i got so annoyed with this song i'd go around saying 'that g damn song" i was a kid so i didnt know it was rude. plus my dad always says it. so what do i expect..
I have been looking for this song forever!!! Years! I'm so glad it's here. Been trying to explain to a friend what song I'm talkin' about, and he thinks I'm trying to remember the name of THIS song... Thanks, Sesame Street, for posting it.
Every generation is going to ask for "their Sesame Street" back. Thats how you know how special and perpetually relevant Sesame Street is. Thanks Jim, for giving this bird life and loving it enough to let it go.
As I am sitting here watching this with my son, I have to wonder was this 70s or early 80s? He really loves this song, because he just crawled back LOL
1974, O-O Woah, I was born to late, Id be old enough to enjoy these classics and be old enough to get an Ata... Still it gives me that feeling, Bob, Gordon, and co. were all Hot and Cool back then, I feel bad I missed out on fun times. >< I am favoring this! Bob and Gordon were awesome!
everyone back then was slim and in shape, and bare in mind there were no diets and gyms shoved down our throats....you guys want to know why everyone is fat and overweight...you are being poisoned - the food and water you drink is killing you!
@neocryptz His real name was Will Lee. He played Mr. Hooper who owned the store. He died in the 80's, and instead of saying that Mr. Hooper moved away or something, they added that to the Sesame Street story. It's heart wrenching, but they had the courage to discuss death.
@vampirealdys wow i didn't know that he was Mr. Hooper. i remember when he died. i've got a little baby girl a week old and once she's ready for tv sesame street is at the top of the list!
I remember watching this episode on tv when I was little. So many memories are flooding back. THis was the good Sesame Street before the Co$ took over and ruined everything.
@selcukeren88 The words are the same, bu the tone is a bit off....this version is better though, eventhough they don't even know the words of this song (sigh)..
This video has to be at least 25 years old. Because it has Mr. Hooper in it. And he died in 1982. And the sideburns are the old style in mid to late 70's. And the gentleman that plays the Gordon started sometime around 1978. So I hope that helps you with a time line. And I used to watch it from the very beginning.
does anyone know the name of that song it goes la di da dum la di da dum something something bird i wish i remembered the words what the name of the song that they are trying to figure out anyone know
@DeaconDeZ seriously, i think these 27 ppl just didnt live in that time, and just don't get how awesome it was. there r ppl with very poor childhoods with sweet memories of sesame street:)
@torontonian1978 That's right! I even had moments in my childhood that weren't great. I was in a fire at 4 yrs. old & was seriously burned (don't worry, I made a complete recovery) but even in that situation, I still had fond memories & Sesame Street was one of them.
If Stone Cold Steve Austin had written it, "What" would definitely be the name of that song.
