"Count Up to Nine" was sung by the Count with Ftatateeta and the Bats in their castle (with added musical effects by some distant wolves). It is written in a 1950s doo-wop style, as the singer croons to "his baby," pleading that she counts up to 9.

Notes

The background singers are male voices (including Richard Hunt's, Chris Cerf's and Jerry Nelson's) sped up.
