Jimmy Talks About Adam Sandler’s Ode to Chris Farley on SNL 

Joshua Lessore thiiis!

The way he keeps looking away makes me feel like he's not being genuine.

@Ongo Gablogian lmao fr

@@EM33700 Looking away could represent him trying to hold back the tears. He has been spending years doing a bit, now he is taking time to go serious, its going to be much harder than one would think

Absolutely agree a real guy who is genuinely funny but is held back by that desk, if he was doing something else I feel he could shine

???

Every person gets 2 deaths: the first is the day they leave this world, the second is the day someone mentions them for the last time.

"We all die twice. First, when we take our last breath. Second, when our name is spoken for the last time." If this is true, Chris Farley will live forever.

That's when it hit me right in the feels too...

“You’re a legend like you’d wanted; but I still wish you were here with me We’d be hopping on a plane to go shoot Grown ups 3!”

You know Farley definitely said that too

4:05 - 4:50 is the best line....really hits the feels

from the actual tribute not this video haha

For sure man

During all this quarantine business, I have printed out dozens of pictures of friends, family, musicians, inspirational figures and I have a picture of Chris Farley, Chris Rock, Adam Sandler, and David Spade and they are all smiling, but Chris Farely just has his head thrown back in laughter, open mouth, eyes closed, cracking up. You can tell he was the life of the party in that photo and likely the life of all parties.

I think it must've felt so empty when Farley died. He left such a huge void in their lives. It still breaks my heart for them 💔💔😭😭

They were best friends ya know

Of course he is, that's his boy right there!

“Grown ups threeeeeeeeeeee”

Thanks

i was wondering if the title was click bait

Thanks

Definitely click bait..

Thank you!

Same here I also watched some documentaries on Chris. It was nice spending time with Chris wasn't it?

Me too

I am literally watching this right in front of Chris Farley's grave. But yeah me too...Adam Sandler's song re-opened Farley nostalgia for me. And I live in Madison and have never visited Chris. Well...I am now...

I kind of wonder if maybe that was his intention. Chris has been gone for 20+ but that weekend Farley was trending and old SNL clips of him were all over. He refuses to let the world forget his friend, and even if you don't respect his acting you gotta respect that loyalty.

John Casses unreal

Jimmy's always been a really talented impressionist. That's what landed him the SNL job.

Can you tell me why he calls himself sandman ?

@muka ferguson yeah I get that lol. Did he say why sandman though ? Like what caused that nickname? Or his full name is Adam Sandler sandman ?

It's even sadder when you listen to Farleys song that did he awhile back before he died because you can see it was a desperate cry for help but people took it as a joke 😢

@@matthewramirez6483 Yeah

Adam couldn'tve been more on point with his tribute to Chris Farley if he tried. He nailed that on all counts, and showed nothing but heart with that one. I consider that to be one of Adam's finest performances in the entertainment world, and he deserves all the accolades he gets for it. It was exemplary.

whats song?

Same here buddy

@Brandon S well, I guess David spade, rob snyder, and rest of that bunch is just entertaining

@@chasingamurderer Most people have friends, but the guy above is right.

Hey, Adam is a very busy man. A work a holic. He does it to dare for his family, and buddies. Imagine writing material constantly, business deals are constant, scripts, finances, selling, dealing, networking, giving to Dan's, father, husband, omg he is doing great. That is why he looks so tired. No spare time for the guy

I think him giving parts to some of his less famous friends in movie after movie of his is a class act on his part. He doesn't have to do that and I bet gets push back for it, but he does it anyway.

@Brandon S Really? Cause everyone who has met him has nothing but great things to say about him, nor does the internet support your claim.

Me too, That was incredible!

It had a vibe that reminded me of "the day the music died "

Where'd it take you?

@Richard Hopkins Impossible.

@Richard Hopkins What word? Impossible?

Will only be one of anyone

How much stand-up have you seen Farley do?

The part about his father 💔 I hope it inspired even one person watching to decide to go to rehab.

@@melissasaint3283 Farley went to rehab 17 times but his demons and insecurities were too much for him so Im not sure at all that thats what we should take away from the song. Its not an anti-drug song,just one man singing about missing the hell out of his friend.

@@melissasaint3283 Of course Sandler wishes that with all his heart. But the song is a celebration of his life, not a commercial for rehab. Since the moral of that story might be that it did not save him, although in general,i agree with you. Sandler loved him with all his flaws,so did alotta people...If people read up on Farley,I think "Be careful what you wish for and Dont be afraid too seek help and intense therapy" is what they can take away here. Of course rehab is a good thing. In his case,it becomes both depressing and inspiring. 17 stints but also 3 years sober which few know about. All those insecurities and the fame and money came so fast but didnt make him any happier. I dont know exactly when heroine came into the picture but that was the death blow. You almost wish someone held him at gun point near the end and locked him in a room and let him detox....but some people are always gonna do what they do,even if it kills them. His issues were so rooted in him,rehab couldnt do it all,he neede a network and guidance too. If people hear the song and wanna look up old Farley material,that makes me happy.But im with you,we're on the same team.

@@christofferjenzen78 I didn't think he was on heroin, was he? I thought it was mostly liquor and coke at the end, and then a morphine speedball combined with the condition of his heart? Maybe I'm remembering wrong, its been so many years. I agree though... Ive read about how hard he struggled, how often he went to Mass, how much half of him wanted to be sober and lose weight so he could live. But it seems like the other half couldnt feel hope or see a future for himself beyond the dead-end in his idols' footsteps, and wanted to OD at 33. He had cripplingly low self esteem and I think maybe a mood disorder. But most people, thank God, are not in Chris Farley's shoes. And even if they are, treatments are better now. I hope someone listens to the line about his Dad's turn to cry and reaches out for help...

@@melissasaint3283 Im actually trying to find the book the chris farley show as we speak. There is alotta contradictions. Lorne michaels said "As soon as I heard it was heroine,i wouldnt have any of it. I had been through that with John (Belushi),I wasnt doing it again"...although to the uninformed,it can be confused with morphine they are both opiats. Now,Im uncertain but booze,Coke and way too much weight were the other three killers. Farley really lost his mind after BHN,he was so ashamed of it,he went off the deep end. Being a too sensitive slapstick comedian critisized by pretentious, proffessional movie critics is not gonna work,you need to know some will give you shit....but after every movie,his relapses went from bad to worse. A downside with rehab if your issues are deeper, along with in his case,catholic guilt,is the shame and feeling of letting everyone down when you come back strong,then relapse over and over. Then rehab becomes a burden. Feels like he had to apologize alot for just being who he was and feeling miserable. Atleast his troubles are over and he left us alotta stuff to laugh at.

Scott W totally agree with you....but don’t forget Phil Hartman.. he was also a gem

@@leeanadiaz8463 true true. A legend

@@leeanadiaz8463 Yeah Phil really was...and a Non-Drug user!

And out of all those people chris always stole the show. And hes the only one that could make all the others break character

Critics had the nerve to say they were the worst.

​@@brianwestmoreland3836critics are just shitting on stuff for the paycheck, they are soulless spineless parasites

Incredible time to be alive and to watch this crew on SNL with my dad as I did the Bill Murat, Chevy Chase, Dan A, Jim B, Gilda, etc… I was so lucky!

Brandon S Hey! I’ve noticed that you have been biased against Late Night due to some of its political biases, and I understand where you’re coming from, but please show some respect for Chris Farley. Being disrespectful towards someone who has passed away just makes you look like an asshole. Despite however you may feel about his comedy, or Late Night’s political beliefs, two things are undeniable: It’s disrespectful to act the way you have been towards someone who has passed away, and Chris Farley was an absolute legend, as well as, from what I have seen, and heard from several other actors/comedians, a phenomenal human being.

Piper Taves I’m tearing up thinkin about it. I can’t imagine what Adam went through writing this song.

Blueblaze5 dude, Chris was from a time that they didn’t even do many political skits so what’s this guys’ deal anyway? I’m willing to imagine, hardly anyone that has ever worked for SNL has political beliefs that would align with mine. Until this very moment, it never crossed my mind. I watch them for a laugh. Period. That’s it. I watch the shit out of Joe Rohan too and I disagree with him all the time. Laugh. Dudes cool.

@@MrMann-gt1eh if only there were more like you we'd all be laughing and we'd all be happy

Mr. Mann yeah Adam, David, Chris, everyone. I can only imagine they cried so much that by the time his funeral came around, they had no more tears from crying so much. My dad met Mr. Farley so I only have that connection to him. I wish he could fill our lives with even more joy

But he talks really fast when he gets to do it. have you noticed? I don't think he enjoys it that much.

Corina Prado are you kidding me! He naturally talks very fast, (my son does the same), he is just trying to get everything said that he needs to say, he is a fantastic story teller 😍

Corina Prado could also be because his parents are from Brooklyn. From what I’ve been told, people from NJ and NYC talk fast. I’m from Jersey and didn’t think Jimmy was talking fast at all

@@ryanking2145 spot on

Love how he grabed the center in the casts ending shot, didnt shed a tear but others were in the shot. Rewatch it.

Sadly my parents never got to see Tommy Boy as children 😕 they were already adults when it was released. Prayers for them❤️🙏

He brought More joy to himself taking the drugs as well!

How is your second name pronounced Cheryl? Is it like "fuckd "?

Hi

Justin Ferriman its like thats what he should do

He's also very good at impressions. He ought to tone down the laughing at everything the guests say and make the show a wee bit more serious and it would be better TV I think.

Hahahahahah bro wtf. Everyday???

@@nithinr818 what's wrong with that?

@Brandon S true, but I don't focus on politics. But I see where you are coming from.

So true

Leave it to Adam Sandler

Eddie Murphy: Hold my beer.

Alreem That story is so fucked up, and it should be talked about more. Phil was really on his way to becoming an icon in comedy.

Good point! I agree with you. Phil Hartman kept that show afloat for a lot of years!

I always wonder this myself. Its like he wasnt as much loved by his co stars. Cant imagine that tho. I remember Leno actually crying when he told the passing of Hartman on the tonight show.

Probably because Phil's story is not only tragic it's fucking horrific and people don't even want to remember how it ended.

Likely because the prick who caused his murder (Andy Dick) would try to involve himself or otherwise try to steal focus.

Damn you're very fortunate to get to visit his site, hope it's been taken care of and looked after, his headstone I'm meaning, and not old, moss infected and such

@@kyletobin1246 He's in a mausoleum in a very nice cemetery thats very well taken care of.

Jordan Posvar agreed. Dude, people base entire personas on him. He’s genius. He’s just a class clown.

and now Kyle Mooney and Beck Bennett.

@Brandon S why are you such a jerk?

@Brandon S He was always like that, he is the biggest SNL fan there is btw. You're projecting out of lack of knowledge.

@BVE Sometimes it's important to inform haters, that their opinion is pretty much worthless. We are really glad you shared you spit now get lost to your lousy life and begone. Got it?

This.

Yeah but there is something special, seeing it being performed on 8H stage, which was home for both of them.

Facts

He didn't have to edit for language for one thing. Also he didn't have time on SNL for a guitar solo

James Noble for someone who’s played guitar for years, that solo was dogshit, love Sandler either way but we can go without the guitar solo

I liked them both. The Netflix version because it wasn't censored, but the SNL version because you can hear his emotion. Either way, the song itself is a fabulous tribute to his best friend......

Lol, ikr!👏

Thanks! Now I can't stop! Lol

Was he a crackhead also
