If you have a favorite duet from the last 50 years, there's a good chance Jimmy Fallon and Kelly Clarkson perform it in their "history of duets" on Monday night's Tonight Show. Everyone from Human League to Sonny and Cher get sing-outs, plus some musical collaborations you might have forgotten about (yes, we're talking about you, Paula Abdul and MC Skat Kat). And finally, we learn a vocal impression Fallon can't do: His Aaron Neville is terrible. Otherwise, grab a seat and enjoy the show. It's a good one. —Peter Weber
