The Muppets' iconic 'Mah Nà Mah Nà' song originated in a steamy softcore Italian film, here's how Jim Henson found it

I recall the song from the movie soundtrack being played on AM radio a bunch when I was a kid in the 60s. Wikipedia sez “Sesame Street producer Joan Ganz Cooney heard the track on the radio and decided it would be a perfect addition to the show.”

It made it as high as 55 on the Billboard Hot 100.

I guess it just wouldn’t do to actually see the women in a sauna sweating. Wouldn’t want to ruin their makeup for the panning shot.

Sole reason people can accept ‘manometer’ as a humidity meter. Wait, maybe that’s not it…density meter? Nope, dry or wet air pressure. Wasn’t there a longer word?
