Winnie-the-Pooh(song)

The theme song of the Winnie-the-Pooh franchise was written by the Sherman brothers, who have written the grand majority of Winnie the Pooh songs and musical numbers since 1966. The song was featured in the first Winnie the Pooh cartoon; the 1966 short film Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree, by Walt Disney.

The lyric gives an overview of the characters and the roles each plays in relation to Pooh himself. The song has been used in every theatrically released Pooh film, as well as most of the television series. Notably, Tigger is the only original character from the books (thus does not count Gopher, Kessie or Lumpy) not to be named in this song and this is probably the reason why he gets his own introduction song "The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers" when he first appears in Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day.

This song has been featured in many of the Disney Winnie the Pooh films. In Pooh's Heffalump Movie it was performed by Carly Simon and arranged by Joel McNeely.
