Date 1974
Publisher Sesame Street Inc.

"Language Song" is a Sesame Street song from Episode 0740.

Gordon overhears a Spanish conversation between Maria and Luis, which is simply them discussing moving furniture in her apartment. Gordon admits that he finds Spanish such a beautiful-sounding language and is a bit underwhelmed that the two were talking about something so mundane. The pair adopt the personas of Latin lovers and launch into a tango song (complete with a dance break) in which they make similarly uninteresting phrases (such as "Would you please blow your nose?") sound romantic just by saying them in Spanish.
