The lyricist of the song also wrote the episode. So, I theorize the song was originally intended for this episode, but they put it in the other for time reasons.
AH, I see. Then that might explain it. I still don't see how they couldn't have gotten his voice-over somehow. Billy B. was doing the voice as a separate recording, so it doesn't make sense that they couldn't have gotten Steve at some point after to dub over the lines.
Muppets Most Wanted was filmed between January and April 2013; season 45 was filmed in the fall of 2013. So, unless Steve had to cancel to do some post-production stuff or dubbing, there's no Disney-related reason for his absence.

Oh wow, I'm dumb. I thought they played Repair Monster the Musical because it had a bicycle in it. Then I realized the word of the day was "repair." D'oh!
I found, what seems to be, the first few minutes of the pilot:

Seeing an extended piece, it looks pretty decent (that song is really dam-n good). I too can't see it going beyond season 1...
I liked "Spanish Me, English Me", mainly for the fact that it was an AM segment that wasn't a spoof. We haven't had one of those since, coincidentally, "I Love My Hair".
The similarities are that he's out of the set the main series is shot in and in the real world interacting with real people and things, and pretty much kept to his own vignettes.
