Song of the Day: Chim Chim Che-ree was written by the Sherman Brothers for the 1964 Disney musical, “Mary Poppins” and received the Oscar for Best Original Song. Along with the kids, it is sung in the film by Dick Van Dyke, who turns 100 today and Julie Andrews, who turned 90 on October 1. Happy birthday to the legendary DVD who gave us memorable moments in film and on television! Check out the scene from the film [YouTube link].
