"Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" is an English nursery rhyme adapted from the poem "The Star," by Jane Taylor. When later set to music, the song's melody was based on Mozart's "Ah! vous dirai-je, Maman," which was also the basis for "The Alphabet Song" and "Baa Baa Black Sheep."
Nina and Star have sang this several times on The Good Night Show, often while looking up at constellations through their Sprout-o-scope, albeit with altered lyrics and a new verse sung by the latter. Previously, the song was sung by Leo and Star in A Very Special Good Night. Music for this version was composed by Tim Burns.
