They would not have made sense since they refer to Production Company: Worldwide Pants something that is not heard. I believe the edit is Distributor: Columbia Broadcasting System undetectable, so I’ll tell you that it occurs just before Letterman says “Just in time for the holidays.” Although this comment is not particularly funny in the context of this album, the audience is amused by it because the telecast took place in February.

The video features Distributor: National Broadcasting Company one house that has a giant mechanical Santa which can be voiced from inside the house. Onlookers can be seen from inside via closed-circuit television. Conan actually did more funny stuff than is included here, but I edited it down because without the visual the bit loses some impact and can’t be sustained for LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O’BRIEN used is “Sleigh Ride” by Andy Williams as long. I initially put a lot of reverb and echo on the as their intro music to this segment. I believe the recording they used is from parts where Conan is pretending to be Santa, and Williams’ album, MERRY CHRISTMAS, originally released in 1965 on the the effect was very good technically. However, it Columbia label. didn’t add anything comedically or musically so I didn’t use it. The best edits are the ones that go unnoticed, and this one would have been more the focus that the recording itself. The Conan clip is really just a link and I didn’t want it to take too much focus.

This edit is very subtle The audio used here is actual audio from the film, but I took it from track 18 of and is one of my favorites.

19 RIVER Joni Mitchell 3:51 Sources Who it is Where it is from Additional Notes 1: Joni Mitchell From the album, BLUE, Joni Mitchell, 1971, Label: DCC The intro to this song makes for a great transition from the crazy “Jingle Bells Medley” to a more mellow mood. It also transitions nicely into the next song not just musically, but lyrically (“I wish I had a river I could skate away on…”). I didn’t realize until after I put these two songs together that the next song also conjures up skating images.
