Jimmy Fallon Invites Trey Songz to Translate Lyrics to ‘Na Na’ for the Uncool People

Video clips like this, is why Arsenio just couldn’t compete.

The Jimmys are everywhere.  They are  funny, versatile and these skit’s hit the internet and get shared by millions.  Both Fallon and Kimmel bring “it”, night after night and both have the ability to span demographics bringing in huge numbers and leveraging social media to keep those numbers up.   I love you Arsenio but until you can compete on this scale; your Woot, Woot days are over.  (Stephen Colbert, I hope you are listening)

JIMMY FALLON AND TREY SONGZ

In this bit, Jimmy is providing a service for the older fans that might not understand the lyrics to Trey Songz hit song “Na Na”.

Kimmel is just good at what he does.  He has Trey Songz sing his song, line for line, and then he translates it into common English. [more…]

An Example:

Trey Songz:  “Ooh na-na, why you gotta act so naughty”

Jimmy Kimmel: “I question why you’ve behaved inappropriately, even though I am aroused.”

You get the gist….now here’s the clip.

 

While we are on the Jimmys (pause)…How about a Fallon-Roots Classroom Instrument session.  Yes this has almost 20 million views.

 

AND WHY YOU ARE WASTING TIME…..

To be fair to Arsenio let’s throw in a fan favorite – The ladies loved it when he had the guys from “The Best Man Holiday” recreate their New Edition Dance. Just listen to the audience screaming like undersexed housewives….We will miss you Arsenio….Again.
