I'm not a huge Adam Sandler fan and I am a huge Warren Zevon fan...but Adam truly blew me away with his cover. He doesn't do a straight-up imitation but he sings in a way that's seriously respectful of Warren's original. Check out "Enjoy Every Sandwich", the tribute album that was produced after Warren passed...some great stuff.
Werren's version is goofier and more light hearted. I can you think this bland cover with the back up singers doing the oh oohs in perfect harmony to be more light hearted. The song was never meant to have that level of perfection.
Man this is great! I never realised that sandler could play and sing this well! Came looking for the greatful dead version of this song, but this is fantastic too!
I never knew Adam Sandler could sing he's actually quite good and I love his choice in songs, Werewolves of London is one of my favorite songs. He's very talented and funny. A rare combination.
I saw The Wedding Singer. He did not sing better than your average church choir- which is to say, he hit the notes, but didn't have any "star quality". Mind that I am a professional singer. ... THIS performance shocked me. Sandler sounded almost as good as Zevon, which is saying something.
Oh, yes! He's sang in "The Wedding Singer", "50 First Dates" and "Eight Crazy Nights", plus he's made 5 comedy albums and filmed an HBO concert special in 1996; also check out his duet with Miley Cyrus on "No Freedom" right after the Las Vegas shooting last year on "Jimmy Fallon"... it shows off his serious side
That was awesome. I just came to know about the many friendships Warren Zevon had with so many other talented people. Enjoy Every Sandwich, sage advise and also a beautiful memorial dedication.
Always been a fan of Adam sandler. This rocked. He's a talented actor and a good musician as well. This is the first time I've seen and heard him Perform on stage. Besides the times I've seen and heard him sing in movies, but this is completely different than the movies .
Average performance but Sandler does it straight with no funny business until the end and of course there's gotta be a little funny business or it wouldn't be a Sandler performance. I liked it.
Damm Adam..you is livin dude good job loved your Jamm ! Good to see Waddy Wachtel in this line-up. One of the most underrated guitar players there is. Really good! Love Zevon, don’t care much about Sandler, but this rocked!
Sandler is VERY underrated. His goofiness overshadows his talent and he has it in spades.
Punch drunk love is one of the greatest dark comedy/super hero movies I’ve ever seen. Wish he was given more serious projects.
@@lukeholman7574 he makes his own projects
@@lukeholman7574 I loved Punch Drunk Love but couldn't stand Uncut Gems which induced a Little Nicky migraine!
There's a david spade joke here somewhere I just can't figure one out yet lol
Very true
Adam Sandler did more justice to this song than I ever would have expected. Respect to him and RIP Mr. Zevon ♥️

My cousin has a copy of the Warren Zevon tribute CD. Great stuff on that disc.
Well done adam
Fantastic Adam loved it so much!!
100% with you
Absolutely!
I’m a huge Zevon fan... this was actually much better than I expected
I think even Warren would approve
Yes, this was pretty good. Dave really liked Warren.
Me too!
If adam sandler covers something, its completely sincere.
Not a bad version
I like his voice! Didn't know he could sing and play guitar!
Like a boss
He released several albums...
Where have you been?
You gotta see his Hanukkah song, and the one he did in tribute to Chris Farley.
You dont know Adam can sing and play guitar?? Where have you been the last 30 years!?!? 😄
He clearly can't.
ADAM..... YOU FUCKIN ROCK
This is such a FUN song to party to. R.I.P. Warren Zevon. Great job Adam!
my respect for Adam has just gone up, great job mate.
Everybody's got a little bit of a rock n' roll star in them.
Adam has a great voice and pretty nice guitar skills! I am impressed
I have to agree! Amazing!
Props to Adam, this is a good cover and he's talented
“Enjoy every sandwich” tattooed on my thigh. I love when people ask about it and I get to share Warren Zevon with them. Love this
Adam Sandler's version's a bit more lighthearted and goofy than Warren's, but he brings his own energy to the song, which I like.
Werren's version is goofier and more light hearted. I can you think this bland cover with the back up singers doing the oh oohs in perfect harmony to be more light hearted. The song was never meant to have that level of perfection.
And exactly how could anyone be goofier than the late rock star who boasted, "I GOT TO BE JIM MORRISON FOR LONGER THAN HE DID!"?
I honestly didn't know if this was going to be some type of parody...I'm glad it's not 👏🏼
He does Ah-hoooo very well. He's got a vibrato to it.
jeremy lin
He’s actually a great entertainer, probably one of the better renditions of this song
R.I.P. Warren Zevon.
Holy shit bro, no idea Sandler could shred like that, great song, beautiful cover.
freakin wow
❤wow❤ Warren Zevon would be so proud!
I love you Adam and I especially love you Warren! Thank you Adam for covering this great tune.
how could I have missed this? superb.
Man this is great! I never realised that sandler could play and sing this well! Came looking for the greatful dead version of this song, but this is fantastic too!
I love the backup WOO-OOO harmony! Really adds to the song.
I never knew Adam Sandler could sing he's actually quite good and I love his choice in songs, Werewolves of London is one of my favorite songs. He's very talented and funny. A rare combination.
Wow I came here thinking he was gonna butcher the heck out of this song and I am extremely impressed! Great job Adam!!!!!!
Usually hard to cover such an iconic song and half the time it turns out just embarrassing...not here. This is pretty bad-ass.
Best cover EVER of this song! wow!
Grateful Dead covered it too. Not bad as well
Never get tired of listening to this.
Great job Adam !!!
Why is people so surprised that he can sing? Dint you watch the wedding singer? Remember the song grow old with you? Cmon guys.
fuck u
NinjaJokerHD ?

Hanukah song y’all

He used to sing and play guitar all the time on SNL! Isn’t he great? 😁

FANTASTIC live performance. Just awesome.
RIP Warren Zevon. You're well missed.
Get this man a beer, he deserves it!
Amazing! I’m a crazy fan of Zevon, and I love Adam Sandler as well.
I think Warren would have totally loved this!
That was amazingly good by Sandler
Changed my opinion of Adam totally,brilliant cover.
Fantastic rendition love this guy♥️♥️

Sandler has got the right ruffnesz in his voice for this song , well done
I knew Adam Sandler was talented, but he blew this one out of the park in my opinion!!! Rock on!!!
I’m very impressed! You did it Adam !!!!! ♥️🖤♥️
This is such a cool way of singing this song.
That was awesome. I just came to know about the many friendships Warren Zevon had with so many other talented people. Enjoy Every Sandwich, sage advise and also a beautiful memorial dedication.
WELL THAT WAS FAAAAAÀAAAAAAAAANTASTICO!!!!!!! BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!
Made me want to hold up a Bic lighter.
Damm Adam..you is livin dude good job loved your Jamm !
Shit, did not expect him to play/sing this one so well.

I don't know how I got here, but I'm glad I did. Sandler rocked it.
Thanks Adam well played I thought I was the only Warren fan but obviously not your a better guitarist than actor thanks
FNA! Now that's how you rip down a cover. Right on Sandler!👍
Great tribute to the man. Rip Warren.
Damm Adam..you is livin dude good job loved your Jamm !
Stellar version. All it's missing is Tom Cruise dancing to it with a Balabushka in his hand 😁😁😄😄
Yes ! I actually really like Color of Money,even if Tom Cruise is way over the top with his acting.
The colour of money 😜
@@jazzyjeff7431 It’s kinda part of the Fast Eddie character, no? Even his name suggests that energy.
“Whatcha got in there boy? “
“In here??…… Doom.”
This was Adam Sandler paying respects to both letterman and warren zevon. Warren and letterman were good friends.
GREAT---ADAM SANDLER SURPRISED ME!
First time seeing this video. Have to tell you I'm pretty impressed. Cudos to Adam Sandler!!
He’s got chops.
Why is it every actor thinks he could be a rockstar ? just saying . love this song
Música é vida❤😂
Damm Adam..you is livin dude good job loved your Jamm !
Good to see Waddy Wachtel in this line-up. One of the most underrated guitar players there is.
Really good! Love Zevon, don’t care much about Sandler, but this rocked!
Warren Zevon music is everlasting. Thanks, Adam Sandler
Kudos to you Sandmen. Right on
WHAT THIS IS SO GOOD I’M SO CONFUSED
Excellent cover, Mr. Sandler & the Late Night Orchestra!
He rocks this one.🎸🎸🎸🎸👍👍👍
Really good! Love Zevon, don’t care much about Sandler, but this rocked!
Kinda threw me aswell!! A good cover job!!!
This is 'EXCELLENT'
David Letterman loved Warren Zevon and I think that it was wonderful that Adam performed it ,RIPWarren Zevon
Sandler kills it like “rock star” is his first and only talent. More than superb!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!!
I watched the whole damn thing. Good stuff sandman.
Just brilliant
Hey Adam ... give up your day job & start singing for a living. Love this version as much as Warren Zevon's original. Well done!
Who doesn't LOVE ADAM SANDLER?
Was never the biggest fan of this song, but I love the energy he brings to it
Oh this is too friggin cool! I love the original, but this is great!
Gotta have the piano!
But they did a good job with it in every other way
This is surprisingly pretty good! Also, Sandler's singing and playing of the guitar was pretty good here.
Letterman was a huge fan and friend of the late Warren Zevon. That's why.
That was actually pretty fantastic.
Great version Adam . Warren would be proud!
Holy crap! Very nice.
Great job Adam!
Every song Adam has ever sang is his voice, Especially all the songs in Wedding Singer.
Saw Adam Sandler on the late show last night doing the werewolves of london. Aaahoooo
Great job Adam you are a funny comedy actor it's been fun watching you over the years
Wow, really surprising. Thought it'd be character singing but he handled those transitions into falsetto very well.
THE GUITAR SOLO CRACKED ME UP
This is a killer. Great job by Sandler 👍👍
Great job
Nice cover!
Have to admit, wasn't expecting much when I clicked on this video, but Adam did a pretty good cover.
God I wish I had his confidence. He's the man!!!
Adam Sandler + The Late Show = Awesome
Would love to hear Radiohead do a cover of this, I think they'd do a great job. This one is surprisingly good, though.
Good job, bro!!!
I LOOOOOVE him SOOOOO much. Perfection Personified in Hippie Chick's eyes man. He's a "Magic" Man.🤩
Brilliant Adam Sandler!!!
loving it from Perth WA😉👍
Awesome, rock on. 🤘🏻
