fracas

As would be expected of fracas (the blog), fracas (the person) wrote about David Letterman’s Stupid Human Trick with Stephanie Birkitt.[1]  I provided fraccy readers with a photo of the little miss and then asked the burning question no one else was asking…

… did Paul Shaffer create any music for that?

It seems there’s a new development in that these Late Night Noogies were, on at least one occasion… carried out in view of the show set’s security cameras and now Dave is worried about the leak of his own little sex tape. [2]

Poor, poor Dave.

Naturally, since he’s oft been such an affable kind of guy, everyone is likely to feel sorry for him instead of the guy we all really should be feeling sorry for.

Yes. I am serious. There is someone in this situation, far more hard-done-by than Dave.

That guy is none other than Paul Shaffer.

Why? Well, though I was joking when I queried in the first post, about whether or not Paul would have to “write music to go with that”, given the existence of a videotape… we all know now he’s going to have to come up with a soundtrack. He works for Dave. To provide music for Dave’s show. I think this qualifies as a show… don’t you?

I mean, seriously… the only choice Dave has now is to come out ahead of the game like he did with the admission of the affairs, claim ownership of the sex tape (a la Gene Simmons [3]), and market the tape himself. He’s going to need a whole lot of extra income to pay off his wife in this… and unlike Robert Halderman, the bobblehead [4] who (allegedly) planned to extort money to pay off his wife, Dave can at least earn his extra money legitimately.

Which means he’ll need a soundtrack.

Which means poor Paul is going to have to watch that beast of a security sex tape over and over and over… to make sure the music does it justice.

Poor, poor Paul.

So I thought we should all help Paul out, make it easier on him… and brainstorm ten tracks he can choose from and thus save him a little bit of hair grief in putting this thing together for Dave.

My first suggestions?

• I’m Too Sexy”  -  Right Said Fred
• “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger”  -  Daft Punk
• “My Baby Gives It Away”  -  Pete Townshend
• “You Ain’t Seen Nothin’ Yet”  -  Bachman-Turner Overdrive
• “I touch myself”  -  The Divinyls
• “Gimmie All Your Lovin”  –  ZZ Top
• “Lets get it on”  –  Marvin Gaye

Leave your suggestions in the comments. (If you need to cheat a bit to take part, try this site… shhh… I won’t tell.)

The deadline is Monday, October 26. At that point, we’ll vote ‘em up and send the top ten suggestions off to Paul!
