foldedspace.org: Sesame Street Video Clips

foldedspace.org: Sesame Street Video Clips: "same Street Video Clips (61)

I state quite confidently that this is the best entry I've made in five years of weblogging. Go away if you have work things to get done. This is an enormous time-waster.

Below you'll find a fantastic collection of Sesame Street video clips. These are great. I remember many of these from when I was a kid. I've tried to organzize them as best I can. If you know of more Muppet/Sesame Street clips, please let me know.

Let's start with a song we all know by heart: 'one two three FOUR five, six seven eight NINE ten, eleven twelve...'

Next we have a random selection of number and alphabet clips, as well as random skits:
Letters versus numbers.
Telephone rock
Look at this
The alligator king and his seven sons
Yakety yak
I remember liking this one as a kid: sounds
My martian cutie (number nine)
Jake the snake — body parts
King Minus
Fishing for the alphabet
Animal department store elevator
Song about riding the subway.
The rhyming song
Count it higher
Robert DeNiro imagines he's Elmo (the spawn of Satan)
For Kris: the mad goat
Funny farm
The ladybug picnic
The number painter (and Stockard Channing! — I always loved this)
Mahna Mahna
We all live in a capital I
Choosing a national bird (hilarious!)
The villain in the panama hat

How about a collection of popular songs done Sesame Street-style?
Johnny Cash and Big Bird: Don't Take Your Ones to Town'
R.E.M. and the Monsters: 'Furry Happy Monsters'
Stevie Wonder: '1-2-3'
Ray Charles (and Patrick Stewart?!?): The Alphabet Song'
The Beetles: 'Letter B'
Norah Jones (and that spawn of Satan, Elmo): 'Don't Know Y'
'Born to Add' (minus Bruce Springsteen)

For Jeff — the 'yip yip' Martians:
The Martians meet a telephone
The Martians meet a computer
