I Love the World

Posted by Jim on June 3, 2008

Of course we all know that I Love the World is from the theme song to The Discovery Channel.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=V5BxymuiAxQ - the video in case you are someone who knows what this month’s Oprha book is or who is having an affair with some other person on All My Children, but don’t know this great channel. Now some of you might watch Deadliest Catch. BUT how could you not know this song?
