Classic Sesame Street - Listen to the Bells (Complete English Version)

[wileyk209zback]

Heh, how about a scene in the song about fire alarm bells? I can see it now...

"In the middle of the school day, we had a fire drill..." *fire alarm rings and red light blinks*

"The alarm bells tell us to leave with no frill!" *alarms continue*

"If we didn't have a fire alarm in here,

we'd all be toast if a real fire was near!

Oh the bells... listen to the bells!

Ding-a-ling, hear them ring,

everybody listen to the bells!"

Great song, especially the horn section during the chorus...I remember seeing this on SS sometime around 1990, and it's been stuck in the back of my head for years since. :-)

I remember driving to Kindergarten. Back in the 80s KQED San Francisco simulcasted Sesame Street on 88.7FM. I remember singing this song in class and my teacher got somewhat annoyed and sent me to the principal. So I sang it and the principal laughed and sent me back to class. LOL. I met Jim Henson as a kid and sang the song to him and he loved it!!!

That guy sounds like Rowlf ("Nine lights", anyone?)....Henson didn't use that kind of voice on Sesame Street very often, but I'd know it anywhere.

So, all of two seconds makes this "complete"? Who honestly cares about two seconds of them moving back and forth with no music?

@MarshalGrover Because This Is The Full Version
