This made me burst out laughing really hard

Let this be a lesson not to watch Elmo's world and post at the same time. it's a dangerous mix

Elmo's Song is pretty great.

it's ellie's favorite song right now

You might be hard pressed to find anyone who doesn't agree that the song has a Beatles quality about it, or a Beatles aesthetic. I think it certainly does. I talk issue with the notion that it's a Beatles ripoff. What song (or which songs) is is ripping off exactly?

lets talk about what sesame street song Mind Your Manners is most likely to rip off.

I don't think it's particularly Beatles-esque at all.

It's got a kind of soft-focus 60s pop vibe about it, but there's nothing I could specifically relate to any Beatles song (or even sound) about it.

I've seen a few other cookie monster tom waits mashups but that one is by FAR the best.

Once again, Speeno, you're the exception that proves the rule.
