This is amazing. Must watch. Mister Rogers remixed by Symphony of Science's John Boswell for PBS

I've had no exposure to Mr. Rogers beyond the reference in XKCD but this really is very good.

Mister Rogers remixed by Symphony of Science's John Boswell for PBS Digital Studios. When we discovered video mash-up artist John D. Boswell, aka melodysheep, on YouTube, we immediately wanted to work together. Turns out that he is a huge Mister Rogers Neighborhood fan, and was thrilled at the chance to pay tribute to one of our heroes. Both PBS and the Fred Rogers Company hope you like John's celebration of Fred Rogers' message. (Headphones highly recommended!) This is the first in a series of PBS icons remixed. Many thanks to the folks at the Fred Rogers Company for their support.

This is beyond brilliant...
Gotta admit, I got a little misty watching it. Mr. Rogers was such a big part of my childhood. He was really one of a kind.
Also? SLIDE-WHISTLE SOLO!!! ;-)
PBS autotunes Mr. Rogers, the results are tender and trippy »
You may be familiar with John D. Boswell's Symphony of Science music videos, which take the titans of academic inquiry and turn their words into song.
