I was actually on school trip to Sesame Place the day he died. I came home and my sister told me that he died. I was 11 when he died but it felt like my childhood was over right then.
I was 10..... Too old for Sesame Street (I still watched it though)..... And the muppet show was off the air.....we were at that funny age. Not quite a teenager but too old for kiddy stuff, An awkward age and when he died it felt like so much of my childhood went with it. I'm glad his legacy and vision lives on. My children love the muppet movies old and new and I also love that the muppet show is back. It's nice to have a show I can watch with my children. Ps. I have such fond memories of sesame place.
@@novinophobic5995 I was 10 years older, and long past the age where we felt his presence (Muppets aren't cool as teenagers), and it was much later that I realized how big of a loss he was.
I had just turned 13 on May 14th, and he died on May 16th. I never knew how my heart would break... as young of a teenager as I could be. I remember the pain like it was yesterday and I still cry over it. He was an extraordinary talent and phenomenal human being.
This song was played immediately after Frank Oz's touching and emotional tribute to Jim. I became choked up when this song started playing because it caused me to remember the first time my mother showed me the beginning of "The Muppet Movie and "Kermit" sang this song. Jim was a wonderful man indeed!
Paul Williams said in an interview that Jim was having trouble getting the vocal track just right, so Paul told him to go get Kermit and have him sing it. And that take worked perfectly.
I want “Smile” by Nat King Cole, but personally, I think Jim Henson is the only person who deserves for this song to be played at his funeral. He’s earned it.
I was only 1.5 when he passed away. My grandmother is a huge Jim Henson fan so I grew up watching reruns of the Muppet Show and of course Sesame Street. He taught me many lessons and he is responsible for lots of my childhood memories. I respect him a lot.
We had the Jim Henson collection on view at my local museum, but got cut short due to the virus, so I didn't get a chance to go. One of my major regrets. But a lot of my FB friends went, & posted some great pics!
The subtle sensitivity he gave to his puppets is something that can't be duplicated. When most celebrities die it doesn't mean much to me. But Jim Henson gave so much of himself, and through his talents he contributed to all of our childhoods. Thank you Jim for everything.
Jim was instrumental in my childhood. So instrumental. When he died, it was like a part of my childhood went with him. Thank you, Jim. I think you found it.
I'd go so far as to say Jim Henson has probably had a greater impact on the world and so many generations of people than just about anybody else in Film and Television, and pop culture in general
Miss that voice. Spent so much time watching the muppets growing up and always remember watching them with my grandfather who passed away in 1992. I remember him comfting me by playing this song for me after we learned of Jim's death.
I was 5 years old when he died, and at the time I was in the habit of watching a VHS of the Muppet Family Christmas TV special nonstop, probably driving my parents crazy. I still remember them sitting me down to explain what it meant that he died. I was absolutely shook - not only was that my first taste of my own mortality, I thought all the Muppets were going to die too.
The world needs Jim Henson right now. Jim Henson, Fred Rogers, Ernie "Mr Dressup" Coombs, all of those guys who taught us to be human with gentleness, humour and humility. Since they're gone now, it falls to each of us to remember and share their lessons
So sad and moving. I still have the newspaper from the day he died. It was twice as sad because Sammy Davis Jr. died the same day. They both had huge pics on the front page.❤
I always sing along with Jim/Kermit when it plays its a shame I was barely a year old when he died but I grew up watching his old clips and movies here I am 25 years old today I still enjoy the muppets and watching clips of his funeral has brought tears to my eyes Rest in Peace Jim you are missed by so many
i was born way after he died, and i feel sad that i haven't saw jim playing kermits voice on tv, its just sad cos i wish i had a perfect childhood with him.
The Muppet Show was pretty rad too. How dare anyone forget it. Swedish Chef lives on as an inaccurate stereotype to this day. And the Swedes are totally cool with it. Bork Bork Bork
We just need to be grateful for this human being who was with us too short….but just long enough to create a wave so positive ….so big as to impact all of mankind.
Rest in Peace. More impactful than anyone from that era. Here I am, crying about this in 2o23. He made more of an impact to my life than almost anyone. Can't say he is number one but he is in my top three.
I'm seeing the panning shot of those in attendance. I don't understand how the entire group isn't bawling their eyes out. Everyone grieves in their own way, I guess.
He was raised in a Christian Scientist household, but was not one himself as an adult. He was a workaholic. He was at least partially reluctant to go to the doctor because he just wanted to keep working. And he didn't think it was something serious.
Cosmic song by a man who truly brought so much happiness to the world. He is missed. I grew up with the muppets and this song always brings tears to my eyes.
So very very sad. And why? Because Jim brought with Kermit and the other Muppets so much joy and laughter in this world. And yet he managed to bring us emotional and touching moments. Like this song. A song that is so deep that it reaches almost evereyone. Not just the ones who grew up with it (or the Muppet Show for that matter). I was born 1993 in germany. The Muppet Show wasn't in TV anymore. I didn't grew up with the show. But I discovered it in my late teens. And it is just awesome.
Sne kalyegh 🤲 Jim Hendon. I grew up watching The Muppet Show as a child living on my Wetsuwet'en territory , i got lost , forgetting my abuse, ridiculs from my paternal side of my family. Seasme Street, Fragile Rock too. I wanted to hugs from Kermit, telling me, it's going to be ok. My people had gone through alot--) residential schools, foster carw...how the Canadian government tried to eliminate the Indian out of our people. I stopped the abuse with my son. Even if i now live in an urban setting. I know my roots, will i ever go back, not likely. I love the west coast. My favourite is when Kermit would do the reporting on Sesame Street and when he sings on the Muppets. ❤🌱 So thank you Jim Henson and crew.
Jim Henson was a genius. He touched our hearts with the Muppets. I was already pretty much grown when they started but I watched them whenever I could. My mom and dad and I always watched the Muppet Show and enjoyed it very much. To see my parents laughing was so special. RIP Mommy and Daddy. I miss you so much! 😭🙏🙏💔🌹🥀🌈 Jim Henson was taken from us way to soon. RIP sir! You made us laugh. Thanks for that! 🙏🙏😢
So many people pass away and are missed by all their friends and family's. But Jim Henson will never die. He remains in all children's hearts through his creation of the Muppets.
I did not grow up on Muppets and barley watched sesame Street as a kid and the most I've had with the Muppets is watching the 2011 movie over and over and I still cried when big bird sang at the service
This song is one of the the best country song out there and and he was very nice to everybody and this song is not bad at all and he was very cool and everybody love him
I'm a small time soloist/singer/performer and I sometimes sing this song in Kermit's voice. I was born years after Mr Henson passed, but have always fallen in love with everything he did. I cried when Dark Crystal:AOR came out only because I wish he was around to see his world come to life like it has now. I have to keep from crying whenever I sing this song because all I can think about is the immense talent, heart, and love this man had. Fly high Jim, rest easy. People are still making your dreams come true.
I wish they hadn’t added the orchestration to the song. It has more emotional impact with only Jim’s voice and the banjo. Losing Henson was like losing Lennon.
Thank you Jim for keeping my childhood still alive tho I'm 22 but I'm passing your work to my babies Dominic and Angelyna we all miss you dearly sincerely The World 😭😭😭😭
It meant a lot to me as a child and now I have a lil one of my own who adores the muppets too. His legacy means so much more to me now and I hope the love he had lives forever so my daughter can share that feeling too with her child someday.
I had random songs playing on Amazon music, and Sarah McLaughlin's version of this came on. I didn't even remember how or where I knew it from, but began literally sobbing. I remember watching this service when I was 5. I still miss Jim. The epic rap battle with him and Stan Lee was even enough to move me to tears.
Jim henson started all small puppet show around 1955, and that was all he intended, but he did so much more thanks to the lovers, the dreamers, and you
If reports are true, Jim didn't initially consider puppetry a respected art form, just a means of getting on television. He even asked the crew at WRC-TV (NBC's Washington, D.C. affiliate station) to work behind-the-scenes, but he was told to stick with his puppets; they may just make him rich. And, well, we all know how that turned out.
I’ve always said this is the one song that I want played at my funeral. It’s always meant so much to me since I was a little girl. It always puts me in tears.
If all he had done was given Kermit a voice that would have been enough. But, he gave so much more.

Oh, you're so right.
No one can quite get the softness of Jim's Kermit voice. RIP
Steve Whitmire was the closest, I still can't get used to Matt Vogel though
@@paweldembowski Me neither. All I think when Matt voices him is what Animal called Constantine: BAD FROG!

Played at our son’s funeral by his brother.
I am so sorry for your loss. It’s a beautiful and heartbreaking song all at the same time. 🌈
He has found his rainbow connection
Dude, was born waay after he died. Im crying because he was a great man who deserved such a legacy.
I had just turned 13 on May 14th, and he died on May 16th. I never knew how my heart would break... as young of a teenager as I could be. I remember the pain like it was yesterday and I still cry over it. He was an extraordinary talent and phenomenal human being.
😊 so true
I was born right before Disney bought the franchise
@@allijo514 Don't worry. Every heart, no matter the age, can break every now and then. It's all part of being human.
I was born in 1974. The perfect age for The Muppet Show and films. Thank God I was there. So great to come of age back then.❤
One of the most significant gentlemen in the world singing one of the most significant songs ever written . Mr. Henson is sorely missed.
Of all the celebrities that have died over the year, Jim Henson was the one which upset me the most.
@@ktwashere5637 me to
Ikr he is missed 😢
Im a big hairy tattooed 40yr old man and i start crying every time this song starts to play....
Me too, babe. I'm 40. It kills me. I've loved this song my whole life. 😭👍
I know it's been 4 years but I hope you're doing good big guy I'm 26 and this song brings me to tears too its okay to cry
This song was played immediately after Frank Oz's touching and emotional tribute to Jim. I became choked up when this song started playing because it caused me to remember the first time my mother showed me the beginning of "The Muppet Movie and "Kermit" sang this song. Jim was a wonderful man indeed!
He was a SAINT, that man
Yup
He passed to
Jim Henson and Charles m Schulz touched the hearts of this world. They will never be forgotten.
I would add Fred Rogers to that mix as well. All 3 of them helped to define my childhood!
One person can change the world and make it a better place to live.
Writing this reply on Schulz's birthday.
Both incredibly talented and kind men.
I miss them both greatly
❤❤❤
And Walt Disney, too.
My Dad used to play this on the piano, I miss you Dad😢
Paul Williams said in an interview that Jim was having trouble getting the vocal track just right, so Paul told him to go get Kermit and have him sing it. And that take worked perfectly.
Two voice impressions you can never replace mel blanc and jim henson
Mel blanc was incredible. My favorite voice of his had to be Barney Rubble. Especially Barney's laugh... Heh heh heh
@@w6467 I thought he was just Dino
I can't stop crying. I miss you Jim. You are my hero
I miss him too, but I never met him. If he lived by the time I was born, I would meet him.
Me too I never met him until I saw the muppets and the creator and my mom said he's dead a long time ago I cried
I miss him too
I agree I wouldn't be who I am today if I didn't have Jim Henson
I felt choked up when I first saw this video. Jim Henson was literally a huge part of many people's childhood. Even mine.
the rainbow connection a timeless muppet peace of music.we all miss you jim Henson Kermit still lives on.
I still can't believe the Academy didn't give this song an Oscar

I was 18 when he died; Sesame Street and The Muppet Show was a part of my childhood; this song makes me cry every time I hear it. 🥺😭😭😭
I was 10, going on 11 when Jim passed. Sesame Street, The Muppet Show and Fraggle Rock were all a huge part of my childhood.
Jim was instrumental in my childhood. So instrumental. When he died, it was like a part of my childhood went with him.
Thank you, Jim. I think you found it.
I'd go so far as to say Jim Henson has probably had a greater impact on the world and so many generations of people than just about anybody else in Film and Television, and pop culture in general
Now it’s 2024 and I’m about to turn 45 and I still have a soft spot for Jim Henson. Posthumously named a Disney Legend in 2011.
How is it possible to not cry here?
It's not. Who's not crying here. Jim Henson was my childhood idol
if I could go back in time, I would get a front row seat at this historic memorial
Personally, I would’ve told Jim to go see a doctor but this is a close second
@@dga155 if I could stop this memorial from happening, I would drag him to a doctor
Jim Henson died thirty years ago today. RIP (1936-1990)
Watching this over and over again makes me miss Jim Henson (even as the voice of Kermit) more.
We all do

Henson would still be alive today if he went to the doctor right away. He eventually did go, but it was too late. He had symptoms but refused to go
slapshot68 that was kinda his thing (not go to the doctor) because he was a hippie God I miss him 😭😭❤️❤️
@@SkyRaw04 he was a Christian scientist, which is a religion that doesn't believe in the practise of medicine unless it's absolutely necessary.
He thought it was just a cold until he started having serious symptoms. Either way it doesn't matter. What matters is what he left behind
He was raised in a Christian Scientist household, but was not one himself as an adult. He was a workaholic. He was at least partially reluctant to go to the doctor because he just wanted to keep working. And he didn't think it was something serious.
My grandfather, may God rest his soul, was the same. Men of that generation were like that, too reluctant to get help when they needed it.
In Loving memory of Jim Henson (1936-1990) Rest In Peace 🙁😨😥😰😭😨😰😢😭 0:00
I was 13 years old when Jim Henson passed away. The Muppet Show and Sesame Street had been apart of my earliest memories through then.

Jim Hendon. I grew up watching The Muppet Show as a child living on my Wetsuwet'en territory , i got lost , forgetting my abuse, ridiculs from my paternal side of my family.
Seasme Street, Fragile Rock too.
I wanted to hugs from Kermit, telling me, it's going to be ok.
My people had gone through alot--) residential schools, foster carw...how the Canadian government tried to eliminate the Indian out of our people.
I stopped the abuse with my son. Even if i now live in an urban setting. I know my roots, will i ever go back, not likely.
I love the west coast.
My favourite is when Kermit would do the reporting on Sesame Street and when he sings on the Muppets. ❤🌱
So thank you Jim Henson and crew.
Now Jim and Carroll are reunited in heaven
Knowing that Jim sang this is more heart braking :(
Thank you so much Mr. Henson for making the world a little brighter!

Please come back Jim, me and my kids who unlike me never got to experience your genius, miss you...
This song is weird it makes me feel like crying but then it gives me sort of a buzzed, inspired feeling.
He helped a lot of us to read and count.
This song is one of the the best country song out there and and he was very nice to everybody and this song is not bad at all and he was very cool and everybody love him

I wish they hadn’t added the orchestration to the song. It has more emotional impact with only Jim’s voice and the banjo. Losing Henson was like losing Lennon.
I'm glad I wasn't alive when he died because if I was Id probably die on the inside
I was 13 and I was heartbroken. I cried like a baby. He died 2 days after my 13th birthday.
He died 3 days before my parents got married glad i wasn’t around when he died

The Biggest Heart in the world. Jim was one of a kind never going to be another like him.

This almost made me cry this is so sad
such a great man he is missed
I wish I hadn't watched this. Funerals are sad enough, but that song made this even sadder.
I’ve always said this is the one song that I want played at my funeral. It’s always meant so much to me since I was a little girl. It always puts me in tears.
Holly Dillon its very beautiful isnt it
Miss you Jim thanks for making my childhood so amazing. Hopefully I can do the same for someone someday.
Its 2019, and I'm still crying...still sad he left us way too soon. Rest in peace, Jim...and Happy Heavenly 83rd Birthday! ❤
What a loss he was my hero
It's like he is still there and you can recall the scene in Muppet Movie where he sings this solo.
