TV on the Radio: Staring at the Sun | The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon

I am so excited to see this!!! We miss you so much TVOTR!!!!!! Please don’t stop making music, please! 🙏🏻

Kip at the end when Jimmy does his theatrics was like "dude get the fuck away from me" lol

Where's the other vocalist?

🔥

I had to close my eyes because those flashing lights almost gave me a seizure 😕 but the performance wasn't for me. I'm happy they're getting exposure, but not for me.

I was late to the game on TV (found them about 5 years ago) but am glad I arrived.

LOVE TV On The Radio! Had Will Do stuck in my head today, happy to see them on the show.

Where is Dave???

If you like TV on The Radio, please come to my channel and check out my album.

I like the original version much better.

That was it. They sounded amazing. I wish I could see them live 🍻

One of my most favorite songs from my youth. I put them on the same pedestal as radiohead and grizzly bear. So eclectic and emotional. Nobody sounds like them

Incredible take on one of their best songs. NEED a studio recording of this version yesterday.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssss!!!!!!!!!

Thank you, universe. WOW WOW WOW!

Firing on all cylinders

Doesn't feel right without Dave

I love this performance. How they can still make a song 20 years ago feel fresh and invigorating after so long is impressive. Hope that they'll still do well.

No white dude with striped telecaster?

Pure passion and unnatural talent, such a great band! 💥💜

Saw them at Belly Up in San Diego many years ago. The energy was unmatched.

Oh hell yeah!!!! Tunde signed my concert ticket back in like 2011. Love this band

I wish Dave could have joined them! He is a big part of this band! We’re buddies at least and I know he has a lot happening!

so sitek moved on?

Don't know why but I just cried a little bit. Great to have these guys back

I remember seeing them when they toured their 2nd album, it was in Tokyo. I was grabbing a bite to eat and they all sat on the table next to me. I was so nervous i couldnt say anything! The show itself was okay, the rhythms were all different and the lead guitar was just so loud and piercing!

Makes me sad not seeing Dave Sitek on stage. I don't know what's going on there but I hope you're in good health David and you get hit the stage at some point. Overall, it's wonderful seeing one of my favorite bands of all time playing again. All love.

RIP Gerard Smith. Great performance!

Well that was AMAZING! 🤯

Amazing

An episode of Entourage with this song was my introduction to this band back in like 2007 or 2008.

I seen them twice live

I've seen them about 4 times. The first time, it was only Tunde, David, and Kyp.

holy shit this is making me happy

One of the best live bands I have ever seen. Saw them perform about 10 times in Seattle and Vancouver...

See you guys on Saturday! Can’t f’n wait!

🔥💜🔥

Speechless. Incredible band and artistry.

I've always skimmed over their stuff, but watching this makes me think I should give their albums a proper listen.

Still so rousing still as spellbinding. That was gorgeous!

Sounds closer to initial demo version that they reworked a little.

Great performance, but I miss Gerard Smith (RIP - note that he was replaced by two musicians) and David Sitek, who's probably busy producing, but, d*mn, that guy could tremolo pick.

Where's David Sitek? Didn't see him.

What a time to be alive!!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

I got to see them 20 plus yrs ago in small venue in Portland Oregon, and such a spectacular performance

Here for Aaron Feinberg

Jimmy, your show sucks big time

Amazing

Where's Dave Sitek? You can hear something is missing. Its like having an offensive lineman going down and trying to shift players around to make up for the absence, but losing the push up front.

They sound great! I miss Dave Sitek tho… I wonder why he’s not participating anybody got the lowdown?
