After using the same iconic theme song originally sung by disco soul singer Tina Fabrique for 16 years, children’s television show Reading Rainbow replaced the beloved intro in 2001 with a new one recorded by 10-time Grammy Award winner Chaka Khan.

Reading Rainbow was on television from June 6, 1983 to November 10, 2006 and is the fourth-longest running children’s show on PBS. During its span of 21 seasons and 155 episodes, Reading Rainbow won over 200 broadcast awards, including a Peabody Award as well as 26 Emmy Awards.
