Make a "Best of" list for all the characters!

What was Kermit's line in "Do De Rubber Duck"?

I remember the following having lines in that song: Ernie, Telly, Oscar, The Count, and Gladys the Cow. I know Kermit was in the tub, but I don't remember him singing (other than joining in the chorus).

Also, who else was in the tub in that song? I'm pretty sure Guy Smiley was. Anyone else?

Kermit sang "Everybody Knows, scrub your flippers and your toes"

Hoots and Elmo and Biff were also there. Elmo was the only one who didn't have a line in that song. And he was not in the bathtub with everyone else but in the clothes hamper. It seems funny seeing Elmo have such a small background role in that song, considering how different things are nowadays with him. Mabye he should have just stayed in that clothes Hamper. lol

I remember another Kermit song, circa 1989. "Everyone Get Along".

I dunno if you are aware of this, but there has been a Best of Cookie Monster album and a Best of Grover as well. About 98% of the songs you listed for them are on those albums, plus some others you may have left out.

I don't believe it was Herry that sang "Up and Down" with Cookie. It was a Jim Henson character.

I don't believe it was Herry that sang "Up and Down" with Cookie. It was a Jim Henson character.

I have read that there were actually two versions made with cookie monster and herry monster. I have read that jim henson actually performed herry in the first version, which is kinda weird, since I thought that he was created especially for jerry nelson to perform. Also, I know that this song was included on the first sesame street album, made shortly after the first season was competed, and i thought herry first appeared in the second season. I am not sure whether this song was remade so soon or if the herry puppet actually existed in the first season. i know that the singer credit for this song is "two monsters", although the performer credits do list cookie monster by name (but no other monster). i would have thought that beautiful day monster would have been the other singer. I am not sure what the deal is.

and now, ladies and gentlemen, here is my wishlist for a Sesame Street kermit album:
1. being green
2. i love my elbows
3. do op hop
4. i wonder about the world above up there
5. my pollywog ways
6. alphabet in the swamp (or whatever the title is)
7. a song from kermit
8. if i were
9. carribean amphibean
10. get along
11. the heart of a frog
12. in the quiet of the evening
13. we're alive
14. this frog

actually, considering the fact that some sesame street albums (sing the alphabet) have had up to 27 songs, i think that all of kermits sesame street songs could have been released on one album. the only other kermit songs (from sesame street) i can think of that i didn't list are on my pond, tadpole, the frogs in the glen, african alphabet and disco frog. I am not counting cameo appearances or songs featured in sesame street news sketches (or leena hornes version of being green).
