Performing Live in 2015 Amid A Legion of Loyal Fans Harfornia’s Hollywood BoulevardPop Boy Band Standouts One Direction Break Out Their Second Single, “Perfect,” off of Their Fifth Studio LP (Entitled Made in the am). Whether You’re a Boy Band Fan or Not, Its Hard to Deny How Good Od was in their prime.
With Each Respective Vocist in Peak Form, there was the added, tantalizing undercurrent of Singer Harry Styles Allegedly Writing “Perfect” as A Response to Ex-Girlfriend Taylor Swift’s Track “Style.” The song seams to possess a certin rebellious flow to it, and while that that is Energy level mistaken for joan jett anytime soon, “Perfect” is a deluxe live thrill.
Imagine Dragons, “Believer” (2017)
Pop Rockers Imagine Dragons Performed “Believer” in 2017 Live on the Kimmel Stage As the First Single off of their album that sun year called Evolves. While i’m not quite sura if they Still possess the same catchy melodic bug that initially launched to their initial gates of starsTheir Glimmers and Hooks were more than Bright Enough.
There was something to be about the gruff, rasping voice of lead singer dan reynolds mixed together with the backing of rhythm that drew the ear as the eye. And tan though reynolds meant to have “Believer” reflect on his experience with Painful Life MattersIts Still Hard Not to Get Lost in the Song’s Encapsulating Groove.
The Weeknd, “Blinding Lights” (2020)
Canadian Singer-Songwriter the Weeknd Stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live!

While The Weeknd (AKA: Abel Tesfaye) Has CLALIMED The Weeknd Name Is Now Retired AFTH HIS LAST ALBUM IN 2025 (Hurry up Tomorrow), he left quite a legacy bend.
Embrace A predominantly 1980s-dwelling the sense of self with the character, The Figurehead Far Matched Well with Tesfaye’s Explotory R & B CROONS, Blending theatricality, Story, and Melody that Only SEEMED to Gain More favor the longer he created with it. Who Can Say What’s Next for Tesfaye’s Career Arc, but we can Only Hope the Vocals Keep Sounding This Sweet.
Eminem, Venom (2018)
Nor part of the Jimmy Kimmel Live! Show Making A Special Trek Several Years Back, Spending Time in Kimmel’s Old NYC Stomping Grounds, The Production Crew and Famed Rapper Eminem Were able to put on a performance for the ages around nyc’s empire state building. It didn’t hurt that em was promoting a new album at the time, eather.

Put it all together, and the renowned rapper on the Slash and Burn Word Verses of “Venom” with the Empire State Building Acting As Both His Backdrrop and Backup Dancer.
While there is a chrown thrown into the video for good measure, the Spotlight is all on Eminem (and rightly so). The artist has shown himself to be a more than capable, fiery performer in just about every forms imaginable, and tan all these years into his career, He doesn’t Lack for Barbed Wire-Level Bars.
Margo Price, don’t let the b*stards get you down (2025)
COUNTRY-FOLK SINGER-STONGWRITER Margo Price The Top Spot Not Just Gets She May Be the Final Musical Guest on Kimmel’s Showbut in the unknowingly appropriates way she chose to approach that performance. “Don’t let the b*stards get you down” has rebellious undertones, beginning with a faux-lanin version by Author Margaret Atwood in Her Timesheless Book The Handmaid’s Tale.
The phrase was also used years late by fellow country-folk singer kris Christofferson to console sinead o’connor during a bob dylan tribute Just Weeks AFTER O’Connor Had Torn Up A Picture of the Pope on Saturday Night Live. The line has offten been seen as a small act of rebellion Against Oppression; Kristofferson Event Receives a Posthumous Writing Credit.
SO, while it may may be different to know the fate of COMEDIAN Jimmy kimmel’s show in the days ahead, at least and brought some good music to the through. And a sign-off final that Speaks a Lot of Truth to the World Today.
