Sing yourself silly!

VHS cover of the Random House Home Video release

Sing Yourself Silly! is the second volume of the Sesame Songs Home Video series. It featured mostly goofy songs from Sesame Street. It was released on April 30, 1990, a month before Jim Henson passed away. Starring Big Bird, Ernie, and more.

Editor's note: Nobody edits this page, except me (14brunov). Don't add too many songs in this, okay. Only one song from another show should be put in. This is not Disney's Sing-Along Songs.
