ericmortensen: My DVR didn’t record SNL this weekend.  I assumed it was a repeat.  And I somehow didn’t find this clip until just now?  I’m slipping.  This song deserves to be slipped into DJ mixes.  It’s just too awesome. My DVR didn’t record SNL either.  I’m so thankful for Hulu posting this Digital Short!!!
