Answer
Kelsey Grammer
Answer
Kelsey Grammer
Kelsey Grammer performed Frasier’s ending theme, “Tossed Salads & Scrambled Eggs.”
The song plays over the closing credits of the original sitcom and is sung by Grammer, who also stars as radio psychiatrist Frasier Crane. Its relaxed jazz-pop sound helped give the show a distinctive sign-off, even though the lyrics do not directly summarize the characters or plot.
Composer Bruce Miller and lyricist Darryl Phinnessee created the theme. The phrase “tossed salads and scrambled eggs” works as an unusual metaphor for the confused, mixed-up callers who seek Frasier’s advice on his radio program. The song’s final lyric also suggests that those troubled voices are calling again, connecting the whimsical imagery to Frasier’s work as a call-in host.
A frequent mistake is assigning the performance to another cast member, such as David Hyde Pierce or John Mahoney. Grammer’s spoken performance as Frasier can obscure the fact that he also supplied the singing voice. The 2023 revival retained the tradition with an updated version performed by Grammer.
