Classic Sesame Street - Monster Disco!

[zangazoo2007]

This brings a tear to my eye. Since I was born in 1975, I remember this song fondly, and boogieing in and out the door (and for more!). Sesame Street has changed so much since these days, and is now tailored to a much younger audience. The CTW really needs to get back to its roots. Maybe do what Boomerang did and create a "classic" SS schedule (from what I hear the classic DVDs of SS are missing many of the segments many of us remember). Just an idea.

[redfox409]

Who is that monster saying excuse me is this the home of sesame street fever?

[ironiedusort]

The backup singers are the best LOL

[dj2bklyn]

gota love Sesame Street

[Dnrothx]

Iiiiiiiiiiiinn for more! Heh...another great memory.

[fivebearrugs]

I don't remember these monsters, save Frazzle, but they are on the cover of my SS Monsters! album and in a Sesame Street book for the number 6 :)

[demonfan4life]

This is when Sesame Street was so fun to watch.Its not the same anymore.Thanks for posting this!LMAO!

[zangazoo2007]

Bob (Bob McGrath) said in an interview that the target audience for Sesame Street was changed from ages 5-7 to a much younger group of 2-4.  Which is probably why Elmo became so popular for younger children.

Being in my early 30s, I remember many great sketches, and songs that really are missed these days in SS. Like this one, I soooo remember dancing to the beats and laughing when the monster got smushed behind the "IN" door. Ahhh those were the days.

[SkyfireTheFox]

This 70s-esque disco segment ran well into the 80s. I remember it!

[razzie33]

This was one of my favorite Sesame songs when I was a baby!

[ra70s]

Wow the youtube site has been EXTREMELY slow for the past 2 days; the site won't load at all. and then when it finally does(after about 1/2 an hour), some videos won't play; they just hang and won't load. some play right away, some won't(this vid is one that won't).

[razzie33]

ok cool then it isn't just me and & pc -

[JessicaAlbasBoobies]

Notice the slight mistakes in when the IN and OUT signs light with the music? LOL

I also remember this still being broadcast on Sesame Street in the 80s. This and the "I'm A Baby (Rock Me)" segments are my two all-time favourites

[mjk2831]

Oh my God! I was born in 1978 and as a little kid in the 80's this was still playing on sesame street and I used to run around the house singing in boogie in out the door! Thanks for posting you made this 30 year old happy!

[buttholebzerker]

HOW CUTE!!!!

[Jedinerf]

yeah that blue monster with the yellow horns is Alwayz at the Disco!

[mightycowhero]

look at that blue horned monster go.

[ajwrangler1977]

I sure hope that poor monster finds a good after-party.

[sahem62896]

I remember this like it appeared on TV yesterday!

[nyucisuci]

I worked at a night club in West Hollywood and all night long I had to try to direct traffic in or out the right door much to the chagrin of drunk guests! Ahh the memories. There really were confused monsters being swept along with the tide of wasted dancing humanity. Fabulous.

[queez11ciara]

this is so funny !!

[retaux]

they wouldn't allow this song today..IN..OUT

[AVDJ]

fun.

[techboy1998]

This clip has been emblazoned in my memory for 25 years. I often find myself randomly singing this song from time to time. I'm SO nostalgic!

[shydmples]

Sesame Street Fever...lol I love it!

[MrBell81]

This takes me back to my fourth year on this planet....and has made me so goddamn happy to hear this again....

[Kattykat0624]

groovy lol i wish they would put all the awesome classic sesame street in a dvd collection

[booth2710]

Anyone remember "you make me mad, very very angry"? ...

[ScratStitch]

That poor monster...

I still find this funny when I'm 20. :D

[paisleypower30]

I'm 33 and it's hilarious

[demonfan4life]

This is when Sesame Street was cool.They mixed comical with educational.Far out song!

[InformedChoice]

Where can I get a suit like that??

[booth2710]

Here's one for little Kenia !!

[razzie33]

another one of my all time favorite Sesame songs! Boogie on in!

[jefftoe]

LOL Sesamee Street Fever

[DragonLord1975]

2:02 a monster goes out the IN door, then realizes its mistake at 2:08.

[SexyGirl79]

I just saw it too.

[pompartyusa]

oh yeah! i just caught that!

[MoochyMooch]

I remember this! I loved it when I was little. You don't know how long I was looking for this.

[Babe5677]

I love this. I liked it when all the monsters crushed this monster on the outside of the out door. I like it when he sings in for more when the song and disco is over. Then he sings out the door so funny.

[bwgary]

This was probably the best disco song they ever did on SS.

[lightning116]

Ah, I remember this. And I loved how that guy kept getting nailed by the door. This brings back a lot of memories.

[ghostchantxx]

sawing 14s, This still came into the 90s like 1990,1991 ?

[ghostchantxx]

Is this for sure from 1977 ?

What was that skit that prceeded this?

[shirtcorcus]

The skit before this appears to be "KING Minus". Everything he touches with his bare hands disappears in a cloud of smoke. Carelessly he wipes his own forehead at the end and just......disappears.

[ghostchantxx]

1977 this originated.

IN OUT That's what the song is all about!

[ghostchantxx]

The New Year's Eve disco.

[ChocolateCurves]

Oh my goodness I used to love this osng so much...oh the sweet memories.

[LardInATubeSock]

Ha Ha, I haven't seen this since the 70s! I used to sing this song and people would have NO IDEA of what I was singing! MY favourite!

[mightyfilm]

Is Frank Oz doing the vocals of this by any chance? Something sounds slightly like Miss Piggy.

[shirtcorcus]

Nope. The voice of the monster is Jerry Nelson. The voice is like a less hip and more nerdy version of Floyd Pepper. Or like Sherlock Hemlock without saying "Egad!" Both played by Nelson.

[seheart]

I used to sing this and people would think I was crazy. What is that from1!?? I tell them Sesame Street and they would be all.. "you're nuts". I loved this song.

[sohpstar]

That was hilarious I liked the cute little brown monster when he came in the door.. :)

[lisvender]

I used to feel so sorry for the poor clueless monster. Why didn't anyone help him?

[HypnoToad72]

Because that would take away from their dancin' time! :)

[MtFujiInMyPantsSUGOI]

i used to feel sorry for him too! this one would bum me out when i was a kid. well, the disco monsters were probably all coked up...you know how self-involved party people are

[djbreeduk]

crazy shit lol sesame street wasnt as good as the muppet show tho,but this had me laughing my socks off,gonna play this next time i have sex lol

[cherrystar]

This one had me laughing my ass off! It still amazes me how Sesame Street isn't nearly this good anymore. Too much damn Elmo.

[oddzerozero]

i remember this! it was so fun!

[kimberleydawe]

It doesn't get much cuter than this!! I like when he gets trampled behind the door!!!

[wattamack4]

I could watch and dance to this at the same time!

[bigbeautifuldoll1977]

LOL Oh my goodness! I remember this from when I was a kid thanks for posting it

[TerryT1976]

A cute and hilarious clip! ROTFL! Thanks for posting this cool retro clip!

[foxxyloxx]

I love that they incorperated the era in their sketches. You hardly see anything half this creative on ss anymore; that the adults can find humor in. It's a friggin tradegy.

But yeah. My sis and I were *petrafied* of this when we were little. Why? I have no idea. Maybe the disco.. or the extreme zoom ins [which I loveeeeee!]? Whatever the reason, I'm glad we were, cuz I wouldn't have remembered this at all, and it's brilliant!

[Xone7]

GOD, I LOVE THIS! This is incredible!!

[disneynut06]

Cool sketch.

I also figured out that Frank Oz is probably one of the singers of the song--I recognized his Miss Piggy-ish female voice.

[UncleHeavy90210]

It's Jerry Nelson.

[eggspoonfly]

love the song remember this one

[eyeh8cbs]

I just barely remember this one. GREAT song, too bad it wasn't on the Sesame Street Fever album.

[mindovrmatter]

I used to love this one on ss where the monster used to get crushed still makes me laugh good find

[1337vashfan]

Is it just me or does that green monster sound like Professor Frink from The Simpsons?

[rsynth75]

me and sis use to bug off this one when we were kidz!!! thanx for postin this!!!

[Gojogongua]

Check the horned monster's dance when he comes "in" the first time. Rockin' it! I searched this one because I remembered it from my childhood.  Yeah, and the song is actually good. Thanks!

[foxxyloxx]

lol.. I damn near died laughing!

Also, look at him at 0:55 when he gets right in front of the camera all Soul Train like. rotfl.

[itsjustmeandmycat]

Yeah...that makes me bust a gut every time I see it. *lol*

[muzzyvh]

Sesame Street+70s disco = Happiness!

[sundaeg1rl]

I agree, I feel all warm and fuzzy :-)

[glowworm2]

Once the poor green monster kept getting hurt I found this hysterical!I see Fragle and a familiar blue monster with fangs and horns that's used in many songs.

[StaceSesame]

i love the disco years in Sesame Street! lol the poor green monster kept getting trampled down by the other monsters. :D

[Kttx0283]

Instant Classic, Thank you 5 stars

[simon726]

OMG! I haven't seen this song in years! I can't get it out of my head!!!!

[brettsomers]

this is f@cking FABULOUS!  and the song is really kinda good, maybe the *sisters of sygma* did the vocals? love it!

[jeopardy60611]

I've got an idea. How about doing this sort of thing with an UP and DOWN escalator! The outcast muppet tries to go up the DOWN one and gets trampled.

[tpirman1982]

I haven't seen this one in years! Thanks a million!

Could ya' by any chance post that cat animation skit that came after this skit as we see the first screenshot at the end of this skit?

[Lectronimo]

Hope they're getting their hands stamped. Otherwise, this could be a very expensive night.

[brithgob]

TOTALLY forgot about this one! Thanks!
