Celebrities Teaching Children to Count

Feist on Sesame Street

Feist's recent appearance on Sesame Street made its way to YouTube and is now officially moving quickly toward becoming viral, on its way to being huge.

Launching off of the huge viral success of the original 1234 video, directed by Partrick Dauchters with over 9 million views on Youtube, (and the soundtrack to an Apple iPod commecial), the Canadian singer has re-mixed her own song to teach counting to 4 on Sesame Street. She also nails it in one take!

I don't want to spoil it, so just check out the video...
