Classic Sesame Street - Trying and Trying Again

From the Classic Days of Sesame Street. This is a song from the late great Joe Raposo. I've had this clip on a tape since I don't know when, and it just doesn't get any credit anymore.

This clip comes from episode 2103, in case you were curious. I don't have footage of the entire episode I'm sorry to say, and this was the only thing from it I copied over to VHS (I had this on Beta).

What is it that the cat is climbing?

I hope someone else besides you have a full version of Episode 2103.

[DreamDancer82]

Uhh, I DON'T have the full version. If I did, I woulda posted the whole thing.

Where did my life go? It went by so fast. It seems like just a year or so ago that I was watching this, eating my PB and J and my chocolate milk after kidnergarten (which was only a half day back then.)

Live as much as you can out of every day. It will be over before you know it.

It sounds like there's an incresing scale at 2:04, listen carefully, if it was clearer, then this piece of nostagia would be more memorable.

Myself, it was the best song to listen to.

Raposo, I wish you were resurrected so you can fix Sesame street-it's a public toilet now!

@ShadesBelow03 Yeah, but Elmo's the one that did the most. In fact, I'm going to make a horror movie about him, and call it: "Nightmare on Elmo Street" :)

[ShadesBelow03]

@jfpinell ...Wasn't just Elmo, we all have to remember when Barney came out, every kids' show now had to fit in that mold. S.S. sure did, and they never recovered from it!

[patthedrummer85]

@excelsior27 slick little bass riff that goes down to the octave! very tasteful!

[torontonian1978]

@pokinsmot I just wrote a comment about that turtle,I actually cried when I saw this for the first time(I was like 3) I was scared that turtle got hurt,and no body was there to help him

[delideliver]

I actually cried the first time I saw this when I was about 3,I was so scared that turtle got hurt and nobody was helping him,my mother actually said "keep watching he's ok" man child hood memories
