  • At the very end Elmo actually spoke in the first person!!!

  • The Cookie Monster's intervention during the final verse is the closest we've come to a Tom Waits/Elvis Costello duet in a couple of decades.

  • He sounds like Stewie mixed with PeeWee hermit

  • Comment removed

  • @talory oh...for years i thought it was "Hermit" xD

  • lol@kev

    

  • Elmo harmonizes.

  • Elvis Costello, just one in the very long line of musicians who are ugly as hell.

  • @kev3d he's not..he looks good..even better with the salt and pepper

  • Comment removed

  • @kev3d Not every musician is cute or hot :P...

  • Gg nG

  • Cute, but it makes me long for one of the best couplets in popular song:

    I said, 'I'm so happy I could die,"

    She said, 'Go drop dead!,' and left with another guy

  • Speaking as someone who grew up on Sesame Street, this is absolutely incredible. Song selection clearly picked for the parents (or grandparents even - gah), perfectly fine for the kids.

    And the perfect segway for you to say to your kids "You know, I have that guy's music, you wanna hear it?"

  • most compelling argument ever for not having children. it rots you.

  • COWABUNGA!

  • god this is so annoying.

  • Hipster Elmo?

  • cowabunga!!!

    elvis rocks!

  • (I Don't Want 2) Go 2 Chelsea

  • coooool

    

  • @DivineNails1 I didn't mean to vote this comment down as a dislike. I thought the video was incredible and very funny! "Hey Look! A MONSTER CAME ALONG AND ATE MY RED "2"!

  • Great combo!

  • Hddhdjshdjdsjsj.

  • Kawabanga !!!!

    :)

  • best video of 2011, fact.

  • costello is great, ... even with a red monster at his site :) lovely

  • @alexandraxyzoo7 Elmo has always been cool. I hope Elvis's two boys Dexter and Frank love this.

  • I'm a fan of the music, not the man.

  • @youmaycallmeken

    That's a shame really, 'cause he's just such a massive fan of you right now.

  • Good DESPITE the presence of Elmo!

  • Makes me smile every time I watch it. Great job everyone. :-)

  • I feel really bad for the ppl that disliked this. Your life must really suck.

  • @captainfarktard Yes, they are insensitive to this and everything else that is geared towards kids

  • Elvis, how can you hear Cookie Monster's shouting over that getup you're wearing? :P

  • there is a furry little number two playing guitar right beside you.

  • ive not heard COWABUNGA since teenage mutant ninja turtles!!

  • @purehatred0 Me too

  • Elvis is having a blast, and Elmo is dressed like Elvis, not dmc.

  • That is the sweetest thing in the world.

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, yeah. Sweet.

  • Sxxzzzz

  • OH...AND ELMO ROCKS! ELVIS COSTELLO IS A GENIUS!

  • Elvis...you are brilliant. Cookie...2 is a perfect number of cookies to maintain your boyish figure.

  • Why is Elmo dressed like Run DMC?

  • LOL!! I JUST WATCHED THIS TODAY WITH THE EPISODE IT WAS IN FOR AN HOUR JUST TO SEE MY FAVORITE CHARACTER , THE COOKIE MONSTER, AND THIS IS THE ONLY THING HE WAS FEATURED IN!! >:( D:

  • Is it me, or does Elvis look like he doesn't want to be there?

  • @EvilUncleFrank

    it's definitely you. he is obviously enjoying himself here. And who wouldn't quite honestly? :D

  • @golceva Upon further inspection, you are correct.

  • すごい組み合わせ。好きだなあ〜。

  • Elvis Costello is still alive?

    Man I'm out of the times.

  • @jr52990 Guess you don't read Rolling Stone or have watched Spectacle or search him on Google....

  • @mrgb46 Dude... nobody Reads Rolling Stone anymore.

  • @jr52990 Yeah,tell that to all the subscribers..

  • This is fucking fantastic and Elvis Costello is still one of the best singer/songwriters of the 20th century

  • @fuck192ass -- according to your user name, you've fucked 192 guys in the ass. who's a what now?

  • funny that my kid will learn about elvis via elmo -- instead of via drugs like the rest of us did.

  • @skipintro LOL!

  • @skipintro guess I missed that one..

  • @skipintro Who's us? Speak for yourself, junkie.

  • @MuppetVoicesAndMore  Yes, exactly

  • i love this video so much.

  • Best song *ever*.

  • is that code?

  • I used to really like Elvis Costello... Now I LOVE him. Awesome. :) Apparently there are 41 red-two-eaters out there that don't like to be called monsters.

  • 41 people had their red twos eaten

  • Love it!

  • I believe that this is the first use of "cowabunga" in an Elvis song - am I right?

  • I want 2, you've had your fun you don't get well no more.

  • Comment removed

  • Losing 2 is just a memory. Memories don't mean that much to me.

  • This is perfection. 

  • Awesome vid!

  • i thought sesamestreet got hacked.....

  • ...ate your red. lols.

  • And the time of this video? 2:22.

  • Ew...ate yer red WHAT ? !!!

  • 31 people can't coun to ten. They should go to kindergarden with Elvis Costello

  • Certainly one of my favorites. I thought this was a funny, and very educational video! You can't count to 10 without a "2"!

  • Elvis rules.

  • "monster went and eat my red 2"<--------thats what she said

  • Worse than getting Rick rolled

  • @jmancini1234 Someone didn't hear the Friday song yet.

  • why has no one questioned why these idiots are asking for porn from the sesame street channel when they could go about half the internet 'round for it in other places? btw this version of the song is adorable...

  • @oHelmslyoRisesAgain You might want to check a newspaper. Their account was hacked the other day. I think they got it all.

  • HIPSTER ELMO!

  • How do I buy this song?

  • I love Elvis' impish grin at this start of the song, and I bet that Dexter and Frank are loving that they can see and hear their Dad on Sesame Street!

  • DAMMIT. I HAD MY PANTS DOWN AND EVERYTHING.

  • fiz um funk da dengue legal...não taão bom quanto este mais ta legal!

  • When I first saw the screenshot I thought it was Doctor House (Hugh Laurie)...

  • I lost my red tube :(

  • Oh dear, someone managing the sesame street channel left the wrong thumbnail.

  • Im glad your videos are back my daughter loves em!!!
