OK I have a real long shot for you folks here. Not expecting any answers, but I know if theres anywhere I could it would be here.

On the episode of House that just aired Tuesday at 9, rerun of last years christmas episode, there were a few songs that caught my interest.

1. Sun King by the Beatles sampled into a christmassy song. Played in the middle of the episode.

2. A jazz version of Santa Claus is Coming to Town. Mostly piano with a very low key bassist and drums. Briefly plays with the motif from Thelonious Monk's Blue Monk. Plays very close to the episode's end. Would've made a great addition to some of the christmas jazz we were talking about in december.


If anyone knows either of these songs I am attempting to describe I will be both extremely grateful and impressed!

I have recently got hooked on it by my wife, it's a cool show and I love how much of a dick he is but the show is becoming very formulaic. Hugh Laurie was recently on "Inside the Actor's Studio" and he is a very funny man...didn't realize he was a brit.

Been into the shop for awhile but it kind has run out of things to do. Hugh Laurie on SNL doing a Bob Dylan impersonation had me rolling

I think this is one of the best shows on TV. it is starting to get a little predictable though

Anybody remember Hugh Laurie on the 'Black Adder' show. Rowen Atkinson(!) was the straight man to Laurie's goofy twit persona.
