Black Simon and Garfunkel appeared on last night’s Tonight Show for their latest folkie cover of a pop hit. This time the parody duo—aka The Roots’ Questlove and “Captain” Kirk Douglas—brought their black turtleneck comedy to Taylor Swift’s “Bad Blood,” complete with choreographed head turns and a coda of the “lai-la-lai” from the real Simon & Garfunkel’s “The Boxer.” All in an evening’s work for the two members of the Roots, who have performed hits like “Royals” and “Roar” since Fallon’s Late Night days.
