Description "C is for Cookie" is Cookie Monster's signature theme song. The original version of the song featured Cookie Monster standing behind a giant letter C, with a black background that eventually lightened to reveal a monster chorus including Grover, Fenwick, Herry Monster, Oscar the Grouch, and Billy.

In the early 1990's (First: Episode 2710), Candice Bergen paid a visit to the Fix-It Shop to have her radio repaired. To test it out, she lip-synced to the song, complete with some visual aids. A brief instrumental from the song also appears as the sketch's ending music button.

In 1993, a new operatic version was taped, featuring opera singer Marilyn Horne as Cleopatra in an Egyptian setting, with a pyramid made entirely out of cookies in the background. At the end of the song once Cleopatra is carried away out of sight, Cookie Monster appears in Egyptian clothing and pulls a cookie off the pyramid, causing it to collapse with a huge crash. This version includes a brief introductory verse (titled "All the Sky Has Turned Gray"), written by Luis Santeiro and Dave Conner. (First: Episode 3189)

In Season 30, in which everyone loves this current version of today, another new version/a modern version was filmed, once again sung by Cookie Monster (by re-using the original soundtrack but adding more instruments), but this time standing in front of the giant C on a light blue background with fancy light effects. The chorus of monsters included Grover, Herry Monster, Elmo, Zoe, Telly, and Rosita.

As Cookie always says: "C is for cookie, that's good enough for me! Yum yum yum yum yum!"

On the Best of Elmo instead of the CTW semi-circle audio you can hear the My Sesame Street Home Video logo but it uses the calypso instrumental theme. and the munching sounds are different, but this time Cookie says nothing. The audio file is at 0:56 of this link. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPJHa-… . Can you add that in the Best of Elmo part of the double feature book featuring the Best of Elmo and Big Bird Gets Lost?
