summary

From 2013, Alex Lacamoire composed the music for the video with the Sesame Street gang teaching children the Alphabet with one basic example as they sing through the alphabet from A to Z.

On a white background, we see Elmo walking in from the right who then tells the viewer to get ready as it's time to sing the alphabet and dances a little bit. He ducks from the screen on the start of the alphabet routine starting at A which Abby Cadabby moves close to the viewer, then moves down in favor for Bert to appear in a rotated angle on the right of the screen by the B. From C to D, Cookie Monster tells himself as what C starts for and brings out the Cookie which starts with D as in Desert albeit the food starts with C. Elmo comes back in a different rotation angle and counts his name as what begins the letter E, then a Frog arrives next to him and ribbits. Grover appears causing both Elmo and the Frog to both hop away from him and Grover shouts "G is for Grover", then a pig (named as a hog per lyrics) jumps on Grover's hands and oinks. Bert and Ernie carry a bobblehead grasshopper and a jar of strawberry jam whereas one is called an Insect and the fruit preserves is called a Jam. Walking from right to left with a cat, Elmo mentions "K is for Kitten", next Murray (who is the only person speaking) along with Ovejita pop up therein sings "L is for Lamb" (which would be Ovejita) and even sing M as in his own name. Pink sparkles by Abby's magic make the animated noodle appear which pans up and the others pan in horizontal directions, next Oscar's trash can pans up and tells his name that starts with O and then Elmo re-appears before the Poodle (that licks Oscar) comes up next to him in his trash bin. Big Bird and a queen duck come by and he gives a tiny bit of information of what the queen likes to do. Rosita pops up first and then a sandwich from the right gives a remark of "S is for Snack" which she goes after it and then Telly carries a Tuba who states "T is for Telly" as well as the instrument which he blows when he leaves. Baby Bear and Elmo hold one lute each, but the Ukulele is brought up first by Baby Bear before a violin used by another. Back to Oscar with Slimey (that starts with W as in worm), we see a closeup view of the worm making noise. The last two letters before Z is brought up by Grover which one is the Xylophone and then Y as in the first person (You). Yet, Zoey pops up alone and then the animals including Butch, Mr. Huggles, Poco Loco Bird, two monkeys and a female penguin shout "and Zoo" and make their noises. After the first time throughout the alphabet, Elmo signals the viewer to sing it again, then we repeat the alphabet but this time with certain tweaks including Slimey's different giggling noise and the Zoo animal part being mirrored. The whole Sesame Street gang groups up with Elmo and they all sing that the alphabet is through and they finally duck from the screen.

A dreamy tune starts at the beginning and then a rock guitar is played when the Alphabet starts.
