A List Of Best To Worst Schoolhouse Rock Videos

In grade school, I vividly remember watching all of the "Schoolhouse Rock" videos on repeat. I actually had a DVD with all of the videos on them and I would just watch them for fun because that's how much I loved it. I do still watch these videos from time to time and I enjoy them like I'm watching them for the first time. You get the same learning experience every time you watch the video. I came up with the idea for this article when I was scrolling through ABC's throwback section on their watch ABC app. They had numerous "Schoolhouse Rock videos," so why not put them in order of best to worst (in my opinion). (For the purpose of the list, I have decided to exclude the Earth Rock songs as I did not realize they were a thing until I wrote this article)

Numbers 1-10:

All of the songs that I have listed as 1-10 I think are some of the most recognizable songs in all of Schoolhouse Rock. They might not necessarily be my favorite but if you ask someone what "Schoolhouse Rock" is and they don't know, play one of these songs and they will definitely recognize at least one of them. There are a lot of Grammar rock and Multiplication rock that make up the top 10, probably because it is so catchy.

1. Lolly, Lolly, Lolly Get Your Adverbs Here


2. Interjections!

3. Conjunction Junction

4. I'm Just A Bill


5. Three Is A Magic Number


6. Electricity, Electricity

7. The Preamble

8. The Shot Heard 'Round The World

9. Interplanet Janet

10. Figure Eight

Numbers 11-20:

The next ten videos are still recognizable but it takes someone who knows "Schoolhouse Rock" a bit to know these videos. Again, Grammar Rock and Multiplication Rock kind of dominate this section but I brought in some Science Rock and Money Rock as well. "Tyrannosaurus Debt" is probably the only one that is controversial here but I think it's one of the better videos which is why I placed it in this section.

11. Ready or Not, Here I Come

12. My Hero, Zero

13. Unpack Your Adjectives

14. The Great American Melting Pot


15. Telegraph Line

16. Elementary, My Dear

17. Verb: That's What's Happenin'

18. Tyrannosaurus Debt

19. Dollars And Sense

20. A Noun Is A Person, Place Or Thing

Numbers 21-30:

There is a lot of History Rock videos listed in these ten videos. I would think that's because the History Rock videos, while being really well done, were never quite as popular. There are some Grammar Rock videos that made it here too and I rounded out this section with some Science Rock because Them Not-So-Dry Bones is such a quality video. I've seen on other lists that Sufferin' Till Suffrage has been placed higher up but I just wasn't a big fan of the video to put it any higher on the list.

21. No More Kings

22. Elbow Room

23. Naughty Number Nine

24. Busy Prepositions

25. Them Not-So-Dry Bones

26. Mother Necessity

27. Fireworks

28. A Victim Of Gravity

29. Sufferin' Till Suffrage

30. The Tale Of Mr. Morton

Numbers 31-40:

As I get further down the list, I find it easier and easier to put them into a list because I either really like the video or I really dislike the video. Most of them left are Science Rock or Money Rock as well so they're very easy to put into a list. I don't really think there are any controversies on this part of the list because I think all of them are lower list material.

31. The Body Machine

32. Tax Man Max

33. Lucky Seven Sampson

34. Three Ring Government

35. $7.50 Once A Week

36. Do The Circulation

37. I'm Gonna Send Your Vote To College

38. This For That

39. I Got Six

40. Where The Money Goes

Numbers 41-49:

I finally reached the end of the list and as I said for the earlier section, I found this to be pretty easy to order. I think the only thing people would disagree with is "Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla." People really like that song but I just don't think it was very well done. I just don't really like that song.

41. Rufus Xavier Sarsaparilla

42. The Check's In The Mail

43. Walkin' On Wall Street

44. The Four Legged Zoo

45. The Good Eleven

46. The Energy Blues

47. Little Twelvetoes

48. Presidential Minute

49. The Greatest Show On Earth

Overall, I think everyone can agree that "Schoolhouse Rock" is great no matter how old you are. You can always watch these videos and learn something from them, which is fascinating. We can disagree on what videos are better than others but Schoolhouse Rock will always have a special place in my brain.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here.
