We've been enjoying what the world's come up with so far for Nintendo Labo and last night on The Tonight Show it went a step further. Sure, we've seen drinking games and amazing covers, but this is another level of awesome.

Using both Labo's Variety Kit and Robot Kit, Jimmy Fallon, The Roots, and Ariana Grande came together to perform 'No Tears Left to Cry', Ariana's new single. On paper it sounds pretty standard - I rather enjoy the classroom instrument covers - but when watching the video in full, you can see how creative the Labo can be.

Complete with three Labo guitars (which you can learn how to make here), one Labo drum kit, two lots of Labo pianos, and some cool uses of the Variety Kit's fishing rod and Robot Kit, the above video was made.

Whether you're a fan of the show, or Ariana's music, or not, this is a mixture of creativity, serious talent, and it's perfectly showed off the Labo's capabilities.
