This was actually the second of Sesame Street's disco albums, but I was too young for Sesame Street Fever.

i was about to say, the only song i remember from growing up was, via my mom and my older brother, "Doin' The Pigeon." this looks like a good lineup though tbh.

Ohhhh, man. You just kickstarted 'Me Lost Me Cookie at the Disco' in my brain. Which isn't quite as epic as 'Cookie Disco' from the previous album but still great.

Oh wow. Cookie Disco is their take on Shaft! How have I never heard that?

When I was a kid we used to rent a bunch of Sesame Street tapes from the library, some of which dated back to the 70's. I swear "Me Lost Me Cookie at the Disco" was on one of them because I was obsessed with it. I was so happy to find it again (on Soulseek, obviously)...is the rest of this worth hearing??

'Happiest Street in the World' is solid, was also covered solidly by Qypthone (Japanese band).

'Disco Frog' is pretty peppy + fun.

Doin the Trash cos this makes it sound like Oscar is shooting up

there's too much fucking shit on me (Neanderthal), Wednesday, 11 August 2021 18:26 (three years ago)

Have I got a surprise for you

Marty J. Bilge (Old Lunch), Wednesday, 11 August 2021 18:29 (three years ago)

The only one I don't really like is Sing. Me Lost Me Cookie, Disco Frog, or Doin' The Trash are the obvious hits. Bein' Green is a very chill reinterpretation.

'Me Lost Me Cookie...' was in semi-regular rotation on my college radio show. I assume my +/-5 listeners dug it.

best Beenie Man song

Well, that was decisive! I was the lone vote for Disco Frog.

peace, man, Wednesday, 18 August 2021 10:55 (three years ago)

the backup vocals in Doin the Trash are so funny

I love Disco Frog. During the early pandemic, when the weather got warm, my kids and I would sit on the front steps and blast Disco Frog for the passerby.

"Sesame Street Fever" is a jam.

i dropped the title cut into dj sets a few times over the years - it was a true joy seeing the delight on ppls faces when they heard ernie's rubber duckie squeak and realized they were dancing to a sesame street record

Had a copy, played it to death.
