Robyn And David Byrne Perform “Dancing On My Own” At The Saturday Night Live Homecoming Concert
This made me so happy when it came across my feed just now, so I thought I’d share. At the Saturday Night Live concert special Friday night, Robyn performed “Dancing On My Own”—considered one of the greatest pop songs of all time—with David Byrne, and they of course brought the house down. Almost as fun as seeing Robyn and David together is seeing so many of the celebrities in the audience singing along (Paul Rudd, Meryl Streep, Jon Hamm, Tom Hanks, Pedro Pascal, Sarah Jessica Parker, dozens of SNL cast members, and tons more):
