SNL Tina Fey and Amy Poehler (Sarah Palin / Hillary Clinton) ---> The Beatles "The Fool On The Hill"
VHM just for its general all-around pleasantness!

BOS for Tina Fey / Amy Poehler:  I had forgotten how amazing Tina Fey was in that role...   :)

Dubya ---> Homer Simpson ---> The Who "Won't Get Fooled Again"

I wonder if the W to Won't Get Fooled Again was a subtle dig at Obama: "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss." Probably not.

Dubya, Homer Simpson --> "Won't Get Fooled LN"
Turn it up to 11 and it'll be OK. I know I am.

Great segue (a bit obvious but who cares)

I would not have been upset if she'd played the 45 edit of the 'oo tune.  ;)

"Chuckles the Clown" -- uber-BOS3. Genius.

thanks for the ID -- I don't know as much of his catalog as I probably should. VHMFRA.

BOS for Rufus doing a pretty credible Beatles impression. Good song.

listening at home on Comcast, it sounded like "a little dance" was cut from the Chuckles bit.

Shazam says it's Johnny Winter, "Be Careful With a Fool."

VHM just for its raw  guitar tone!

She's definitely pulling out a few things we would not normally hear (see also: The Drive).  Props to her for the Ricky Nelson, Stone Roses, and Johnny Winter, just for starters.

Had I thought of it I'd have asked for David Bromberg's great I Will Not Be Your Fool.  Maybe next year.
Let's get right to it.

BOS.  I was pretty sure it was Johnny, but I wasn't really paying enough attention early in the track.

VHM, JJ.
