sesame street - its not easy being green

[verkaikwilliams]

Do you what's fun? Kermit singin rihanna or Bruno mars songs! I don't know if there are some peeps who do that, but i'ts fun:p

[smspilecki]

Yes, although Henson didn't write it.

[cmjpgreen]

Questlove brought me here and I thank him

[vilameat]

Can't see it being that easy being green

[CheshireGryn]

I don't believe it was an identity crisis at all. I, myself - am green. Kermie was trying to relate (in the nicest possible way) that it's okay to be different.

[TheStormthrash]

put a smile on my face

[Shalaojp1]

This is the song that Big Bird sang at Jim Hensen's memorial... So beautiful yet so sad...

[thehyenas4857able]

some one said a** at 0:00.

[yayatomo]

made my mum cry hahahah

[alvaretoyeah]

i was listening to gorillaz

[medichistes]

People who comes here via Glee, apperciate it more, cause we didnt just wanted to listen to Glee, we wanted to hear the original version, if Glee wasnt here, people like me, in which country The Muppets had never been famous, couldnt listen to this song, or knew this awesome show

[yummybeefyboy]

It's probably not that easy being green

[SalvatiPamantul]

@yummybeefyboy oh yes!

[lildwayne21]

Didn't the Muppets one sing the grass ain't always greener on the other side of the fence? Does anyone have that video

[piano123player2]

i loove damian

[domkowaa]

Or white ; )

[domkowaa]

Who likes to Kermit's paw up! ;)



[MissCartoonist]

Oh man, I used to watch this when I was little but I never understood the song... damn!

[TheActionSpot]

Green is NOT a creative color.

[SalvatiPamantul]

@TheActionSpot why?



[TheActionSpot]

@SalvatiPamantul watch Dont Hug Me, Im Scared.

[shotgunjohny]

Am i the only one who is upset that this is The Muppets, but it says Sesame Street in the title?

[Alchaeachu]

@shotgunjohny Kermit was on Sesame Street when he sang this song.

[marchm78]

i just switched from N*E*R*D - Hot n' Fun Ft. Nelly Furtado (Nero Remix) to this . . . and its totally worth it :) 

[IvanAmighty]

Its not easy being black.

[Sallysdumbys]

@IvanAmighty Or white! :D

[ARzielke]

They should play re-runs of this show on the disney channel since they own the rights, its better than that crap they show today on TV.

[Zagzyes12]

My childhood brought me here

[TheKCProductions101]

RIP Jim Henson.. :/

[CaliPosted]

vote for me if your watching this still in 2011

[matt141989]

My favourite colour is green

[clv717]

jay electronica sent me

[drviolentracism]

poor kermit... suffers from PTSD after being orally raped by a chimp

[webbugt]

The muppet show and sesame street made some of my fondest childhood memories. Thank you, Kermit :D

[DrOlliefish]

I came here because i feel like a loser right now. Thanks Kermie.

[angieoc9]

glee cutie damain

[Putmalk]

came here after the jets lost today. smh.

[ChickenConPolloHD]

@Putmalk ha

[hpgwdthefan]

I came here because I had the Arrested Development "It Aint't Easy Being Brown" stuck in my head and I decided to hear the original.

[stronggirl1231]

my brother has a shirt that says it ain't easy being green.

[KernalStuckInMyTeeth]

IT AIN EASY BEIN BROWN! IT AINT EASY BEIN WHITE!

[LittleLeeHere]

...what's his appeal?

[KiDCuDiBrah]

It's expensive to stay green..

[littlemissshimmer101]

when i was little this would scare the crap out of me!:D idk why.

[Missappletoffee]

omg how sad!! so touching tears to my eyes!!! ;OOOOO but i kinda thing he has emotional issues a lil with the color green! xD

[purplelynn35]

Laser: Actually Kermit started his life as a Green Pea coat according to what I've read.

[Korikta]

thumbs up if you came here by glee

[ReviewTiger]

@Korikta Anyone who comes here VIA glee doesn't appreciate it the way the others do!

[HaldoChan]

@ReviewTiger Not true! Some Glee fans like the Muppets too, you know!

[ClintandAbner]

Anyone else high?

[bryncomeaux]

the soul is inherant in space time and reality the trick is just to notice and belive and most of all to love! It will love you back.

[tubbingtons]

this is why i love the color green.

[SmonEgroV]

:)..... Just Wonderful !!!!!

[hentsuperm2]

I just love love love Kermit~

[LesMiserablesPhantom]

Seseame Street is not the same anymore without the muppets.

[TheForceFollower94]

@LegoPhilMan Kermit the Frog was a regular on Sesame Street before Jim Henson passing in 1990. After that he rarely appeared on Sesame Street.

[monkeynim1]

Its not sesame street it is the Muppets

[TheForceFollower94]

@monkeynim1 Kermit the Frog was a regular on Sesame Street before Jim Henson's passing in 1990. After that he rarely appeared.

[minikineko1]

@monkeynim1 The muppets were on sesame street too

[rc100692]

@monkeynim1 Look up Kermit on Sesame Street. A Muppet is a puppet created by Jim Henson. Originally merchandise for SS said Featuring Jim Henson's Muppets. Today Disney owns The Muppets, but from the 2001 of the sale of the SS characters from the Jim Henson Company to Sesame Workshop, the characters on Sesame Street are still Muppets. The credits now say The Muppets of Sesame Street, and acknowledge Disney's The Muppets Studio owns to the trademark Muppet.

[monkeynim1]

I ALSO LIKE THE SAME SONG BUT BY THE GLEE Cast and that guy weres Green all the time

BUT NOT ANY MORE. It started when a girl that he was a person that brens gold to people.

Bye?!?!?!? Bye!?!?!?!?!?!

[mangosnake]

Don't worry Kermit. Green is awesome !

[Emokitty870]

sesame street?? ITS THE MUPPETS!

[MatHrtxC]

@Emokitty870 You are either 12 years old... or a complete idiot

[TheForceFollower94]

@Emokitty870 Kermit the Frog was a regular on Sesame Street before Jim Henson's passing in 1990. After that he rarely appeared on the show.

[SagaciousSilence]

"And I think it's what I want to be"

Notice how Kermit said "I THINK it's what I want" instead of "IT IS what I want." Kermit is still unsure if he's content. The song is gradually empowering, but it does not end in a complete victory over his identity crisis. Henson wrote brilliant lyrics because Kermit doesn't entirely accept his status. He hopes to be content with his status, but it's unsure and not certain. This song is brilliant especially for that reason. Life can never be perfect.

[voodo133]

I used to be green...then I took an arrow to the knee

[meatballeatter]

It not easy being green is right

[TpriceOfficial97]

GREEN IS GREAT!

[alevsener2]

The Muppets <3

[nautbijker]

I have this song from a Apple ad, i miss steve :(

[rtuckerivey]

@RastaryanMarley96 It's simply about how the muppets met and there's a man who wants to catch Kermit and make him into another frog. Kermit, Fozzie, and some other Muppets go to Hollywood. The ending is actually quite happy.

[Gdigger10]

Why my throat like... shifts though listening to kermit... my mom says Hey can you come here? I say yeah hold on and im like

Holy shit i sound like kermit

[Maximumstrength007]

I love Kermit! Bring him back to Sesame Street!

[DrPhilMusic]

@Maximumstrength007 Forget modern sesame street, just bring back the old sesame street.

[Lillyrose820]

Man:Listen Pea its not easy being a person but we have to live with it don't we so stop complaining

Lady:Oh Kermit I love you I will not let that man call you a pea.I like green I think its sexy.

Man: oh no please don't leave me lady!

Kermit:Piss off shes mine now *snogs lady* *takes to bedroom*

Man :*hears groaning* oh well I will shag air. *shags air*

I like this vid.

[educationalnut]

Sesame street is so great

[iSing888]

@educationalnut I prefer The Muppets I mean thas why i came here this is The Muppets

[Gummybear4444]

@educationalnut Seriously? SERIOUSLY!? This isn't sesame street. This is the Muppets.

[jvanbib]

@Gummybear4444 actually it is sesame street. Also created by Jim Henson.

[Gummybear4444]

@jvanbib I'm pretty sure that Kermit the Frog is a muppet.

[tunafish369]

he's so right

[RastaryanMarley96]

is it true the muppets movie is really sad? my friend told me he cried

[GNRROX2234]

@RastaryanMarley96 Yes, it is quite sad at the end. Though it gets happy if you watch the credits. :)

[WFPOfficial]

You should all go listen to Andrew Birds Cover of this



[wrestlingmoves100]

Listen kermit the frog changed the world with this song PERIOD!

[13mononoke]

ITS RENEEEEEEEEEEE! No Kermit T.T

[MissPinkey4356]

I love Kermit the frog he was like my best friend when i was a kid :) And i know i am going to watch the mupets Its not tht easy being green but Kermit you rock the green :) :D 

[VictoryBacon]

I came hear because I typed in green...

[xMoji]

I'm here because my 70 year old art teacher would sing this randomly throughout class...

[MJfan4ever123456]

@Laser110 Steve Jobs was way more genious than Jim Henson or whatever. Actuay,why are the muppets so popular? Don't get it.

[TheShaolinDonut]

@MJfan4ever123456 Nice grammar. Also why don't you go somewhere else if you wish pay tribute to Steve Jobs.

[gaby082695]

i love glee!!... theres no need to hate

[GondorLadyGwen]

Kermit's my homeboy. <3 <3 Just saw the new Muppet's movie. It was wonderful.

[pikhatu]

Wth? Glee covered this?

[GondorLadyGwen]

@pikhatu yeah... it was actually a nice cover. it made me remember this and i ran back to watch this a hundred times.

[girlwiththeorangehat]

Awww Kermit I love you!! :,)

[christron330]

@thewindgypsi glee is not a who more like a what its a show often seen on fox news channel

[herban123]

glee is for faggots

[WOLFatRIFT]

TROOLOLOLOL

[WOLFatRIFT]

whats glee

[deadpoolhulk]

so there is more comments saying "don't talk about gle" then there are talking about glee? does anyone else see the loop of annoying youtube posts here or is it just me?

[PJSkins26]

Glee did this song? WHERE'S MY BARTH BUCKET?

[TheWindGypsi]

Who's Glee??  I really wanted to see this b/c it brings me back to old days when Seseme Street was original.

[BrianWiiProductions]

@TheWindGypsi Glee is a Fox Network show.

[rainbowlovetran]

Glee sucks, but Damian McGinty doesn't

[Laser110]

All this talk recently of the genius of Steve Jobs. Steve was never able to take a green sock ,some ping pong balls and give it a soul. Jim Henson was a genius! 

[tzoyia1]

@Laser110 Probably the best summary of Jim Henson's genius

[DonKaranIsBack]

@Laser110 i cant give a single fuck about steve handjobs... i never liked apple xd

[ReviewTiger]

@Laser110 Steve Jobs took LSD and inspired the Macintosh. A computer which changed the way we use things today. Jim Henson took LSD and came up with a talking frog. I love Kermit. But Steve Jobs takes the cake.

[itamar24399]

i love kermit,so FUCK GLEE!!!

[MrBillykane12]

The muppet movie brought me here

[SBN35]

Green is my favorite color

[Sk8rgal12]

Damian Mcgnity sings it better :) and heyy little kids stop swearing you are not cool

[countchunkula]

I'm five years old and FUCK GLEE.

[sudmalis100]

I wish I was green

[krnhorang85]

glee sucks

[bluegreenred5]

Glee didn't bring me here, (even though it IS the best show on earth), Damian McGuinty brought me here. :) -3

[TheOzzyGoat]

-3333*

[TheOzzyGoat]

I have green hair -333

[jonaticlove]

@TheOzzyGoat Seriously? OMG! Thats awesome :3 i want to dye my hair to green, do you know how long it takes? ^-^

[HendoCrescendo]

fuck glee

[Drforrester31]

Fuck Glee. It didn't take an overblown lameass TV show to make me appreciate a true genius' work

[shecyramj]

Life kind of sucks if your any color than white but its ok I like being black

[yusz04]

KERMIT!-Wait a second, why the hell does it say sesame street!?!?

[metsman511]

@yusz04 cause the muppets were originally part of sesame street.

[InsideTheMirror]

Can I go to one fucking song without a bunch of sheep asking for thumbs up because they watch Glee.

[Nanaman12345]

@InsideTheMirror They need thumbs DOWN for watching that "Glee" shit.

[Nanaman12345]

@InsideTheMirror They deserve thumbs DOWN for watching "Glee."

[katejude828]

This is much better than glee because kermit is great

[MsBubblespurple]

The muppets scare me but I loovvee Kermit

[TheWiseGuy784]

I think some of us can relate a bit to "being green". Sometimes, we wonder why we "blend in" and get "passed over" because we aren't like everyone else. But, then, we realize that the few of us that don't blend in are the ones that stand out the most, and can be "big like an ocean, or important like a mountain, or tall like a tree."

Maybe it's not so bad being green, after all. :)

[AmandaMarissaBieber]

I personally like damian mcginty singing this more but you have to respect the originals!

[Osnapitzisa]

i saw this on glee but i saw this before and personally hated glee version

[PapagenoJuan2]

It's not easy being Mormon :(

[Danomite94]

like if glee didn't bring you here just because the muppets are awesome

[emilymadriz]

The muppets were guests on the sesame street show the only one that was more presnt on both shows was kermit the frog. Muppets were created first as part of sesame street then got their own show once studies found kids under age of 5 loved them. That is why some people think of sesame street first; actually this song was on both.  Gotta love em!!

[firecrotch9219]

this isnt the sesame street its the muppet show u ass hat

[TheKateh12]

i remembered this song from reruns on sesame street when i was little...but i forgot about it until they sang it on glee..so im glad.cant wait for the new muppets movie. =]

[Djmankiewicz1]

green makes me blue =(

[b1l35m1]

like if glee brought u here



[tommenno]

If it brings others to Jim Henson; If they get to experience the same love and joy and understanding for the first time, then it's not all bad. It doesn't matter what brought them here.

Don't hate them, embrace them. The world is too full of anger, and Jim taught us better then that.

[assassinscreed112]

I blame glee for cancer

[mrtrollolalot]

we be rockin to this at parties gettin crunk n shit

[Kurtvicknair1]

his dad is dead

[ChaseCDJR]

I love Kermit, and Glee.

[theflavorsquints]

lol im pretty sure glee brought everyone here.I mean look how old this video is.really?:)

[justgheetha]

kermit !! i love you ...

want to bring u back home and make u mine !!

[LockridgeAtLarge]

Came here to hear this song, period...not because of another TV show.

[LockridgeAtLarge]

Came here to hear this song, period.

[taylorockon123]

lol i only went on this cause of the new guy on glee

[majorgleekster06]

just fuck off if you don't like glee!!! no one asked you whores!!!

[kop363]

@majorgleekster06 But this video isn't even about Glee, why should I fuck off? Your argument is invalid

[duranls1]

you know I watched the Muppets latest movie and LOVE IT, here I am 25 yrs old and watched it with my lil bro who is 6 yrs old, he didn't seem to like much the musical scenes *sigh* kids this days

although here can't blame them, with the cartoons they make today with less music and less sweet childhood memories like this one, what he will remember when he gets older? watched Kick Buttowski and Suite Life? unlike us who grow up with the Muppets and Hannah Barbera cartoons

[TheIcingFire]

Kermit the frog: "its not that easy being green."

Gecko: "But if you sign with geico you can save 15% or more on car insurance."

Kermit the frog: "Great i'll sign up then."

[stargaze97]

The moment the song starts, I couldn't stop smiling.

[renofunk]

Fuck glee, I came here because it's MOTHER FUCKING KERMIT THE FROG!

[somedoing]

Watching the parade.. Had to hear it with the words.

[OrfeoEnajenado]

Beautiful

[camicabri]

This song is so nice :)

[dukietheking]

As a child of the 70's when I was 4, I remember this as part of the beginning of the environmental & cultural movements...

[dukietheking]

Kermit you are the best

[juicyjoe97]

don't worry kermet, i feel you bro... it's not easy being yellow either

[RoseGirl1192]

Kermit and Jim. Taught me so much. <3

[micheliphone]

GLEE BRAZIL

[FLCLrox1]

don't like this because something like glee brought you here

like if a man and his frog were able make you think, make you feel, make you something more than what you might have been before

like for Jim ...
