What is the singer's name? (The character AND the performer.)

[ScareMeSexy71]

[TelephoneRock4ever]

This got a giggle out of me! I'll say that was Richard Hunt as the lead singer.

I wonder how the people filming this were able to stifle their laughter!

Foothills of Kansas? Ha! Kansas is flat as can be. Great opening joke.

[ChannelUmptyThree]

maybe the foothill was at the bottom of a speedbump somewhere? ;)

I'm so glad that I found this video!!! When I was 2 or 3 my parents recorded another cartoon on VHS for me and then I mischeviously recorded part of Sesame Street (with this song) over it. It cut back to the cartoon only half-way through this song, so I've never heard the whole thing until now. Thank you!!!

[trinidangerpuppy]

Oh I had loved this one as a kid......it always made me laugh!

Yesteryear Sesame Street was the best!

I will FOREVER be a fan !

[zacandtaylorrule]

I somewhat remember this. This must have been in the 70's. I like it. Those muppets should be put in an institution.

[muppetfan33]

I don't know why, but this guy kind of reminds me of Jerry Reed. Is this who he's trying to be?

[dogkelp]

@muppetfan33

I'd say more Roger Miller!

[muppetfan33]

@dogkelp Really? Why?

[dogkelp]

@muppetfan33

The style's less poppy than Jerry's '70s records and the speak-sung interjections are reminiscent of many of Miller's classic novelties, e.g. "Dang Me," "Do-Wacka-Do," and "Chug-a-Lug."

[SuperNightOwl]

Best Sesame Street clip ever! My favorite when I was 4.

[dogdoo4brains]

This song made me cry . . . From laughing so hard!

[dorourke105]

2:03 to 2:38 I started to laugh like one of those people.

[classicssmfan]

This can also be seen on the DVD, "Kid's Favorite Country Songs".

[jonnytbirdzback]

Are you sure it wasn't Polly Darton's version?

[MarshalGrover]

No, this is the one on DVD.

[classicssmfan]

Trust me! It was the original version. Read the review on Muppet Central, or just buy the DVD if you do not believe me.

[jonnytbirdzback]

Oh. When I clicked on its link on muppet wiki, they didn't talk much about the original version (except for some album releases). Thanks for the info.

[MarshalGrover]

I've been waiting for someone to post this!

[classicssmfan]

This was one of the clips I wanted to post up here, but then again, I do not have the technology.
