Singbad the Sailor

Singbad the Sailor is a musical sailor who appears in Episode 2975 of Sesame Street. As his name suggests, he's not adept at singing, yet entertains Grouches all over the world with his off-key shanties. His name is a reference to the fabled Sinbad the Sailor.
He comes to Sesame Street to start up the "Singbad the Sailor School of Singing," which churns out star-student Telly in a matter of minutes. When conversing with Lillian, he learns that non-Grouch listeners prefer to hear on-key singers. She sings a song with him that helps get him to a right voice.
Later, he attempts to serenade Oscar and Grundgetta, but finds he can only sing pleasantly now. Telly, his best student, helps him regain his lost ability to sing poorly. Oscar then tells Singbad to hit the road, lest any other Sesame Street residents try to fix him again.
