Kinda weird to hear a non-hip-hop arrangement of "What I Am"; if you're inclined to think so, I guess that says something about the modern methods of Sesame songwriting.

But yeah, that was swell. They kinda threw me there by having Elmo's favorite song not be "Elmo's Song."

That was nice. Too bad Oscar and The Count weren't part of the actual concert since they have so many great songs, but that's a minor thing. The set was a bit more varied than I was expecting; didn't expect Sing After Me or the Pinball Number Count.

I felt it was odd to have Big Bird and Bert do sing after me, seeing as that’s Ernie and Elmo’s song.
The pinball song being sung was nice to hear.
Also, why didn’t Cookie sing something with another character? Everybody else did except the Count and Oscar, but they weren’t part of the concert.
