[crazymariamlr]

so great

[saugagirl83]

I always loved this clip!

[jws1272]

The Count slathered on the 1000 SPF this day!!!

[RedLightBulbs]

I'm glad The Count didn't burst into flames from the sunlight.

[mr3urious]

I'm also glad he didn't sparkle like the vampires in Twilight. :)

[delren88]

I am from Malaysia, I too used to love watching sesame street and the Count is one of my favourite characters. You can count on him to liven the show.

[nuzgirl07]

now why is the count (A VAMPIRE) basking in the hot hot sun!?

[sunstone12]

Done in a studio - thats the only way........else he'd be toast

[nerdelicious5]

the count has small feet

[finnishminnow]

Seems like The Count and Harry Belafonte had a lot of fun singing and hangin' out at the beach, wouldn't you agree to that?

[ayame316]

The birds are epic.

[norsidebb]

This is why I love You Tube. This was my favourite bite when I was a kid. Just watching made me feel like I back in 84 eating my Lucky Charms in front or th T.V

[copacetic79]

LOL- same here =)

[woodsweb]

what happened to the lightning after the counts counting?

To scary?

[05005051]

I remember seeing this years ago when I was tiny. It must be one of the few scenes in which we see him counting something without any signs of climate change afterwards.

[showyamine]

look im only 20 but i remember watching this on like classic sesame street lol

its one of my favourite bites on the show

[JumpJumpJumpJumpJump]

He's the coconut counting man.. i always thought this was a real song. wow. lucky count. got to sing with harry belafonte!

[insanehockeyfan]

Thank you for Putting this classic song. Brings back so many memories.

[grahampclarke]

Seriously this is the most classic thing ever. Nice work on this.

[Xear]

The Count for the win!

[rednosechulo]

this song brings back memories...thanx 4 posting this! love this a classic!

[mtcav]

I'm pretty sure I saw one segment where he was Ice skating. So i woulda seen his feet then (though he was wearing skates)

[hibiscusfire]

I always loved this one!!! :D

[hani273nhk]

why a vampire is sitting on a tropical island, basking IN THE SUN...

lol. i remember watching this scene, love the music and The Count; my favorite character.

[54spiritedwill54]

The song is "The Coconut Counting Man"

[verkaforever]

I love this song! Very nice melody.

[hchan1981]

I remember this! SS used to be so great. Can't believe they got rid of the Count's teetch and Cookie Monster is on vegetables now :(

[sunfreckledmoonchild]

THEY DID WHAT!! In my country they make the count go diving and count fish but he still has his teeth!

[giga150]

I send it to the Whole World

He is the Coconut counting Man !

[Detaliah]

I remember this song very well.

But I always thought the count would have burnt from being out in the sun like that.

[DreamDancer82]

I have no idea why, but I love those two little birdies. They're so cute!

"He's the coconut counting man!"

Though the purple bird was funnier in the G video.

[zacandtaylorrule]

I remember this when it was originally on. It has always been one of my favorites. I especially lovbe the birds.

[mikestamlo]

lol we need to find a bigger island anyway!

[dassh25quest]

The count was always my favorite sesame street character.

[xenoge3476]

20 years later and sesame street is still teaching me things

[mariechaton]

and to think kids today grow up w/crap like teletubbies. 70's/80's Sesame Street was a genius mix of education, art, and culture.

[juandagitab]

good ol' days.. :D

[Mariomarinette]

1st time i see counts feeds. funny feeds =)

[dassh25quest]

the count's legs are also shown in the movie, Follow that bird

[superiormexican]

OMG I AM FIVE AGAIN

[Arcangelo13]

Harry Belafonte is great, Sesame street is great, together they are AWESOME

[LifeIsLiar]

Totally. :D

[juandagitab]

agreed!..

hehe late reply sorry.. :D

[Mick342]

Was Kermit The Only Muppet To Be on Boath The Muppet Show And Seseme Street

[Silverblade5]

No also Ms. Piggy. and Animal

[DreamDancer82]

When were Miss Piggy and Animal on Sesame Street?

[ShadyMan01]

What, no thunder and lighting when the Count counts, I think that's cool!!!

[belafontefan]

only time we see vounts feet -_- :P but still great song!!!

[BrownEyedGirrlMD7]

i keep expecting the count to burst into flames.. he is a vampire afterall..

this is awesome!!

[Justdizzy]

DAYWALKER!

The count is great, and this song is classic.

[A1l2l2e2n4]

Maybe he was wearing SPF 100 sunscreen!

[nicka727]

The song is "The Coconut Counting Man"

[wattamack4]

Does anybody have that song where three mexcian anything muppets,(Pumpkin Fat Blue and Purple),on an island sing about the wind,(with wind blowing),and at the end they all get blown away?

[nekoruu]

I have that on VHS tape if i knew how to make video's i'd put it on, but look for sesame street sing along and you should find it

[IgorMusicNut]

Thank you! You have made my day, week, month, etc. I have been looking for this song/video for ages. thanks again.

[verkaforever]

I love this song! Thanks for posting it.

[mybahamas]

I always thought this was cool and smiled at how they mentioned The Bahamas and a few of the islands down here :)

[StaceSesame]

i love Count's cute little purple feet. :D

[PattiSchmidt]

Strange! Showing his feet is not scaring me. Usually I can't look at The Count. Too afraid.

[Mupuro]

Afraid of what????

[pokinsmot]

OH the memories!!! thank you!

[grecomic]

I always liked how the birds chimed in at the end of the chorus. :)

[PaulDrapac]

I wish they added this song to the box set of 'Songs from the Street' this and Ray Charles' "OH What A Beautiful Morning" and Judy Collins "Fisherman Song"

[culpit]

That purple bird was the same bird from the, "Oh G", skit. Only he's speaking in a girl's voice here.

[Yousignhere]

Shouldn't the Count be bursting into flames right about now? He is a vampire after all!

[wiley207]

I loved this one as a kid!

[Nickrj1]

what year was this?

[wattamack4]

1982.

[austinmuppet]

well his shoes were in the song "Dancing Shoes" but this is the only actual foot scene :P. Thanks sooo much for the upload. I've loved this song. :P

[austinmuppet]

Ooh, sorry, I meant probably only :P
