On a day when America looked up to the heavens, late night television kept our eyes glued to the screens for a wholeheartedly implementation.
On Monday, April 8, Rock Hall band Heart teamed up with Jimmy Fallon for a rendition of Bonnie Tyler's '80s hit “Total Eclipse of the Heart,” a fun, heartfelt tribute to the eclipse that captured the attention of millions across North America.

The musical performance was captured from the rooftop at 30 Rockefeller Center as the Moon passed between Earth and the Sun and briefly blotted out our star.
Fallon, flanked by the Wilson sisters, wore matching shades and a throwback public school uniform from Russell Mulcahy's official music video for “Total Eclipse of the Heart,” which originally topped the Billboard Hot 100 for four weeks in 1983 .
The late night host teased the spot and shared a behind-the-scenes photo Monday afternoon, ahead of the rare moment.
At 4 minutes and 28 seconds, the total eclipse was longer than the one that captured the eyes of Americans in 2017, which lasted 2 minutes and 42 seconds.
On that occasion, New Yorkers saw a peak partial solar eclipse at 3:25 p.m., according to NASA.
Fallon is celebrating his own special moment, marking 10 years as host of his own late-night show. To celebrate, NBC will air one two-hour primetime anniversary special on Tuesday, May 14.
