When commemorating the holidays, why not do it with Cee Lo Green and The Muppets Christmas song "All I Need Is Love?" Cee Lo, who gets lost along the way to Atlanta, stumbles upon the Muppets house, which is where the singing begins. With the Muppets theme song in the background, Cee Lo sings about his only request for Christmas this year -- love.

The video offers [adorable and humorous entertainment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbour-x-shaun-the-sheep), which is very typical of most Muppet songs. Craig Robinson who plays Darryl in the Office, makes a cameo appearance as Santa Claus and Cee Lo even gets his own puppet version of himself. Pepe the shrimp prawn even raps in between the song. However, it wouldn't be a Muppets video without the two grumpy old men, who make an appearance near the end.

[Directed by Mark Klasfeld](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creatacard-greetings), the results of the Muppets Christmas song is an adorable and catchy tune that all members of the family can enjoy.
