Fallon does a pretty convincing Petty, but the highlight here is clearly Stevie Nicks, because she’s Stevie Nicks. The duo stays pretty faithful to the original video: ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/57417/stevie-nicks-jimmy-fallon-tom-petty/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/57417/stevie-nicks-jimmy-fallon-tom-petty/"},"headline":"Watch Stevie Nicks And Jimmy Fallon (as Tom Petty) Expertly Recreate a Classic 1981 Tune","datePublished":"2014-04-10T16:40:54.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:08:41.035Z","description":"Jimmy Fallon does a pretty mean Tom Petty impersonation, and Stevie Nicks does a pretty mean Stevie Nicks impersonation","url":"https://time.com/57417/stevie-nicks-jimmy-fallon-tom-petty/","keywords":["Newsfeed","jimmy fallon","tonight show","Arts","The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon","tom petty"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"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/57417/stevie-nicks-jimmy-fallon-tom-petty/","name":"Watch Stevie Nicks And Jimmy Fallon (as Tom Petty) Expertly Recreate a Classic 1981 Tune"}}]}] ```
