Because It's Friday: Paul Williams “Here’s that Rainy Day”

Posted on February 10 2012, 12:02pm | Author: R* Q | Filed Under: Rockstar, Music

A bizarre treat we had to share.
 
Bona fide polymath Paul Williams, one of America’s most underappreciated talents with legendary contributions to the worlds of music, stage and screen - performing the jazz standard “Here’s that Rainy Day” in full ape makeup while promoting his appearance in “Battle for the Planet of the Apes” on Johnny Carson’s show one night in 1973.

                It's even more absurd when one realizes he can't possibly put the cigarette in his mouth with that makeup on. On the "Apes" sets they gave the actors cigarette holders to use on breaks, which is another strange image.

                Thanks Rockstar, I'd never seen this, and I love Johnny Carson and Planet of the Apes.

                          What a confusing mix between funny and weird video!

                                @i-jizzed-myself all the random numbers and speculations makes you look like a conspiracy theory nut. i highly doubt that rockstar would release there games under some kind of encrypted codes or hidden messages.

                                oh and the video made me laugh. like it when R* just puts random vids on there website!

                                  Indeed he's a funny musician. It's also funny how it was socially acceptable to smoke on late night TV programs. You won't catch that anymore on Leno, Letterman, O'Brien or Fallon. How things change! But humor never dies. :)

                                      Oh.. okay... i thought that by "other titles" you meant "other future releases"..... well, it's very frutrating coming every freaking day here to see something about GTA V, and instead of that, finding a video of an ape singing.. hope you understand Rockstar.......

                                        So now if you don't put a singing, smoking monkey in one of the clubs in GTA V, we are coming down there and beat you with large dildo.
