Kate Mara

J Dilla "Reckless Driving"
https://youtu.be/-U_GkfCZIGM

Tracy Morgan

#1: John Sebastian - Welcome Back
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=GGlY3ubGzUY

Why? Tray is an ex-con who is released from prison for good behavior after serving fifteen years. He returns to his old Brooklyn neighborhood to find that it has become gentrified. His ex-girlfriend, Shay, is now married to a white man named Josh and is raising his twin children Amira and Shazad. Tray decides to become a better man and a father with the help of the owner of a halfway house, Mullins, and his cousin Bobby. (Ice-T AND The Geto Boys are side eyeing me.)

Kate Mara
Group Home - Serious rap shit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrLSCdUNyJY#t=2m50s

Why? You get caught up, like Ted Kennedy, in Chappaquidick (Maybe just repeat that line.)

Tracy Morgan
Bus Boys' "The Boys Are Back In Town"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQpL7uAPAFs
REASON: He's looking at the "old town" and wonders where it has gone but eternally, he is forever back.



Kate Mara
too bad Prince is still not allowed, otherwise I'd suggest "17 Days" but...

Boogiemonsters' "Recognized Thresholds Of Negative Stress"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARc_mdE_r6A
REASON: It's from THE UNDERWATER ALBUM

John Krasinski

Mobb Deep "Quiet Storm"
https://youtu.be/M0gYFrWF6UE

Why: He stars in and directed 'A Quiet Place.'

Abigail Spencer

James Blake "Timeless"
https://youtu.be/Cw0mgIM4Ie8

Why: She's in 'Timeless.'

John Krasinski

Silent Treatment
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKveOqw5ukY


Why?The plot follows a family of four who must live life in silence while hiding from creatures that hunt by sound.

Abigail Spencer
Huey Lewis And The News - Back In Time
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLQWGoysbgM

Why? If she's there for Timeless.

John Krasinski
Ying Yang Twinz' "Wait (The Whisper Song)"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_oIzc0XUqM
REASON: He's in A QUIET PLACE, I figure since there is a clean version, use that.

ALTERNATE CHOICE
10cc's "I'm Not In Love"
https://youtu.be/OtBHfxU2wmc?t=1m51s
REASON: "Be quiet, big boys don't cry... big boys don't cry..."





Abigail Spencer
Goldie's "Timeless"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Usqwy2-E4SE
REASON: She's in TIMELESS. You could either use the intro, which is just a synth line and the word "timeless" repeated over and over or go to the first part of the song where the drum-n-bass begins:
https://youtu.be/Usqwy2-E4SE?t=2m39s

It would be great to hear Kirk sing this.

Silent Treatment - The Roots
Suggested by:handle

Question: I couldn't make out the alternative lyrics.

Abigail Spencer
Huey Lewis And The News - Back In Time
Suggested by:handle

Note: Pretty sure this was the Kevin Nealon "Gonna go back in time" elevator version. (Video strangely not on the net ANYWHERE - even with a Hulu subscription.Some ask Dr. Evil to put these up somewhere now that Seeso is dead.)

mg: A$ap Rocky

Mike Meyers

John Mayer "Assassin"
https://youtu.be/mP4cpVzw_Lc

Why: He's in 'Terminal,' which is about two hitmen/assassins who get involved in a job...and discover that a girl who's involved in the case may be deeper in the whole operation than they had thought. Which is basically what the hook to this song is about.

Abbi Jacobson

Nena "99 Red Ballons"
https://youtu.be/14IRDDnEPR4

Why: She next stars in the Netflix film, '6 Balloons.' This song is about quite a few more balloons, but she'll probably enjoy it.

Mike Myers
Simon In The Land Of Chalk Drawings (theme song)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzxC8-HvACE

Why? he based a recurring SNL sketch on this. (Just add a sick beat - sick I tell you.)

Abbi Jacobson
Archie Bell & The Drells - My Balloon's Going Up
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWbQ8TEn1qs

Why? She's in something about balloons - and this is a song Archive wrote about the first vacuum erection device in the 1960s.

Mike Myers
Circle's "Terminal"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWTH_tf4ZxA
REASON: He's in TERMINAL and while I could pick a number of older songs. I chose something from last year from the band Circle, as their new album is called TERMINAL. Opening riff is easy.



Abbi Jacobson
The 5th Dimension's "Up Up And Away"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5akEgsZSfhg
REASON: In her beautiful, her beautiful ballooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon...

Norman Reedus

Pixies "Dead"
https://youtu.be/BA0aBnFx2-A

Why: Walking Dead reference.

Wendy Williams

Why: Duh.

Norman Reedus
Jade - Don't Walk Away
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZ9HG0nGe-g

Why? He's on the Walking Dead, and this song is about walking.

Wendy Williams
Can we retire this for her?

The Association - Windy

2PAC - Why U Turn On Me?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxxjHXb5cjk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKtatmo_ktw

Norman Reedus
I still think my suggestion for him last time was great but I'll choose another song.

Oingo Boingo's "Dead Man's Party"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McqlDCGXaUw
REASON: Glad to say I saw them open up for U2 in 1983 but did I see U2? No, I walked out, not realizing U2 would become bigger a few years later. Anyway, this is from the same album that featured "Weird Science" and this was a minor hit in the spring of 1986 and would lead to the Danny Elfman leaving the group and becoming a much greater songwriter for films and TV shows. I generally don't like the more pop-oriented Oingo Boingo but it's probably as familiar as "Weird Science". Anyway, it's due to Reedus being in THE WALKING DEAD



Wendy Williams
Wendy O. Williams' "Ain't None Of Your Business"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LdIsaCw-lA
REASON: Known as a member of The Plasmatics, Wendy Williams is now known for getting in everyone's business for her TV show but when it comes to her personal life, it is no one's business. April 6th is also the 20th anniversary of her death so perhaps it would be fitting, in honor of her legacy.

I have to post this, it's one of the most bizarre SCTV segments ever - featuring W.O.W and Th Plasmatics.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xRnKnYz3kG0

SNL could never do stuff like this.

Tiffany Haddish

Dr. Dre feat Eminem "Forgot About Dre"
https://youtu.be/QFcv5Ma8u8k

Why: For the iconic opening line, "y'all know me, still the same OG" as she is on the show to promote 'The Last OG.'

Jay Chandrasekhar & Kevin Hefferman

MF DOOM "Hoe Cakes"
https://youtu.be/GZAXE3-srfM

Why: In the breaks, instead of saying "supa" you can change it to "super" and then "troopers," as they are on the show to promote 'Super Troopers 2.'

Tiffany Haddish
DJ Khaled - Top Off ft. JAY Z, Future, Beyoncé
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LB421c19ak0#t=2m43s

Why? Shots fired at Tiffany.

Why not: Same old bullshit rhythm with the "I'm choking on hair" autotune bullshit hooks. (People owe Dice Raw a fucking an apology.) It's fucking awful. Jesus, it is bad.

Jay Chandrasekhar & Kevin Hefferman
Super Trouper - Abba
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHPrbfng_Nw#t=1m

Why? They're there for their movie Super Troopers 2.

(And this when the 40th Super Troopers prequel is made:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOgFpQGTJ5o#t=1m)

Tiffany Haddish
Shawn's "O.G."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPsYW5LphfA
REASON: She's in THE LAST O.G., as one of the lyrics in the chorus is that she is a "100 percent O.G.". Plus, it's a song from a woman's perspective so I thought it would be fitting.




Jay Chandrasekhar & Kevin Hefferman
Yes' "Starship Trooper: a) Life Seeker"
https://youtu.be/DKftiJS30Cs?t=53s
REASON: They're in SUPER TROOPERS 2. Second verse says the song title.
