"African Alphabet" is a Sesame Street song initially performed by Paul Simon and the South African a cappella group Ladysmith Black Mambazo in season 18. (EKA: Episode 2480) The following season, the song was remade with Kermit the Frog and a group of Anything Muppets (voiced by Ladysmith Black Mambazo), made up of five different patterns: Fat Blue, Lavender, Pumpkin, Purple, and Reddish Magenta. The creatures of the savanna, including numerous frogs and birds, sing along as well. This version adds an extra verse by Kermit, who recites a short story in which each word begins with a consecutive letter of the alphabet as they are sung.
