Who's Joe Raposo? He wrote a ton of the classic songs for Sesame Street, as well as for the animated movie "Raggedy Ann and Andy: A Musical Adventure," the theme song for "Three's Company," and music for various Dr. Suess specials.
My guess is one of Joe's most popular songs is "Bein' Green." Not one of my favorites, I'm sorry to say. It's a great song, sure, but I just don't like it. Anyway, here are my 10 favorite Joe Raposo songs, and included are clips from YouTube. BTW, not all of these are from Sesame Street, and these are in no particular order.
1. "Trying and Trying Again" (Sesame Street)
2. "Take a Breath" (or as a lot of us fans like to refer to it, "Take a Bweaff") (Sesame Street)
3. "A Little Bit at the Beginning" (Sesame Street)
4. "Blue" (Raggedy Ann and Andy)
5. "If I Could Only Paddle Like a Doggie" (Sesame Street)
6. "I'm an Aardvark" (Sesame Street) (if this one wasn't included, my sister would keel over)
7. "Somebody Come and Play" (Sesame Street)
8. Film of Chick Hatching (Sesame Street) (Music Only)
9. Letter Hoist (Sesame Street) (Music Only)
10. "Long Hard Climb" (Sesame Street)
