John Legend & The Roots Perform Springsteen’s “Dancing In The Dark” (Video)

There’s plenty of love for Bruce Springsteen at URB HQ (except for the time I tried to play the entire three-CD Live 1975-85 boxset in the office. That got ugly). The problem is, The Boss doesn’t exactly fit into the whole emerging underground independent techno/hip-hop/indie thing we like to slang around here. So call it a nice crossover that The Roots, fronted by John Legend, performed Springsteen’s mega-hit “Dancing In The Dark” on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.

WATCH Portishead “Mysterons” & “Chase The Tear” On Fallon (Video)

Portishead are known for taking their sweet time. The Bristol trio’s third album, Third, was released in 2008, 11 years after their second, self-titled album. And unlike any other band we can think of after that long of a hiatus, it was as if they didn’t miss a beat.

Last night, the group appeared on Jimmy Fallon, following last week’s gig at ATP, which featured a guest spot by Chuck D. Fallon marks their first U.S. television appearance since 1998 on SNL.
