When Frank the Pug is singing I Will Survive, the only reason it's funny is that Will is in that shot trying not to get angry. A shot of a dog singing I Will Survive on its own will not get a laugh.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't think Will does get upstaged because his reaction is always funnier than what is actually happening. That is also the reason Tommy is funnier than Will.
We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.
Everybody really needs to laugh... If you don't laugh, you're not going to live long.
I will laugh at the laughable while I breathe.
I have to laugh because despite the destruction, we cannot let 'them' steal our pleasure. That is always the theme of my performances: I'm here to thrive, not just to survive.
Whoever has the luck to be born a character can laugh even at death. Because a character will never die! A man will die, a writer, the instrument of creation: but what he has created will never die!
Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.
When we were doing 'Live at Benaroya,' the song 'I Will' was hard to get through. I've always get a big lump in my throat when I sing that song. And also 'Before It Breaks.' So I'm just a different songwriter now. And the older I get, the more difficult it becomes to deliver those songs casually.
Anybody with a sense of humor is going to put on my album and laugh from beginning to end.
I think I will die laughing.
