John Legend & Jimmy Fallon can’t believe it’s March again; Duo performs parody poking fun at the past year
John Legend recently appeared on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon, and the duo poked fun at the past year during the pandemic. They also performed a parody of one of John’s famous song.
John Legend and Jimmy Fallon cannot believe it's March again. In the recent episode of The Tonight Show, Fallon, 46, and Legend, 42, marked the first day of the new month by singing about a full year of quarantine amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Set to the tune of "Belle," the opening song from Disney's Beauty and the Beast, the late-night host first reminisces about life in quarantine, including moving from one side of the couch to the other and learning different TikTok dances.
Fallon is then joined by Legend midway through the song, who croons, "Oh, isn't this amazing? / Wasn't it just March 2020? / I've forgotten what time means / And I haven't waxed my chest since quarantine week three." The tune comes to a close with Fallon and The Voice coach singing in unison: "52 weeks and 53 Zoom weddings / 600 laps around my den / Plus a million shanty songs and a Quibi come and gone / No I can't believe it's been a year / It really has been quite a year / I can't believe it's really March again!"'
The new collaboration between Fallon and Legend marks the latest relatable tune crafted by the Tonight Show host amid the pandemic. Back in March 2020, Fallon taught his two daughters — Winnie Rose, 7, and Frances Cole, 6 — to wash their hands with a song at the beginning of the pandemic, titled "Wash Your Hands," before he released a song titled "Starting to Crack" later in April.
