Would there be enough songs for to list a "best of" for the human characters on the show?

I know Bob definitely sang some songs on the show, as did Olivia, David, Gina, Mike, Savion, Luis and Maria, and Gordon and Susan. And Linda signed some songs! :smile:
(Did Mr. Hooper sing any songs?)
Does anyone have some ideas on songs that could be listed for them? (either collectively or individually if any one person did enough songs for that.)
Here's the ones I can think of.

Bob and Susan- "One of These Things"
Human Cast- "What's the Name of That Song?"
Mike- "A Very Simple Dance to Do"
Savion- "Rhyming Game"
Bob- "The People in your Neighborhood"

I'd definitely want to include the songs from "Christmas Eve on Sesame Street".
"True Blue Miracle"- (Gordon, Susan, Bob, Olivia, Maria, Luis, and David)
"Keep Christmas With You"-Bob and Linda (whole cast at end)

Are there any others? I'm sure there's plenty more that I just can't remember right now.
This is a fresh idea! i like it. The grown ups were an important aspect of the music of Sesame Street. Would you include songs they sang with the Muppets or just the humans alone? For example, would you include a song that Big Bird and Maria sang together? Also, just to correct something, remember that Luis was not in Christmas Eve On Sesame Street, so he would have to be removed from that group and replaced with Mr. Hooper because he WAS in it. Mr. Hooper did sing on the show. One of the songs that comes to mind is "I've Got Two" with Big Bird, Oscar and the other humans. I don't recall him singing that much on his own without the others, but he did sing. One solo that I can think of off the bat that Hooper sang was the lullabye to Big Bird that was in German about a green duck.
