Stephen Colbert wrapped up "The Colbert
Report" Thursday night with this classic 1939 World War II song made
immortal by Dame Vera Lynn (probably by coincidence, it was also the
music to the ending of Stanley Kubrik's 1964 dark, dark, dark classic
"Dr. Strangelove")
Colbert's version features . . .
everybody.
If you need a cheat sheet for most of
the guest singers, it's
here. It's probably the first and last time that Sir Patrick Stewart has stood within arm's length of Dr. Henry "The Butcher of Cambodia" Kissinger.
We wish the lad good luck with his new
show. He seems to have prospects.
(Also, 39 years ago tomorrow, Harry
Chapin hit the top of the Billboard Hot 100 with "Cat's in the
Cradle." We gave it the
p3 treatment in 2012.)
