I also think it's weird that 123 Sesame Street is edited even though it was included on the Songs from the Street set, but I wonder if music rights for audio releases are the same or different as music rights for video releases. I am most dissapointed about 123 Sesame Street being cut, but the others aren't too big of a deal to me. Regarding the fact that Stevie Wonder wrote it for the show, he might have charged too much for it, or he might have charged too much for his presence on the set (or might not have wanted to appear on a Sesame Street DVD release). I was really hoping that, if volume two is just more episodes from the same five years, that his entire episode would be included.

I wonder if Consider Yourself will be cut from the Edgar Bergen episode of The Muppet Show when season two comes out (of course, whether that was included here wouldn't really determine whetehr Disney could get the rights for the second season set, and I guess the same applies to I Whistle a Happy Tune).
