Ha ha I laugh at something different every time I watch this! I particularly love the bit where Jose sings 'he's lost his duck-y' hilarious when sung in an operatic manner.
OMG this is sooo hillarious, this just goes to show you how humane stars should be, and also that Carreras has a multi-talented personality!! It's all about Earnie's Ducky!!! LOL
A few of us together pieced together the words: Ernie's unhappy 'cause he can't find his buddy. No faithful tubmate to float with on life's pond. It is so depressing. His whole it future looks muddy, and so does Ernie, because he can't take a bath.
He looked inside his trusty toybox and the closet, But all he found were toys and clothing and some shoes, OOOOOH... He lost his ducky, how unlucky, where was it? He lost his duck. Now he is stuck with the blues.
José Carreras was singing those words to the song, Vesti la Giubba which I prefer to call Mets la veste which is from the opera, Pagliacci which I prefer to call Paillasse, wasn't he?
I just found this clip, and oh my good ness!!! I didn't know Jose had it in him. He looks so serious every time, but for him to appear on Sesame Street! I could hardly understand a word of what he was saying because of his thick accent, so thank you, Tuadolcefanciulla. And he sang this to the tune of Vesti La Giubba?! LOL!!! Again, I didn't know he had it in him. Makes me love him all the more. Love you, Jose!
Le saviez-vous José Carreras était née Josep Maria Carreras i Coll sur le 5 de decembre 1946 dans la ville de Barcelona dans la province de Barcelona dans la région de Catalonia, l'Espagne?
@@operaforever13 These are the alternative lyrics he sang to Mets la veste from Paillasse by Ruggero Leoncavallo and I wrote them in French while he sang them in English from 0:39 to 2:14 because opera is sometimes performed in France; Ernie est malheureux car il ne peut pas trouver son copain. Pas de fidèle compagnon à flotter sur l'étang de la vie. C'est tellement déprimant. Tout son avenir est boueux et fait aussi Ernie car il ne peut pas prendre un bain. Il a regardé à l'intérieur de son coffre à jouets fidèle et le placard. Mais tout ce qu'il a trouvé étaient des jouets et des vêtements et des chaussures, AAAAAH… Il a perdu son duckie, quelle malchance, où était-il? Il a perdu son canard. Maintenant il est coincé avec le blues.
And here are the original lyrics to the tune of Mets la veste from Paillasse by Ruggero Leoncavallo; Jouer! alors que pris de delire, je ne sais plus ce que je dis, et ce que je fais! Et pourtant, tu dois... fais un effort! Ah! n'es-tu pas un homme? Tu es Palliasse! Mets la veste, et enfarine-toi le visage, Le public paie, et ils veulent rire. Et si Arlequin te vole Colombine, ris, Paillasse, et tous applaudiront! Transforme en rires les affres et les pleurs, en une grimace les sanglots et le chagrin! Ah! ris, Paillasse, de ton amour brise! Ris de la douleur, qui te ronge le coeur!
He's a good sport! I love Jose Carreras!
Carreras is brilliant here - he takes it so seriously!!!
Thank you operabeauty - what a little gem.
Bravo Josep!
How wonderful to see him so young and in fantastic shape (vocal)..

What is so hilarious about a guy crying when he finishes singing opera?
OH MY GOD! AWESOME!
He's wonderful, lol! A great duo!
What a voice, guys!He was really at the top.
OMG this is sooo hillarious, this just goes to show you how humane stars should be, and also that Carreras has a multi-talented personality!! It's all about Earnie's Ducky!!! LOL
What was Jose Carreras crying for in the end?
We love you Carreras
Wonderful that such a huge opera star pairs with the Muppets! Some children will think of Ernie's ducky when they hear Pagliacci someday.
oh my god this is awsome!!

Even with this 'invented text' for the show, Jose C sounds sublime. He can make opera out of everything

Absolutely fabulous, sings this silly song to the tune of Vesti la giubba! ahaha!

it didn't belong to anybody stupid. just enjoy music for what it is. you want competition, watch the NBA. this is art.
RIP Ernie (1936-1990)
Had to come back for a second look - this is so great! Was this on The Muppets Show?
Bravo Ernie...hahahaha
If Ernie really did lose his rubber duckie, it wouldn't have just gotten up and flew away.
It's a case of personal taste, my favourite Edgardo is Pavarotti.
lol...:))
I disagree. I think that Mario del Monaco was the best Canio.
haha.
pagliacci.
NOT TRUE!!!!!! I like him in some roles (Don Jose, Rudolpho, lighter roles), but to say that he is good at any dramatic tenor repertoire is a lie!
