Muppets Most Wanted had its world premiere at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles on March 11, 2014 and was released theatrically in North America on March 21, 2014. The film grossed $80.4 million worldwide.
Henson once stated that the term "Muppet" had been created as a blend of the words "marionette" and "puppet", but also claimed that it was actually a word he had coined. The Muppets debuted on the television program Sam and Friends, which aired locally on WRC-TV in Washington, D.C. from 1955 to 1961. After appearing on skits in several late night talk shows and advertising commercials during the 1960s, Henson's Muppets began appearing on Sesame Street when that show debuted in 1969. The Muppets then became the stars of multiple television series and films, including; The Muppet Show (1976–1981), The Muppet Movie (1979), The Great Muppet Caper (1981), The Muppets Take Manhattan (1984), and The Jim Henson Hour (1989). After Henson's death in 1990, The Muppets continued their presence in television and cinema with Muppets Tonight (1996–98), a series continuation of The Muppet Show, and three films, The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992), Muppet Treasure Island (1996), Muppets from Space (1999); the former two were co-produced with Disney, who sought to acquire the characters since the late 1980s. In 2004, Disney purchased the rights to the Muppets (except for the Sesame Street characters, which were sold separately to Sesame Workshop, as well as Fraggle Rock and other characters retained by The Jim Henson Company), and later formed The Muppets Studio; a division created specifically for managing The Muppets franchise.
Miss Piggy sang this song after winning the Miss Bogen County Beauty Pageant (and after noticing Kermit the Frog in the crowd and falling in love with him) in The Muppet Movie, fantasizing life with Kermit.
Originally, this song was meant to be sung by Johnny Mathis during the fantasy montage, but after he recorded it, Jim Henson decided it would be funnier if Miss Piggy sang it herself.
Never Before, Never Again! from The Muppet Movie, 1979.
Sung by Miss Piggy upon seeing Kermit for the first time.
I DO NOT OWN THIS VIDEO. NO COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT IS INTENDED.
Never before have two souls joined so freely, and so fast.
For me this is the first time, and the last.
Is this an angel's wish for men?
Never before and never again.
And where to find the words to sing its worth,
This love was bound for heaven, not for earth.
This love was meant to light the stars,
But when we touched, we made it ours.
And would they take it back?
Oh, no, they wouldn't dare!
Why should they take it back,
When there's enough to share with all the world,
And fill the heavens above
With left-over love?
Never before, a love that just keeps growing on and on,
To fill each lover's heart and light...
