07:57The sheep hopped 13 times.
07:59And there were eight other little animals that hopped at least once.
08:04Altogether, there were 62 hops.
08:07Oh, I can't stand it.
08:12This is Big Bird.
08:13I'm making this celebrity guest appearance here on Sesame Music Video
08:18to thank each and every one of you for tuning in
08:22and to remind my good friend, Count Von Count,
08:25that it's about time for the number five song in the Count's Countdown.
08:30So, come on, Count, play us some rock and roll.
08:35Thank you, Big Bird.
08:37Oh, you look marvelous.
08:38Okay, our number five song this week is a real sleeper
08:44from a brand new band called Over The Top.
08:48Not only is this tune the very last word in rock and roll,
08:52but it features the very last letter in the alphabet,
08:57the letter Z.
08:58It's called ZZ Blues, and it's coming at you now.
09:22Well, I've seen a lot of letters and it seems to me
09:27There's something real special about the letter Z
09:31But boy, we're sick of singing about zippers and zoos
09:36There ain't enough Z words, got the ZZ Blues
09:41Yeah, you can stick with Zebra cause it's tried and true
09:45You made me mention Zebra just for something new
09:50But once you've shown them zebras, they're the zippers and zoos
09:55Your most elder zebras got the ZZ Blues
09:59Oh, time to write a song about the ZZ Blues
10:04Come on and sing along about the ZZ Blues
10:09Guess I could be wrong about the ZZ Blues
10:13Going zany with the ZZ Blues
10:18We're zooming back to Zipper cause it's still the best
10:23Zipping back to Zebra and we need a rest
10:28Getting tired of thinking, yeah, we paid our dues
10:32There ain't enough Z words, got the ZZ Blues
10:52Only band I ever worked with to fall asleep and keep playing the blues
10:57Guess I might as well join them and cop some ZZ myself
11:12Time for a Count's Countdown Extra

14:15The Beatles performing the haunting
14:18And the beautiful letter B
14:37When I find I can't remember
14:41What comes after A and B for C
14:45My mother always whispers

17:29On deck now is the song that nailed down
17:33The number three slot on the Count's Countdown this week
17:36It stars a group that has taken the little bit of talent they have

22:37And doodidak!
23:28Where'd everybody go?
23:32Perhaps you noticed that one of Ernie's friends on that video was none other than yours truly, Count Von Count.
23:40Yes, that was me counting all those bubbles.
23:43And believe you me, it wasn't an easy job.
23:47But somebody had to do it, right?
23:49And say, I bet you're wondering just how many bubbles there were altogether in that tubby.
23:55Well, I'll tell you, altogether, there were exactly 247,561 bubbles.
24:07And now, I say now, the moment of truth has finally come.
24:13The time when we play the number one song on the chart.
24:17Of course, those of you who watch the Count's Countdown show regularly here on SMV know that there's one thing
24:26you can count on week after week after week.
24:28And that one thing is this.
24:30As long as I, Count Von Count, am the host of this program, the same song will always be number
24:37one.
24:42And now, for the 1,943rd week in a row, and still holding firm, here's our number one video.
24:57Chris and the Alpha Beats singing, Count It Higher!
25:07You told me you could count.
25:09You said there's nothing to it.
25:11Well, if you're so good at counting, let me hear you do it.
25:14One, two, three.
25:18Mercy, is that the best you can do?
25:20You've got to count it higher.
25:22Count it higher.
25:23I'd like to know who told you you could stop at three.
25:27You've got to count it higher.
25:29Count it higher.
25:31Baby, if you want to count with me.
25:34Come on, let me hear you count again.
25:36One, two, three.
25:40Higher.
25:42Higher.
25:45You've got to count it higher.

25:48Five just isn't good enough at all you see.
25:51You've got to count it higher.
25:54You've got to count it higher.
25:54Count it higher.
26:05Count it higher.
26:20Now go back to one and start to count again.
26:24Are you ready?
26:25One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
26:35Yeah!
26:35Yeah!
26:37Count it higher.

26:47Count it higher.
26:50Count it, count it higher.
26:54Count it, count it, count it higher.
26:57Count it higher.
27:17Well, that about wraps it up for this edition of the Counts Countdown.
27:23Be sure to tune in again next week, when once again Count It Higher will be our number one video
27:30clip.
27:31Until then, for Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch, and all of us here at Sesame Music Video,
