I Like Myself

"I Like Myself" is a Sesame Street song performed by Dinah Shore and Big Bird.
When Dinah asks Big Bird why he hasn't asked her for a song yet, Big Bird says he doesn't have anything to sing about. He complains about being an eight foot tall clumsy bird who can't even fly, and says that there's nothing about himself to like.
Determined to convince him otherwise, Dinah takes the lead with an echo parable in which Bird Bird eventually learns to like himself — even love himself — by identifying the qualities about himself that he's proud of such as the way he hums, sings, and speaks... even the way he snores.
Near the end, The Count takes an opportunity to declare how much he likes himself, too — almost as much as he likes counting — and brings the song tally to seven.
