Revision as of 17:20, 2 January 2019
Written by | Jeff Moss |
Date | 1970 |
Publisher | Festival Attractions, Inc. |
First | Episode 0095 |
"I Love Trash" is Oscar the Grouch's signature song. It was first performed on Sesame Street in season 1, and has been retaped several times as the Oscar puppet evolved.
Oscar lists off several special items in his trash collection that he admires; including a tattered and worn sneaker that was given to him by his mother, a 13-month-old newspaper with smelly, cold fish wrapped inside, a defective clock, an old telephone, a broken umbrella, and a rusty trombone.
Earlier taped performances of the song have Oscar pulling the items he names out of his trash can. In a later remake, taped during season 22 (for Episode 2785), Oscar steps out of his trash can area and exhibits his trash spread across Sesame Street.
