Jimmy Fallon is known for his impersonations and musical savvy, but last night he took it to a whole new level when he performed "Hotline Bling" as Bob Dylan. The Tonight Show host channeled the legend's unmistakable voice as he sang lyrics like "you used to call me on my cell phone" before breaking out in a harmonica solo. In case you still weren't convinced, the performance was even shot on a hand-held camera with a grainy lens to fully take it back to the '60s.

“Our performance tonight was LIVE. For real — this was live. Hope you like it,” Fallon revealed on Twitter. Of course, this wasn't the first time he has attempted Drake's track, but it's already the most memorable. Watch the full performance above and get a behind-the-scenes look of Jimmy Fallon preparing for the performance in full costume below.
