4.0 out of 5 stars High in Sesame goodness, low in Muppet appearances, January 4, 2003

This review is from: Sesame Street - Sing Along [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I like this tape a lot, even though it's dated (by Maria's big '80s hair!). Most of the singing takes place when the Sesame Street gang and a group of kids drag a piano up to the roof to have a sing-along with Bob and Big Bird. Workmen Biff and Sully just happen to be up there "fixing" a TV, where you get to see some terrific non-rooftop spots including Grover and the late great Madeline Kahn singing "Sing After Me," a sign-language enhanced "Sing," "We All Sing With The Same Voice," and "Doin the Pidgeon"

Maria, Gordon, Bob, Big Bird, Hoots the Owl and the kids all sing "John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt," "Old MacDonald Had A Farm,""Stand Up and Pinch Your Nose," the Alphabet song, a cute upbeat number by Big Bird called "Cheer Up" and, for a grand finale, my ultimate favorite Sesame Street song, "What's The Name Of That Song."

The production values in this tape are very simple - but the focus is on the characters and their voices. Everybody gets to be who they are. I recommend this one to anybody who likes the people on Sesame Street as well as the muppets.

P.S. The video cover is a little misleading: Ernie and Bert aren't part of the sing-along: they appear separately in "Doin the Pigeon" and "Rubber Ducky." A bit of trivia - this tape started its life as a Sesame Street episode.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must for the One to Two Year Old Set!, March 22, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Sesame Street - Sing Along [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video is our savior! Our 16 month old daughter never tires of it, and it keeps her totally enraptured for a full half hour! The songs are classic and engaging, and the premise is cute too. A definite must.

4.0 out of 5 stars A fun sing-along video!, February 24, 2002

This review is from: Sesame Street - Sing Along [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Be forewarned....Elmo does NOT appear in this video! However, this is a really cute sing-along with most of your favorite characters (human and muppet). We especially like the "Be my echo" song with Grover. My daughter loves this video and asks for it again and again, even though Elmo isn't in it. I bought it not knowing what to expect. What I got was a cute video that my daughter enjoys, which is worth the price.
