Speaking/Singing Voices
Edit
I just watched this again, and I noticed that it sounds like Loretta Long is singing for one of the female characters. Can anybody confirm this, and are there any other human cast members singing in this song? -- Ken (talk) 04:14, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
- Loretta Long does the mother's singing voice, and Bob McGrath is the son's singing voice. I don't know who's voicing the uncle (aside from his dialogue). -- MuppetDude 14:28, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
- I thought the uncles voice was Will Lee. --Minor muppetz 16:33, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
Episodes
Edit
Wow! I am amazed that somebody knew of what other episodes of Sesame Street featured this song, aside from the first episode. However, none of those episodes have pages here (as far as I know). None of the episode numbers have links to the episodes. I don't feel like going through the history page and looking through every revision untill I find out who added that info, but how is that known? Was there a magazine that mentioned this (it seems like a lot of episodes had info listed in Sesame Street Parents Magazine)? Does the contributor have a good memory of episode numbers and sketches that were in them? --Minor muppetz 19:01, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
- That info came from a record titled "Songs from Sesame Street" from 1970. While it was not created by CTW, it was worth buying because all of the songs were from other productions, and not written for the show (but were used on the program's first season). What was more interesting is that on the back of the record was a list of what episodes contained which songs. The list on the album reads:
- Feelin' Groovy--12, 86
- Good Morning Starshine--3, 23, 54, 103, 121
- Yellow Submarine--17, 62, 102
- Swingin' On a Star--10, 61, 107
- Up, Up and Away--49, 71
- Mah-Na Mah-Na--14, 41, 53, 91, 113
- Happiness Is (Different Things to Different People)--25, 53, 96
- Spinning Wheel--12, 32, 80, 100
- A, You're Adorable--23, 54, 104
- Consider Yourself At Home--25, 38, 47, 65, 92 (also in #1)

- Tht is such cool information. I didn't know that "A"-You're Adorable wasn't written for the show. Do we have a page yet for that album (I know that some Sesame Street albums that Sesame Workshop wasn't involved in, production-wise, have articles here)? And now I guess some song pages could have updates. I think the talk page for "Mahna Mahna" recently had some discussion about whether that sketch was first performed on Sesame Street or The Ed Sullivan Show. --Minor muppetz 19:10, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
