Claire Danes Prince & The Revolutions's "♥ Or $ (Extended Version)" REASON: Since she's in DRY POWDER, change the lyric to: "we could play for days if she gets dry, POWDER, gimme that mayonnaise"
Sullivan Stapleton Heavy D. & The Boyz's "You Can't See What I Can't See. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5uqPUZxZHg REASON: Being in BLINDSPOT, it is about not being able to see.

>I'm calling bullshit on this one because Neil Young is on the >No! list. (And it was the first song I wanted to suggested.)
Springsteen I know for sure. I think there was an MJ one too. I usually just suggest it, noting that it's on the No list, just in case it can get pulled out.

Since "she is the founder of ping pong social club SPiN" and you guys had already played Dead Or Alive's "You Spin Me Round" a few weeks ago, I'll go for this.
ALTERNATE CHOICE: Plastic Bertrand's "Ping Pong" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJAVB6o_Fz4 REASON: Most people only know him for "Ça Plane Pour Moi" so go for one most people don't know.
John Cena Betty Wright's "Brick Grits" https://youtu.be/rwv3gvdnGlU?t=49s REASON: AMERICAN GRIT is his latest project, so have him walk out with this semi-unknown track from Miss Wright, which she released in 1977.

James Spader Neko Case's "Blacklisted" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMgkop02h7s REASON: He's in BLACKLISTED and it's a white enough song for the white audience of the Fallon show.
Colin Hanks El Vez's "Say It Loud (I'm Brown And I'm Proud)" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bo_IQZoPuTI REASON: Hanks is in ELVIS & NIXON and I decided to have you do a song by the Mexican Elvis "interpreter", El Vez, doing a song that combines James Brown (the funky president) and Public Enemy with this. Saying "I'm brown and I'm proud" is less about Hanks and more about you.

Taylor Lautner Cypress Hill's "Stoned Is The Way Of The Walk" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4p8-JhWMRw REASON: He is in CUCKOO so I focus on the "sippin' at the kufu, make me go cuckoo/somethin' like loco, then I turn into this new coo" line in the song.
P Diddy Hall & Oates' "Did It In A Minute" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9ihV2WnOgE REASON: He's Diddy, he's Diddy, he's Diddy, he's Diddy, he's Diddy in a minute. I'm using this version because of when Hall said "you're messing with my love life" at the 3:14 mark.

Why: You guys probably won't play this. But he's looking like he's going to be Trump's running mate, and some of the song's lyrics (even without changing the "I'm a chump" to "I'm with Trump" would still make sense):
'Well maybe it's just jealousy Mixing up with a violent mind A circumstance that doesn't make much sense Or maybe I'm just dumb, I'm a chump'

Please have you and Wendy do "Honeymoon Express". I'm sure you have preferences but I want to hear that. Anyway, my suggestions:
Aaron Paul Loggins & Messina's "Pathway To Glory" https://youtu.be/Qwy1I_B6t-Y?t=4m33s REASON: By all means in life, this is one of *my* songs. but had learned a few years ago that in Chicago, this is considered a prime song for stepping. However, I use it because Paul is in THE PATH and I'm focusing it on the part of the song that for steppers, is considered "the funky moment". For me, my head goes elsewhere and I'm thinking of people on boats, heading into the ocean and possibly not coming back. That's my Hawaiian upbringing and the album cover of Loggins & Messina in a boat off the coast of Maui, so I interpret things differently. To me, this song is the jam and it travels with me wherever I go, from the Hammond B-3 dirge to the country fiddle and Messina's guitar plucking, it's the "path" I take on when I hear this.

1) The end of "Push It Along" (the interlude is essentially 2:30 or so, which sets the mood for the rest of the album) 2) The one after "Bonita Applebum" (or before "Can I Kick It" since Jarobi talks about the forthcoming song) 3) The end of "Rhythm (Devoted to the Art of Moving Butts)" 4) The end of "Ham 'N Eggs" (which lasts a minute)
The "walk the path" part comes in the last interlude after "Ham 'N Eggs".
