Hey there-I just wanted to say that listening to Jimmy Fallon last night on my drive home pretty much made my night. Then, you played The Roots over the break (which I haven't listened to in years), and it sealed the deal. I am currently trying to break the internet trying to find out what song that was. Thanks for a great night!

Here’s all the music from yesterday’s show. We played a couple tracks from The Roots…but it should be one of the ones listed.

“I would sit to the left of my wife every night at dinner and look at her and try to ask her about her food and stuff but you don’t know what it’s like until you’re in the situation and talking to people. I interviewed strangers. I interviewed my mom. … She was an awful guest. She kept wanting to cut to a clip. And we have no clip. She’s not in a movie. She’s my mother.” —Jimmy Fallon tells Terry Gross about practicing for his Late Night gig.

“If I can hold all my dreams, through the night of the way life sometimes seems. If I can’t see where to go, I’ll stay lost in silence ‘til I know.” — Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Where Is Love Now? (via lesoupiramoureux)
