In the Sesame Street song "Two G Sounds," Grover and an Anything Muppet boy named George explore the difference between the hard and soft "G" sounds that start their respective names.

The song debuted on the LP The Muppet Alphabet Album and was then made into a skit the same year, and was also released on the CD reissue, Sing the Alphabet.

In the original LP record version, it began with George repeating the soft "G" sound over and over, with Ernie wondering what the sound is, and then Grover asks about the sound. Then George explains about the letter "G" and his name, which leads them into the song. But on the TV version, the beginning with George making the "G-g-g" sounds and Ernie's dialogue was cut, so that it immediately began on George explaining that his name begins with "G."
