Walter's Music Picks

Enjoy this special Muppet compilation starring Walter!

Walter: Hi, Muppet fans! I am Walter, and today I'm showcasing some of my favorite musical moments from the Muppets, both the movie and the franchise. First, a song from the movie, and I got to sing it.

(Leads to "Life's a Happy Song"; During the non-musical part with Gary and Mary, Walter fast-forwards)

Walter (voice-over): I don't think we need to see the long non-music part. Besides, there's no Muppets in the scene.

(Walter stops fast-forwarding and the rest of the clip is shown)

Walter: I had a lot of fun doing that song. And now here are some great music moments from The Muppet Show!

Miss Piggy: Are vous ready to show moi's greatest hits?
Walter: Well, I looked through your list and you listed every song you ever did.
Miss Piggy: Naturally. All of my songs are my greatest hits.
