-Oh, my. You look fantastic.
Thank you for being here. I appreciate it, bud.
-Hey, buddy, how are you? -I'm great.
Let me explain how this game works.
Okay, in front of each of us
are the incorrect names of a number of famous songs.
Okay? All these names are close
to the actual name of the song but not quite right.
So when it's your turn, you're gonna read out
the messed-up version of that song title,
then the other person tries to guess the correct song title
based only on that clue.
We have to guess as many songs as possible
before the timer runs out.
Ready for this?
-You're making it sound like it's easy.
It's hard.
-It is hard, but I don't know what they're gonna be.
I don't plan it. But I think you'll --
We'll be good at this.
We've done music things together.
-Correct. -We're good partners.
All right. -Right.
-Since you're the guest, you're gonna guess first.
You're gonna get 45 seconds on the clock,
and I'm gonna give the clues.
I think we're gonna do this. Ready?
We'll work as a team. Here we go, bud.
-Okay. Who's first?
-I'll start going and see how many we can get.
-Okay, go. [ Laughter ]
-All right. Ready? -Yep.
-Here we go. [ Chuckles ]
Okay. "Pelvic Bones Tell the Truth."
-"Hips Don't Lie." -That's correct!
That's exactly how you play the game.
[ Cheers and applause ]
"Not Particularly Taxing on Myself."
-What? [ Laughter ]
-It's a really new song.
♪ Taxing ♪
I'm gonna pass. I'm going to pass that one.
Passing. Go.
"I Would Like to Experience Rhythmic Movement
with Another Human."
-"I Wanna Dance With Somebody"!
-That's correct! Oh, you know how to do this.
"Liquid Atop Movie Theater Popcorn."
-Water -- -No. Water?
[ Wah wah! ]
Close. "Butter."
-You said liquid. -"Butter."
Liquid atop movie-theater popcorn.
Butter? -Oh, I thought you meant
a top movie-theater chain. I said the Regal.
[ Laughter ]
-Regal. It is a top movie-theater chain.
-It's the most premier movie chain
in all of the United States. -Last time we were on the show,
we always play "What is the most premier movie chains?"
-And I can't stop talking about the Regal.
[ Laughter ]
-All right, Maya. We got two there.
-I got Regal socks.
I told you I'm great at this game.
-No, this is good. Because two is great.
Two is -- And, again, we're partners, so this is beatable.
So now it's my turn.
We'll put another 45 seconds on the clock.
And whenever you're ready, read the misnamed song title,
and I will guess. -Okay.
Are you ready? -Yes.
-"Pleasant Shakiness."
-Nice -- nice -- -"Pleasant Shakiness."
Pleasant... -Fun?
-...Shakiness. -"Hippy Shake"?
[ Laughter ] "Rattle"?
"Shake, Rattle, Roll"? Pass.
-Shakiness or another kind of -- Do you want me to pass?
-Yeah, pass. -Okay.

Driven by Loud Guitar and Vocals."

[ Cheers and applause ]
-"Female Jelly." [ Laughter ]
[ Buzzer ]
-What? -I just wanted to talk
to you today about female jelly, that's all.
[ Laughter ] -No, no, no.
Let's talk about different movie-theater chains.
-It was "Lady Marmalade." -Ah!
Yeah, "Lady Marmalade." Okay, all right, look.
We're tied. That means we're in the zone.
-That means we're going for the death sequence.
-This is the death sequence, what they call --
We changed the name to call it the fun round.
[ Laughter ]
For this last round, we're gonna see how many songs
we can name together.
We're gonna take turns naming a song and then guessing.
I will start us off by reading the first clue.
-Okay. -Here we go.
"Ponder Barrier."
[ Laughter ]
-"Think Wall"? -Something --
-"Wonderwall." -Yes, that's right! Correct.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-"You Are the Only Thing on my Holiday Wish List."
-"All I Want for Christmas Is You."
[ Ding! ] -Yes!
-"Slap Bass Above 59th Street."
-Slap -- Funk. Funk?
-What kind of funk? Where's above 59th street?
-"Uptown Funk"! -That's right!
