    Out of all the skits from the original Muppet Show, this is the one that has always stuck with me throughout the decades

      @@hannahlarocco4699 I've always been a music guy. And there's just something about how the song is played 100% straight, no jokes or satire that always stuck out to me.

      Turns out that the new Mayhem show explains that Flloyd can play guitar but has trouble with chords that require a pinky

      Jerry Nelson was the best singer of all the Muppeteers. He also did Robin, Crazy Harry, Herry Monster, Farley, Mumford, Biff, Gobo, Marjory, and so many more.

    When I heard George Harrison's acoustic version on Anthology 3, this sketch had a huge effect on how my mind envisioned the scenario of him playing it.

    I actually like this version better than the original! Who knew a heap of felt (and other craft supplies) could be so expressive? Reason old school Muppets were always my favorite- it was like magic

    That makes sense. Paul McCartney is left-handed, I thought they might have done it because of that.

      Floyd was actually based off John Lennon; so if we’re going by that he’d be right handed.

      And Paul McCartney was a bass player, and he could play lead guitar and piano. Roger Waters played a lot of acoustic guitar (he has a very particular style), John Deacon played the electric piano on 'You're my best friend' etc.
      Lot of musicians are multi-instrumentalists.
