A Random Post

So I got to talking with my neighbours the other night... somehow or other we ended up talking about Sesame Street songs. I put it to the world that Sesame Street is in fact the home of all good music.  For just over 40 years Sesame Street has been providing us with joyful music combined with helpful alphabet, spelling and counting knowledge. My all time favourite: 1, 2, 3, 4... (the pinball song) - interestingly, it was sung by The Pointer Sisters http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBWxX3713gc  In the same way that Uno is making a comeback, I predict that if you were to crack this song open on a dance floor anywhere in the world, it would go off! And here are some other classics: Bandananahttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SmFZcStPgPs Some & None http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7cWBrGAIcc More recently...
