Something for Thursday

From The Muppet Show. This is one of my very favorite songs from that show; there’s just something about this that’s so pleasing…maybe it’s the simplicity of the song, combined with its lovely backing vocal, that gets me. The song was featured twice on The Muppet Show, once by Danny Kaye and this, by Charles Azvanour. I like this one better, with the kids in the schoolhouse singing the “two and two are four” bit in silhouette. I don’t think The Muppet Show always gets the credit it deserves for introducing sheer beauty to the world.
