Hello, fellas.
Wow.
Well, the first thing I'll say is, my little brother
and little sister, when I first told them I'd be on the show,
my little brother goes, I wonder if her eyes
are bluer in person.
So Ed and Abigail, they're definitely, definitely bluer.
Beautiful, beautiful.
Definitely, definitely bluer.
That's so sweet.
Thank you so much.
Well, I loved you all's video so very much.
And you're doctors at the Mayo Clinic?
Right, we're both orthopedic surgery residents.
Doctors who are in training.
And you know, the video, it's been
amazing to see the response.
And one thing is, after surgery when
we're done operating, patients are usually always asking,
you know, oh, what time is it?
When's the Ellen Show coming on?
So it's awesome to be actually on the show.
He's telling the truth.
It's amazing.
We will finish a full day of surgery.
We'll go up and see our patients to check on them.
I'll be trying to examine the patient,
and they'll just be batting me aside.
I turn around.
Ellen Show, every time.
Eventually I just quit and just sit there and join them.
Really?
It's every time.
It's pretty cool.
Every time.
Wow.
So it's awesome to be part of that.
So, because they say laughter is the best medicine.
So all of us working together is really good.
So you fix them up, and then I finish them off at the end.
Yeah.
It's literally perfect combination.
All hospitals should have my show on every single day.
Prescribe that every time.
I'm honored that the Mayo Clinic has my show on.
That's really cool.
So what made you-- first of all, you have beautiful voices.
And what made you post that video?
So, you know, you end your show every time with, be kind to one
another.
And this video was our embodiment of that message.
You know, Elvis and I have been friends for a long time.
We recently found that we had a shared passion in music.
And we've also been realizing more and more
that music, and some of the intangibles,
play just as much a part of the healing,
and the spiritual, emotional healing,
as does the drugs and the surgery and everything
[APPLAUSE]
Yeah.
So after a 28-hour call shift, we
sat down and played the song.
And it's been amazing.
That's fantastic.
So Elvis, your dad is a cab driver?
Yeah.
So my dad-- so this is actually funny.
When I told my dad that I was going to be on the show--
my dad, his first words were, [SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
Which translates in English to, you've got to be kidding me.
There's no way that you're actually
going to be on the show.
And then he goes on and on.
So my dad, he's probably in the cab
somewhere in New York saying, you know,
my son is training as a surgeon in the Mayo Clinic, you know?
I don't know if you watch The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
He will be on the show on Tuesday.
So you know, you should watch.
Meanwhile, somewhere in New York, that's happening.
So I mean, if we took like a picture,
he'd probably have it on the dashboard in the car.
Let's take a picture.
We should probably.
We should probably take a picture, for sure.
And you perform for special patients?
There was one girl in--
Lila.
Yes, ma'am.
Yeah, so Elvis and I had the opportunity
to play in front of some children.
One particular child, Lila, she's
nine years old from Mississippi, battling leukemia.
Her immune system is such that she cannot join the other kids.
And so Elvis and I had the opportunity
to go in and hang out with her one on one,
play for her one on one.
It was amazing.
She was pretty underwhelmed with our musical abilities.
However, when it came up that we were
going to be able to join you on your show, her eyes lit up.
She screamed with excitement.
And it truly was powerful to us, just how much your reach is,
and how much you mean to all these kids everywhere.
Well Lila, if you're watching-- and I'm sure
you are, because that's what you're doing.
Everybody does, right?
Lila, I'm sending you love, and I'm sending you strength.
And I want you to keep smiling and keep just laughing,
and fill yourself with joy, and listen to those guys.
They're actually better than you think.
They are actually really, really good.
And I want you to get better and come see me at the show.
So that's your goal, is to get better so I can meet you, Lila.
All right, and you're going to perform for us, right?
Just a little.
All right.
Yes ma'am.
All right.
[APPLAUSE]
[MUSIC PLAYING]
(SINGING) When you're feeling low and there's no one around.
When it looks like it's over and life's got you down.
Hold on to me, brother.
I'll be here when you need.
Because there's a brighter tomorrow.
This I actually believe.
Because everything, yeah, everything
is going to be all right.
Everything, yeah.
Everything is going to be all right.
Because when you're feeling low and you
can't see the light, everything, yeah,
everything is going to be all right.
So wipe those eyes.
It'll be all right.
Yeah, don't you cry.
It'll be all right.
And I know, and I know, and I know,
and I know there'll be troubles outside.
But everything, yeah, everything is going to be all right.
[APPLAUSE]
Beautiful voice, oh my god.
Thanks so much for having us.
Beautiful.
This is incredible.
Thank you so much, you're amazing.
I got you some gifts, all right?
Hold on.
I have to give them some gifts before they leave.
The next time you make the rounds,
I have some things for you to wear.
Oh my, that's awesome.
An Ellen a day, this is true.
That's right.
