Jack Black and Jimmy Fallon reimagine Extreme’s power ballad ‘More Than Words’

If you had a pulse in the ’90s, you heard Extreme’s 1990 power ballad “More Than Words.” You likely also saw the video, which aired on MTV roughly once an hour. 

Countless awkward middle-school slow dances happened to that song, and now Jimmy Fallon and Jack Black have recreated your memories shot-for-shot, right down to guitarist Nuno Bettencourt’s nail polish. 

Of course, Black adds a bit more energy and physical comedy to this new version. 

Here’s the original, for scale:
