This is one of my all time Christmas songs....it exactly summarizes how I
feel about the holiday....when Kermit says "I know there is a light/I have
felt it burning bright/and I have seen it shining from afar" it perfectly
captures what is unversal about all the festivals about the winter solstice
"A time to put all differences aside" atheist, Jewish, Christian, and all
the others, it didn't matter what you are. This us a time to put all
differences aside and join hands and get to know each other!
Hoping the new Muppet Show might do a look-back at Christmas and remember
some of their best from the past. This one still gives me a lump in my
throat.
This is now the theme of Robin Williams.
RIP
Robin Williams,
The best god damn actor that ever existed.
♡ You made my childhood, Robin, and you'll always be on my mind. ♡
John Denver recites Alfie poem, then John Denver & Kermit sing a very inclusive Christmas song. (There are NO external voice-ins on this clip, as there are at ...
Thank you for this. This has been my favorite Christmas album since I was
little and I've been hoping to see videos of the actual special. I wish
they would come out with a DVD!
A great clip with John Denver! The Muppet Show was one of my favourite
shows back then. Jim Hension brought magic to the screen every week. He
completely scored when he brought JD on board. They worked amazingl;y well
together. Two great entertainers gone far too soon! Miss them both.
Hey Michael, I must have missed this comment. My computer was down for
almost two weeks. Thanks for commenting. The Muppet show was really fun I
do agree. Thank you Michelle
Oh, you're so wonderful. I confess I was actually looking for a John Denver
recording called "Molly" from one of his early albums, but I'm glad I found
you inside. You have a terrific tone in your voice
From the album John Denver & the Muppets: A Christmas Together. I know Christmas isn't for another couple of months yet but this is one of my favorite songs.
You are quite welcome and thank you for watching and commenting :)
Kermit and John Denver at the Russian Embassy
My father worked at the American Embassy in Russia in 1984. This is a family video from when Kermit and John Denver sang a duet. It's really poor quality as it ...
In your description, you didn't say that John and Kermit appeared at the
Embassy, but from the title, one would assume that. It is interesting that
the Muppets were also in Moscow for this event. Did they travel with JD for
the concerts? Thanks for posting.
Wow, this is something. As I recall, the event was at the Spasso House (the
US Ambassador's residence). I was a student in Moscow in 1984 and was in
the audience. It was a privilege to line up afterwards and meet JD and Jim
Henson.
ah memory's right when this came out they put the whole darn thing on 8
track 1980 something was the year Thank you so much for posting this and a
Merry Christmas to one and All
Christmas Lives All Year in my Heart.
Carry Christmas All Year in your Heart.
