Free love on the free love freeway…

Did anyone else happen to catch Ricky Gervais doing his bit of filler at the Diana Memorial Concert? He sang his Office classic.
"Free love on the free love freeway,
Love is free and the freeway's long,
I got some hot love on the hot love highway,
I ain't going home 'cause my baby's gone.... she's dead"
Don't get me wrong, I love the Gervais as much as the next person. He's brilliant. But honestly... a split second after Stephen Merchant added his well reherased adlib I had the instinctive reaction to suck air through me teeth and say "Oooo! That's a bit off!".
At the end of the day this was a memorial concert for a woman who died on the highway with her much-frowned-upon lover...
Jonny would have bloody loved it.
