What's your favorite Sesame Street song?
 

"C is for Cookie" is one and the other is when they do a count for the number of the day.

C is for Cookie, that's good enough for me,
C is for Cookie, that's good enough for me,
C is for Cookie, that's good enough for me,
Oh, cookie cookie cookie starts with C!

ETA:
I dont remember if Cookie Monster sang this or one of the other muppets.

Yeah it's silly I know but i'm bored:)

i love the songs that teaches numbers. they always take me back. i still love sesame street. i am not ashamed!

The theme song...sunny days...now I have it my head. :D

I always liked this one... :)

One of these things is not like the others,
One of these things doesn't belong,
Can you tell which thing is not like the other,
Before I finish this song?

toss up between:

i love trash

"ohhh i love trash..anything dirty or dingy or dusty...anything ragged or rotten or rusty...ohhhh i love trash"

or

rubber duckie song

"rubber duckie..you're the one...you make bathtime so much fun..rubber duckie i'm awfully fond of yooouu.."

i heart sesame street

I like when they did the Beetles as muppets (looked like bugs) and sung Letter B ("Let Her Be") That was cute. And Follow the Arrow.

Sesame Street has simultaneously taught me how to count and ruined my life.
To this day, whenever I'm counting out loud or in my head I sing "one two three FOUR five, six seven eight NINE ten, eleven tweeeelllllllllve". If any of you have heard this you know what I'm talking about.

My all time favorite is Teeny Little Super Guy:
"He's no bigger than your thumb: snap your fingers, here I come!
Don't look in the sky, don't look in the sea, he's inside of you and me (kinda creepy)
You can't tell a hero by his size, he's just a teeny little super guy.
Oooohhhhhhh yeahhhhh."

LOVE IT.

Also-
Cereal girl, sung to Madonna's Material Girl.

I love Rubber Duckie too.Especially the version where Little Richard sings with Ernie.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 :D

I also like the Number Song. I may be thinking of some other PBS-esque show, but was there a song about Pinwheels? Because I vaguely remember one, but not the words or anything. I think it involved a bunch of kids on a playground or something playing with pinwheels.

A Tie...
 

It's a tie between "We All Live in A Capital I" and "Lowercase N". Patti Labelle's "How I love My X" is a close second.

1, 2, 3
4, 5, 6
7, 8, 9
10, 11, 12
ladybugs came
to the ladybug picnic!

Also loved The Alligator King (7!)

I Don't Want to Live on the Moon
I Don't Want To Live On The Moon
sung by Ernie

Well, I'd like to visit the moon
On a rocketship high in the air.
Yes, I'd like to visit the moon,
But I don't think I'd like to live there.
Though I'd like to look down at the earth
From above,
I'd miss all the places
and people I love,
So although I might like it for one afternoon,
I don't want to live on the moon.

I'd like to travel under the sea.
I could meet all the fish everywhere.
Yes, I'd travel under the sea,
But I don't think I'd like to live there.
I might stay for a day there
If I had my wish,
But there's not much to do
When your friends are all fish,
And an oyster and clam aren't real family,
So I don't want to live under the sea.

I'd like to visit the jungle,
Hear the lion's roar;
Go back in time and meet a dinosaur.
There's so many strange places I'd like to be
But none of them permanently.
So if I should visit the moon,
Well, I'll dance on a moonbeam, and then
I will make a wish on a star,
And I'll wish I was home once again.
Though I'd like to look down at the earth from above,
I would miss all the places
And people I love
So although I may go,
I'll be coming home soon,
'Cause I don't want to live on the moon.
No, I don't want to live on the moon.

And who could forget...

"There's a hole in my bucket, Dear Liza, Dear Liza..."

definitely my favorite is the shows theme song "Sunny day....chasing the clouds away..."


But now i have a child and we watch it every morning and buy him elmo dolls i love "Elmo's World" ...."elmo loves his gold fish and cayrons too.... thats elmos world!"

I like:

"Who are the people in your neighborhood?"

"1 ,2, 3, 4 , 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12"

I seem to recall this one about the number 11, where this crazy old lady (cartoon) says "11 o'clock, time to get up!!"

holy crap!! this is the song that i was thinking of during my post. i was singing this to my mom this morning. i love that song. i love watching the pinball go through all the obstacles. *sigh* you just made my night.

"I Love Trash."

Also "One of these things is not like the others."

and "C is for cookie"

Hope I'm not the only one who remembers "The Batty Bat" with the Count:

"Dance with me, doing... THE BATTY BAT!!!"
"Batty Batty Batty - 1, 2, 3 count!!!!"
"Batty Batty Batty - 1, 2, 3 count!!!!"
"Dance with me, doing... THE BATTY BAT!!!"

Wow, this is far more fun than finishing an o-chem prelab!!!!

I love the 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12 song.
And it was like a pinball machine...yeah that song kicks butt!

I'll second the vote for this one! My second favorite:

"Wubba wubba wubba wubba woo woo woo.
Wubba wubba wubba and a doddly doo...."

Cuz remember:

If you wubba me then I will wubba you.

I saw the title of this thread and immediately came to post this one!

Another one that I really liked was something like "Breathe in...breathe out...breathe in....breathe out..." something about being alive. I dunno. It was very disco-y 70's like.

There was...the theme song was something like "Pinwheel, pinwheel, spinning around..something something and see what I've found." I think it was on Nickelodeon.

C is for Cookie


http://instagiber.net/smiliesdotcom/...ye/stretch.gif

The Honker Duckie Dinger Jamboree!

"Letter B"

that is the coolest song!

Oh, and the "Beet beet sugar beet beet sugar beet sugar beet beeeeeeet!"

and "Milk Miiiiilk Milk....so good so warm so white"

Those are the song that I actually sing to myself sometimes...and I am 26!

Speaking of "Sesame Street," did anyone see Elmo, Zoe and Big Bird on "The West Wing" last night??? It was soooo cute!!!

I love the Sesame Street theme song, Rubber Ducky, and C is for Cookie myself. :)

Re: A Tie...
 

Oh my gosh! I loved that one, but no one else EVER remembers it! I'm so glad I'm not the only one!

Re: What's your favorite Sesame Street song?
 

I LOVE THIS SONG!!!
because I would sing

C IS FOR CARA, THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME!!!

I was such a narcassitic child!!!

But my other fav would have to be "Rubber ducky, you're the one. You make bath time lots of fun"

I like Kermit's Bein' Green

It's not that easy bein' green
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
When I think it could be nicer being red or yellow or gold
Or something much more colorful like that
It's not easy bein' green
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're
Not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
Or stars in the sky
But green's the color of Spring
And green can be cool and friendly-like
And green can be big like an ocean
Or important like a mountain
Or tall like a tree
When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why
But why wonder, why wonder?
I am green and it'll do fine
It's beautiful!
And I think it's what I want to be

What about "Doin' the Pidgon" sung by Bert.

I did and thoughtit was cute when abby tries to give elmo a shot .....toooo cute:)

YESSSSSS!!! I love that one!http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmili...y/luxhello.gif

By the way, people, add the words if you can remember them. That way, we'll have the songs stuck in our heads all day long(insert evil laugh herehttp://www.handykult.de/plaudersmili...l/evil_lol.gif)

I FOUND TEENY LITTLE SUPER GUY!!!! HE WAS THE COOLEST!
http://laurgasm.com/pics/tlsg02.jpg

Grover was my favorite so anything he sang was cool.

Didn't he have a song about being near and far?

And remember when the owl with the jazz club had a show and they sang Birdland? Or was that in a movie?

It's been a while obviously. I can't remember anything.

But "Follow that Bird" was my absolute fav movie when I was a kid.

Monster in the Mirror:

Saw a monster in the mirror
When I woke up today,
A monster in my mirror
But I did not run away.
I did not shed a tear or hide beneath my bed,
Though the monster looked at me
And this is what he said:

Chorus:
Wubba wubba wubba wubba
Woo woo woo,
Wubba wubba wubba
And a doodly-do.


He sang wubba wubba wubba
So I sang it too.
Do not wubba me
Or l will wubba you!
Do not wubba me
Or l will wubba you!

Told the monster in the mirror,
"No, I am not scared!"
Then I smiled at him and thanked him for
The song that we had shared.
Well, the monster thanked me too, me too,
He smiled right back and then
The monster in the mirror sang his song again.
(Repeat chorus. )

He went wubba wubba wubba
And I sang along.
Yes, wubba wubba wubba
Is a monster song!

If your mirror has a monster in it, do not shout;
This kind of situation does not call for freaking out
And do nothing that you would not like to see him do,
'Cause that monster in the mirror
He just might be you.
(Repeat chorus. )

Wubba wubba wubba
You can join in too...

Yes, if you wubba me
Then I will wubba you!
Going wubba wubba wubba
Is the thing to do!

Every time you wubba us
We'll wubba you!

OMG I LOVED THAT MOVIE!!!

I cried when he was stuck in the cage at the circus, and singing that song about being blue.

And my favorite joke as a kid came from that movie-

Kermit the Frog: Why didn't the chicken cross the road? Cause he was chicken- get it??!!


Aaahhh. the good ole days

Hey, does anyone remember the opera singing orange (she sang selections from "Carmen")?

First of all, i LOVE all the songs that have already been posted! I will add the calypso version of the Rubber Duckie song. The chorus was something like:

And do de duck, rubber duck, duck duck duck
Rubber duck, rub-ber duck, duck duck, rubber duck
duck, rubber duck duck, rubber duck
DUCK DUCK RUBBER DUCK RUBBER DUCK DUCK

don't get soap in your eye....cuz that'll make you cry....

i will look for the rest.
