The video doesn't work for me but is Samberg just saying a bunch of nonsense words like "Cubs...it is all about the Cubs...Rizzo...Bryant....Series...bats....hot dogs....sing it for Harry....Cubs....Billy Goat....curse is broken...Old Style....bleachers....clark....waveland...Sheffield....Addison Russell....Let's play two...Someday...Bartman....Moises Alou...Wrigley....never tour in October..."

I was just talking to a buddy the other day about how awful Pearl Jam karaoke tends to be because people try to do an impression v. singing the song. This strikes me as further proof of that.
Yeah he said I'm Eddie Vedder and I love the cubs.
Was he confused with Yel led? and I did hear a lot of Sandler in that one. Not very creative and yes weird. he did apologize to PJ. It was just supposed to be fun right?
Oh please let it rain today.
Those that can be trusted can change their mind.
Lighten up. It was an over the top (meant to be bad) Ed impersonation and I thought it was a funny bit satirizing the sappy In Memoriam segments of award shows and leading up to a hilarious finish with Fred Armisen "dying".
You guys are way too serious. It was supposed to be a bad imitation. Lighten up people.
It was funny enough...anytime someone imitates Pearl Jam is better than hearing some crappy music imitated! Also, Sandberg has been growing on me with Brooklyn Nine-Nine. I think that if you don't like him, you are not going to like this impression.

pretty sure this was a shitty impersonation on purpose
He wasn't trying to win a contest, he was trying to be funny. He succeeded cause that shit was hilarious I think we take ourselves a little to seriously here

This is painful for all involved.
This strikes me as further proof of that.

Samberg even made fun of how bad and ridiculous it was during the skit....twice.
I think he got drunk and decided to do some improv.
Fail.
(The opening monologue was great btw)
