(The Sesame Street theme as it was heard during the 1980s plays over the title card, which fades to Ernie and Bert in the recording studio)
Ernie: Good evening, folks! I'm Ernie.
Bert: And I'm Bert.
Ernie: And this is the Sesame Street 1980s Music Show, where we play the best music of the '0s. And first, we have a request from my Rubber Duckie.
Bert: Oh brother...
(Ernie holds up his rubber duckie, making it squeak)
Ernie: What's that? (puts Rubber Duckie closer to his ear as he sqeuaks it) Okay, here is our first song of the day, D-U-C-K-I-E!
(screen flips to D-U-C-K-I-E)
Ernie: Now, wasn't mthat a great song, Bert?
Bert: Well, I don't know, but if you want a song about a really good topic, check this out.
(screen slides to Have You Ever Looked at a Paper Clip)
Ernie: And now we are ready to take some calls.
Bert: Oh, yeah! Don't be afraid! Call our toll-free number, 555-1234. Call it now!
(phone rings. Ernie presses the speaker phone button)
Ernie: Hello, you're on the air!
Oscar: NO!
Ernie: What?
Oscar: The word is no!
Bert: No, as in people shouldn't request music?
Oscar: No!
Ernie: Well, uh, let's make the better out of this situation. Here is The Word is "No".
(screen zooms back to The Word is "No")
Bert: And now, here is some good music for those who have the blues!
(scene slides diagonally from top right corner to Me Gotta Be Blue, followed by Fuzzy and Blue)
Big Bird: Hello, Ernie.
Ernie: Hi, Big Bird.
Big Bird: Hello, Bert.
Bert: Oh, hi, Big Bird.
Big Bird: Can you play a song live from Birdland?
Ernie: I don't see why not.
Bert: Maybe we have a pigeon song.
Ernie: Uh, Bert, we don't have any pigeon songs from Birdland.
(scene fades to The Birdland Jump, followed by Wheels on my Feet)
Ernie: I just got a call from somebody who wants to know how to sleep and dance. Well, here is a song to help you.
(cut to Dance Myself to Sleep, followed by Just the Way You Are and Rappin' Alphabet)
Bert: Alright, we are still taking calls.
Ernie: We sure are.
Blue Caller: Hello, I would likie to hear a song from my heros, Chrissy and the Alphabeats.
Ernie: Okay, I guess we can arrange that.
(screen scrolls down to You're Alive, followed by It's Alive)
Mexican Caller: Hola, amigos! I would like to hear a song about the word "hola".
Bert: Well, we've got just the song for you!
Mexican Caller: Thanks.
(cut to Hola)
Bert: And now, for you opera fans out there, here is Placedo Flamingo with the Italian Street Song!
(screen slides to The Italian Street Song, cutting the introduction)
Ernie: Okay, bring on the next caller!
(it's a Honker, who honks his nose)
] Bert: Okay, what song would you like for us to play?
(The honker honks again)
Bert: Uh, I didn't, uh, catch that.
Ernie: He said that he'd like to hear Honk Around the Clock.
(the honker honks enthusiastically)
(scene ncuts to Honk Around the Clock, followed by If I Was a Cloud in the Sky)
Ernie: And now we will play our top five most-requested songs that we haven't played yet.
Bert: Oh, yeah! (Bert and Ernie pause for a few seconds) Uh, Ernie, what are the five most-requested songs?
Ernie: I forget, Bert.
Bert: It was you're job to write down the list of top five most-requested songs....
Ernie: I did not have to write it down.
Bert: That's write them down!
(screen flips to Write it Down)
Bert: Well, luckily we got a call reminding us of the most-requested songs.
Ernie: And here they are!
(screen slides, leading to Proud to Be a Cow, Put Down the Duckie, Danger's No Stranger, Hi De Ho Man, and The Batty Bat)
