OK Go: they had you at treadmill, and now they're back with their own version of the Muppets theme song. The video, featuring a lot of Muppets!, was released today—check it out below.
The song is amongst those included on The Green Album (out today!), which features classic Muppets tunes performed by Weezer, Andrew Bird, My Morning Jacket, The Fray, and others. Over in Seattle they're accusing the Muppets of hitching on to the hipster thing as part of their grand comeback plans. But with an upcoming Jason Segal-scriptedMuppets movie, Kermit doesn't really need the skinny-jean set (however, he would look great wearing a pair).
