Morissette sported a blonde wig and faux fur vest, and Fallon had a long scuzzy beard and woolly cap for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. A sparse crowd slowly started to assemble. But by the reveal, the musicians were besieged by a shocked and selfie-taking crowd of delighted  onlookers.

The disguised subway buskers routine is becoming a regular feature on the “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” set up at the stop under 50 Rock, where the show is filmed.

Last November, Fallon and Adam Levine and Maroon 5 went undercover with their plastic buckets and acoustic instruments and tambourine and played “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” and “Sugar.”
