For the 52nd season of Sesame Street, Billie Eilish will debut a new duet version of her song Happier Than Ever with Sesame Street’s The Count. Billie Eilish is enlisting the assistance of a certain caped friend to perform a duet on one of her songs!
The seven-time Grammy winner, 19, will appear on the season premiere of Sesame Street on Thursday. And she will be performing a special duet version of her second studio album’s hit song Happier Than Ever.
In a song snippet, Eilish can be seen sitting on Sesame Street’s famous stoop alongside The Count, singing altered lyrics from her song: “When I’m counting with you, I’m happier than ever…”

Eilish and The Count then serenade each other about how numbers sound so much better when they’re counting together.
The number 2 was the focus of the segment, with Billie counting out two of Burt’s sweaters while Burt shivered in his undershirt and apples, with Elmo handing one of the fruits to a friend.
Eilish shared a clip of the segment on her social media platforms, including Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram Stories, ahead of the episode’s premiere.
Sesame Street, the longest-running children’s show on television, debuted 52 years ago this week, on Nov. 10, 1969. The show’s 52nd season will premiere on Cartoonito on HBO Max on Thursday.
