OMG!!! i've been trying to find this for a while...i used to sing along with this when i was little...brings back some nice memories...thanks so much for posting! :-)
I've been trying to find this for ages ... thanks so much for posting it! I was so surprised and happy when my search finally found what I was looking for! I never thought I'd hear it again, and I'm especially amazed that I still enjoy it as much as I did in my childhood!
1:46 - 1:56 Richard Hunt was having trouble keeping the bib on the Muppet so you'll notice one of the babies going down for a second so Richard can fix the hat quickly. LOL ;)
I agree - if I EVER have kids, I will show them Sesame street by way of Youtube, not by way of PBS, so that they may enjoy the same level of fun that our generation was given.
seeing this for the secound time, oddly enough helps me remember the very first time that remember seeing this skit; it was around the time that i was just finishing preeschool or in kindergarten.
I hadn't watched Sesame Street in over 20 years. I had a baby last July and have been watching it with him now for the past several monthes. I can't believe how much it's changed. Not that it isn't still great for kids. But I would love to download a bunch of these older skits and put them on DVD's so my baby can watch them.
I totally remember watching this one from when I was a kid.
You know, it may not be a fashionable remark, but there's something about that baby's attitude that makes me think of Harold Skimpole from "Bleak House".
Oh COME ON MAN! What's your problem? This song is pretty hip! Esspecially Frank Oz's, Jerry Nelson's and Richard Hunt's performance in it. One of the best in my book. But then again, that's just mine out of so many other opinions out there.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I used to sing this song all the time when I was a kid. It's probably been 20 years since I last heard this. Talk about putting a smile on my face :)
Ah, so THIS is it! For the longest time, I remembered seeing a segment with a singing baby in a high chair and a mirror ball on the show...but could never remember what the song was about. Thanks!
The song is now on my MP3 player. It's embarassing just how much notalga kiddie stuff I've got on there. I also have Kermit's "On My Pond", as well as music from local TV show called Readalong. I always liked it when they made children's music nice and catchy and not too patronizing. I may not be a parent yet, but when I do I am going to show them all the stuff I had when I was a kid.
I don't remember this one, just the tune. In fact I remember running up to a boy and singing "you're a baby, waa waa, goo goo, nah nah nah nah....." and I always thought I had come up with that tune myself! :-) It's funny how stuff sticks in your head!
Does anyone remember one about a baby who rocks out in his crib when he should be sleeping? I can't find that clip.
I love this. Everytime it came on I ran towards the TV singing and dancing. I wonder how they got the rocking chair to sparkle with so many sparkles. I love the baby when she sings it's so cute. Everytime this song finished I cried and said oh again again. So cool.
This song stuck in my head forever. It's a musician's world to remember the melody and I'm so glad that this was posted. As soon as there was a piano in the house, I played it at 3 or 4! Thanks for posting this classic!
"I'm a baby... ROCK ME." I never understood what she was saying! I used to ask my mother why she sang, "I'm a baby, baby, bop be!" My mother didn't know either. Our TV in the 80s had terrible sound, though.
I used to think it was "Boppy"...that was what I called my baby bottle when I was 1 or 2 yrs. old. Hahaha, maybe it was those crazy "Bermuda" television sets...remember those things?
THANK YOU SO MUCH!. I CRIED AS SOON AS IT CAME ON. I didn't think anyone remembered this. I am a musician and I remember as a child thinking about how great the singing was. You took me back! Thanks again.
Wow I totally remember this one from over 25 yrs ago! This has got to be one of the very best Sesame Street segments from the good 'ole days. Excellent singer, really cute and funny muppets. Gosh if a baby really could sing like that she would no doubt win American Idol!
YEs! I loved watching this muppet skit on Sesame Street. Everytime it came on, I would try to sing along or dance to the music. I still like the music. It's cute!
The whole reason I came to YouTube was in hopes of seeing this skit again. Thank You!!!!
One of my all time favorite SS moments! Excellent song, hilarious muppeteering, especially the back-up babies and the high chair -- and that disco-y bridge punctuated with the ecastatic "YES!" is to die for. I loved this song as a kid... and still do!
Oh man i everytime i heard this i just had to sing along. Thanks sawing14s for posting this. I knew i saw it on here but couldn't find it till i saw your list. Awsome!!!
My sister used to do this one with some of her My Little Pony toys. She'd have one of the baby ponies stuck in her Newborn Twins' set's bassinet, singing lead, and her Newborn Twins doing the background voices. And every time I see this, I think of what she did!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! THIS is the clip that I actually came searching for on YouTube initially, and then got sucked into the whole classic Sesame clips. I nearly cried when I saw this posted.
During the final verse, when the 2 backup singers are in the silvery-glittered high chair, the backup singer muppet on the right, her hat slips off and ducks down to try to put it back on.
YOu know I always noticed that one on the right was messing underneath the chair...as I kid I just figured she was figeting and stuff, part of the act!
I was looking for this clip not to long ago, maybe 2 months, cool that you finally posted it. Like you mentioned, amazing noboby posted it before you, this clip is classic from the early 80's.
I forgot about this one.
