After that, Kimmel’s wife Molly wanted to know which Rodrigo song the Kimmels like. Billy said “Get Him Back!”—the third single from the album Guts—so clearly the Kimmels are listening to Guts continually. Rodrigo and Jane joined in on the family’s enthusiastic singing of “Ballad of a Homeschooled Girl” like long-lost friends. When Rodrigo scorched the stage with “Ballad of a Homeschooled Girl” last year, it was clear that Kimmel loved her.
The family then performed “Get Him Back!”, young Billy’s favourite song, during his turn. Jane appeared to be the true musical prodigy in the family, as she flawlessly matched Rodrigo’s vocal melodies on the song, even though Billy delivered the lyrics.
When Rodrigo published her second album, Guts, in September 2023, the family wasn’t the only ones who loved it. With 404,000 copies sold, the album topped the charts in the United States and nearly every other country in North America and Europe.
