Sesame Street - A Very Simple Dance To Do

[americanidol434]

i remember this

[catfeathers101]

Oh my gosh :O I remember doing this as a really little kid! It's so cool remembering things you had forgotten about (All I remembered was the bat song)

[pigletlh2o]

I had my kids summer camp do this it is nice

[stevenscottoddballz]

Didn't David do a version of this? I THINK one of the things he did was "feed the chickens".

[MarioZoneAlt69]

@stevenscottoddballz David did sing this song on an album, but I don't think there was a line about chickens.

My daughter is almost 11, and she loved watching this video on vhs when she was a toddler. She knew this dance by heart, and would dance her little heart out. I can't believe I still know the words to it! Oh how I miss those days!

[Beatzami1]

I'm the kid in the yellow...this is hillarious. we had to do this segment over and over because mike kept messing up. thanks for the flashback

[mooveez4U]

@Beatzami1 to tell you the truth i hate mike so much. theres just something about him that annoys me... and i taught my baby sister that he's a "meanie" so now whenever she watches "Dance Along", she points to him and says "meanie!!"

[Pikachuiscool]

Mike was cool while he lasted. :)

my friend wants to dance in a nightclub tonight so he googled simple dance and found this youtube video. He's practicing it now...

[cooliecool19]

I was in the episode where Jason Alexander did this song, and I found the tape last week and was wondering what it was and when I put the tape in all I thought when I watched it was "Omg why am I dancing at George from Seinfeld's feet!?" It was all the more bizarre because I couldn't remember it at all!

[Cats29]

@cooliecool19 can you post the segment ?

[HeyButtahfly]

I'm so glad this got posted! I remember this from when I was reeeeeeeeally little! :)

[LauraMugno]

"If I Were a Rich Man" will always be my favorite of yours, Ward! ;)

[TiannaEliza]

that guy used to scare me:S

[sok217]

Wow, I know the kid in the yellow turtle neck sweater!

[sadowling]

Does anyone know how I can get a copy of this song on CD or tape?

[musicbox193]

@sadowling i know this song is on the album "The Bert and Ernie Singalong" but i don't think that album's available, unfortunatly.

[mrbest27]

@musicbox193 I had that album. I listened to that track over and over as a kid. I even put it on a cassette tape and used it for an activity for my students when I was a school teacher.

[Rudy61287]

@musicbox193 You can probably find it on Amazon.com used.

The "Mike" in this video looks like former game show host and comedian Mike O'Malley of CBS' Yes, Dear.

[lawdawgzs]

I'm not sure I've heard that one before.  I usual get either Michael J. Fox or Treat Williams. When I lived in LA I was on an elevator and someone thought I really WAS Michael J. Fox. - Ward, aka "Mike" from Sesame Street.

[Wheeloffortunefan999]

who the heck is treat williams?

[thisredheadrocks]

I love how the little girl pulls at the other one to get in line and gives "the look" 0:26

[ridethewind95]

@thisredheadrocks We love that part too! The little girl who gives the look is actually my wife. She was on SS for 8 years. She always defends herself by saying she was just pulling her back to "her mark". Haha!

Cue to sesame street put this on your 40th aniversery dvd
