David Bryne teamed up with Robyn for a surprise rendition of ‘Dancing On My Own’ at Saturday Night Live‘s SNL 50: The Homecoming concert. Check out the footage below.
In one of the concert’s surprise moments, Robyn, who first performed on the show in 2011, began to sing her 2010 hit ‘Dancing On My Own’ alone, before Byrne appeared on stage for the second verse. The duo wore matching dark khaki suits and wireless mics as they danced along.
Afterwards, they segued to Talking Heads’ ‘This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody)’, where they treated the audience to some slightly more choreographed dance moves.
SNL has been celebrating its 50th anniversary, launching its 50th season in late September. Among the content planned and already rolled out for its 50th anniversary are the feature film Saturday Night, a Questlove-helmed documentary focusing on the programming’s music and more.
In a three-star review of Saturday Night, Jordan Bassett wrote for NME: “The film lacks narrative drive and genuine comedy, then. As it barrels towards its inevitable conclusion, though, a funny thing happens. Out of the chaos emerges a rather inspiring ode to making it up as you go along, living in the moment, saying ‘yes’ and hoping for the best.
“You may wind up with a “half-assed rat-fuck donkey show”, as Dafoe fabulously seethes at one point, or you may create history. It’s this that – just about – makes Saturday Night worth watching. As any improv comedian could tell you: stick with it and you’ll stumble upon gold.”
