By Stage Stars. By Clark Gesner. Arranged by John Ivor Holland. 20th Century,Broadway,Film/TV,Musical/Show. 6 pages. John Ivor Holland #884949. Published by John Ivor Holland (A0.1294597).During the early 1960s, Clark Gesner had begun writing songs based on Charles Schulz's Peanuts characters, but was unable to get permission from United Feature Syndicate to use the characters in his songs. Eventually Gesner sent Schulz a demo recording of some of the songs and soon had permission to properly record them, which he did in 1966. At the time, Gesner had no plans for a musical based on this "concept album", however, producer Arthur Whitelaw, who would later go on to write another musical based on Peanuts entitled "Snoopy! The Musical", encouraged Gesner to turn the album into a musical and it premiered Off-Broadway the following year. This lovely little song comes right at the end of the show, when Charlie Brown realises that today hasn't been so bad, and he's done a lot of things that make him happy; as he expresses what makes him happy, everyone around him, touched by his love of life, begin to express what makes them happy as well. :).
