Sesame Street - Billy Joel sings the alphabet

[sweetlife031]

I think his daughter Alexa was the one with the pink bow in her hair :)

[ninjacoralinekitty]

I love it when Billy Joel goes "Yaaaaayyy!" at the end of the video. You never expect to hear one of your favorite artists sing the ABCs.

[EminemCathleen4ever]

Billy Joel & George Lopez on Sesame Street yay!!

[EminemCathleen4ever]

I claped for this 

[starwarsfreakgeek]

This was the first episode of Sesame Street I ever saw.

[ALLERTORLOVER69]

sing you may be right!

[Anth150]

I hope he didn't drive a car to sesame street

[mzmet2001]

i have sing the alphabet from when i was 3 and i saw it in recomendations 11 years later and i was like that billy joel!!!!!!

[mzmet2001]

if your billy joel... you wont just be able to say the alphabet youll be able to sing it

[owmaeyen]

I already know my ABC's now and also I know alt about Billy Joel and he's my Uncle Sunny's favorite singer right Uncle Sunny?

[Conzuelo24]

Nice, they had no idea who he was, how innocent

[skiwebb23]

AND isn't a letter HA

[luluslader]

man is he cute!

[Avenger476]

my little 2 year old sister like the song.

[Sirenhound]

ok kids, that's great, now lets try 'Only the good die young'

[agentchanman1]

When was it that he went on Sesame Street to sing this?

[IanLoewen]

Now I like the ABC song cause Billy sang it. I do not know what he does to the most simple song, but whatever he does, it is awesome. He is certainly one of the best piano players of all time.

[kcufmalsi]

Just think, these kids had no idea they were singing with a musical genius.

[RealTime88]

I wonder if they went home to their parents and asked them who Billy Joel was after singing with him.

[ChrisMolyneaux93]

@kcufmalsi I had the "Do the Alphabet" tape of Sesame Street, and to be honest I didn't know either until many years later.

[Rkerekes13]

@kcufmalsi And since they're all probably grown up now, they may remember what a thrill it might have been meeting him!

[KBGUY09]

his voice sounds great at this point... lol its just the alphabet song but it sounds so good

[CallousVixen]

Billy Joel holds commanding power over young children.

[dulcimerkj52]

This was the first time I had heard of Billy Joel. Needless to say I'm a huge fan of his today. Thanks so much Billy!!!

[opheliasopus]

I remember this! Billy Joel is the best!

[itsaminky]

Quite probably the greatest rendition of the alphabet song I have ever heard. :)

[ofchicago]

I agree

[lonesnowflakeaz]

i agree as well <3

[villian3690]

I love himm!! haha

[jd24717]

I love Billy Joel. What a genius.

[Aliced1987]

Hahahah, this rocked. :D

[whammer0411]

See though what you don't see at the end is when Billy tells the kids, "Don't take any shit from no one!!" For obvious reasons.

[YOGGIJ]

soooooooooo cute! I love it!

[ddvtsh]

Man, Billy Joel rocks

[semperfaithful]

Just think, these kids have NO IDEA they're singing with a musical GENIUS!!!!!

[lilmissmuah]

hey i saw this episode!! i remember watchin it when i wuz a kid jus bout 9

[Deadpool037]

I've never been much of one for the alphabet, and I always found this song tiresome and lacking a real hook. I must say though, something about this intrigues me and shines new light on literacy. Well played, sir.

[whiteraven6670]

how lame.

[nlllvqkers]

Yeah, the ABCs suck. So do learning to read and tying your shoes. And potty-training's for fags. Only conformists fill out job applications, and eating your vegetables would get you your ass whooped in my neighborhood. Whiteraven, we are kindred spirits.

[izzfunk]

LMAO awesome.

[tan21121]

do the kids know who they are singing with, bet they aint got a clue they are singing with a musical god

[Rynoel978]

true dat!!

[CommentorX]

That's nothing - I had to sing this song backwards for a drunk test recently. Who knew the police carried electronic keyboards in their cars?

[DrummerBoy922]

Funny thing, I once met a cop who plays the guitar. I wonder if he carries it around for drunk tests?

[michaelmoval]

Wow! Awesome ABC singer like Billy Joel in this clip! I really like Billy Joel! I have my Billy Joel CD collection and two Billy Joel box sets.

[imafreaky]

His wife would have been the right age to have been there singing along with the rest of the kids! Was this where he met her?

[jcgamer107]

haha yeah she's the one with the red bow in her hair

[Jamiepeavler]

I have been a Billy Joel fan for 18 years, and this is awesome!

[bzzcat]

Better than he sings the National Anthem!

[kyrykyry9]

NOW I KNOW MY ABC...THANKS BILLY!!!:)

[amazed66]

Is that why the letters of the alphabet are in that order, because of this song? :)

[pianoman815]

Wow!!! he sings the alphebet Awesome!!! haha!!
