[garganbrenna74]

Elton John + The Muppets = THE BEST THING EVER!!!!

[sweetpineapplelump]

wow, he's so lucky! Elton John got to play a gig with Dr Teeth and the Electric Mayhem ... :D

[RoPiDe]

cocodrile rock is perfect for the muppets!

[Naddycat]

:O)



[lilianarpb]

i miss this show was very funny

[s1earle]

If one doesn't like this (or the other segment with Yellow Brick Road) then they are what Hawke called 'bums'...

[trachloe]

He's just got better with age - having seen him for the 9th time last week in Australia - that said..he's always been amazing!

[musikismylife05]

Was this before or after he came out of the closet... I can't tell.

[Eivyll]

@musikismylife05

Before

[abdias214]

eu não gosto dele por que ele e um homosexual do diabo

[enet10]

I miss everything.

[elchicho25]

I miss this show.. Their ambiguous adult humor, the attention to detail and overall Great flow.. Tears...

[bubblyboo358]

Can't wait for that new muppet movie!!!!!

[bubblyboo358]

See ya later alligator lol!!!!!!!!!

[thx1191]

Elton John wore weird outfits before Lady Gaga, not to mention David Bowie too. 

[mileymchm]

He isnt lip syncing they have to put the sound faster cuz of youtube rights and crap

[brodyr2003]

i really miss this show

[XxtiffymorentinxX]

Everytime I hear this song, it always reminded me of the Muppets plus who can't forget his feathery outfit lol 3 :)

[pooponthewall8]

this is sooo slow cant watch it in less than 30 min. I keep having to repeat and repaet. so annoying. But i have to say... it is a must see. pretty cool costume

[pooponthewall8]

[MsExner01]

This is my oldest memory :) I was four yrs old when I first saw it & hav never forgotten that chicken suit or the crocodiles. Just the memory of it makes me smile every time! Thanks for posting it.

Can't wait to see the new Muppet Movie!

[ZenEternal]

I must've listened to a thousand versions of this song, and he never fails to surprise me...and make me laugh.

[theat0mic8unny]

8 people are complete muppets.

[horsewhisperlad]

TOO CUTE

[chyawanprashfanatic]

They need to bring back The Muppet Show.

[jinkss111]

Thats is the coolest outfit ever!!!

Crocodile rockin

[DebiB53]

5 people suck >(

[ccmstf]

Where's Elton John? All I see are muppets.

[haloslayer9019]

@J7J7J7J7J7JJ7J7J7J7J Hey hey, language mister.

[budsAok420]

@J7J7J7J7J7JJ7J7J7J7J Yo dude chill dude

[vysethethird]

@J7J7J7J7J7JJ7J7J7J7J They say ginger's don't have souls, but that's just an urban legend. The truth is people who cannot appreciate what the muppets offer are the real people who have no souls. Guess that makes you one of them.

[Mdude667]

I love when Kermit throws a seizure when he laughs.

[Mdude667]

[Assassin0798]

The Muppets and Elton John a pair made for heaven

[monkeesfan1980]

the muppet show was s n l for kids and elton still sounds great all these years later even though i was born in 1980 so i was drving my parents nuts listening to his greatest hits vinyl album over and over and watching the muppet babies so i didnt see any of this stuff till re runs long live jim henson and the muppets :)

[jromanr01]

RIP Muppets, bring back the old ways!

[tatianepalma29]

show !!! minha filha de 1 ano curti bastante

[arouska]

I saw him last february and when he played this song, all the music stopped during the "la,la,la" part and everyone in the place was singing

[tlhamstra]

Hysterical! Lived it! I listened to this song on the radio when I was in 6th grade. Never knew what the heck the Crocodile Rock as, bit didn't care! Then -20 years later, my young daughter was in a jazz dance class & students were asked to bring ideas 4 a song from 1970s to choreograph 4 their spring recital. She was the only 1 who suggested anything, & she picked this song! So about 15 7-8 yr old girls did it, in reptile bell bottoms & 70's crisscross tops-really fun!

[nanozith]

HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE.... loved it! Salutations Sir Elton John.

[EltonJohnRocketMan]

@HauntedLighthouses It doesnt matter how old you are i've met infants who like this song

[chara12345]

Look at that queen. Who the hell is Suzy?

[ltrecker]

JANIS!



[wolfboy581]

I remember seeing this episode on Nicklodeon when I was 11 in 1994.

[grapebuy789]

Janice's guitar is a little crooked.

[Oreo23cookie24]

it looks like he's getting squeezed in that costume.

[kja427]

I guess Lady Gaga would say this was her favorite episode of The Muppet Show; She took Elton's fashions, that's for damn sure.

[omuen]

@kja427

yeah, she has great and wacky choice in costumes!! like elton!

[littlebirdmjfan]

song actually starts at around 1:45 for anyone else who wants to skip the intro. :)

[gswagallday]

the person who disliked this got bit by a crocodile

[jpdemers]

As usual, Animal steals the show. :-)

[Delmarvellous]

So that's what the NBC peacock looks like up close & personal!

[garydemaio]

No, this was done in the mid 70's, during Elton's heyday.

[Gwarson100]

I love his cap. I love singing crocodiles!

[wiesje666]

I love the singing Gators!!

[Delmarvellous]

@wiesje666 Tut, tut...they're CROCS (and not the shoes).

[TheSVROverLord]

bad use for the song for a disney movie!

[markus122piesuckers]

thumbs up if you like ice cream!!!

[Seston]

was he out when he made this?

[luballen27]

What a great song, sung by a legend!

[oosthakker]

who the fuck is cee lo?

[juliocesar24]

soo, this is why north americans like gays so much, because since children they are told to tolarate an adult man dressed with feathers and glasses with fluorescent colors and shinny...well I don't know how to call that shit in his head. Cee Lo sent me here too hahaha 

[hiddenluv]

@juliocesar24 This was made in the mid to late 80's (I bealive) also the muppet show was tageted towards Teens to adults, kids would not get the jokes in the muppet show. As well as many adult today because the humnor is comlex and make you think, but the humor is clean, unlike in shows shuch as Family Guy. There humor is simple yet crude and is coruppting todays youth, because parents let kid watch it.

[juliocesar24]

@hiddenluv a muppet show targeted to teens and adults? WTF are you talking about??? are you on drugs son?

[Delmarvellous]

@hiddenluv Another contemporary show that's funny as all get-out, yet still clean (or has jokes way over the kids heads if it's not) is The Red Green Show.

[ArtAngel686]

@Delmarvellous i love that show haha

[golfsmoore]

yeah me too ... that was priceless.

[Schoolprojects22]

Thanks for the outfit Ce Lo!

[jillybug522]

1 person missed the like button!!!! >:-(

[Princeshelby]

@MylesDiverge I have the VRC of this, and it's obvious there that he's actually sing. I guess the timing got off when this video got downloaded.

[RoughEdgedBeauty]

I love this :)

[keatslane]

luv this song lol

[Princeshelby]

This video is what got me liking (sorry, LOVING) older music.

[erw165]

Dr. Teeth and The Electric Mayhem are the best!

[moonshadow112358]

@erw165 Hellz yah!



[LanieLouLucas]

i thought Cee-Lo's getup looked more like Elton John!!

[POLAARIS]

Cee-Lo knew about this and was actually paying homage to Elton.

[rockergirl807]

LOL elton john is so cool!!

[CbadSD]

I wish I could have watched this live while tripping balls. That would be insane.

[CrazyLazySnazzyJazzy]

I was trying to tell everyone that Cee-Lo Green ripped off Elton John and stuff, but they thought that it was an original thought -_- Elton John is awesome :D

[thebeatlesmudkip]

I wish my lunch liked me.:(

[Girlfriday1116]

well Cee Lo rendition was a little more alive...

a sign of the times

out with the old

in with the new

[Grizzlyuxxx]

Suck it Cee-Lo!

[MylesDiverge]

He's lip syncing. AMMIRIGHT?

[Princeshelby]

@MylesDiverge Back then, people could sing.

[MylesDiverge]

It looks like he's mouthing the lyrics off time to me. ;<

[Stiletto92]

@MylesDiverge no i think this is live, it sounds completely different to the studio version

[yoyoxpert101]

ahaha cee lo sr. hahahaha

[BJtotheKT]

LAAAAAAAALALALALALAAAAAA!

[melischang]

They don't make TV shows like the Muppet show anymore :/

[jonnysizzle73]

You twits...this was such an iconic moment in Muppet Show and TV history that Cee Lo didnt need to say squat! Him doing it was paying respect enough that it was not forgotten. I am sure you all know how big of a star Elton was back then. Stop the dumb slander.

[MeSpawn297]

Nah, if you do an homage like Cee-Lo did, especially of that caliber you don't HAVE to say you're doing it. People just know. It's not like he claimed he came up with it on his own. lol. It was a fantastic performance and I loved how much fun he had with it! He was laughing so much he forgot the words. hahaha

[vabuddy]

Tributes mention the person your "Tributing" he did not mention Sir Elton, this was arip off

[chunoone]

i think ceelo did an awesome tribute to Elton John. Made my night.

[PhuckHue2]

damn Cee-Lo, do something original

[zach8519]

Cee-Lo sent me here.

[KenFromBeara]

@zach8519 george harrison sent me here

[nojob11]

i used to love thembut they woul scare the crap out of me!!! but i love them now!!

[Leecriswell1]

I love this song!

[NaiTaiDai]

Elton has lunch, and then he BECOMES lunch for the crocodiles! XD They did eat him, right?

[nigelguliver22]

Maravilhoso! Amava os Muppets quando criança, e Elton desde a adolescência.

[CF1975]

Another obvious source of inspiration for Lady Gaga: the list of artists she 'borrowed' stuff from (musically, but also in presentation) , seems to go on and on. I am not one of the haters, although not my taste, I think she is musically very talented, but you can hardly call her original.

[royraaijmakers]

lady gaga was inspired by the muppet show??

[CF1975]

@royraaijmakers : I meant Elton John here, but perhaps the Muppets as well;). The difference is Miss Piggy has better dress sense...

[Jozma007]

Love how they stuck a tilly hat on Dr. Teeth lol

[demyxgurl]

i love this!

[ColonelJadeCurtiss]

This is so cute. I love the Muppets & Elton John.

[djtwintip]

most memorable musical performance on this show. i remember me a my folks rockin out when i was a little guy. ah, memories.

[ellesko]

@djtwintip

Don't forget Alice Cooper's live performance of Welcome To My Nightmare ;)

[nuwavevidspud]

La la la la la la, the muppet crocodile harmony is the best.

[jboycub7]

even my lunch likes me

[JBrennan729820]

Janice!

[warahoun]

@JBrennan729820

she's the original Orianthi :)

[velocity330]

Does anybody know the name of the girl with the guitar? I really wanna know!

[Chibystaceyg]

O.O!!! i thought he stopped being famous like retired.....i liked it when he singed...even tho he was (gay),-- not by stupid but the other way, his songs were awesome :D

[Surie157]

Haha :D

Sweetness.
