It's all about the concept. Brilliant. Lyrics...meh. Bowie imitation...meh. Even the mirror effect on the camera to make him appear left-handed strumming the guitar was cheesy, as his jersey appeared mirrored as well.
But it is a great concept and was pulled off very well. Live.

That was great...and prophetic (regarding Denver's chances against Brady & New England). No complaints about this video, although it seemed like Fallon was doing an impression of the Bowie impression from Flight Of The Conchords:

That wasn't an effect to make him appear left-handed - whoever posted it to YouTube reversed it so that NBC's (or whoever's) content-monitoring software wouldn't flag it. There are a ton of videos showing up now like this in an attempt to avoid being taken down. You can see it at the beginning of the video - the show's logo is reversed.

Stoopid. This video going "viral" is the best advertising NBC could possibly get, & it didn't cost them a cent.
Is one of the current requirements to be a media executive an iq below 50?
