It is more than great! Thanks for posting it. I don't think anyone has been as qualified as him to take over the Tonight show. The man has so many talents. And this one tops them all. He couldn't have been closer to the younger Neil Young.

This is about the third or fourth clip I've seen of Fallon and I agree....he's really talented. Time to start watching again!

One of the most talented on air personalities ever.

For my money Fallon has be the greatest host in the Tonight Show history and I'm going back all the way to Jack Paar. I always felt Carson was the best. Leno was terrific but Fallon is truly gifted.

Steve, you have nailed it. His talent is so broad it's surround sound in a mono universe.

Steve Allen was before Paar
Fallon's musical skits are typically right on and this one is at the top of the list IMHO!
Amir you are correct, phrasing and intonation were eerily good.

Fallon is amazing and clearly the most musically talented host ever to sit behind the Tonight Show desk. What is truly amazing about him is his range. I saw him perform as a back up singer when Arrowsmith's Steven Tyler sang "Walk This Way" and I swear, if Tyler dropped dead in the middle of it and Fallon had to continue as the lead, you might never know the difference!

Download sales of "Old Man" increased by 600% the week after this show aired.

Fallon is the most talented singer and does a great job of mimicking other singers and actors. That said I am already tired of his shtick. He fawns over all of the guests, talks to much and laughs like a teenager when interviewing them at some pretty dumb stuff. Lately I have now only been watching when he has a guest that really interests me.

Looking forward to when Stephen Colbert takes over for Letterman to see if he is a viable alternative.

Jimmy does amazing impersonations of numerous rock stars.Check out his Jim Morrison clip.
Put Jimmy and Justin Timberlake together and it's always a hoot.

Welcome to the millennial mentality taking over TV. Now I know why my parents generation is grumpy. Can't stand Fallon now. Leno was better by a long shot. I guess that happens when you are an older baby boomer. Millennial's suck ! Lol
