Billie Eilish and Sesame Street’s Count perform ‘Happier Than Ever’ with a numerical twist
Pop singer Billie Eilish dropped by Sesame Street to perform a numerically-themed lyrical reworking of her melancholy song “Happier Than Ever,” accompanied by resident number aficionado The Count. Substituting lyrics about a failed relationship with new ones concerned with the joy of counting with a friend, it’s a gentler, more wholesome and soothing version of Eilish’s 2021 single.
“When I’m counting with you, I’m happier than ever,” Eilish and The Count croon together. “Numbers sound so much better / Now let’s count me and you.”
The duo never get above the number two, but happily that seems to be enough for them.
