Jimmy Fallon is mostly a rock guy. But sometimes the situation just calls for a slow jam. And that time is news time.

Yesterday we brought you the inevitable Jeremy Lin/’Teen Wolf’ mash-up ‘Lin In The End.’ But really what everybody has been waiting for on the Jeremy Lin song parody front is for someone to step up and remake the Pearl Jam classic ‘Jeremy’ into an ode to the New York Knicks sensation. Jimmy Fallon, who doesn’t generally need much of an excuse to channel a rock legend like Eddie Vedder, is now that

On his late-night talk show Thursday night, Jimmy Fallon channeled Eddie Vedder to sing a tribute to New York Knicks sensation Jeremy Lin. Fallon reworked the lyrics to Pearl Jam‘s classic ‘Jeremy’ to reflect the ‘Linsanity’ that has taken over the NBA the past few weeks.

The 2004 cult movie favorite ‘Napoleon Dynamite’ returns as an animated comedy on Fox next week, with original Napoleon Jon Heder voicing the title role. To promote the new show, Heder showed up on ‘Late Night With Jimmy Fallon’ Monday in his famous Napoleon Dynamite outfit, and proved that he still has all his most famous character’s incredulous “jeez” and “whatevers” down pat.

‘The Twelve Days of Christmas’ can be a tedious song to sing (and listen to), so Jimmy Fallon livened it up a bit on Wednesday’s ‘Late Night.’ Instead of three French Hens, eight maids-a-milking, and six geese a-laying, Fallon and his ‘Late Night Carolers’ sang about Charlie Sheen, Kim Kardashian, the Royal wedding, Herman Cain, Occupy Wall Street, and other big news stories from 2011.

One of the great holiday memories from the ‘Saturday Night Live’ of the 1990s is the ‘I Wish It Was Christmas Today” song that Jimmy Fallon, Tracy Morgan, Chris Kattan and Horatio Sanz used to perform. This year, our holiday wished came true and we got to see it again last night when Fallon hosted the show.

Last night’s ‘Saturday Night Live’ was all about remembering the good times with ex-cast members like Jimmy Fallon, who hosted, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. All three big names are former Weekend Update anchors, and what better way for them to celebrate the fond memories than to throw down a good, old-fashioned ‘Joke Off?’

‘Baby, It’s Cold Outside’ is a fun song (with kind of creepy lyrics). It’s usually not performed with Chipmunk voices, however. But on a recent ‘Late Night,’ Maya Rudolph joined Jimmy Fallon for a funny Christmas duet.

It’s December — have you started your holiday shopping yet? If you’re the type of person who waits until the last minute you might be interested in this clip from ‘Late Night,’ where Jimmy Fallon gives us the pros and cons of Christmas shopping.

Betty White is probably the best ‘Password’ player in the history of the game, having guested on the classic game show her late husband Allen Ludden hosted for so many years. But Jimmy Fallon really, really wants to beat her.

Jimmy Fallon is known for his impressions, whether it’s Barry Gibb or Justin Bieber. On ‘Late Night’ he imagined what it would be like if Doors singer Jim Morrison sang the theme song to ‘Reading Rainbow.’ It’s actually rather uncanny.

Last night on ‘Late Night,’ Jimmy Fallon celebrated Halloween by engaging in round of “pumpkin bowling” with ’Project Runway’ host Heidi Klum. Because what else are you going to do with pumpkins after Halloween?
