"Batdance" played on Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon

According to Funkenberry's twitter: Twitter.com/drfunkenberry

Props 2 4 the use of "BATDANCE" 4 's intro on

Guess NPG Publishing and the Tonight Show are in good standing! They used "Chocolate" By The Time a couple months back too!

Sucked though. After they played the tune Keaton asked which song it was. And when Questlove was just about to say Prince he stopped him and said "If there's no title can that become my themesong"

The reason Keaton asked what song it was because it was almost unrecognizable. Not a shining moment for the Roots.

They are actually singing "Birdman", in tribute to his new movie most likely, not Batdance at all.

Agreed. The band performance was awful.

Keaton asks, "What was the tune before that tune?" Is he referring to a previous song?

this is correct they sang birdman not batman and the music was a take on the Vikki Vale section of the song
