“What’s the Name of That Song?” was written by Sam Pottle and David Axlerod. It first appeared in 1974, in season 6 of Sesame Street. The song has been performed many times since then, usually performed by an ensemble.
The first instance of the song follows the residents of Sesame Street as they try to figure out what a song stuck in their heads is. The song starts with David (Northern Calloway), who is then joined by Bob (Bob McGrath), then Susan (Loretta Long) and Gordon (Roscoe Orman) come out and ask what the song is. Maria (Sonia Manzano) then starts singing the song and is accosted by the others asking what it is. Bert (Frank Oz) and Herry Monster (Jerry Nelson) say they know the name of the song, but they do not. Luis (Emilio Delgado) then comes out to ask what the song is (in Spanish). Then Oscar (Caroll Spinney) pops up to ask what the song is and complain. The Count (Jerry Nelson) then adds to the few remembered lyrics. Mr. Macintosh (Chet O’Brien) appears with his fruit stand to join the group. Mr. Hooper (Will Lee) asks what the name of the song is. And the ensemble walks off saying different songs, leaving David to finish the number.

Cobigail Playlist
Feel free to take a look and the songs and reconstruct the playlist elsewhere if you don’t use Spotify. Or just take the songs you like and use that as a starting point for your own playlist. Do whatever have fun.
#What’s the name of that song is my favorite non-Count-centered Sesame Street song#Count von Count songs are in their own category due to he’s my favorite.#I like Transylvania Love Call and Count up to Nine and Transylvania 12345 and I’m basically all of them#Anyway every time you go to talk to Cobigail she’s alone in her clearing singing to herself trying to remember the lyrics I’m to her song#so yeahg#Haunted by an animatic I’ll never make moment. (Oscar’s lines would go to Capo if you’re wondering)#Great god grove#cobigail#Youtube
