Sesame Street Karaoke

[Son of Enik]

Ok, so I may sound like a nut here...but hear me out.
I am a DJ and also run karaoke shows. I have over 60 songs from Disney on karaoke, so it occurred to me, why not Sesame Street songs on karaoke?
I would love to be able to sing "Bein' Green", "C Is For Cookie", "Rubber Duckie" and "Goin' For A Ride" just to name a few.
Am I alone here, or does anyone else think this is a good idea?

[Son of Enik]

So...no one else thinks this is a good idea??

[anytimepally]

I would totally throw down some Karaoke from the Street... "Telephone Rock" would be awesome

[Son of Enik]

Thank you...good to know I'm not alone.

[Fragglemuppet]

Oh yeah, I'm totally with you! Any songs by Little Jerry and the Monotones would be awesome, as well as other songs, of course!
:cool:
:D
:crazy:
So, anyone got the time and equipment to make them?

[Son of Enik]

I wish I knew how to make Karaoke CD & Graphic discs, there are so many songs I would make available.
As I stated before, Disney has made alot of Karaoke CDG's and the quality is excellent. I think Sesame Workshop and/or Sony Wonder should jump on this idea...Karaoke's still big and I for one wouldn't think twice about getting up on stage to sing a Sesame Street song.

I actually thought about the first two volumes of Sesame Karaoke
Volume 1

1-Sesame Street Theme
2-Rubber Duckie
3-Doin' The Pigeon
4-C Is For Cookie
5-I Love Trash
6-Goin' For A Ride
7-Somebody Come & Play
8-Sing
9-Bein' Green
10-Around, Over, Under and Through
11-The Song Of The Count
12-I Believe In Little Things
13-People In Your Neighborhood
14-Mah Nah Mah Nah
15-ABCDEF-GHI-JKLMNOP-QRST-UVWXYZ

Volume 2
1-Ladybug's Picnic
2-Telephone Rock
3-Count It Higher
4-This Frog
5-High, Middle and Low
6-Circles
7-Honker Duckie Dinger Jamboree
8-Put Down The Duckie
9-National Association of W Lovers
10-Frazzle
11-What Do I Do When I'm Alone
12-Elmo's Song (Not a favorite, but the kids will love it)
13-What's The Name Of That Song?
14-Monster In the Mirror
15-The Batty Bat

Those are my ideas, I tried to span the years and include major characters.

Sound Choice Karaoke has just announced a new Karaoke CDG coming out on Feb. 23 called "Childhood Memories", and it features C Is For Cookie, Being Green, Rubber Duckie, I Love Trash, and ABCDEF-GHIJK-LMNOP-QRS-TUVWXYZ!! The disc also features songs from "Pinnochio", "Snow White", "Dumbo", "Annie" and "Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory" (yes, The Oompa Loompa song's on there!!)
Just thought I'd share the info.

[BooberKnowsBest]

Funny this should come up! I actually went to a party kinda thing a couple of days ago for the company that my dad works for, and they were doing karaoke as an activity. I was looking through the song list and to my surprise and delight, found, "Bein Green," "The Rainbow Connection," "Who are the People In Your Neighborhood," "Rubber Duckie," and a couple of others that i can't remember. Proud to say I got up there and performed "The Rainbow Connection," and also sang Simon & Garfunkel's "The Boxer," with my sister. i took the harmony:D But anyways, i think there should definitely be a whole collection of muppet karaoke. I would buy it at least :sing:

[Fragglemuppet]

That's great SOE, thanks for the info.
Wow Jenn, that sounded great. Bet everyone loved it!

[Fozzie Bear]

I have karaoke for The Muppet Show theme, Bein Green, and Rainbow Connection.

[Flavio]

Maybe the Count could have a cool counting minigame!

[Kiki]

SS karaoke?? That sounds SO cool! Here's some of my ideas :D :

-'Bein' Green'
-'Rubber Duckie'
-'Everyone Makes Mistakes'
-'Nearly Missed'
-'Batty Bat'
-'What Do I Do When I'm Alone?'
-'C is for Cookie'
-'Doin' The Pigeon'
-'I Love Trash'
-'Rainbow Connection' (Yeah, I know it Muppets, but hey)
-'Mahna Mahna'
-'Songs'
-Count It Higher'
-'Sing'
-'People In Your Neighbourhood'

...and more! ;)

I once saw a karaoke CD that, in the song listing, listed celebrities who were most famous for those songs. Maybe it would be a good idea to do something like this for a Sesame Street karaoke album. Perhaps a track could say, for example, "Rubber Duckie... made famous by Ernie". But then I wonder what would be done for an Anything Muppet song, or a song that wasn't sung by any characters (like many of Joe Raposo's songs).

But this would make a good track list:

Sesame Street Theme
Rubber Duckie
The People in Your Neighborhood
One of These Things
C is for Cookie
Proud of Me
One Small Voice
Being Green
I Wonder About the World Above Up There
My Pollywog Ways
I Love Trash
A Cookise is a Sometime Food
Doing the Pigeon
I Wish I Had a Friend to Play with Me
Imagien Taht
Everyone Likes Ice Cream
ABC-DEF-GHI
Wheels on my Feet
I Love My Elbows
Sing
The Batty Bat
Telephone Rock
Elmo's Song
Dance Myself to Sleep
La, La, La
Mad
Count it Higher
You're Alive
Danger
I'm an Aardvark
Being a Pig
What are Kids Called?
Mountain of Love
Best Friends Blues
Monster in the Mirror
Frazzle

[Flavio]

To add to your list, Kiki, I'd add the "W" song.

:D :D :D
