Quando si dice il talento! Non bastava il grande successo nei panni del Dr. House. Adesso Hugh Laurie, attore britannico diventato famoso nei panni del medico scorbutico della serie tv USA, impazza con una band formata da divi del piccolo schermo che suona cover di pezzi blues e soul e in men che non si dica ha sbancato il botteghino. La "Band from Tv" (a giudicare dal nome, la fantasia devono averla lasciata tutte nelle sceneggiature...) ha inciso diversi successi del passato. Il gruppo vede House alle tastiere, James Denton (l'idraulico di "Desperate Housewives") alla chitarra, Greg Grunberg alla batteria (il poliziotto di "Heroes") e come voci Bob Guiney (che non so chi sia!) e Bonnie Sommerville (di "Friends e "The OC").

L'allegra compagnia e' diventata un fenomeno di internet (questo post e' uno di questi) con 100 mila+ visitatori al sito MySpace e loro video e immagini su YouTube.

L'ultima loro fatica e' stata l'incisione della colonna sonora per Dr. House, che comprende anche:

"You can't always get what you want" dei Rolling Stones.

I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she was gonna meet her connection
As at her feet was a footloose man

You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
You just might find
You'll get what you need

I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Singing we're gonna vent our frustrations
And if we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse

You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Well, you just might find
You'll get what you need

I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with Mister Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, was cherry red
I sung my song to Mister Jimmy
And he said one word to me, and that was dead

You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
No no, you can't always get what you want
Oh, you can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
You just might find
You'll get what you need

I saw her today at the reception
In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception
Well I could tell by her bloodstained hands
Oh, yes I could

You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
Yeah, you just might find
You'll get what you need
Oh sugar, you'll get what you
need, yeah yeah yeah
You'll get what you need, yeah yeah yeah
You'll get what you need, yeah yeah yeah
