Media diet: new Sesame Street album!

Jul 09, 2003 18:32

Those of you who've known me for awhile already know I'm a fan of Sesame Street and collect recordings of mainstream musical artists' appearances on the show (mostly MP3s, but I have a bunch on VHS too -- where do you think the MP3s come from?).

It was announced on Monday that a new Sesame Street boxed set will be coming out late August/early September called Songs from the Street, which will include Tony Bennett's "Little Things", Melissa Etheridge's "Like the Way U Does", the Spin Doctors' "Two Princes", and the Fugees' "Happy to Be Me" (the latter's currently available on Elmopalooza).

I am literally itching for this to come out, although it may just be the ant bites again.

And just to be facetious, the photos in the copy of the announcement on ToughPigs (yes, there are entire adult fansites for Sesame Street and the Muppets) are, top to bottom: Sheryl Crow singing a parody of "Soak Up The Sun", the Backstreet Boys singing "One Small Voice", R.E.M. singing "Furry Happy Monsters", and Gladys Knight Patti LaBelle (thanks, cathouse!) leading a sing-along of the alphabet song.
