Cake 'I Will Survive' Jenny McCarthy Show live studio performance

[@jaerivus]

First off to uploader: Thank you very much for this bit of nostalgia. I know the audience applause seemed pretty warm at the end, but during the performance I just kept thinking that almost no one seemed to be feeling it like I was. Shame if so, because this is one of the greatest covers I've ever known. Also, I hope that trumpet player felt comfortable just dancing for the majority of the song.

@jaerivus it sounds like you were there? I was too! I show up at 0:07 in the upper right -- bleached, cropped hair and a cardigan. I remember really enjoying the performance, but being self-conscious -- we had to sit there. Apart from nodding our heads it was hard to know what to do with our bodies lol

Apart from my date and her friend, the only other audience member I remember is the guy who shows up at 1:49 in the upper right with the big hair who was really into it!

When was this recorded?

This show seems to have only been on the air in the Spring of 1997.This is a great performance, and it's great filming too. Really shows the entire band. So many other TV performances bury the bass and drums in the background. Didn't see this at the time but would have loved to.
