Don't Pass It By submitted by priestlr on July 9, 2012, 11:40am This Ablum uses contemporary musicians to breathe new life into some classics remembered from childhood. My fav's include "Rainbow Connection" by Weezer & Paramore, "Mahna mahna" by The Fray, and "Wishing Song" by Airborne Toxic Event.

I love it! submitted by krayla on June 18, 2014, 3:40pm This is an amazing compilation of Muppet songs! Ok Go's rendition of the theme song is unique and addictive. Great for adults who want to reminisce.

The Rainbow Connection submitted by purchasingqueen on July 24, 2016, 3:30pm Muppet favorites revisited by popular music groups.

Uneven, But Generally Good submitted by Meginator on June 24, 2017, 9:37am This was a hit-or-miss album for me, as many tribute and cover albums are, but I rated it highly because the artists who really *get* the source material do so exceptionally well. The album has its share of songs that are either too close to the original as to be nearly indistinguishable (in which case, what's the point?) or completely bizarre renditions that bear no real relation to the originals. But, man, when artists such as Alkaline Trio, Sondre Lerche, Andrew Bird, Brandon Saller & Billy Martin, and Matt Nathanson hit that sweet spot, "The Green Album" is everything that a cover/tribute album should be. This is definitely worth listening to if you're a Muppet fan.
