Late night tv works! Introducting Lily Allen to my world...

I love my DVR. People weren't kidding when they said it would change your life. That may be a slight exaggeration but I really can watch whatever I want when I want. You all know I love live music so it's pretty rare that I end up catching Saturday Night Live while it's actually happening live. That's where the DVR comes in... I recorded this week's which had Drew Barrymore as the host. First of all, she was hilarious especially the skit when she was high on a frappuccino and had the most inappropriate job interview of all time.

Musical guest on Saturday night was the English and adorable Lily Allen. She seemed like such a nice girl singin' up there but upon further investigation, I find her album, Alright, Still, full of attitude. Her soft voice feeds you the thorny lyrics with a spoon full of sugar. She performed her rasta-flava'd single, "Smile," which has become my favorite song of the day:

When you first left me
I was wanting more
But you were fucking that girl next door
What'cha do that for?

When you first left me
I didnt know what to say
I've never been on my own that way
Just sat by myself all day

I was so lost back then
But with a little help from my friends
I found the light in the tunnel at the end

Now you're calling me up on the phone
So you can have a little whine and a moan
And it's only because you are feeling alone

At first when I see you cry,
yeah it makes me smile, yeah it makes me smile
At worst I feel bad for a while,
but then I just smile I go ahead and smile

Whenever you see me
You say that you want me back
And I tell you it don't mean jack
No it don't mean jack

I couldn't stop laughing
No I just couldn't help myself
See you messed up my mental health
I was quite unwell

I was so lost back then
But with a little help from my friends
I found the light in the tunnel at the end

Now you're calling me up on the phone
So you can have a little whine and a moan
And it's only because you're feeling alone

At first when I see you cry,
yeah it makes me smile, yeah it makes me smile
At worst I feel bad for a while,
but then I just smile I go ahead and smile

lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala lalala

At first when I see you cry,
yeah it makes me smile, yeah it makes me smile
At worst I feel bad for a while,
but then I just smile I go ahead and smile

lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala
