"Up and Down" is a Sesame Street song from Season 1 that was featured on The Sesame Street Book & Record. The song talks about the different things you can see when you look up, and when you look down. It was credited to "Two Monsters" performed by Jim Henson and Frank Oz. The album's illustrations and pictures include misleading clues as to who the two monsters may have been, but given the ambiguity, there is no conclusive evidence that it was ever meant to have been two specific monsters when it was initially recorded.

In 1970 (for Season 2), the song was videotaped with Cookie Monster and an early Herry Monster. The soundtrack on The Sesame Street Book & Record album was used for this version, so Jim Henson's voice, rather than that of Jerry Nelson, is heard.

In 1997, a remake of this song was taped with Herry and Cookie Monster in a playground. This version of the song marked the debut of a revised version of Herry, with thinner eyebrows.
