Hi everyone, Tish Rabe here! I am very proud to share that I wrote two of the most popular VHS tapes of all time for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
In 1993, I had just finished writing all the lyrics for the children's show the Fox Kids Cubhouse, and was asked by Christopher Films to write the songs for both videos. I used public domain melodies like "I've Been Working on the Railroad" to write the songs, and have always been pleased by how many fans of the Turtles reach out to me to tell me they love the videos. My song from We Wish You a Turtle Christmas, "Gotta Get a Gift for Splinter", was just used in the trailer for the new Turtles movie from Paramount Pictures!
