So last night I was halfheartedly watching Charlie Rose, & flipped over to see what music was on Letterman &/or Leno. There was this okay band on Letterman. I listened for a while & realised I’d heard the song before: “Your Body is a Wonderland.” In fact, I think it was a rerun of a show I’d seen before, but I’m not sure. (Now understand, I came in in the middle of the song. I didn’t know the band’s name.)
So, enough of that; I flip over to Leno. Some kid’s just starting. No band visible, just him onstage with an acoustic guitar. I notice he sings in the same odd voice as the lead singer on Letterman. Then I notice it looks kinda like him. Flip back & forth. It’s the same guy! Listen a little closer to the lyrics. Wait, I recognize this from the one time in the past I’ve heard this song. Can it really be the same guy singing the same song at the same time on two networks? Wait for the refrain: “Your Body is a Wonderland.” Yep!
Wake me up I gotta be dreamin’.
(Charlie Rose had some of the cast of Adaptation, by the way. Tired of all this, I went to bed.)
