Muppet Show. Old Sicientist - Time in a Bottle (s02e07)

Agreed. But you forgot While My Guitar Gently Weeps with Floyd. Ah, I favor The Gambler anytime :)

The great thing about the Muppets is their variety. I don't know what sketch followed this one on the original episode, but it was probably something silly and pointless and hilarious. The Muppets could move from silly to poignant quickly and easily and do both well. This is certainly one of the most brilliant sketches they ever did. Only Harry Belafone's "Turn the World Around" and Kenny Rogers' "The Gambler" are as good.

Have you seen Leo Sayer when he was on the show? I love the Muppets!

Jim didn't know how little time he had...

I loved this song, epecially with the muppets. It does make you cry...

I can really relate to this song.

I think everyone can which is the point of the song.

I loved this when I was younger

Thanks for posting this classic part of the muppets up here. I remember this sad song so well becasue what he said is true. "There never seems to be enough time to do the things you want to do when you find them."

Ah well...at least we have sites like this. That in a way is like storing time in a bottle, thanks for putting it up! ^_^

I love this song*0*
