Jimmy Fallon & Billly Joel Duet... With A Difference

[Stephen_G]

This could have gone into of number of categories. Jimmy Fallon uses an app to create a four-man doo wop group with Billy Joel and sings The Lion Sleeps Tonight. Have a listen because I think it's brilliant.

Go through the link and underneath the video is this passage...

[i]Fallon incorrectly identified the app as “The Looper” on the show, but that didn’t prevent TV viewers impressed with the demo from finding it: The Loopy HD app, which costs $7.99, shot up to No. 1 on Apple’s rankings of paid iPad apps, up from No. 201 before the telecast. The app is now down to No. 16, which is still impressive.[i]

What fun!! A real feel good vibe to it, thank you.

It's currently on iTunes for £2.49, for either the iPad or iPhone.

I love how they make out that this is not rehearsed - yeah right!

Acoustic musicians use a looper all the time.

So instead of listening to a pro musician like Billy Joel with a rehearsed TV host - check out my friend Polly who constrcuted this when she was sixteen - and see how it is done with some real skill.

That was fun. Wouldn't have recognised Billy Joel though.
