"You're Alive" is a Sesame Street song sung by Little Chrissy and the Alphabeats. They sing this song about things that are and are not alive. Little Chrissy gives various examples of things that aren't alive (yet they move by themselves onstage), and alive creatures (including a cameo by Buster the Horse). The Alphabeats demonstrate breathing between the song a few times.
