SNL - Dana Carvey

This week was a special event for Saturday Night Live. The guest host was Dana Carvey. The show saw the return of "Church Chat" and special cameos by Mike Meyers and John Lovitz.

Oh yeah and a little something called THIS:

Also, this one isn't so much funny as I just like this song and wish to buy the record album.

And I thought this was pretty funny too.

It was nice to see him back and it was one of the better episodes of the past few years. You can watch the full show here.

Classic Roots Choice #17

There have been a number of walk-on songs which were gray areas as to whether they deserved a blog post. For instance, Mike Meyers was on Friday night's show and the Roots played the "Halloween" theme (Mike Meyers/Halloween, yeah).

But the guest after Mike Meyers made it a "no brainer". Matt Lucas, of Little Britain fame was on to promote "Alice in Wonderland". For him, The Roots played "The Peanut Song" (unofficial title).

If you haven't seen heard it on the youtubes, it goes a little something like this:

Yes, it's just that stupid. That is one hot backing track.

It's possible they "cheated" and just did a youtube search for possible songs. But if not, I am extremely impressed. I'm a fan of "Little Britain" and, by extension, Matt Lucas, and I was only barely aware of this clip so if they genuinely knew about it, my hat is off to them... again.
