"Somebody Come And Play" Today

"I first heard the song "Somebody Come And Play" at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. It was performed by Sesame Street characters Big Bird, Rosita and Elmo with a live full orchestra. It sounded amazing, and catchy too. Of course I then wanted to hear the original version from the television show, and thus found this DVD- Sesame Street Sings Karaoke.
And what a lot of fun it is. You see, on Sesame Street, there's something in the air that makes everyone want to sing. And just to start things off right, the DVD starts with the full version of my favorite Sesame Street song "Somebody Come And Play". Elmo and Rosita have a playdate but can't find in each other, and so break into this very cute song.
We then move on into the evening and the main part of the Karaoke show where the Sesame Street family are gathered together. Various Sesame Street favorites are performed by our Sesame Street friends: Rosita sings "You Say Hola" as does Gloria Estefan, Gabi and Miles sing "New Way To Walk" as do Destiny's Child, Telly and Baby Bear sing "Let's Go Driving" Gina and Elmo sing "Ladybug Picnic", Bob sings "People in Your Neighbourhood" as does Ben Stiller and Elmo sings "ABC-DEF-GHI". There's more too. It's also perfect singing learning for kids and adults in that we can learn through the Karaoke mistakes that the Sesame Street characters make.
Note that there are no on-screen lyrics for we the audience. The Sesame Street gang have their lyrics if they need them on their screen, but we don't on our screen. Perfect excuse to simply re-watch the DVD again and again.
All in all, a very enjoyable DVD and possibly the best Sesame Street DVD out there."
High-energy fun filled video for toddlers & parents!

"My 2 1/2 year old daughter cannot get enough of this! It is high energy, upbeat, full of catchy songs that she loves to sing with the characters! It has more music than storyline and is fast paced, which is perfect for short attention spans. It also seems to be a better quality than some of the older Sesame Street videos. If your child loves to sing with music, this is the perfect DVD! (Parents can sing along & have fun, too!)"
I love this DVD too!

"My son is 18-months old and loves the Wiggles. I like the Wiggles too, but enough is enough. This Sesame Street DVD was definately a nice change. The music is great! I even heard my husband humming one of the songs the other day."
