Bank account on low? Then you probably spent Saturday night staying in watching re-runs of Top Chef and Saturday Night Live. For the most part this week's SNL episode wasn’t that funny. Blame cougar-loving host Ashton Kutcher. However, Saturday night chillers let out a universal chuckle when SNL IT-boy Andy Samburg spoofed everyone's favorite mellow guitarist Jack Johnson in a little clip calle.

Jack JohnsonSleep Through the Static6 out of 10It's a Tuesday night. You get home from work, tired and beat, and you're ready to pour yourself a drink.

A cool mellow one from one of my favorite modern singer songwriters. Jacks got the best voice. It always reminds me of being at the beach. The video above is the first time I heard his music. Been a fan since.

He also plays great covers....This is a nice version of a Beatles classic...Also one of those disputed songs that...
