This is to honor the memory of Jerry Nelson who gave Count Von Count and the High Priest of the Skeksis their voices:pray:

Thistle dancing to the Batty Bat song from Sesame Street:aww:

[link]
In old Transylvania when I was a lad
Our castle was cold but we never were sad
We learned to be happy
Wed dance round the hall
And learning to count was the key to it all
By counting each count I knew just where to start
And one special step has stayed close to my heart

One two three, spread out the cape
One two three, twirl round the floor
One two three, left foot you swing
One two three, then start to sing
One two three, loud as you please
One two three, counting with ease
One two three, doing the batty bat
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One two three count
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
Wont you dance with me doing the batty bat

So now in my own castle I can enjoy
This wonderful dance that I learned as a boy
I see just how wise was my whole family
They taught me to count and so now look at me
I'm counting and dancing and I swear that its true
If you do the same you will be happy too

One two three, spread out the cape
One two three, twirl round the floor
One two three, left foot you swing
One two three, then start to sing
One two three, loud as you please
One two three, counting with ease
One two three, doing the batty bat
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
One two three count
Batty batty bat batty bat batty bat batty bat
Won't you dance with me doing the batty bat

Thistle is mine.

Maybe you can :idea:

PS: Jerry Nelson also did the voice of the High Priest Skeksis (Skekzok)- the one who summons the crystal bats. (hmmm nice connection

'Crystal bats fly!
Search the land!
Search the water!
Search the Sky!!!!'

I found out via one of the deviations here and the Jim Henson Wiki.

I was quite amazed to find that out- both characters can summon bats and live in dark castles :D
