This week Jimmy Fallon and Joseph Gordon-Levitt showed off their karaoke skills, singing as David Bowie and Axl Rose, respectively. If you didn't get a chance to see Radiohead last night, this won't make you feel any better... but it's somethin'.

Oddly, no Pink Floyd was performed—the show has been celebrating the band all week. On Monday, the Shins performed "Breathe"; Tuesday night the Foo Fighters and Roger Waters performed "Into the Flesh"; and last night MGMT performed "Lucifer Sam", with Deerhunter's Bradford Cox. Tonight Dierks Bentley will play “Wish You Were Here," and tomorrow night will conclude with Pearl Jam performing "Mother."
