I want to be Dan Rydell* off of Sports Night, basically. (This bit sets up this bit, for instance.) Last night, re-saw the episode Eli's Coming. When Dan was little, he thought that in the song, Eli's Coming, Eli was something bad, and even though Dan knows what the song is really about now, his childish understanding of the song has never left him. It's how I think of the song too, since Sports Night was my first encounter with it.
Here it is being 'sung' by Three Dog Night. They are having a lot of fun.
* The reason I want to be Dan is not that his eyebrows are weirdly far apart. I wonder if it is because his eyebrows naturally are very close together, if there are even two of them.
