Sesame Street

I grew up with the show. The little vignettes in the 80s were a lot different than they are now, but there's something so simple and magical about them. Maybe there's some connection to my fascination with BOC. A deep-tissue subconscious tickling or something.
The BOC songs with Sesame Street samples that I know of:
whitewater
an eagle in your mind
sixtyten
roygbiv
aquarius
It'd be so amazing to get those old episodes on tape or dvd.

I for one would love the idea of releasing old Sesame Street dvds. Perhaps even a BoC special edition is in line. I have to say that my Sesame Street days, although numerous, have gotten a bit blurry, but that's what makes the music experience so unique. To think that when I was innocently watching the show at the age of 5 or 6, that it would come up in such a significant way nearly twenty years later is mindblowing. Oh and don't forget "the color of the fire" for that list.

I'm 23 and I remember growing up on that show. I think children born in the late 70's or early 80's have a special connection with Boc's music. For me, it seems to bring back a time when things were simpler in life.

I was totally thinking that same thing. I found a few clips on Kazaa, but never a whole show. DVD's would be awesome to have!

I did some searching for old clips. While no BOC-related stuff came up (yet) I did find the Teeny Little Super Guy --- remember him??
Check out this clip:

The song has been stuck in my head for three days now. I hope October comes quickly.....

Is it me, or does Teeny Little Super Guy kick ass?

In Holland we had our own Sesame Street called: Sesam Straat
The subjects were the same, but nothing of the <i>"deep-tissue subconscious tickling or something"</i>
Even the yellow bird (don't know his name) was totally different, he was blue, fat and named Pino...
So I don't have that special connection.

i never really liked sesam straat, i think the original looks and feels way better

Take a look at these sesamstraat images. Kinda creepy if you ask me. Definitely no deep-tissue subconscious tickling here.

Just a guess, but maybe he is just innocently helping his pal out with some friendly sit-ups!

That Bert and Ernie image comes from a colouring book (from Holland, but it's also been released here in Belgium). EVERY image implies a sexual, homo-erotic pose. Really.

Haven't you guys heard the rumours about these two? Undoubtedly there's some hanky panky going on, especially when Bert has that look in his eye.

Apparently, they were supposed to be the first gay couple on television. Not that any of us knew that when we were kids. I also heard the creators made one of them die from aids to show children the harsh reality of life. (Not sure if that's actually true though)

I was so happy to find "Lowercase N" on audiogalaxy back in the day. Damn I gotta look for that again. I think it was this one n standing on a hill, and then another n landed in a spaceship, and they joined together and made an m....or something.
Yayey found it
