I'm always impressed when someone famous can jump on a musical instrument you didn't know they played - especially a drum set!! - and play passably. 👍!
Jim is so unique because he can really humble himself, drop the big star ego, and really do the sketches the way they were meant to, then do his own comedy on other bits that are himself: stand up and movies and such.
I can remember watching this when it aired like it was yesterday. I nearly pissed myself laughing when Carrey popped up behind the singing guy. Classic.
@@JustinP ~That's not a laugh track, that's clearly a live audience, that is mic'd🎤 and can be heard because this was live television... Not a bad sit-com from the 70's....
Love the jokes in this, but to this day I never tire of watching that member of the band nailing those high notes over and over again perfectly, especially when he’s laughing at the carrot joke lol
3:23 Conan's affected disappointment with La Bamba's inability to be professional and keep it together is hilarious considering that he knows what kind of show this is 😂

Stoltz played a character (Rocky Dennis, based on a real life person) with a facial deformity and wore a large prosthetic setup in the role. If you look up photos of the film, you may notice a slight resemblance, unintentional as it was, to Conan.
These years were so much fun!
Ah... when Jim Carrey was still fun
The laugh tracks made is so cheesy and cringe, LuL.
Pickett 710 those weren’t laugh tracks. It was live and real. Are you really that slow?

@@JustinP those weren’t laugh tracks
I always loved how they were predicting what would happen in the year 2000 back in 2003.
And the skit continued until the end of his late night run lol
They starting doing it in the 90s and just kept going even though it was no longer the future but the past.
@@1TightMinute even in the 90s it was ridiculous as the year 2000 was only several years away
@@rs.matr1xthat was the whole premise of the sketch
@@loboneiner1034 It continued on his brief Tonight Show run as The Year 3000
This is still the best one of this series of sketches. The carrot joke, Jim's delivery, La Bamba breaking character, it's just so damned funny.
Agreed on all points
never seen labamba break in these before. but he did manage to carry that tune without seeming like he laughed.
Jim Carrey’s smug assessing-the-damage look afterwards only makes it better.
The Louie Anderson joke is what got me 😂
I remember watching this when it aired. That carrot joke had me on the floor laughing. It still gets me all these years later.

works even better because you forget about it, then are reminded about it.
I do as well. And La Bamba was cracking up is what got me.
Same! Came here looking for that very joke
I love Jim's smirk 😂
That carrot joke has been rattling around in my head for 20 years.
Could be rattling elsewhere
joke...?!?
La Bamba laughing cracks me up
The laugh tracks made is so cheesy and cringe, LuL.
classic!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@@localandonlinepreciousmeta3575
He's slow.
While STILL STAYING ON PITCH! Now THAT'S a pro!
Jim Carey singing at the end is pure gold
In the year two thou-S AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHnd
Pretty cool falsetto. Now I want to hear a falsetto duet from them!
Jim playing guitar and drums at the end was also flipping hilarious

He once said "shame has always been an alien concept to me". And that explains everything about him.
@@Bubu567 Sounds like you're describing Trump.
@@4seeableTV cringe
Labamba cracking up gets me every time
Jim Carrey's shit-eating grin after the carrot one. 😂😂😂
THE BEST.
Man I miss this Jim Carrey
I miss this conan too
RIP 😢
Hes still the same Jim Carrey, I assure you
he went nuts and became a prick
Conan looking at La Bamba cracking up, is the best thing ever! XD
This is still hilarious 20 years later 😂😂😂
In the year 2000, four years ago will be 20 years ago.
Time to come back.
NOW you can say it's 20 years later
3:33 that smirk
Oh god the hilarious nostalgia 😂😂 I miss this.
This video will either add to your nostalgia or ruin it...

The carrot joke still has me crying.
Jim Cary broke the singer! I’ve never seen him laugh while doing this!
two of my favorite comedians how did I not see this before
2020 is approaching. Bumping this.
Almost 6 months into 2020 and it's making me miss 2000 that much more.
Half way through 2020, I’d prefer the reality of these predictions.
Oh no... :(
2023 now and the economy is a bust... hopefully the year 3000 will be better.
The Mask Part 2 joke almost knocked me out of my chair
I didn’t get it. Lol.
@@derrikferguson3219 Google "Rocky Dennis"
@@derrikferguson3219 "The Mask" and "Mask" were 2 different movies "Mask" was a movie made in 1985.
Look up the movie Mask starring Eric Stoltz then you will. @derrikferguson3219
@derrikferguson3219 well, Google rocky Dennis. It's worth it. He was a character in a movie called Mask. plus he kind of looks like Conan
The best part of this bit was that they kept it as the year 2000 even after 2000.
This was my favorite segment out of all late night talk shows... Awesome
I can remember watching this when it aired like it was yesterday. I nearly pissed myself laughing when Carrey popped up behind the singing guy. Classic.
Thank you Conan, team and Jim for one of my favourite moments
Classic. By far one of the best in the year 2000
I remember watching this way before the year 2000! 😎
The show was so, so good during this era!
This was the best late night show. And "The Year 2000" bit, along with the "Masturbating Bear" were 2 of the best comedy bits ever.
Remember when this wasnt on the internet for some reason? Goated clip.
That beedy, side eye look that Conan does at the 1:00 mark should be a gif.
Look both ways before you cross the street...
...& Jim "Almighty Then" Carry!
Loved these bits. The John McCain one was my favorite.
I miss this sketch so much!
This was my favorite Conan segment!! I love how "the year 2000" was so far in the mythical future 😂. La Bamba never cracked!
LaBamba also cracked when AL Franken and Mr. T did In The Year 2000.
I suddenly have a deep rectal itch.
🥕
The laugh tracks made is so cheesy and cringe, LuL.
@@JustinP ~That's not a laugh track, that's clearly a live audience, that is mic'd🎤 and can be heard because this was live television... Not a bad sit-com from the 70's....
Raymond's here to help.
One of my favorite Conan bits
That Louie Anderson joke was a 10/10.
did you notice that a life after death joke followed right after?
I can’t believe this was 20 yrs ago
I love how the crowd starts cheering for La Bamba!
I remember watching this sketch on actual TV 😄. I'm old, but glad I was alive during that time. Simpler times.
I like how this bit still went on after the year 2000. 😂
👀 *adding carrots to shopping list*
cukes toooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jim and Conan are awesome together
Oh my god I lost it during jims singing!
lol Theres another time the joke was so good even the singer guy could barely hold his laughter.
Conan was the last great late night show IMO
This just in. He’s still on tv
@@fezzik7619 I meant the NBC version. New network just isn't the same. The late night following the Tonight Show
Ive never seen the Carrey Edition... so awesome.
I always come back to this video and I always Die when it cuts back to Jim's face after the Carrot joke.
I miss this era of Late Night
Bliss was it in 2003 to be young and have great expectations for the decades to come.
I miss this segment and also "SECRETS!"
I so miss the days!!
I loved that this joke ran on well past y2k
forever go down in history.. love this bit. IN THE YEAAAAR 200000000000000000
Jim nailing the "What we though Justin Bieber would look like when he got older" look.
Love the ending
I miss these segments
The good old days
Hey thanks for posting this
Unbelievably classic
This was one of the best bits Conan ever had on the show.
I saw this on an airplane when I was 8 years old lol
Me and my friend Tom to this day just randomly say to each other in high pitched voices: "In the year two thousaaaand."
conan needs to bring this back for the year 3000
That JLO joke is still relevant
I used to love this segment
3:05 is one of the funniest jokes ever told on television.
Love the jokes in this, but to this day I never tire of watching that member of the band nailing those high notes over and over again perfectly, especially when he’s laughing at the carrot joke lol
This was my era!
Why did I laugh the most at Jim messing up the outro music? Lol
Lol me too
Best late night-er of all
The look of pure satisfaction at 3:33
That Knicks joke had me choking!
Clay3613 where?
That joke had the Knicks choking too.
Jay Leno could never pull off “In the year 2000.” This show was awesome.
Leno had the "Mr. Brain" sketch, which was pretty funny, but not as good as this Conan bit.
"headlines" was good
Jay who?
His chin would block the light
@@sk1ll_z1lla82 Jaywalking, too.
I love back when late night TV was good.
This skit was legendary lmao
Conan + Carrey = comedy napalm
The jlo one was so spot on at the time.
It's awesome how Conan got everything correct.
peak Conan
Not the J Lo joke still being relevant in 2024 😂
I wish they kept doing this bit.
You know it's a good one when Labamba laughs too much to sing the song. 😂
A chilling look in to the future!
golden era
Reminds me once again that EVERYTHING WAS BETTER in the 90's
This was the 2000s
Was a great time to be alive.
I love how the guy singing couldn’t help but laugh at that carrot joke
I always thought i was good at keeping a straight face, but man Conan really was skilled at it
Jim the Legend!
I'll never look at Bugs Bunny's carrot fixation the same again.
"What's up, Doc?" indeed.
I watched it live. Omg I was only 12!
The carrot joke stays with you forever.
The Louie Anderson chips-in-the-coil atheism joke was pure genius.
3:23 Conan's affected disappointment with La Bamba's inability to be professional and keep it together is hilarious considering that he knows what kind of show this is 😂
Hahahha! Jimmy V's like "Yah man. I can't really play while you're doing that, but cool. Sure."
Boy do I miss when Conan was good. . . His announcer Joel was one of my favorite skits.
i just turned 18 the day before damn man i can fell the air in this clip i wonder if i watched it
LMFAO Mask 2 : The Rocky Dennis Story.
I forgot who that was then when I looked him up LOL!!
Context of joke?

That would be preferable to staring in the actual Mask 2...
it's so funny that after jim said rectal itch, everyoe went silent and were just starring at jim.
Literally.. Dead 💀 faced. Now the acting.. YESYESYES!!
