Can't remember the official title but there is one from Sugarland that is pretty cool. And I am pretty sure there is one by Alicia Keys set to Fallin.....

Love the James Blunt one and Nora Jones!!

This one isn't sung by a favorite artist, but by Kermit on the show. I don't know the name of it but it starts, "If I were a poet, I'd write you a sonnet, it would say I love you. Your name would be on it." It's very sweet.

After all of these different things, the end goes, "I don't have any diamonds, but all I have to do is look at you to show you how much I love you." I sing it to DD. It has a lot of Falalalalas in it. Seriously, one of my most favorite songs ever, not just SS songs.

I feel that way about the one Ernie sings, "I Don't Want to Live on the Moon." I sing it to DS2 at night. I have always loved that song. Beautiful!

Putumayo Kids has a Sesame Street Playground now:

I don't own it and not exactly what you are looking for, but it looks interesting.

Sarach McLachlan does a version of Rainbow Connection on For the Kids. I guess that wasn't sesame street, but close :)
