Also, check out Muppet wiki athttp://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page. if you check under the character section, the only thing you can do is figure out which character they don't have.

Mahna-Mahna (the dash is important, it's his name) and the Snowths performed it on the Ed Sullivan Show and then on the first episode of The Muppet Show.

The Snowths were dropped and glasses gained when Mahna changed his looks for Sesame Street and assumed the name Bip Bipadotta with two girls as back-up singers. Another version of him appears as a rather sinister looking creature---too horrifying for words---who sang the song in the early years of Sesame Street.

Whether Mahna-Mahna or Bip Bipadotta, they both (HE both?) sang other songs as well.

They used to show Ed Sullivan show clips on PBS, and I've seen that. Man was Jim skilled at his craft.. I mean you would really have to practice that to get the timing perfect, and the technical aspect, oh brother. It's no puppet show.

Nope. And puppetry is a LOT harder than people think it is to make it good. The more seamless and life-like it is, the easier it looks, the harder it is to achieve that!

Yeah, and he makes it all look so easy too.
