Except maybe The Count, that is. But he’s not in this clip. Instead, you’ll have to content yourself with Canada’s favourite export:

Other than Feist, Sesame Street has some pretty big names lined up for guest spots for its 39th season (Will Arnett, Jessica Alba, David Beckham and Jack “Good Luck Making Him Kid-Friendly” Black to name just a few), but this clip set to air on August 11 leaked the other day and I’ll be darned if it isn’t the cutest thing ever.

With kids aged 8 and 3, I’ve seen more than my fair share of Sesame Street in the last few years, and in my humble opinion, this is one of the better artist-involved song revisions they’ve done in a while. It’s right up there with Norah Jones’ “Don’t Know Why Y Didn’t Come” or James Blunt’s very clever triangle ditty based on “You’re Beautiful.”
