Steve Carell and Jimmy Fallon singing "Sexual Healing" a cappella in a barbershop quartet? Sounds like The Ragtime Gals — Fallon's barbershop quartet singing troupe — have been trawling through our dreams again! The Golden Globe-nominated Foxcatcher star was a surprise guest on The Tonight Show last night, joining forces with the host to deliver an amazing rendition of Marvin Gaye's classic 1982 soul single.

Carell appeared almost from out of nowhere to join The Ragtime Gals — who have previously tackled a cappella versions of Justin Timberlake's "SexyBack" and R. Kelly's "Ignition" — as they gave their distinct twist to amazing lines like, "I can't hold it that much longer / it's getting stronger and stronger / Inside of me / And when I get this feeling / I want sexual healing."

The "Get up / Get up / Let's make love tonight" lines, along with Fallon's finger-mouth pop and their extended outro are particularly hilarious highlights.

As ew.com pointed out, it was a performance that's "sure to make the world a happier place."

Carell was nominated today, Dec. 11, for a Golden Globe thanks to his part in Moneyball director Bennett Miller's stunning new film Foxcatcher. The movie, a critical hit, scored three nominations, including Best Drama, Best Actor in a Drama (Carell as John du Pont) and Best Supporting Actor (Mark Ruffalo as Dave Schultz). Carrell and Ruffalo also scored Screen Actors Guild award nominations this week.

The film tackles the 1996 shooting of Dave Schultz, and Carell told USA Today that his role as du Pont was "a challenge and a little scary at the same time."

"But," he says, "I tend to think that things that scare you are probably the types of things you should try to do. I think you learn more from those experiences. And you take greater risks trying stuff like that."
