More Cowbell Featuring Will Ferrell on Saturday Night Live

Saturday Night Live | NBC | S25 E16 | 5:32

“More Cowbell” is a pop culture catchphrase from an April 8, 2000 Saturday Night Live (SNL) comedy sketch and is often considered one of the greatest SNL sketches ever made. a record producer insisted blue oyster cult, add a “little more cowbell.” he was right. the music sounded so much sweeter with that extra somethin’ something’.

it is my mission to incorporate more cowbell, to add that extra je ne sais quoian intangible quality that makes something distinctive or attractive. into everything i do.
