Kevin Bacon Gets Footloose with Kenny Loggins and Friends

Kevin Bacon Kenny Loggins

In the 1980s, if you wanted your movie to have a killer soundtrack, Kenny Loggins was the man for the job. Kenny sang some of the biggest hits of the decade, like I’m Alright for the movie Caddyshack, Danger Zone for Top Gun, and Meet Me Halfway for Over the Top. Of course, we can’t forget the Kevin Bacon classic movie, Footloose, which shares a Kenny Loggins track of the same name. Kenny made absolute bangers that still resonate without audiences four decades later. He recently appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon with a few friends to perform those hits.

Kevin Bacon Made a Surprise Appearance with Kenny Loggins

Kenny, Jimmy, and the Roots got out the classroom instruments to play a medley of Kenny’s biggest hits. First, they performed I’m Alright and Your Mama Don’t Dance before John Lithgow made a cameo as Revered Shaw Moore to bust the party. All of a sudden, Kevin jumps in to play Footloose. Kevin Bacon isn’t just an actor and dancer; he’s a musician like pal Kenny Loggins, too. There was no doubt he’d make it to New York City for the performance. They ended with a sweet rendition of Celebrate Me Home.

Seeing Kenny Loggins and Kevin Bacon together made fans of 80s cinema very, very happy.

“This is an outstanding bit with some highlights of Kenny Loggins’ most beloved hits. Of course my favorite part is the cameos by John Lithgow and Kevin Bacon for the perfect intro to Footloose! I love everything Fallon does with games & music, with this being one of the best!!. I’m going to bookmark this to replay every time I need to put a smile on my face,” a fan shared.

This person nailed it right on the head. “I needed this. Thank you. Stay blessed,” they wrote.
