Numbers (song)

"Numbers" is a Sesame Street song performed by Dinah Shore and Count von Count.
Dinah tells the Count that business was really good on Sesame Street today because she's down to her last song. Count is horrified that the counting of songs will soon come to an end and begs her not to sing it until he hears that it's about numbers.
The ensuing love song wistfully describes how numbers are used in our lives for things; without them, we wouldn't have a home address, a shoe size, or how fast you're growing. The tenderness culminates at the end with the Count shouting out what he's counted throughout the album: 37 musicians in the orchestra, 88 keys on the piano, 817 bars of music, and 225,612 musical notes.
