No, you mean "ride your horse to the hamburger stand NOW". Don't forget that you know. Then you need to take yoga, learned to say hola, because you know a girl name Lola, and you drive a Corolla, I mean a Camry, ignore the Corolla.
This was and will always be the FUNNIEST first drafts of rock. I remember seeing this when it aired and it’s that thing of like…it’s funny the first couple times then you stop laughing cuz you get it…and then it enters that magical realm of Peak Comedy and the tears start. *chef’s kiss*
As someone who was raised on Seger, I gotta say they nailed the Chris Campbell lookalike on bass and Alto Reed on tambourine. Couldn't stop laughing, what a great impression (even though Seger didn't cut his hair short until a few years after he wrote 'Old Time Rock'.
I made the mistake of only listening to every other line. Now I can't move for records on my floor. On the upside, all of my shelves have plenty of room.
I think this is hilarious. The full minute of very serious build-up to three minutes of just dumb humor kills me. Plus, the commitment to the idea (no matter how dumb of an idea it is) with costuming and makeup that's true to the era really sells it. It's hilarious! I'm really surprised that a major network would let this kind of humor go on--it feels like something you'd see more on Adult Swim.
This is actually how they wrote music a band or an artist would get great chords put together but instead of writing lyrics they would use filler versus (like this) and the beatles did this a lot EXAMPLE: the beatles hit song "yesterday" was originally called "scrambled eggs" before they could come up with actual lyrics so this is actually historically accurate
Do you guys feel the guitars growling to be let loose? Excitement at it's best! First-time I looked at the humble six strings as two prowling tigers with mean eyes that pierce your souls n a growl that freezes your blood. Ice cold on a hot August night that's Jimmy Fallon.
I love this, mostly because I do the same thing with Journey's "Dont stop believing" by repeating the lyrics "Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world."
I always thought the idea of the silver bullet band was a wink and a nod to judy garlands funny song about her view of rock and rollers, their dress, hair ect (one eyed one armed flying purple people eater)....kind of had a Halloween reference And Silver Bullets kill vampire and werewolves (a wink and a nod).
Imagine the planning session for the skit: “We have to add more lyrics!” Then Jimmy saying, “Trust me on this” 😂
TODAY'S MUSIC AINT GOT THE SAME SHELF
🤣👌🏼
@@yasisoufi ,
Today's shelves are not the same.....flimsy
“and then guess what ... put them back in the shelf!” omy😂😂😂
That part did me in 🤣
Sounds like they were running short of lyrical ideas on this one...🙄
I just love how diverse the lyrics are in this version
The genius to these skits are that they replicate the videos exactly with the same camera angles and shots. Brilliant
I like how the other band members are playing so seriously like they don’t know it’s a parody. 🤣
Because it’s not a parody (it is) it’s the original serious song.
@@starspangledbat I know. Silly me. I just found this version on streaming…😊
And every time I hear Seger's version on the radio, I now sing this!
I think a first draft of Hotel California would be very interesting.
How would that go? 😏
Yessss
Don Henley would use his 16 Full-Time employees to block the video.
Four years later, here would be my suggestion: it's just six minutes of describing what it's like in an actual California hotel.
put the records off the shelf and then ride your horse to the hamburger stand
robert shelton 😅😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
robert shelton but first you have to know how to spell doughnut lol
It's spelt D-U-G-... oh wait...
lol i just watched all these videos back to back. so good

I can tell Jimmy (and the rest of 'em) have so much fun doing these remakes. I love it!
This is why I like the old time shelf.
Forehead Jones I forgot, where should I put these old records again?
Right back on the shelf, bro
but then what do we do next? I'm confused.
then take those old records out of the shelf
Ah OK. Makes sense. Thanks.
Love Jimmy’s hand movements to show us how to take records off and back on the shelf. 😊
This inspired me to take my records off the shelf...and then put them back on the shelf.

Even though they were background, "Alto Reed" and "Chris Campbell" stole the show! Alto even did the thing with his feet!
I think this was the haircut and shirt from a live performance 1983?
I like the part where he takes his records off of the shelf, then puts them back on the shelf.
My favorite part
The guy playing the Tambourine !!😂😂😂😂
I could listen to this all day long
This is the BEST! I've never done karaoke, but I think I'm gonna make a trip just to do this song Fallon style.. it's hilarious!!!
this is how a person with a.d.d remembers to do things
robert shelton - HYSTERICS!!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
OCD*
I GOT YA! I DONE GOT YA!
@@josephsuarez9594that too
Laughed my ass off when I first saw this....
I'm just watching for the first time today and my cat didn't know what the heck was wrong with me, lol.
Just to be clear: What exactly am I supposed to do with the records after I take them off of the shelf?
You put em back on the shelf!
Got it 👍🏽
@@tawnygaona9114 yeah but then what
Put them back on the shelf!!! Didn't you hear the song?
I haven’t finished listening to the song, but I’ll let you know what to do when I get there.
part of the humor is how good jimmy is at these impersonations
Top shelf stuff here!!!
I've never wanted some records to be on a shelf more in my life.
Jimmy giving an incredible bob seger imitation. Amazing. just like him
Now you won’t hear the regular song without hearing this in your head lol
When he said, "then put those records back on the shelf.." I really felt that..
I watch this, laugh, then immediately go to TH-cam to try and watch it again. Success!
As previous commentators, I would like to get the lyrics from this masterpiece.
Keep up the awesome work Fallon and all the writers behind it.
How are we supposed to learn it when the lyrics are so complicated
Today's music ain't got the same shelf...I know that's right!
Gabrielle H Yeah, exactly. I didn't think this was a very original sketch but you have to admit that today's music ain't got the same shelf.
Tambourine guy is having the time of his life.
Love this song, we're all on a shelf right now 2021😁😂
The hand motions and dancing and tambourine player lmfao
He had way too much energy just for signing the same couple of lines over and over again 😂😂
Now I understand why Bob Seger has been saying for a while that he wrote new lyrics.
I can't Stop watching! buahahah Best part : "Sorry I meant to say take em off of the shelf"
😂yes at that point he lost track for a second where the records were
Just take those old records off the shelf
And take those records, put 'em back on the shelf (X16)
🎶Just take those old records off the shelf…🎶
I would love to have Jimmy Fallon's job. He gets to have fun all the time for a living!
Jimmy, your impersonations are spot on!
I never know he is such a musician, now i see Jimmy in a different way...
I don't know why, I can't stop laughing!!!!!!!!!¡¡!!!!⁄⁄!!!¡¡ It must've been a really cluttered room full of records that needed to be organized.
This is like a Sesame Street parody of the song. By which I mean, it's f-ing brilliant.
Oh my gosh! I just saw this and made me laugh so hard I p--d myself. thank you I needed that Love it Jimmy
I'm sorry, I must have missed something. You want us to take the records off what? And where do we put them back????
I made the mistake of only listening to every other line. Now I can't move for records on my floor. On the upside, all of my shelves have plenty of room.
Mad respect Jimmy!

I love this more then I can put into words
That kinda shelf just soothes my soul
I do this with songs in my head, Jimmy read my mind and stole my shit.
Peter Savad everyone does it :/
I was there. This was awesome!
It sounds the great, but it's killing me, I want so badly to hear him say the real lyrics. I guess I'm so used to the final draft of the song, LOL.
I should be writing my ma thesis actually but I put the books back on the shelf
And the old records said to Bob (Jimmy): "Well I heard some people talkin' just the other day...and they said you were gonna put me in a shelf."
GENIUS!
Hey, lots of artists made hits with only a few words repeated! Genius Jimmy, genius!🙌🏻
This still makes me laugh.
Fallon is amazing!
i never realized that he made this video. im from detroit so i love bob seger this is great.
This was one of the greatest music bits on his show yet! But I still think his Jim Morrison impression was better.
I Hit the like button first before the video even began
Am I the only one that thinks the blonde dude looks like David spade 🤔🤣
That looks like Anthony Kiedis on the drums
This shit is hysterical. BRING BACK FIRST DRAFTS OF ROCK JIMMY!!!!
This is hilarious. I'll bet Bob Seger is laughing his ass off right now.
JUST LOVE HEARING HIM ,,,THIS SONG IS ONE GREAT ONE ,,PLAY IT OFTEN
Do you guys feel the guitars growling to be let loose?
Excitement at it's best!
First-time I looked at the humble six strings as two prowling tigers with mean eyes that pierce your souls n a growl that freezes your blood. Ice cold on a hot August night that's Jimmy Fallon.
Props to the other band members for keeping a straight face the entire time!!!
It's 2017 and I'm still laughing my ass off.
Try 2019 🤣
@@erica4669 Try 2021😁Were all sitting on the shelf🤣
@@cuccicucci4480 2022: shelves are outdated
Ahh! I love this song so much!
And finally put them back on the shelf😅😆😂bleh!!😄
Is this really live?!!?
Fallon is sick on the guitar, man!!
This is why I watch Jimmy Fallon.
PS: nice telecaster!
so talented
Damn. That has quite the strain on the voice to do that line over and over again.
Had me busting up laughing so hard!
Me watching this:alright some old time rock n roll 2 seconds in :this ain't right🤔
Underrated classic
I GOT CHA!!!.... I DUN GOTS!!!!!!!!
There's 4 minutes of my life I'll never get back.
Classic Shelf.
Get those damn record's off the shelf already
Hahaha!! I keep coming back here for a laugh!!!!!
if we keep putting it back on the shelf then wtf are we listening to ?
obsessed!
I love this, mostly because I do the same thing with Journey's "Dont stop believing" by repeating the lyrics "Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world."
Too funny!!! LOVE IT!!!
Imagine being high on mushrooms and then this song randomly came on in the background and you didn’t know it was Jimmy Fallon’s version.
Fuck it, I'm just gonna keep holding these records.
Hahahaha! This is hilarious!
“Hyaah. I done got ya!” *knocks mic stand over
EPIC line, right there!
When Jimmy Fallon is as good of a guitarist as you are XD
If your guitar is plugged in live, you're doing better than he is
I think the bassist is David spade
That was the best thing I've ever seen.
HOT SAX!!

Played perfectly :) Lighten up people!
