I can't help but wonder: I think the first time I saw this was shortly after Jim Henson died. Was this taped immediately after his death, thus explaining the absence of Ernie? Sure on the farm, Farmer Ernie says "Goodbye", but that could have been pre-recorded from an earlier Jim Henson skit.
My guess is that Ernie was angry at "The Count" for keeping him awake all night with all of "The Count's" loud counting in the skit where "The Count" slept over in Ernie and Bert's apartment. So maybe Ernie wanted to sleep over at "The Counts" castle and bother "The Count" some way so he wouldn't be able to fall asleep this time.
That's the story of Bert's blanket! I have been looking for this forever. One of my fave Sesame Street songs. Loved the girl sheep, she was belting it out back there.
Yeah, it's one of those different voices Kevin doesn't use very much. He used a similar one for the short lived 90's charachter Kingston Livingston the 3rd.
@LincolnHeightsrocks Well, this is a long shot, but have you any idea who played the statue in the ernie and bert pyramid sketch? No one seems to know for sure. The general opinion seems to be Jerry Nelson, but I just don't know.
Im pretty sure that was Bob Payne. He also performed Telly in his first episode he ever appeared in when he was the Television Monster. That one can also be seen here on youtube. If yoiu watch that clip and compare the voices you'll see what I mean. Also because this skit was made during the same time that episode aired is another reason why I strongly think this.
I love this and those sheep are really talented singers...AND they are sooo and smart! This is one VERY educational video...I never knew how blankets were made....Thanks Bert and Sheep!
Bert and Earnie are two of the Characters on sesame street that can come up with some of the original, unique and best songs of all time in Sesame Street History!
