It's great, though I miss the interview with DInah, which is marvelous. I think SHE'S great - she really takes everything he says and does - however extreme it gets for TV - in stride, and treats him with respect. It's a great TV moment - she takes something that could be totally incongruous and presents it honestly, and seems interested.

The whole performance (minus some video glitches) - is here:

The performance has a lotta good energy, but I never liked the song much.

I agree that the interview was terrific.

Yeah I agree, but sometimes the performance is all you need.

I was thinking I'd like to hear Dinah Shore and Rosemary Clooney collaborate. Two great singers in their own right.
Don't fake the funk on a nasty dunk!
