A musical video for Sesame Street's 55th anniversary

[@Mattcai2004]

Before you say anything, if you're all wondering what's with the cameos during the "put down the duckie" section of this video, those are characters that had small involvements with Sesame Street (and maybe Muppet media in general): The Simpsons because they made a surprising cameo in a version with celebrities of the song "monster in the mirror". Baby Shark because of a collaboration in 2023 between Pinkfong and Sesame Street, which resulted in a video featuring Elmo, Abby Cadabby and Cookie Monster singing with Baby Shark and William. Arnold Shortman because he started out as a character in an animated Sesame Street sketch called "Arnold Rides His Chair" before becoming a Nicktoon. C-3PO and R2D2 because they made two guest appearances in Sesame Street episodes 1364 and 1396. The Baby Looney Tunes because they made a parody of Sesame Street called "Caraway Street" in their show's episode "I strain". Luxo Jr. because he and Luxo Sr. appeared in a series of animated shorts on Sesame Street The Puppet Pals from "Dexter's laboratory" and "The Powerpuff Girls" because... well, they're clear parodies of Bert and Ernie. Theo and Cleo Lion because Big Bird, Bert and Ernie made a surprising cameo in an episode of "Between the lions" Batman and Robin because they appeared in an episode of Sesame Street teaching about how to safely cross the street while trying to catch the Joker. The Wicked Witch of the west because she infamously appeared in a 1976 episode that got banned. The Pink Panther because he once guest starred in a Sesame Street segment produced by DePatie-Freleng, demonstrating the letter K through karate techniques. Also, "Put down the duckie" did have guest stars in it, so it's meant to be a tribute to the guest appearances in Sesame Street throughout the years.

Now this is some awesome animation

@@michaelbonner4126 thanks, but I wouldn't call it "animation". It's more of an animatic and a clip show.
