The comedian stopped by _Conan_ Tuesday night and used some of her couch time to talk about her creation, the beloved talking snail (?), Marcel the Shell. It turns out that Marcel isn’t just talking anymore, but covering pop songs, too. Slate showed off the shell’s skills by singing a few lines of Fleetwood Mac’s “Landslide,” telling Conan O’Brien, “just a little bit because I don’t want you to have to pay.” Stevie Nicks would be so touched. Slate noted that Marcel the Shell’s voice is “so little, so little,” but as Conan points out the adorable univalve sure has some “big lungs.” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3639741/marcel-the-shell-fleetwood-mac/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3639741/marcel-the-shell-fleetwood-mac/"},"headline":"Watch Jenny Slate as Marcel the Shell Sing Fleetwood Mac on Conan","datePublished":"2014-12-18T15:22:55.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:15:26.451Z","description":"\"Landslide\" didn't take Marcel the Shell (with Shoes On) down","url":"https://time.com/3639741/marcel-the-shell-fleetwood-mac/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","Music","Videos","conan"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Locker","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3639741/marcel-the-shell-fleetwood-mac/","name":"Watch Jenny Slate as Marcel the Shell Sing Fleetwood Mac on Conan"}}]}] ```
