The thing is that the little kids who saw this piece of art (and they liked it) were probably very much unaware of the fact of Ray being completely blind. Imagine them realising this later after they grew up a little, and saw some of the nasty sides of sociaty.
Wow! A moment from the 11/16/75 episode of Cher. Haven't seen this one is a long time. Shame we can't see the entire episode. The Kermit and Chastity scene is kind of cute as well. At least that was shown on the VH1 version of this episode.
What Kermit was really tryna say was ..... It aint easy being BLACK, in a world where you dont belong because of that . In a world where you are treated less than crap and no else gives a damn .
And i wanna Express my LOVE and ADMIRATION to JIM and his BEAUTIFUL world of MUPPETS and to let him know that his WORLD has left an ever lasting impression on so people from so many walks of life ... Rest easy Jim
Lmao stop the cap and quit trying to guilt trip people “being black in a world where you are treated less than crap and no else gives a damn” no ones going to feel sorry for you suck it up
Does anyone have the Muppets' appearance on Cher's show from September 7, 1975? I'm looking for that one particular scene with Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem.
Sorry.This clip is actually sourced from a PBS special called "The Wonderful World of Jim Henson" that aired in 1994... But it's origin was that Cher program.
It's a perfectly valid question, it's just that bringing up a disability is a bit taboo because you quickly end up defining a person by it, when of course Ray Charles is more than a blind man.
nothing like being a grown man tearing up at a puppet singing with ray charles. what a time to be alive.
No lie
Ray Charles has one of the most powerful melodic voices I've ever heard, everything The Genius touches turns to gold.
It’s pretty amazing how beautiful this is and how great ray is. When he puts his arm around Kermit and he was never blind at all.
I am so moved by this duet! This was the year before I was born. RIP to Ray Charles and Jim Henson!
One of the loveliest moments in gifted humans creating a sublime glory. I love this.
Love the Muppets. Love Ray Charles. Thank you.
Thanks for the memories Kermit and Ray. I miss you both so much. save me a seat at the bar up in heaven.
God Rest his soul #RayCharles
One of the best duets of all time.
unironically :3
We miss you Ray
when music is universal,... i'm green but i don't give up. green can be wonderful.
I wish I watched this on television when it aired
Totally awesome
This was my favorite song made by my two favorite people/muppet. The lyrics speak to me .
Ray and Kermit sound really holesome. I love how Kermit became my very favorite Muppet of Sesame Street.
I LOVE YOU RAY
oh no this video is fading into lost memory
Clint Allen ray can never fade, so long as it's a Georgia, he will be on somebody's mind

It's not that easy being........?
Was this sesame street or muppet show?
I can't help but wonder if Ray Charles actually knows what green is.
Tom de Kler He didn't start losing his sight until he was 4-5 years old, and had completely lost it by age 7.
Ah, thanks!
+Tom de Kler I think being green is just a medifore
Tom de Kler your evil

Many people from liberal ideals have forgotten the meaning of this song. Your color is beautiful if you want it that way
The Orange Fuehrer needs to watch this until he understands it.
