[edit] April 24

[edit] SNL personnel questions

I don't watch SNL or anything else due to not having TV, but I occasionally watch clips on youtube and other sites. I've been using WP, IMDb and other sites to figure out who these actresses are, but to no avail. So... Who is the actress who played Harry Potter in THIS skit and the short old maid in THIS skit (The other two are Scarlett Johannson and Tina whatsername), and who's the actress playing Jane Pauley in THIS skit? Thanks in advance. Anchoress 01:27, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

The actress in the first two is Rachel Dratch; I'm not sure about the third one. The third one is Kristen Wiig. Carom 01:42, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Wow, thanks for the quick and complete response. Anchoress 01:49, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
No problem (too much time on my hands, really...). Carom 03:06, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

'both sides of the fence' is a widely popular saying, so this will be tough. do you have any more of the quote to go on? do you know the context in which it was said? the_undertow talk 22:12, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] j pop - lookng for a hit of early 2003

Hi there!

Does anyone know what is the name of the artist and the title of a hit I heard all around Japan in Jan 2003 - it is by a female pop singer - and as I don't speak Japanese I haven't any idea of her name or the title!!

It was really popular - being played on the radio and in shops

Any help appreciated!!

Thanks

That is really really broad. Really popular artists include Hikaru Utada and Ayumi Hamasaki though. You can start there. --Wirbelwindヴィルヴェルヴィント (talk) 04:23, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
You will have to find the Oricon charts for January 2003. Unfortunately I have started collecting Oricon songs only from April 2006. And Oricon website is in Japanese. Shinhan 18:25, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
