Wang Chung's 1985 song "To Live and Die in L.A." was used as the theme song for John Mulaney's recent Netflix talk show Everybody's in LA, and it turns out they had no idea it was gonna happen.
"It's a total surprise that it's blown up in the way that it has," Wang Chung lead singer Jack Hues tells Variety, noting he found out the song was being used for the six-episode show from "the guy who does our merch."
Wang Chung is scheduled to play Los Angeles in August, and they tell Variety they hope to hook up with Mulaney in some way.
Meanwhile, Mulaney is giving the band props for their song on social media, responding to the Variety interview with the comment, "There was no second choice for theme song. Thanks @WangChungMusic for the whole vibe."
