Eurovision Fact #338:

Eurovision songs have snuck their way into the popular children's program Sesame Street many times.

In 1978, a Sesame Street LP was released entitled 'Sing Sang Song Singalong,' which featured the 1976 German Eurovision entry, 'Sing, Sang, Song' by Les Humphries Singers. In 2010, the Danish production of Sesame Street, Sesamgade, aired an episode that featured Elmo dancing to the 1979 Danish entry 'Disco Tango's by Tommy Seebach.
