Jim Henson Memorial - Jim's Favorite Songs

Sung by his fellow Muppeteers toward the end of his memorial which took place in New York on May 21, 1990. I've decided to put this segment back up because it means so much to so many, including me.

Wouldn't it be great if you leave a mark on this world as positive and as strong and inspirational as Jim Henson did?

[NotMostGirls]

Honey, in my world that's a compliment. Next time try harder.

That's so inspirational. Jim had some really good messages to tell the world...

"I've got a dream, too. But it's about singing and dancing and making people happy. That's the kind of dream that gets better the more people you share it with." - Kermit the Frog, The Muppet Movie, 1979.

I dream of that every night I go to sleep... even when I sleep forever.

I can't believe that was Dave Goelz 23years ago

I never saw this before. He was a brilliant and supported by some funny and talented people. A revelation to see what they look like without their muppet disguises. They must have had such fun.

Wow did not know that elmo was played by a black man

I lost it at the last song, too, particularly when the Fraggles join in.

I have so much fun watching this right up until the last song, and then I start crying.

I miss you, Mr. Henson. So much.

So lovely! I held it together until One Person, then it was like floodgates open. RIP Jim, 23 years ago today, but it feels like yesterday :( You were, and still are, one of my personal heroes.
