This childhood memory popped into my head!

Did you ever see this clip from "Sesame Street"?

It was my FAVORITE clip.
It still brings me chills and almost makes me weep with joy, just as it did every time when I was a little boy.  :)

Yeah that Vivaldi guy wrote the music :)

    Indeed. That's Vivaldi's Concerto for Guitar and Strings in D Major.

    Me too.    Just lovely.  I remember reading that as we age beauty brings tears.  I didn't believe it, but now, I sometimes experience it.  This post was edited by Thriftymaid at August 26, 2021 5:46 PM MDT

    I watched a lot of Sesame Street when I was a kid but I don’t remember this at all. I mostly remember Grover saying Neeaaar, Faaaaar, Neeeeeeeeaaaaar, faaaaaaaaaaar.

    From what I remember, this flower clip was not shown so much as Grover's appearances (I liked Grover a lot, too), but, boy, when this flower music clip came on, I would stop everything and just sit still and watch and listen and breathe.  :)

      Grover was always my tip-top, number A-One, bestest, favoritess, out in front, all-time Sesame Street Muppet character!





    (My favorite human character was Maria. I had a crush on her since I was about four years old, and it never went away for all the years I watched that show.)

      Relax, Deputy Fife: it is quite obviously an intentionally misspelled word.

    I remember her from when I watched that show :) She was having a baby when I watched it. I just looked her up and she was on there for over 40 years.

    I'm glad you found it lovely.  :)

    I'm impressed with my good taste, even as a young little guy, ha!  :)

    The oldest Sesame Street clip I can recall is this one ... bear in mind it was more than forty years ago
