episode and had originally aired in full as part of Curiosity Shop on September 2, 1971. When aired on Multiplication Rock, a small portion was cut due to an error: Dorough had included a claim that there were exactly three multiples of three in every set of ten natural numbers, but this generalization fails when the first number in the set is a multiple of 30, in which case there are four multiples of three.
This takes me back to my childhood when this would come on tv during Saturday morning cartoons. Then when De La Soul had this on their album back in the late 80’s. This is a timeless song for sure. What a great and perfect addition to the movie. Love it 🥰
I remeber hearing this song in 2nd grade and it just stuck with me for all this time. I’m so glad I got to rehear this song in Spider-Man No Way Home 🙏🏾
1. I read Ready Player One 2. I hear this song and I like it 3. Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield and Tom Holland (the three Spider-Men) There's no doubt, Three Is A Magic Number
This short holds a unique distinction of being the first Schoolhouse Rock episode ever made. This first premiered on The Curiosity Shop Special in ABC on September 2, 1971. The Curiosity Shop Special was the first episode of a rather obscure ABC kids show that was meant to be a rival to the PBS show Sesame Street, and it was created by Chuck Jones of Looney Tunes fame, who was president of ABC's children's television division and was vocally on the side of the Action for Children's Television.
I’m 30 , I’m a welder and fabricator whenever I have to measure or count by 3’s I sing along to this song which I still remember from when I was in elementary. I’ve always counted by threes like this and not until this very moment have I searched up this song to see if it brings back memories.
Some of the catchiest music ever which I've remembered since my own Gen-X childhood. RIP Mr. George Newall (1934 - 2022) Your efforts for Schoolhouse Rock, esp. this great work of art here, were genius.
I showed this to my 3rd grade students and they LOVE this! I remember this from when my parents played this on tv when I was little and knew it would work LOL.
When I was a kid I just could not grasp multiplication. My dyslexia made it so difficult. No matter how many times we did the flashcards and monute math and every other activity I just couldn't do it. Then my dad made me a school house rock cd and every night he turned on my radio when I went to bed. After a while I still couldn't do the math, but I could quote the songs and eventually that turned into knowing multiplication. Though, it's been 20 years and being told to use a calculator in school kind of eliminated my ability to retain any math knowledge, but it helped at the time! Lol
This video actually brought tears to my eyes. When I was young maybe 3 or 4 my dad left my mother my brother and I. I remember him saying 3 was a good number, I don't know why but that stuck in my mind
Hey man that sucks. We didn't have much growing up but I did have my mom and dad. He passed away a few years back. Still miss him but I can't imagine growing up without him. I hope you can give that presence to your children
Sending you a virtual hug! My ‘friend’ said something similar to his to his wife and her daughter and he stopped being my friend when I found out days later. I still keep in close contact with his ex wife and daughter and they are now my besties!
A children's educational song from 50 years ago has no business being this much of a banger
Well said, friend. This has been pretty heavily stuck in my head for the last couple weeks.
That was the intention. 😉
You ain’t kidding I was grooving back in time

This one and 'Naughty Number Nine' were my favorites.

I still always count by 3s because I watched this in third grade when we learned multiplication. So awesome
Idk why but my mom doesn’t really like this one but I do
Yeah this one and 5s stuck in my head for decades.
Absolutely. Sing it from time to time and just showed our kids. Great memories!
From Schoolhouse Rock… to De La Soul… to Spider-Man: No Way Home… the power of 3 never dies!
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one to know the Spider-Man end credits was school house rock

Three is a magic number
Yes it is, it's a magic number
Somewhere in that ancient mystic trinity
You get three as a magic number
The past and the present and the future
Faith and hope and charity
The heart and the brain and the body
Give you three as a magic number
It takes three legs to make a tripod or to make a table stand
It takes three wheels to make a vehicle called a tricycle
And every triangle has three corners
Every triangle has three sides
No more, no less, you don't have to guess
When it's three, you can see
Its a magic number
A man and a woman had a little baby
Yes, they did
They had three in the family
And that's a magic number
Three, six, nine
Twelve, fifteen, eighteen
Twenty-one, twenty-four, twenty-seven
Thirty
(Three, six, nine
Twelve, fifteen, eighteen
Twenty-one, twenty-four, twenty-seven
Thirty)
Now the multiplies of three
Come up three times in each set of ten
In the first ten
You get three, six, nine
And in the teens' ten
It's twelve, fifteen and eighteen
And in the twenties you get-a
Twenty-one, twenty-four, twenty-seven
And it comes out even on thirty
Three times ten is (thirty)
Three times nine is (twenty-seven)
Three times eight is (twenty-four)
Three times seven is (twenty-one)
Three times six is eighteen
Three times five is fifteen
Three times four is twelve
And three times three is nine
And three times two is six
And three times one is three, of course
(Now dig the pattern once more!)
Twelve, fifteen, eighteen (Twenty-one)
Twenty-one, twenty-four, twenty-seven
Thirty (Yeah)
Three times ten is (thirty)
Three times nine is (twenty-seven)
Three times eight is (twenty-four)
Three times seven is (twenty-one)
Three times six is eighteen
Three times five is fifteen
Three times four is twelve
And three times three is nine
And three times two is six
And three times one
What is it? (Three)
Yeah, thats a magic number
A man and a woman had a little baby
Yes, they did
There had three in the family
That's a magic number
Yup. I don’t like that the bridge between the pre chorus and chorus had to be omitted.

"Three Is a Magic Number" was the pilot episode and had originally aired in full as part of Curiosity Shop on September 2, 1971.

And because of the obvious return of the two you know who, totalling 3

And because it's the *magic* number

I remember him saying 3 was a good number, I don't know why but that stuck in my mind
Hey man that sucks. We didn't have much growing up but I did have my mom and dad. He passed away a few years back. Still miss him but I can't imagine growing up without him. I hope you can give that presence to your children
Sending you a virtual hug!
My ‘friend’ said something similar to his to his wife and her daughter and he stopped being my friend when I found out days later.
I still keep in close contact with his ex wife and daughter and they are now my besties!
Prince Paul and De La definitely picked the BEST samples to make 3 feet high and rising STILL relevant nearly 40 YEARS LATER.
Magical! Brings back memories of my 70s childhood.
Love the part with the football players!! Classic.
Thanks for posting!!
Even after all these years, I still love this song.
If you remember this from your childhood and coming to listen to this in 2022 you’re a legend
Most likely found it looking for the nwh onee
Fuck YES!!!
Many years later, I still listen to this, just for the nostalgia it brings.
I heard this at the mall today sounded soo catchy so I found it here I didn’t know if was a song from school of rock man this brings back memories 🥲
2:26 is my favorite part
I learned this in 3rd grade 28 years ago now I’m using it to teach my four kids in homeschool! Love it
I have loved this video and song since it was on VHS in 1993. I was in 3rd grade and i remember it almost 30 years later. Thank you Ms. Estes!
