Ever wish songs just sang what was happening in the music video? Well now they do! Vocals by Rob O'Hara. Many thanks to DustoMcNeato for the idea and inspiration; I hope mine is 1/10 as good as his. RIP Jim Henson. Please buy both the Muppet Movie on DVD and the Muppet Movie Soundtrack. I think that about covers it.

  • Nice, did you keep it clean 'cause it's a "kids" movie or what? Just wondering. Glad you kept it clean and you did a great job matching your voice to the song.

  • @k24601 I kept it clean because I have an eight-year-old who is learning how to use the Internet. :)

  • It's hard to imagine anyone who would appreciate such reverent disrespect more than Jim Henson, one of the greatest practitioners thereof. Thanks for not adding cheap laugh profanity, because it means I can show this to my classes; they already know the original, and are too impressionable to be given access to some of the parodies floating around. Two decades after Jim's passing, someone still using his stuff is great news.

  • Incredible video! This song (as done by Kermit) is one of my favorite songs, and your literal video gave it a very nice twist, while still in keeping the same style as the original song. That the vocalist sounds very close to the original and syncs perfectly with Kermit's mouth movements just adds to the video.

  • 14 People Didn't find the Frog who plays Banjo..

  • Super job! I love the original and this was a very funny and fitting tribute. Thanks for making me smile.

  • That was incredibly cute and clever. It even sounds like Kermit. I think my favorite part was "Hey, Jim, now that we're done, I'll ask if you'll remove your arm."

  • luv thid videos

  • Luvd ur Vid :)

  • That was supremely adorable!

  • Thumbs up if you finally found the frog playing banjo! hahaha

  • Funny yet tactful parody. Nice job! Sorry for asking this, but is there any chance you'll release an MP3 of this? Or even just an instrumental version?

  • Where did you get the background you are singing over?

  • very good, i love this song, and your version is just great,
