The butterfly ball

I was going about my work today like a busy little bee when I started humming - or buzzing, I suppose, to keep the bee metaphor going - a tune that suddenly popped into my head - pop! - just like that. (I should reassure you that I was alone in the office today, so wasn't inflicting this noise on my colleagues.) Anyway, then I started to remember the words of the song that I was humming. Something about "all you need is love and understanding, ring the bell and let the people know", and then it all came back with a bang - bang! - it was "The Butterfly Ball"!
Do you remember this? It used to just pop up on TV when I was little, a funny little animation about a frog leading all these costumed animals to the Butterfly Ball set to a Beatles-y sort of song. I loved it, although it turns out I've had the name wrong all these years; the actual track is called "Love Is All".
And thanks to the miracle of YouTube, it's right here:
I could have sworn it ended with a live action shot of a beardy man playing the guitar in his living room.
