Jimmy Fallon and Kevin Bacon Parody The Beach Boys' Fun, Fun, Fun
Posted on August 1, 2015
When the Beach Boys released the single Fun, Fun, fun in 1964 it became a huge hit. The song describes a Southern California teen who sneaks out in her dad's Thunderbird so she can zip around the town. The lyrics sing that "she'll have fun, fun, fun till her daddy takes her T-bird away." Well, Jimmy Fallon and Kevin Bacon have revealed that the original song's lyrics were a bit different from the final version.
Jimmy, Kevin and some friends got dolled up in perfect Beach Boys gear and performed a perfect parody of the American classic. Only this time they pretty much only sing about hamburgers. Yes, they took the lyric about "cruising to the hamburger stand now" and sang it over and over. There are some details about what they put on their hamburgers, though. When they finish their hamburgers, they realize they're still hungry so they head back to the hamburger stand.
Kevin Bacon does a mean Brian Wilson on the falsetto, although his hair owes more to Al Jardine. Jimmy gets to dance and sing as Mike Love -- even with his busted finger. The dancing beach girls in the back and the black and white cinematography make it even more authentic. Of course the Roots make the sound just perfect. Who knew Kevin Bacon could sing falsetto?
