Chevy Chase and Jimmy Fallon play piano duet with 1 jacket, 2 hands, several off-color jokes

Chevy Chase and Jimmy Fallon do a 2-handed piano duet

published 23 July 2015

There's been some speculation that Chevy Chase, at age 71, is slowly losing his marbles. He played that up on Wednesday's Tonight Show, calling Jimmy Fallon "Johnny" and making pretty not-family-friendly jokes about how he injured his right hand. But it was clearly an act, and Chase was on his game when Fallon asked him to play a duet on the piano, Chase with his good left hand and Fallon with his good right hand. They share a jacket, for unnecessary comic effect, and do a serviceable version of one of the easiest songs in the piano repertoire. And it's fun. Watch below. Peter Weber
