The Sesame Street theme song was composed by Joe Raposo, a writer and composer of many of television shows' songs.

In his book on the history of Sesame Street, Michael Davis called the theme "jaunty" and "deceptively simple".[2] Raposo wrote the lyrics to the song with Jon Stone and Bruce Hart. Stone considered the song "a musical masterpiece and a lyrical embarrassment".[2] Raposo enlisted jazz harmonicistJean "Toots" Thielemans, as well as a mixed choir of children, to record the opening and closing themes.[3]
