Anyway you spin it, despite how you may or may not feel about the man (yes man), Justin Beiber is a fantastic entertainer. Never is this more true when he
-
decided to buckle up for safety with Mr. Corden.
-
-
Rod Stewart is an absolute legend. He's been crushing hits and soccer balls since the 60's, and does no less during his showcase on Carpool Karoake. Adding to that
-
was when A$AP Rocky jumped in the backseat and started crooning along. Music can cross generations and genres and these nine minutes show it.
-
-
Jason Derulo sometimes gets accused of rocking that auto tune just a bit too hard (Kanye Syndrome?) but he shows off his pipes on this great edition of CK. Just when it
-
can't get any better it does as Jason gets James out of the car and teaches him - and us - how to dance with the best of them.

Britney Spears has had lots of ups and down in her career, and certainly suffered at the hands of 24 hour news "journalism" like TMZ and the supermarket checkout line court
-
of public opinion. However in recent years she's seemed to finally find a comfortable groove as a great performer and a solid mother while still having her voice holding it all
-
down.
Plus James Corden in a wig makes this just great.
-
-
Gwen Stefani has been crushing it at life every since she untangled herself from those Spiderwebs in the 90's. She really shows her range here and you're just watching Corden
-
try to keep up, which is unusual for him. This CK would have been enough, but then George Clooney and Julia Roberts jump in the car and all of a
-
sudden we're watching the most famous people in a car since The Beatles were in a magical mystery tour.
-
-
This is the quintessential "short but sweet" CK. Mariah jumps in and reminds us all that we need to go back to her catalogue on Spotify.
-
-
Adele in the #3 spot?! I mean you got to wonder who is in front of her. Adele has been writing music that relates to anyone who has ever not just
-
married and lived happily ever after with their high school sweetheart. As such she's made a lot of money and made a lot of recent ex's get teary-eyed in their
-
car.
Not so much in this episode, where she's more about singing Spice Girls and killing it at some Nicky Minaj hot barz.
-
-
You just gotta put this one near the top of the list. In this year of political election contention, it was a nice reprieve this summer when Michelle Obama jumped
-
in shotgun and crooned out some melodies. If nothing else, we should all marvel at how cool the White House has been and how it probably will never be this
-
culturally inclined ever again.

-
This episode Broadway brought out some of their biggest guns to show you that they're the kings of emotional presence in music. This episode will make you want to drive
-
a plane to NYC, get dressed up in a tux, and watch Les Miserables. Speaking plainly, this crew KILLS it and earns the #1 spot.
James Corden has hit the Late Night scene in a big way, especially with the advent of his flagship series "Carpool Karaoke". He's gotten some of the biggest names in music, film and politics to loosen up and show off their pipes in this impromptu format. Though every video has it's own charm and easily stands alone as great entertainment, we took it upon ourselves to watch each with a careful eye and rank the best.
