Last night, on his second evening as the new host of the Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon presented another throwback: this time, to the early ’00s.
Fallon, along with his barbershop quartet The Ragtime Gals, presented a smooth (although somewhat less sultry than the original) rendition of R. Kelly’s iconic 2003 single “Ignition (Remix).” The most memorable parts include the sophisticated “Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce” from Fallon’s solo, as well as the harmonized “toot-toots” and “beep-beeps.”
A new spin on a familiar tune, with some old-time flavor? Yes, please.
