For Jimmy Fallon's last waltz on "Late Night" before transitioning to "The Tonight Show," he was joined by some very special guests. The Muppets dropped by to join Fallon in a sweet, sincere rendering of The Band's seminal 1968 song "The Weight." Fallon plays drums and sings (Levon Helm-style), while Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Fozzie, Scooter and the rest of the gang take turns signing; Animal screams. It's all reminiscent of Martin Scorsese's iconic concert doc "The Last Waltz," but minus Bob Dylan and a coked-out Neil Young. The video ends with Fallon leaving the party for another one, »
