   So I just went onto Peacock and called up SNL, and the episode (2/9/1985) where Bryan Adams played the clam in the middle of RUN TO YOU is there, but the musical performances aren't there. Just the sketch comedy.

   I suspect the musical artist can keep you from showing their music on shows like SNL if they want to. But I'd be curious to know why it isn't there, in case it's a reason different than the one I am suspecting.

     @Ricardus Probably is because of music rights and/or licensing issues. Happens all the time in the world of streaming and modern music rights getting more expensive.

     I recall that the Married....With Children series (at least on Disney+ and syndications) had to use generic music because they couldn't get the full rights to the iconic Frank Sinatra theme Love and Marriage.

     Same goes for the Evangelion TV series outside Japan with Sinatra's "Fly Me to the Moon".

     @joeo10 One o fmy favorite shows, Northern Exposure, had ALL of the music taken out (radio type music) and replaced with canned CRAP for the DVD release. I just don't enjoy watching them.
