Huey Lewis and the News must love this shape. The Beginning and Ending was trimmed on Sesame Street's "Rock and Roll" Video.

  • In '87, Huey released this, Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.

    HEY PENTAGON!

  • HEY PAUL!

  • Ever since I watched American Psycho I can never look at this short again.

  • I remember I heard this song before listening to Huey Lewis...so I thought HE copied off of THIS.....That's how epic Sesame Street was...

  • "square" was a dated slang word by the time i was little so i didn't really understand this haha

  • Omg the memories!!! i'm in nostalgia mode right now! xD, this was one of my huge faves of sesame street! x3

  • @svetaswan Not to be rude, and I see that this comment is old but why are you here posting? I don't go to Sesame Street episodes from the 1990's posting comments looking for the classic ones from the 1980s. If you are looking for episodes from the 1975-1981, then you should enter that in the search bar. It may not be classic sesame street for you, but it is for many of us here.

  • The original version of this song was on the So You Think You Can Dance finale tonight, and I said to my Mom, "i swear i know this from a kids show like sesame street!" she laughs realizing i never knew this was based off a real song. Then we found this video and I'm SO happy to visit classic memories. SO GOOD
