I loved it too!! They seem to be having so much fun it is impossible not to enjoy it. Better than Starbucks to start the day off right.

Too bad Norbert didn't sing that last high high note

High note? HE SINGS A HIGH NOTE?

I swear I'm not freaking out over this.. damn me and my obsession with men and high notes.

ome of the performance seemed just a little stilted to me, however i do fully accept that it was a)8:30 am (an ungodly time) and b)they probobly "cleaned-up" some of the lyrics to make it appropriate for the morning audience (remember: they cut the second base line when donna murphy did 100 easy ways on regis)

Agreed. On both accounts, even.

Jon did you catch Matt's remark about wondering what cashews had to do with the song after the "nuts" line?

It was funny, light and jazzy. It reminded me of "City of Angels".

my favorite part was Norbert's "You got the guts/you got the nuts." line. the "poker term". that was grand. and just the song "It Was A Ball, It Was A Blast" will probably end up being my favorite song.

There's no doubt that the camera isn't "lying" - Norbert has gained weight. But why be startled by it? There's simply more of him to love, and love him I will. =)

The newsletter I got from the DRS website had the song listed as "Dirty Rotten Number".. so.

My favorite part was Norbert's "we still deserve a hand" line. God, he belted the hell out of that line and for it being so early? *Thud*

Too bad Norbert didn't sing that last high high note

I was thinking it was too bad that Lithgow barely found a note. I never knew he wasn't a singer. Because of the role and the material, I'm sure I'll love him in the context of the show. But jeez. Singing isn't his strong point.
