Lol I love all these people in the crowd pretending like they know all these songs.

[miguelmckenzie]

The thing is, the wealth of music knowledge between all three is inanely impressive. As much as Fallon may be kidding around, that man knows his music. As for Pete and Common, that goes without saying.

[damiansilva]

This was so good! Great choice with “As” Common.

[aaronandries]

The Roots! Casually playing the Sanford and Son theme song out of thin air lol. They're the best

[dakotac]

Jimmy excited to be invited to the bbq 😂

[Jordanthetwin]

Greatest song of all time...Pete Rock & CL Smooth - They Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y))

[crowndogg]

Common should won the round with Maze "Before I let Go". Only better answer is Grover Washington's " Mr. Magic" . Everybody's dancing..

[friendswitdadealer]

The Sanford & Son theme song would be an AMAZING Hail to the Chief for Jimmy!🎵🎶

[adamkis]

First time I've ever seen Jimmy win a game! He always rigs it so his guests win and leave feeling good about themselves.

[noyayay]

i just knew it was summer madness before he even said it 😂

[evanhoffman]

My three answers would be… Norman Greenbaum "Spirit in the Sky", Dick Dale "Misirlou", and Queen "Bohemian Rhapsody". 4:41 Ooh, I totally got this…

[RCAReacts]

I'm wrecking my brain trying to think of the Best Song Ever...Jimmy just throws out Sanford & Son...and he ain't wrong!
