Sesame Street - Slimey to the moon (Tony Bennett)

[FutureDJHero]

Slimy is my #1 Sesame Street character

[pedalpunk57]

Pun or no pun, Tony Bennett's appearance on Sesame Street has to rate as one of the best appearances in the show's 41 year history. I loved this so much I converted it to audio and saved it. He is one of the greatest crooners of all time and still alive today doing his thing...why he could make a jingle for manure sound like solid gold.

Same tune as Fly me to the moon.

i cant find the episode when slimey goes into outerspace anywhere it was like my favorite episode just because i am older doesn't mean i still can't love this show i watched this when i was little so i will always love the characters and how much joy it brought me every time i turned on my tv to watch it

[mohinderbauer]

@musa2music I'm right there with you. Sesame Street has had such a positive impact on me that I still turn to PBS to check up on the neighborhood. The show's format may have changed, but it still provides great moments like this one.

i really want to see all the Slimy & the Moon episodes it looks really awesome

[traumagirl111]

This is one of my very favorite moments of Sesame Street. I guess that Tony Bennett did a parody of Frank Sinatra's song Fly Me To The Moon. I sang this song in school one time. The teacher and the other kids thought that it was funny and cute. I wish that I could have part of that song for a Ringtone on my cell phone, but I think that I like Scrubs better.

Thanks for posting this. Its wonderful and Tony Bennett gives a great performance.

[Vook]

This is a fairly new sketch so it's not really a part of my childhood, but I really liked it anyway. I thought the shot at 00:39 was rather touching, Oscar saying goodbye to his worm. :)

It aired in the late 90's.

[rmumusicalrob]

1:02-1:12 appears in the 1997 prat of the 35th anniversary special.

[jx346]

wait, i know thats what it shows in the special, but wasnt this aired in 1999 for the millenium?

[WayneLondon]

A parody of his own hit. Has that been done before?

[ISNorden]

Now that is a five-star parody (no pun intended) if I've ever heard one!
