The Rolling Stones are going back to black, but not blue. The band’s new album Foreign Tongues will feature a cover of Amy Winehouse‘s “You Know I’m No Good,” the cheeky cut from her classic 2006 album Back to Black.

Jimmy Fallon was the one to share the news during Ronnie Wood’s appearance on The Tonight Show. “You do a cover of Amy Winehouse, which I don’t know if anyone knows,” the host said as he read through the track list. The pair then broke into a great a capella version of the song, clapping and dancing along as they conjured the jazzy rhythm.

“It’s a phenomenal album,” Fallon said of Foreign Tongues. Earlier in the conversation, the host revealed that he and Wood ran into each other recently while on vacation. During the chance encounter, the guitarist played Fallon the Stones’ new album. “There’s so many fun little guest stars as well,” Fallon added, noting Paul McCartney and Steve Winwood as featured artists.

Earlier this week, the Rolling Stones announced their 25th studio album and shared new single “In the Stars.” The LP follows up 2023’s celebrated Hackney Diamonds. That album was a Number Three hit in the U.S. and won the band a Grammy for Best Rock Album. The group, whose current lineup includes Mick Jagger and Keith Richards alongside Wood, introduced the project with a Q&A event in New York, led by Conan O’Brien.

At the event, the Rolling Stones revealed yet another, more surprising guest appearance on Foreign Tongues: Robert Smith. The Cure frontman was in the same London studio as the legendary rockers when Jagger ran into him. “I said, ‘I’ve never met you before, but you’re Robert Smith of the Cure.’ He said, ‘Yeah!’ I said, ‘While you’re here, we better go and do something.’ He sings a backing vocal.”
