I came across that clip when searching the videos on YouTube and also fast-forwarding my A&E Biography Sesame Street VHS.

So glad this has been uploaded officially, and in good quality:
I love this so much. Frank's ad-libs as Bert, and Ernie's complete obliviousness make this really hilarious.
And I love Bert's meltdown at the end, lol.

I know, the meltdown is what really sells it for me. Much like classic Nostalgia Critic, the more extreme Bert's reactions are, the funnier, and him getting all shrilly is just gold!

I think that this is one of the best E&B bits that was produced after Jim Henson's passing. This is not only a catchy ensemble number (with LOTS of Muppets here), but Frank and Steve were still in their prime. Plus, Bert starts screaming so much that he sounds like Grover! Can't go wrong with that.
