    Damn Jimmy Fallon is talented! You can actually tell he puts in hard work and he uses his talents... he dolphinately deserves his job

      @russelcrowedemarlonbrando9932 9 років тому +44

      plz explain "dolphinately" - such an interesting wording!

      Definitely...but like a dolphin.....and better

      CalvezTheKiller dolphins are just cool. Can one hate that animal even on a bad day? It's like a panda - except they like to fuck.

    I love that Jimmy gives props to the writer that had the initial idea of combining Neil Young and Fresh Prince. This is part of why Jimmy is a class act.

    Jimmy Fallon is spot on with all his impersonations that he does 100% of the time.

    • @Hellwyck
      @Hellwyck 7 років тому +3

      No, he's not.
      He doesn't do impressions 100% of the time and when he does, only his Seinfeld, Neil Young and a few others are good. His Paul McCartney and John Lennon impressions are desperate.

    • @chippchipp1
      @chippchipp1 7 років тому +4

      TheFeralcatz It's pretty good, but not perfect. Neil's voice is more frail and nasally.

    • @kqatsi
      @kqatsi 6 років тому +3

      The vocals were pretty good, but it would have helped if he could hack it on the guitar and harmonica, because that part was nothing like Neil.

      ive practiced morrison for years and got him down pretty great and sitll can't touch Fallon's casual impersonation, although I think I got Jim's gutteral screams down a bit better. But he masterfully captures JIm's style and mannerisms which I can't touch so hats off to the master. :) Check my channel if you like soft parade "tell all the people" :)

    @kevinmccluskey8899 6 років тому +5

    Funny is funny. But you can really tell when someone is talented when they can nail one impersonation after another. Jimmy kicks it up by then doing "bits" like Neil singing Fresh Prince. Perfect!

    Wow, I watched his show since late night until the tonight show and I thought that all his music skits were much edited to make him sing and play good. This clip just enlightened me that his music talent and impression are the real deal. He's so freaking talented! I feel amazed.
