@tucsoncowgirl you are really effing stupid, one the beatles did not own the rights to their music when this was released in 1981, Michael Jackson did. and they paid to use it anyway. Paul McCartney even told them he loved the cover.
You are correct. It's Chris Cerf's "Thinking of U" with Richard Hunt again on lead vocals. Going back to "Letter B", did you know Chris and the team of Sesame Street weren't sued by the original group? I didn't.
i had this recorded on vhs! i miss tv from back then ..... if ther was a way 2 bring back the ty from then w/ out making tv worse id do it! im shure alot of pp miss that kind of stuff 2
That song is one of my most very favorites! Thanks ever so very much for posting this! I LOVE this song! BTW, if the letter people ever made guest appearances on Sesame Street, I bet Mr. B would enjoy this song. Especially since it's about the letter that makes his sound which starts with the same sound that starts "Beautiful Buttons".
Its stuff like this that'll bring a tear to your eye, in a happy way. You remember your childhood and then you remember how amazing of a band The Beatles were.
That was truly WONDERFUL!! Sesame Street should've kept the Beetles because they have great songs and music that lots of people love, are really cute, and have awsome musical talent!
I always get chills when I listen to this song, and the album version in particular. In some ways, it's even more beautiful to me than the original tune - apologies to the Beatles.
3 people were hoping for LMNOP. :(

Yes, they did. It was called "Thinking Of U", written by Chris Cerf and lead by Richard Hunt.
