My daughter enjoys this video....

The audio is terrible. My wife, who knows nothing about sound systems, caught the problem in 2 seconds. It took me a minute longer to realize that it was the DVD and not the setup. (Other DVD's sounds great). I can't believe how badly they took a VHS and made it into a DVD.

While this video is certainly not the best Sesame Street video I've ever seen, it's not bad and my 18 month old son enjoys it (and has for over two months now) and that's what's most important.

Granted, the songs on this video are not my favorites. Many of them are nursery rhymes, such as "Baa, Baa, Black Sheep," or "classics" such as "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star," which don't really hold my interest. But my son enjoys them. In addition, the Count does a cute number called "These Old Bats" (instead of "This Old Man"), and the Oinker Sisters' rendition of "This Little Pig Goes to Market" is just wonderful.

My biggest complaint, and it's not much of one, is that the musical plot is really a numbers plot centering around counting backwards from ten to one. Obviously, my 18 month old isn't ready for that and it doesn't hold his interest at all. Had I realized this ahead of time, I might not have bought this particular video. But I consider this mainly my fault for not researching it properly (the reviews on Amazon, for example, make this plot very clear).

Format: VHS Tape
My 21 month old daughter is a Sesame Street fanatic and has been since about 12 months old, when she got this tape. Not only do I love the beginning song (which sounds like Bob Dylan) but all of the songs on this tape are old favorites: "I've been working on the railroad", "Twinkle, twinkle little star", and my daughter's favorite, "She'll be coming 'round the mountain". In other words, if you are looking for a tape of Sesame Street songs, this is not the tape for you. Yes, this is a S.S. video, but the songs are kid's favorites, sung by the characters on the show. When I first popped in the tape, I was expecting "Rubber Duckie" and the other cute songs from the show. However, this is not the case, but is NOT a disappointment. Sesame Street fans will love singing and dancing along to the video, which is adorable and will be played in your house for a long time.

I bought this DVD in spite of reading the negative reviews here on Amazon and decided that a 4* average rating was worth it. I was WRONG!

This DVD is SHORT about 30 mins total including the ads! Rouhgly 15 mins running time! Ridiculous!

Furthermore, I expected Sesame Street classics like Ernie singing "Rubber Ducky", "Yellow Submarine" and so on. Instead we get the Sesame Street version of a few Nursery rhymes and BAD sesame street versions at that.

My One year old who normally stays glued once Sesame Street is on WALKED AWAY after a few minutes! My 6 year old complained that the songs were "not right. They are singing them wrong!" She said. She didn't like it.

This has been a MAJOR disappointment. Better off to by Barney..at least you get FULL time with menus and the children stay interested.

In this instance, the 1 star reviewers got it dead right! This was a total waste of money!

Well, the sound quality is so poor, it was actually hurting my ears even at low volume. it's ALL treble and raspy..
It's also very short... it's 30 minutes long, but the first half of the video are advertisements that you can't skip!! my son didn't like it and i have to agree with him... if you are looking for a good songs dvd, get kids favorite songs #2. It is much much much better and longer... another good one is strawberry shortcake...

i don't recommend this dvd to anyone..

This DVD has the same audio problem as "The Best of Elmo". I am very disappointed about the audio transfer. It's completely distorted and way too loud. The sound of Elmo actually scares my 1.5-year-old son. Try it from a video store first. Don't waste money on the DVD.

The audio on this DVD is completely unacceptable. The VHS version might be ok, but the DVD is very hard to listen to. It's loud, distorted, and easily the worst sounding DVD I've ever heard. It's worse than AM radio.

My biggest problem with this DVD is that it is so incredibly short. They claim 32 minutes play time, which is a complete lie. A good part of that is commercials and credits. We clocked just under 17 minutes of actual entertainment. The commercials weren't even good ones that entertain. Credits can also be fun, but not in this movie. The kid is not interested.
My next problem is that the DVD is very old. The audio is chalky. The audio quality sounds as if they took an old video tape and digitally recorded it (as opposed to 'digitally remastered').
There is no menu and no chapters. You can't fast forward to the actual movie, you have to manually forward the movie. It's as if they took an old VHS tape and put in your DVD player. One would think that Sony could invest $20 in software to make the few adjustments necessary.
I think that this DVD is worthless. Do not be taken in by its low price. $1 is too much to pay.
