The Late, Late Show Theme Song

[gmianosi]

"Tomorrow's just a future yesterdaay." <3

[tkchrist]

This sounds suspiciously like Mr. Blue Sky by ELO.

This isn't a hate-on. I love Ferguson. But it would be WAY cool if he'd cop to the... um... homage.

[skunkwerksllc]

Love it... don't live by it... but LOVE IT!!!

you sick drunk fK... hahaha!!

[Nicklepa23]

wow the first version sucked. It sounds like a karaoke party. But still a kick ass show.

[unknowndiva2004]

I love this show and he's so freaking funny and has a dimented sense of humor like me ;)

[ramruth]

Am I the only one who misses this version of the theme tune? I like the new one too, it's just that... there's was something about this one that was so... awesome!

[zzXDarKXzz]

But Craig Ferguson is Hilarious

[zzXDarKXzz]

They were supposedly gonna replace him in september.

[swirlkat]

who could replace Craig? no one would watch. His Robot Skeleton Army surely would leave.

[TobeDoss]

i love the complete version

[BOSOX9004]

wait, there's a longer version than this?!

Where can I find this?!?! lol

[DearTTraveler]

i love this song ^___^ is this a real song? like can you buy or does anyone have it o.o

[ShadowOniShinobi]

i love this theme song, I think Craig has a wonderful voice

[Banger612]

i havent watched this show in awhile , but ima drink rootbeer till its time cause i norm fall asleep its soo damn late at night ............... but AwEsOmE sOnG!!

[bearguySF]

"Tomorrow's just your future yesterday."

So is today = yesterday's future.

Damn I'm smart.

[uberzeldamaster]

I love how he's always saying that his show is just an elaborate hoax just to make him feel better. xD

[fourstarusergirl]

Gah! Doesn't he sing the theme song! Just MAJOR LOVE for that man.

[Maiseyyy]

love it

[S13driftAZ]

super awesome

[dennisfp1]

I'm surprised no one has commented that the music for his theme song sounds very much like ELO's "Mr. Blue Sky." (Search for it on Youtube, you'll see). Not the lyrics exactly, but the chords and the sound. I wonder if he credits Jeff Lynne -- at least as an inspiration?

[chipmunksfan5]

awsome

[icyclaw123]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS! I love this theme song! :D

[M16zable]

that song technically explains my nightlife

[Photog422]

Craigs going HD at the end of this month.

[lisam805]

awesome

[zakattack982]

Finally, maybe next he can get an actual band and audience. jk

[churoasasin]

I'm happy and sad, for one thing Craig's in HD!

For another, he can't make anymore jokes about not being in HD...

[zakattack982]

He's still could(and probably will) make jokes about how he's the last one to go HD.

[Photog422]

well, technically he wouldn't be the last. Carson Daly hasn't gone HD yet. But who watches him?

[cantonrunner]

but, in his own words, he can say he is in HD--huge douche. this show is hilarious

[surfergirlb]

I don't know any background info on the Late Late Show but I do absolutely love the show and was wondering, did he sing this song? Or if he didn't sing it, is it like a part of a real song (name of that song?)?? Thanks for all help!

[zzXDarKXzz]

"it's hard to stay up its been a long long day and you've got the sandman at your door but hang on leave the tv on and lets do it anyway its ok you can always sleep through work tomorrow OK hey hey tomorrow's just your future yesterday" those are the full lyrics to the theme.(i can sing that all too lol)

[panman36]

I wish he would sing this on the show some time. Just doesn't seem like his voice

[StrongHeartSoldier]

what does it say?

"_______"

"It's been a long long day"

"And you go the sandman at your door"

what does he say in my blank?

[caseycamby]

This one website said

"It's hard to stay up"

but idk for sure

[chrisdogan]

it's hard to stay up

[steve81989]

It's hard to stay up, it's been a long long day....

[DylanHamPain]

craig is awsome

[TheBrothersCrim]

craig is the best . he coyld kick the crap out of those fancy late night shows

[ob2kanob]

I was thinking Blur...Was Craig once in a band??

[funnylozr]

yupyup, but he's a drummer. =]

[homgJulie]

I love Craig, I was him everrry night. :D

[superbedst]

Best damn show ever!!

[dakidvader]

the harmony in the begining is great, this is a very good theme song prob best of all time for late shows. i watched his show last night and hes a very bright man with natural instincts for the camera and his delivery is genius very off the top/improv style.

[pretty08princess]

Finnaly!!!!!!! a late night show with a theme song that the HOST sings! craig has a Smexy voice ;D

[SpawnofLebowski]

what's the name of the song?

[tbizone2002]

ur right tommyrock....it DOES sound kinda like Madness! Catchy song...i'll def. find it and share it with ya

[tommyrock69]

Reminds me of Madness.  Brilliant!

The best show on late night tv by the way.

[greendaypunklover]

This song makes me so happy!! I love the Late Late Show, and I love Craig ^_^

[Dreamer305]

we want hip hop remix! Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooh!!

[Moldrid1026]

Supercilious Giraffe: Ooooooooooooooooohhhhh!

[bluenowait]

Dali: Ooooooooooooooooohhhhh!

[kingslice75]

Wow I didn't start watching the show until after this theme ended.

[XTheXVampireXLitcheX]

that show is awesome. everyday i see it. and craig is cool if you've met him.

[SolitaryDarkness]

Does anyone know how I can download the theme?

Seriously, I love it so much xD

[theone7722]

you can always sleep through work tommorow! haha

[BVanSittert56]

this is actually a really good vid

shows his personality n whatnot

showin him kickin back, goofing off, ha

[MisterDEDEDE]

this song is epic

[CK4Lego]

I Knoooooooow! XD

[HoratioFriedman88]

Whatever happened to the soundboard with various animal noises and whipping sounds? I haven't seen that one since the writers' strike.

[BenjaminWirtz]

It's still around, he uses it occasionally,especially the whip.

[pretty08princess]

He used the whip last night xD

[mansonman1]

i love craig, he has the best show ever.

i record every one i can

[HannahJDA]

I wake up to watch this show (I actually set my alarm)then I go back to bed....that is how much I love Craig Ferguson...

[kecikwien]

"It's hard to stay up

It's been a long, long day

And you got the sandman at your door

But hang on, leave the TV on

And let's do it anyway

It's OK, you can always sleep through work tomorrow, OK?

Hey, hey, tomorrow's just your future yesterday."

[TheLateBar]

This song is the best theme song. I hate that they took the "you can always sleep through work tomorrow" line out. I love that line!

[craigfergusonrocks88]

BEST THEME SONG IN THE WORLD!!!! Did you know that i just found out that Craig Ferguson actually sings that! As he would say-- "I KKNNOOWW!!" lol

[tornheartworld]

WORD!!!

[ElOnlyMan]

@craigfergusonrocks88 duh he sings that he can do anything oh and the whole intier song is out to

[captainpetroleo]

Very cool intro, if we could have the link that'd be awesome, or at least the name of the song and if we could get it through itunes :)

[MauroBellissimo]

yeah i agree^^

[MauroBellissimo]

I want this song! ^^ can you send me the file please??

[TheFlash4188]

i need this song, soo good! can somebody send me this song, in a good quality if possible?? TY ^^

[HugskissesXoS]

i love the theme song, and his smile :)

[shandi684]

bahaha. my new fave songg.

well, almost. lol.

BUT, craig IS my fave comedian/talk show host!

[Capuchi8]

Does anyone know where to download this song at?

[rodriguez1025]

Catchiest theme song on tv today. Good work, Craig!

[thepianolover4ever]

they took out the line "You can always sleep through work tomorrow, OK?" and :hey hey"

[bradytube]

Does Craig sing this song?

if not, is there one where he sings it?, thats what i heard

[thepianolover4ever]

i thnk he does sing this song. he wrote too.

[pineapplepie52]

yes he is singing

[metal6addict]

the best talk show host by far.

i still think the greatest episode would have been if he had george carlin, the best comedian ever, on.

[SC1089]

I hate how they now edit "you can always sleep through work tomorrow OK!" from the song now.

I also don't like the cold opening that they've begun doing. I loved hearing this song right after Dave ended. Since this song is so happy and excilerating, it just made you want to stay up and watch the show. The cold opening just bores me.

[moye41]

great show in fact i am watching it right now

[strawberrychild01]

I love the song and the show, I wish they would send it to England. I would pay.

[chrisdogan]

this song is niiiiiiiice..... plus craig ferguson is funny as hell. however, i do miss craig kilborn... but i'm glad that craig ferguson took over, he does a really good job

[cooldude2368]

got to watch it every night oh and he is funny good song i want to know if i could get the old long version of this song

[JOHNNYisMRsexy]

i love craig & this show! always makes me laugh!i could never hear the words in the song 4 some reason!but i looked them up & it hilarious! The Late Late Show Theme Song Written by Craig Ferguson It's hard to stay up It's been a long, Long Day And you got the sandman at the door But hang on, leave the TV on And let's do it anyway It's ok You can always sleep through work tomorrow, OK? Hey hey Tomorrow's just your future yesterday

[arturrro]

this is the best intro song ever. at first i couldn't believe craig sings it. damn that guy is awesome.

[crzyman22]

craig ferguson is the funniest naught monkey ever(nauhty monkey screech)

[JOHNNYisMRsexy]

I AGREE!!!!!!!!

he's HILLARIOUS!

his show's the only thing i stayup for...well that & i dont sleep early

=]

[shmanya]

i love his singing voice!!! if he ever released an album i would so buy it.

[JOHNNYisMRsexy]

i think he has...he's in a band right now & they were touring a couple of days ago

[shmanya]

[JOHNNYisMRsexy]

& ive been looking for the name of his current band but i cant find it anywere!

mabey he isnt in one currently...but a couple of days/weeks ago on the show someone asked him in am email how they should dress @ one of his conncerts (or was is shows?) & yea...mabey they ment his stand up or something

=]

[BornEmo]

*use

[BornEmo]

I like this introduction better than the one they us.

[sabresoilers88]

I have this as my ringtone,since i have a sony ericsson i recorded the song.

[LEEnsVIDz]

Oooh, yay...SeXXXy Craig! Nice clips. :)

I want this as my ringtone.

[james283126]

could someone make this their ringtone, cause same here i want it as mine, and he should put out an album with this on it, cause he used to have a band

[artemislover23]

Couldn't you just record this on your phone, then set it as you ring?

[james283126]

no my phone is gay,lol

[sabresoilers88]

Cool 2 all that watchThe Late Late Show, I watch Craig Ferguson every night and his monologues are Hilarious!!!

[NaptOwnsEmO]

its on full time there is only 5 weeks that he is not on out of the whole year

[Nubsthegreat]

Bah! Why did they end up taking the song off after like season two or something? I liked it...

[angrywhitewomen]

its too bad this isnt a full song its lovely

[sabresoilers88]

Does any one else watch Craig Ferguson every night he's on?

[angrywhitewomen]

yes i do, almost every night!  and i started watching from when he started too! umm i used to watch the drew carey show when i was little and mr wick was my fav character, haha hes so perfect at playing creepy!

[liverpoolishgirl]

Of course, every night. We're talking on another comment board about the number of people who TIVO it or get it off youtube the next day and don't watch it when it is on. A pity since that doesn't reflect in the ratings for him.

[Richmast3r99]

i love his show. I love the theme song and hes funnier than all the other talk show host except david letterman. i love him in drew carey thats mainly why i watch him if he wasnt on drew carey i probably wouldnt watch him. if it was lewis or oswald doing the show i'll probably not watch it. Craig is the right man for the job

[Nintendo2k]

Best late-night host ever. Love the song.

[ageleunam]

He does the best monologues.

[KennethKallenbach]

[funnywhiteroots]

This is not how you get onto television.

[Raccoon7777777]

I just love it when Craig says "I know!" and that serious look appears on his face.

[haaleyy]

Haha, that's one of my favorite parts.

It's also funny how he openly flirts with the female guests.

[Cryofire558]

Me too!

[fromthesidelines]

When Craig returned- after his writers settled their differences over a new contract- in January, the full version of his theme was restored in a new title sequence {but the line about sleeping through work tomorrow is still missing}...

[sunshine1793]

I LOVE the Craig Ferguson song it is the best!!!!!

[artemislover23]

YAYA! Cregi!

[soulcornflake]

This is my favorite theme song of all time for a TV show. It reminds me of the Garry Shandling Show theme (remember that one? It went something like 'This is the theme to Garry's show, this is what we play when we start to roll the credits...').

[Liusila]

Oh my, the ending was the cutest! ^^

[shaggingdavey]

That was great, you did a great job! I'm an arrogant fuck face but I love it!

[tubeeorrnottubee]

Just had to revisit this classic tune and tribute, {i'm so upset they cut most of the song out on his show!}, because one of my Favorites, where this IS, just kicked the bucket, so I'm very pleased to see thiss one ISN'T IT!!!;D

[pooptangpie]

[2b2a]

[dreamer20k]

[MortRaineyMrsRainey]

[tubeeorrnottubee]

Thank you SO much for that! I'm just so upset since they shortened the original themesong which CRAIG HIMSELF WROTE! HOW DARE, HUH?! Boyy.. but I really appreciate you for bringing it BACK full-stop, and full of wonderful CRAIG! He's simply the BEST!

[mrharvey86]

[phantomvideowatcher]

the late, late show theme song. he sang it specifically for the show.

[Saboor17]

Hey who knows where I can download this so i can put it on my lovely iPod

[mr956262]

Craig is actually singing this song, just pay attention to his talking voice, then when he sings

[roxayandscarlet]

The Bastards from Hell didn't record this! LOL He left that band waaaaaaay before he started this show! He recorded it specifically for LLS. ;)

[mary35comedy]

the theme song is awesome! craig's voice is awesome! craig himself is awesome! hence you are awesome for doing this!! :D wherever did you get the theme song?!! :| i want it!!! lol and btw, you shouldn't have really put "music by: craig ferguson" coz it was his band called Bastards From Hell... lol seriously! so you could've said "music by: bastards from hell, sang by craig ferguson" lol.. im just saying... hehe but thanks anyway!

[joshandwill]

why do they cut the theme song to just the last couple of lines now? :(

[MortRaineyMrsRainey]

because they suck!! it's sucha great song! and he can sing too! i've never really heard many poepl who can sing that good except for vanessa Paradis! if you watch Commando then watch it live it sounds so the same! unless it's lipsyncing and i've totally gone off topic!!!

[braro442]

Best Late Night Talk Show Theme Ever!

[aghkunaba]

Wow..I had no idea CRaig was the one singing ...it is a very cool song...and he sounds great. Craig is sooo so funny, I love his show....and he is very cute too.

It is just great we can watch all this clips from the show...thanks everybody for posting...

[mega711]

This is such a good theme song!!!

[jetsett193]

[Skittles22088]

[Hastings101]
