What better way to spread holiday cheer<\/a>, right?<\/p>\n

On Wednesday’s episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon<\/em>, Alanis Morissette <\/a><\/strong>and Jimmy Fallon<\/a><\/strong> went “Subway Busking”<\/a> and treated lucky New York City commuters with some Christmas carols\u2014and you \u2018oughta<\/em> bet it was amazing. Dressed undercover in outrageous wigs, sunglasses and hats, the duo set up shop in the 50th Street subway stop and performed for some unsuspecting fans. <\/p>\n

To kick things off, Alanis and Jimmy with a stripped-down version of “The Little Drummer Boy.” To really disguise his voice, the late night host sang with a deep Southern drawl. At first, the commuters were fazed by their performance but they quickly formed a crowd once they realized they were witnessing a live performance by the “Jagged Little Pill” singer<\/a> and the Saturday Night Live<\/em> alum.<\/p>\n

After taking off their disguises, Alanis rocked out to her hit song “You Oughta Know,” turning their little subway performance into a full-on rock concert<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Jimmy, of course, took the role as hype man and got the crowd jumping and clapping their hands. Soon, people were racing over to the duo to join in on the fun.<\/p>\n

Fans couldn’t help but sing along to the song’s iconic chorus<\/a> as Alanis belted, “I’m here, to remind you \/ of the mess you left, when you went away \/ it’s not fair, to deny me \/ of the cross I bear that you gave to me \/ you, you, you \u2018oughta know.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Once back in the Tonight Show<\/a><\/em> studio, Alanis complimented Jimmy on his hype man skills. “You’re a great hype person, by the way,” she said. “You should come on tour with me. Like, \u2018You Oughta Know’ on tambourine.”<\/p>\n

Switching gears, the “Ironic” singer dished about her upcoming Broadway musical Jagged Little Pill<\/em>, which is inspired by her Grammy-winning rock album of the same name.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“It’s not a direct autobiographical story,” Alanis explained. “It’s a story about a family. But, [writer] Diablo Cody<\/strong> said she pulled all the characters out of the songs. So, in some ways, I relate to a lot of the characters. In a direct way.”<\/p>\n
