He came out in the outfit you see for the first music set.
i have listened to, watched and loved this song since I first heard it.
I went out that next day and the album!
Should Martin have won an EGOT (Emmy, grammy, oscar and a tony) for his SNL performance of this song?

Love that song. I got to see Steve Martin in concert in 1978.

@JohnRoberts — I did! So did a lot of other people. Balloons, too. You could tell something was funny just by looking at the queue waiting to get in!
