Oh, hah, it was "The Disco Strangler" by the Eagles. Well I can understand why they couldn't get the license for that cheap. Calls for a homebrew re-edit in my spare time ;)
Crap, this must have been one of those skits where they had to replace the background music because of the licensing. The original music was so much funnier. After he says, "the bird is dead," there's this ass-tearing guitar chord. The whole track was great, wish I knew what it was. Oh well.
The omission of that piece of music was one of the most painful compromises of an otherwise essential DVD collection, severely crippling this brief bit of genius.
Why, oh why did I ever discard my well-worn VHS copies of the original telecasts?
great quality
