NBA’s Stephen Curry Nails Frozen & Moana Songs In Carpool Karaoke With ‘Life Coach’ James Corden
“The best lesson I’ve learned from James Corden is how to waste a perfectly good afternoon,” Curry said.
'Long as I can remember, never really knowing why
I wish I could be the perfect daughter
But I come back to the water, no matter how hard I try
Every turn I take, every trail I track
Every path I make, every road leads back
To the place I know, where I cannot go
Where I long to be
See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know, if I go there's just no telling how far I'll go
Oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh
I know, everybody on this island seems so happy on this island
Everything is by design
I know, everybody on this island has a role on this island
So maybe I can roll with mine
I can lead with pride, I can make us strong
I'll be satisfied if I play along
But the voice inside sings a different song
What is wrong with me?
See the light as it shines on the sea? It's blinding
But no one knows, how deep it goes
And it seems like it's calling out to me, so come find me
And let me know, what's beyond that line, will I cross that line?
See the line where the sky meets the sea? It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know, how far I'll go
James Corden hooked up with Stephen Curry, NBA superstar, to belt out some of the biggest hit songs from Frozen and Moana.
“I’ve come down to the Bay area to spend some time with arguably the greatest shooter in NBA history, Stephen Curry,” said Corden. “What he doesn’t know is that I’m going to make him great in every other aspect of his life.”
Did Stephen manage to pick up anything from James during their time together? “The best lesson I’ve learned from James Corden is how to waste a perfectly good afternoon,” he said.
Before singing Frozen and Moana tracks, Curry proved how, basketball aside, he’s actually great at all games. Miniature gold? He won. That dance game you get in all arcades? His footwork was a delight. Air hockey? He should turn pro.
But – and this is the big question – can Stephen Curry hold a tune? Always one to test himself, Stephen proposed the pair have a little singsong.
“Since we’re in the car, I thought we were going to be doing Carpool Karaoke…that’s what I’ve been dreaming about,” Stephen said.
“Look, everyone thinks that they can Carpool karaoke,” Corden replied. “Everyone thinks they’ve got what it takes. [Stephen's] got to show me, he’s got to earn the right to do it….I made Adele audition for weeks."
"What sort of songs do you listen to in the car?” Corden asked.
“I listen to everything a four-and-a-half-year-old listens to. A lot of Disney. A lot of Moana."
The pair then belted out Moana's 'How Far I'll Go', followed by 'Love is an Open Door' from Frozen, and, you know what, Stephen Curry could have been a lot worse.
In other news, Ed Sheeran and James Corden were recently spotted filming a new episode of Carpool Karaoke. See more here.
Meanwhile, a trailer for Apple Music’s Carpool Karaoke TV series, featuring Corden, John Legend, Pharrell and more, was released. Watch that here.

James Corden’s Carpool Karaoke Is Fifteen Months Old! Here Are Its Top 10 Moments So Far
-
Click on through for the BEST Carpool Karaoke (from James Corden’s Late Late Show, obvs) moments so far, featuring Adele, Justin Bieber and Stevie Wonder. Enjoy! -
1. First up is when James Corden bricked it on the roller coaster with Selena Gomez. Gomez seemed pretty chill, but as the ride hurtled downwards, Corden screamed “OH MY GOD!”[YouTube] -
2. If wrestling the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ frontman Anthony Kiedis on a randomer’s front lawn wasn’t enough – only a couple of minutes later the majority of the car was topless and belting out ‘The Zephyr Song’.[YouTube] -
3. Next up is when Corden formed a band with Nick Jonas and Demi Lovato. Where did they play their first gig? On the street of course. Where else would have them? ;)[YouTube] -
4. Remember that time when George Clooney and Julia Roberts joined Corden and Gwen Stefani to sing ‘Hollaback Girl’? Yeah, Clooney *nailed* it. More videos of George Clooney singing please.[YouTube] -
5. If you had a singing voice like Jennifer Hudson, you’d sing all the time, wouldn’t you? Turns out the actual Jennifer Hudson does just that, even ordering at the drive-thru via the medium of song: “YAAAS! I’d like a cheeeeeseburgerrr”.[YouTube] -
6. When Skrillex and Diplo released the MASSIVE ‘Where Are Ü Now’, featuring Justin Bieber, even non-Beliebers lost it. So it was only appropriate that Corden lost his s**t with the actual Justin Bieber to that very same song.[YouTube] -
7. Stevie Wonder is an incredible artist. Everyone knows this. But not only is he very funny, he’s also kinda sweet, making Corden tear up when he called up James’ wife (a huge Stevie Wonder fan) to tell her that James loved her.[YouTube] -
8. One Direction’s ‘No Control’ always needed the proper video treatment. So THANK THE LORD that Corden decided to choregraph a dance a routine for One Direction’s ‘No Control’ with One Direction. Oh, and check that DENIM.[YouTube] -
9. When Adele rapped Minaj’s verse from Kanye’s ‘Monster’ and she SMASHED it. Is this the best moment on Carpool Karaoke yet? Probably. Adele is an incredible human being, and pretty much everything that comes out of her mouth is gold. Long live Adele.[YouTube] -
10. When you’ve been on a lonnnggg road trip to San Francisco, there’s probably no better way to finish the day off than having a lil’ spoon with Chris Martin in bed. Right? We’re right. We know we’re right.[YouTube]
