[dickclarkfan1]

This was Frank Oz' directorial debut

Keith Vernon Textor and Jim Henson are the composers.

I don't know how the ball did all that rolling. Most of the time it's rolling on a flat surface, & some parts it even looks like it's rolling uphill! Hmmmm.

[gopconservative78]

I love the hippie music......I bet when this was made everybody was on the bong.....

[CanadaFamilyMan]

HIPPIE music??? More like circus or carousel music, don't you think?

[altov2]

PC XBOX 360 PS3 got nuthin on dis sh*t mang! heheh.

Seriously, i may have found the reason for my liking of repetitive and a bit simple things.

[CanadaFamilyMan]

I think my mom preferred the version of the ball being ground up. That's because whenever THIS one came on, my siblings & I always ended up pestering her for ice creme!

[biteycat4]

Omg I can't believe that I would ever get to see this clip again!! This was my favorite Sesame short. Still is!!

[sideslide23]

loves this, this is like the ball on the roller coaster track

[CanadaFamilyMan]

This used to make me FEEL like I was on a roller coaster! & I used to think the little girl @ the end was Shirley Temple! A fun little piece!

[Rkerekes13]

The little girl at the end is Heather Henson, Jim Henson's youngest child!

[CanadaFamilyMan]

That is correct. Very good that he passed these things down to his kids!

[Rkerekes13]

Thanks! By the way, which voiceover do you think sounds more natural, the boy in the original version with the ball getting ground up or the girl in this version?

[CanadaFamilyMan]

about the same

[Rkerekes13]

What do you mean?

[CanadaFamilyMan]

I could never tell which voice was the new version.

[Rkerekes13]

How come?

[CanadaFamilyMan]

The dubbing was done well.

[Rkerekes13]

Okay.

[MaddieKittie]

Yay, I was looking for this forever!! 20 years later it's still in my brain.

[ottsie23]

[darlingRees]
