Watch Jimmy Fallon Imitate Jim Morrison and Sing the Reading Rainbow Theme

If the title of this post sounds odd, that’s because I’m drunk it is. Late night host Jimmy Fallon has shown that he has some great musical chops, channelling rappers or Eddie Vedder. The latest number he takes on must be the result of an extremely late night drinking session. Jimmy Fallon and the band sound and look like The Doors. Okay, normal enough. The song they sing? The theme song from LeVar Burton’s children’s show, Reading Rainbow. But it somehow works. Check it out, and see the awesome original version below, in case you don’t know it (but you KNOW it). Oh, to be young again and have awesome TV shows.
