[ The Roots play Journey's
"Don't Stop Believin'" ]
- Just a small town girl
-Where does she live?
- Living in a lonely world
-Did she stay there,
or was she traveling?
- She took the midnight train
going anywhere
-Thank you!
So only a small-town girl,
right?
- Just a city boy
-Oh, there's more people.
Where's he from?
- Born and raised in
South Detroit
-I've never been there.
I heard it's nice.
- He took the midnight train
going anywhere
So they both took the same train
and went to the same place.
Gotcha!
- A singer in a smoky room
-What does the room smell like?
- Smell of wine
and cheap perfume
-Those things smell bad.
- For a while they
can share the night
-Okay. Uh-huh.
- It goes on and on
And on and on
-Whoa, that's really long.
- Strangers
-What are the strangers doing?
- Waiting
-Where?
- Up and down the boulevard
-Yeah, but what are
their shadows doing?
- Shadows searching
In the night
-Is that the end of the song?
- Streetlights
-Oh, there's more song!
- People
-What are people's life goals?
- Living just to find emotion
-Oh, neat!
- Hiding
-Where and when?
Somewhere in the night
-Thank you!
Hey, are you having fun?
This is fun!
Aah!
My brother's name is Gabriel.
He lives in Sacramento.
- Working hard just
to get my fill
-Do only some people
want a thrill?
- Everybody wants a thrill
-That's what I thought.
Just double checking.
- Paying anything to roll
The dice just one more time
-Does everyone win?
- Some will win
-Do some people lose?
- Some will lose
-Are some people born
to sing the blues?
- Some are born to sing
The blues
-Called it.
- Oh the movie never ends
-Wait, what movie?
- It goes on and on
and on and on
-Long movie alert!
- Strangers
-Wait, the strangers are back?
- Waiting
-Where are they waiting now?
- Up and down the boulevard
-Are there still shadows?
- Shadows searching
in the night
-Hey, you know what I miss?
The streetlights!
- Streetlights
-Yes, they're back!
- People
-No, go back to
the streetlights!
- Living just to find emotion
-Who gives a crap?
More streetlights!
- Hiding somewhere
in the night
-Fine, I guess I'm over
the streetlights.
- Don't stop
-Don't stop, what?
- Believin'
-Okay, I won't.
Hold on to that feeling
-Okay, I will.
- Streetlights
-Streetlights!
- People, oh
-Streetlights, people!
Streetlights, people!
- Don't stop
[ Cheers and applause ]
[ Cheers and applause ]
