Tracy Morgan 'More Responsive' Following Surgery After Crash
30 Rock star's rep says his improvement is an 'encouraging sign'...
Tracy Morgan's rep has said the actor is more responsive and showing encouraging signs after receiving surgery following a serious car crash.
The 45-year-old actor was involved in a multi-vehicle accident on Saturday (7 June) which left him in a critical condition.
The 30 Rock star and former SNL cast member was travelling with six other people in a limousine bus on the New Jersey Turnpike when the vehicle was involved in a collision with five others.
The actor is still being treated at the Robert Wood Johnson University after breaking his leg, femur, nose and ribs in the accident.
His rep confirmed that he seems more responsive following an operation, and that they expect him to remain in hospital for several weeks.
"His family is tremendously overwhelmed and appreciative of the outpouring of love and support from his fans," his rep said in a statement.
James McNair, 63, better known as comedian Jimmy Mack, was killed in the accident.
Fellow comedians Ardie Fuqua, Harris Stanton and Jeffrey Millea who were all travelling with Morgan at the time were also injured.
A truck driver has been charged following the crash.
Glass on the side up
I've been sat with you
For most of the night
Ignoring everybody here
We wish they would disappear
So, maybe we could get down now
I don't wanna know
If you're getting ahead of the program
I want you to be mine, lady
To hold your body close
Take another step into the no-man's land
For the longest time, lady
I need you darling
Come on set the tone
If you feel you're falling
Won't you let me know, oh-ooh
If you love me, come on, get involved
Feel it rushing through you from your head to toe, oh-ooh
Oh-ooh
Sing (oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
Louder (oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
Sing (oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
This love is a blaze
I saw flames from the side of the stage
And the fire brigade comes in a couple of days
Until then, we got nothing to say and nothing to know
But something to drink and maybe something to smoke
Let it go until I wrote a change
Singing we found love in a local raid, no
I don't really know what I'm supposed to say
But I can just figure it out and hope and pray
I told them my name and said it's nice to meet ya
Then she handed me of a bottle of water filled with tequila
I already know she's a keeper
Just from this one small act of kindness, I'm in deep
If anybody finds out, I'm meant to drive home
But I'm drunk and gonna live it now, no?
We just sit on the couch
One thing led to another, now she's kissing my mouth
I need you darling
Come on set the tone
If you feel you're falling
Won't you let me know, ooh-oh
Ooh-oh
If you love me, come on, get involved
Feel it rushing through you from your head to toe, ooh-oh
Ooh-oh
Sing (oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
Louder (oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
Sing (oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
Can you feel it?
All the guys in here don't really wanna dance
Can you feel it?
All that I can hear is music from the back
But can you feel it?
Found you hiding here so hoped you'd take my hand, darling
Before the beats kicks in again
Can you feel it? Oh
Can you feel it? Oh no, no, no
(Sing) I need you darling
Come on set the tone
If you feel you're falling
Won't you let me know? (Louder), ooh-oh
Ooh-oh
(Sing) If you love me, come on, get involved
Feel it rushing through you from your head to toe (louder), oh
Ooh-oh
Sing
