#1:Old school
Redhead Kingpin & The F.B.I. - All About Red
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPoZxdjxcjE#t=2m

Why? He plays Red Reddington on the Blacklist and he's also down with the FBI.



#2: Dilla
Jaylib - The Red
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRzRSCRZweY#t=55s

Why? Dilla.

Incubus "A Certain Shade of Green" (Acoustic Version)
http://youtu.be/d-yLZrNyj-g

Why:
How often do you get a green guest? Plus, the lounge-ish version I think is better suited for the band than the loud rock version.

James Spader
Diana Ross & Lionel Richie's "Dreaming Of You"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLdjaFHXGB8
REASON: One of Spader's first roles was in ENDLESS LOVE. I believe I suggested this before, so I'll try again.


Kermit The Frog
Sesame Street's "Newsflash" intro
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xye5rDThe0M
REASON: As a kid, there were many things I looked forward to when watching SESAME STREET, and one of them was the cool keyboard/melody that was in Kermit's "Newsflash" intro/outro music.

Kermit The Frog:
"It's Not Easy Being Green" - Paul Williams, Kermit The Frog.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpiIWMWWVco

(might as well try for the lay-up, Its his song, and it is St. Patrick's Day.)

(also note the thematic songs mentioning colors thing I got going on here.)

Ice Cube - AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyQpWS3sNkw

Why? Every motherfucker with a color (green) is most wanted.

(The Muppet new movie is called Muppets: Most Wanted.)

James Spader - song from TUFF TURF sung by James Spader
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIHxiCSM15E

TUFF TURF was the first time Robert Downey Jr and James Spader shared the screen together and this would be pretty goddamn hilarious.

Kermit - "Keep Fishin'" by Weezer

James Spader
Red (Reddington) Black (List) and Green (Frog) - Roy Ayers


Kermit The Frog
none

They played "A Certain Shade of Green" (lounge version) for the brief amount of time that they panned over to where Kermit was sitting. This is my first time suggesting a song that got placed so I'm hype!!!

I need info from someone in the know.

(I'm rooting for you)

Original version of Not Easy Being green:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4ZxxHbJGbY#t=3s

a certain shade of green?"

here's the part of the song:

http://youtu.be/oPZqRktTSNI?t=1m10s

Jesus, I'm an idiot. I missed the couch interview section when viewing it on my computer.

My Tivo got the whole thing, and you are right. I am wrong.

mg: Foster The People

Jay Z "Girls Girls Girls"
http://youtu.be/LUg7G3CPos0

Her TV show is 'Girls.'

I couldn't make up mind between which Fatback Band I was going to suggest, so I have 2 to choose from:

Fatback Band-Girls On My Mind
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMkMSXl_pzk

Why? So many Girls.

-or-

THE GIRL IS FINE (SO FINE) - FATBACK
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CFUx7H5n0s

Why? The girl is fine. <-Be careful how you say it - it could go a couple of ways.

Lena Dunham
Blueprint's "Big Girls Need Love Too"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-lepf-ark8
REASON: Dunham is "big", she's on GIRLS, and I think she can laugh at it and being called "boo", as the lyrics imply.



Hugh Dancy
Judas Priest's "Eat Me Alive"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFCZDNwomRA
REASON: Double entendre here. The song is originally a love/ravaging song. In this case, it refers to the show HANNIBAL and Dancy's interaction with Hannibal Lecter. In turn, with all the criminals Agent Graham (Dancy) has to interact with, the mental anguish is thus "eating him alive".

Lena Dunham
"Ooh Child" - The Five Stairsteps
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrotsEzgEpg&feature=kp

(due to this SNL sketch: http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/ooh-child/2755297)


Hugh Dancy:
"Raise Your Glass" - Pink
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=570tFRoRR0A

('Don't be fancy, just get dancy" - name connection)

The Cure "Why Can't I Be You?"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MI0a9hTh5AU&feature=kp

Why? From Wikipedia: Hugh Dancy as Special Agent Will Graham, a gifted criminal profiler and hunter of serial killers. He visualizes himself committing the murders he investigates to understand the killers' behaviors; throughout the series, Graham's involvement with the investigations takes a toll on his psyche.

Lena Dunham - "I Wanna Get Better" by Bleachers
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A81Z6hGjGJQ

Bleachers is Jack Antonoff of fun.'s sideproject. Jack is currently dating Lena Dunham

Hugh Dancy - "Can't Get It Out of my Head" by ELO
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrffDM3hHk8

It was used heavy in the commercials for this season of HANNIBAL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iaq4wUAr4jk

In the 10 minutes before taping I thought of this:

Geto Boys - Mind of a Lunatic

Hugh Dancy
Judas Priest's "Eat Me Alive"
Suggested by: johnbook

Comedian: Natasha Leggero

Harry Belafonte "Jump In the Line (Shake Senora)"
http://youtu.be/Bk3sLHZzZRI

Change the "shake" lyric to "rake," because he is currently starring in the Fox show, 'Rake.'

Juice Newton - Queen Of Hearts
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0DK-0fIKCw

Why? Because i guess she's the queen on a game? (I don't watch the show.) But it'd be a good pairing with the Gambler - 80's pop-country wise.

Plus that breakdown at 2:35!

Kenny Rogers - The Gambler
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jj4nJ1YEAp4

Why? He plays a degenerate gambler on Rake!

Greg Kinnear
Rihanna's "Cockiness (Love It)"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbJRVufEX00
REASON: Bangla Desh sampled Greg Kinnear's cover of "Summertime" for this song.


Emilia Clarke
CeCe Winans' "Throne Room"
http://youtu.be/NVpw08eppvs?t=3m6s
REASON: She's in GAME OF THRONES. I realize this is a spiritual/religious song but is used in a non-insulting way so I hope this can make it through. Use the lines:
"Welcome to the Throne Room
Welcome to the place where it all got started
Bow down (bow down)"


It makes a perfect contradiction: begin with a Rihanna song, then second guest gets a CeCe Winans song.

Emilia Clarke

Nas - The World is Yours

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_srvHOu75vM

Reason: Emilia Clarke is on Game of Thrones and her character believes the throne belongs to her. Change the lyrics, instead of saying "The World is Yours" say "The Throne is Yours".


Whose Throne is this
The Throne is yours, the Throne is yours
It's mine, it's mine, it's mine; whose Throne is this
It's yours
It's mine, it's mine, it's mine; whose Throne is this
The Throne is yours, the Throne is yours
It's mine, it's mine, it's mine; whose Throne is this

Chelsea Clinton

REASON: She is credited as being a producer of a new documentary called OF MANY, so one can say "of many many many".

Chelsea Morning - Sergio Mendes Brasil 66 version
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlZpefbfxzk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXe95iTtci0&feature=kp <-Joni Version

Hillary said that upon hearing the 1969 Judy Collins recording of the Joni Mitchell song, "Chelsea Morning", Bill remarked, "If we ever have a daughter, her name should be Chelsea."
But it might be hard to pull off.

I was going to go some cheeky route making fun of the Limbaugh (slime) dog incident (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtUlEfuM-xU0 but let's keep it above board.

mg: Ty Dolla $ign
sit in: Ann Wilson

my picks:

Kevin Bacon
Roger Daltrey's "Quicksilver Lightning"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ywoKIB3IxQ
REASON: In honor of the great film QUICKSILVER, where Bacon played a bike messenger. I saw this movie at the theater and still think it's great for what it is. No one ever refers to this song or any of Daltrey's solo work, plus it was co-written by


Jeff Musial
He'll get his usual song, right? I'll leave this as blank.


EXTRA:
For Ann Wilson, while I know she is just sitting in, you must somehow have her sing her first single from 45 years ago, a song called "Standin' Watchin' You", by Ann Wilson & The Daybreaks:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyytEBiFwlY

This is very true to what Washington State represented circa 1969, very poppy, very close to what Anne Murray had done with "Snowbird".
http://www.discogs.com/viewimages?release=5242469

If you guys can end with "Even It Up", especially now that you have a horn section, that would be awesome.

Bacon is Good for Me Remix - The Internets
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRGz9xSP_SA#t=35s

Why? “Bacon is good for me” (Also known as King Curtis) is a video remix meme that originates from a clip from Wifeswap USA, Season 5, Episode 18, starring the Brown and Holland families, originally airing on ABC on March 27th, 2009.
In the clip a boy known as Curtis is unhappy that his replacement-mum-for-the-week wants to get rid of his bacon. During the clip he uses quotes like ‘Bacon is good for me!’ and ‘She thinks shes the queen and were the sorry people’.
The original clip was uploaded on 25th August 2009 by Flylo123. In addition to reaching millions in their homes via ABC television broadcast, the video clip has over 1.7 million views. (http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/bacon-is-good-for-me)

I'd like to pitch that if the producers ever successfully get an animal to shit on Jimmy (like they've been trying to for 5 years) that you play: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFLm5JnVn0Y#t=1m

"Never" by Moving Pictures

From the famous scene in FOOTLOOSE where he dances away his pain. lol

Kevin Bacon:
"Follow You, Follow Me" - Genesis

I'll mark it thusly unless it turns out a writer wrote the video intro without consulting our list.

"Never" by Moving Pictures

.

this is my 3rd 11th hour change in like 25 episodes


we were set to do "Never" and mere seconds before the countdown the writer stopped the set and asked for us to do "something else" --like magic grows on friggin trees in my backyard.


so in 8 secs i yelled at Ann, sing "i can bring home the bacon...fry it up in a pan" and do a blues guys! "1..2...3. da da da da "i can bring home the bacon...."


---i was annoyed and impressed on how fast we did that


but we had all intentions to do Never.
