Stephen has always loved this song. Jack Johnson said in an interview that Stephen told him that he listened to it every night when he went to Iraq to do shows for the troops. Love both of them.
Ashmita Nandy i live off their hate, and i especially get the feel goods when they say they love the taste of our liberal tears and i fill them in.... Those are not tears baby thats liberal jizz and they LOVE IT!!! even said so, ba ha
Look here for his version of (with) Elvis Costello's Cheap Reward... I hate to say it but I like that version best, not the least beacuse his accent majes for a more natural flow... Soundd so natural, authentic. I think you might enjoy it.
@@jacquelineleubin5004 I believe MadDog is delusional and talking about himself in the third person. Besides we all know Conservatives don't laugh because they have no sense of humour. Or no sense at all, really.
You can tell when someone really loves music. I believe Colbert is a true lover of music. Bravo Jack and Stephen. Only good people could have done what I just saw in this video.
Every Jack Johnson song has a 'first' and 'second' moment you really notice it. First you love it for how chill and soothing it is, you've had a bad day, you're stressed out, and that new Jack Johnson song comes on the radio on your drive home when you're at you're wit's end, and it's just this peace you get with his music. Second, though, is when you actually start listening to the lyrics, and realize he's a lyrical mastermind who's layered deep political pathos and progressive introspection into what you thought was just that chill song you play at the beach with your friends. It's a fantastic melding of two disparate worlds, and I don't know if anyone else could really make it work so seamlessly.
Lets get this to be the #1 video from Colbert. It deserves it. Share, Like, Share.... SHARE. Stephen is criminally underrated as an artist, and as a singer. He is humble to a point where it's insulting to himself. Lets' send the love. I come back to this often. For a smile, for a cry, but more importantly to see a man who is so connected to himself that it reaches through the screen and hits me. So much love. Vancouver, BC, Canada.
I have no words... their voices were so beautiful together and this really is such a good song. No wonder Colbert likes it so much. These are two very good men, mind and soul.
*Jack Johnson, Sufjan Stevens, Joni Mitchell and Janelle Monae are my all time faves!* They live their lives quietly and just keep makin good indie music year after year!
For the longest time fighting for Jack Johnson to be seen as an A list singer! Seen him in concert at The Gorge and in his hometown of Honolulu! Such a wonderful guy and been jamming to his music since 2008! Thank you Colbert for bringing his name to the mainstage!!!!!
I had the good fortune to see Jack Johnson live in the summer time a little while back and he invited all his opening acts one at a time to come and do a performance with him...truly a class act
Can Stephen Colbert get some recognition for his impeccable ability to choose music that hits the nail directly on the head, timing wise and as far as sending a powerful message that conveys more emotion and feeling than any monologue could convey at a time like this.
vanya chairunissa Terimakasih banyak untuk tanggapan Anda, dear Vania! Aku anggap siaran TV AS, terutama yang menyangkut Stephen Colbert, bagus sekali mutunya! Salam dari Tami di Bogor!
Wow they both rocked. And Steve...... U r unbelievable. I was pretty depressed on hearing the news about the demise of Stephen Hawking, but this song cheered me up and made my day.
I had no idea...😯 Damn Stephen...super intelligent, insanely funny, beautiful singer, down to earth...i mean, what an all around awesomely decent guy. And that list, by no means stops there...its just, you see, the way my med schedule is set up they tell me its best for those around me and anyone I may come in contact with that I not go off of them, so have to cut this short. But when they said that I was like 🙋🏾♂️...y'all know I'm in the same room as you are right 🤷🏾♂️? But it's cool, no one got stabbed that day. Keep doing ya thang! ✊🏾❤🖤💚✊🏾
Absolutely fantastic performance. Colbert's got a decently surprising good voice as well! All the feel good feels from this song today, you both have made my day!
how has this onky been seen 275k times... an under rated song, and one if my favorite jj songs of all time. the lyrics are genius, music is brilliant..

Woah, when did Stephen go to Iraq?
@@Alex-jg2bc Look it up....he had his head shaved on the show in preparation....
Genuinely one of the *good people* . Just quietly living his life and making good music.
Ashmita Nandy haha good people i see what you did there
Ashmita Nandy you’re mom gay
WOW why the hate?
lkreusling Internet 101: Ignore the trolls. 😂

Those are not tears baby thats liberal jizz and they LOVE IT!!! even said so, ba ha
Stephen’s voice is heavenly. And jack Johnson is ultimately one of the best artists out there. Can’t believe this duet actually happened. Perfection.
Lol!!! My gosh… what a joke
That low country SC accent peaks through when he’s singing! Love it!
Look here for his version of (with) Elvis Costello's Cheap Reward... I hate to say it but I like that version best, not the least beacuse his accent majes for a more natural flow... Soundd so natural, authentic. I think you might enjoy it.
Stephen is one of the coolest men on the planet. Hands down.
He is also a big DMB fan as well, he’s got amazing taste in music!
Yesssss
Is there anything Colbert can't do? Give this man a record deal
he has a grammy already bro
He can’t recognize a great President or make a Conservative laugh but this was awesome to watch him sing a favorite song of mine.
@@MadDogHoek23 What great president?!?!LMFAO!!
Jacqueline Leubin Obama. Jk lmfao

Don't you just love it when your favorite people love the same music? *bliss*
Mel F - YES Absolutely! makes the world a little smaller
I love Jack Johnson! I love Stephen Colbert! I LOVE THIS SONG AND MY DAY HAS MADE BETTER!!!!!
You can tell when someone really loves music. I believe Colbert is a true lover of music. Bravo Jack and Stephen. Only good people could have done what I just saw in this video.
I guess he wasn't kidding, he definitely knew all the words to that song and nailed it
it was earlier in the show when he's saying who the guests are for tonight. wasn't in this clip

Amazing. Just when I thought I couldn't adore Colbert anymore.
Will Parker Same here!
Jack needs to perform this while everything is going on across the country.
Thomas Nutsongtat wise👍👍👍
Jack Johnson and Colbert. I died and went to heaven ❤
That harmony
Don't let the beauty of the performance distract you from the lyrics. They're forever relevant.
Listening to this simply made my heart happy. ♡
Ritapita73 me too

Jack Johnson is one of my favorite singers and no fuss people of all times 🌍
Mr. Colbert is a ridiculously talented man.
"We went beyond where we should have gone"
😢😭😭😭😭😭😔
Every time I hear Jack Johnson I imagen sitting right next to him after a long day of surfing next a beautiful bonfire on a beach.
What a duet!
I have no words... their voices were so beautiful together and this really is such a good song. No wonder Colbert likes it so much. These are two very good men, mind and soul.
This makes me so happy. Jack is such a genuine guy to have steven sing with him. Such a great performance
I can see why Colbert likes this guy. Powerful lyrics.
Jack's voice is so smooth and Stephen's is so sweet. Lovely.
Stephen, you don't just have a good voice, you are a gifted singer as well. Great duet BTW.
I absolutely love seeing Stephen singing with Jack. You know it was a life moment and it’s so special to share that.
I've watched this 40 times. Cry every single time. Love you Stephen from Canada.
S.Colbert will go down as one of the greatest entertainers of our generation. Singing, theatre, comedy, drama and poitical wit!
This aged poorly
@@johnboman2242absolutely did not.
Stephen has such a calming voice when he sings. Jack has such calming songs. They should do more duets.
*Jack Johnson, Sufjan Stevens, Joni Mitchell and Janelle Monae are my all time faves!*
They live their lives quietly and just keep makin good indie music year after year!
YES! Can't agree more. In a terribly dark world, their music forms a crack in the wall letting the light in, like Leonard Cohen said.
Dont forget Dallas Green and his brilliance.
Not in a million years would have I thought about a jack Johnson and Colbert duet! That too, this song! Wow!
Beautiful Time offered by both Artists!! Real!!!
Why did this make me emotional? I love Jack Johnson
For the longest time fighting for Jack Johnson to be seen as an A list singer! Seen him in concert at The Gorge and in his hometown of Honolulu! Such a wonderful guy and been jamming to his music since 2008! Thank you Colbert for bringing his name to the mainstage!!!!!
This is really beautiful.
WOW, Stephen can really sing!!! They sound terrific together.
The more I learn about Stephen Colbert the more I like him...
Been a fan of Jack Johnson since 2008 and of Stephen Colbert since 2014. Seeing them together singing this song is priceless!!
I had the good fortune to see Jack Johnson live in the summer time a little while back and he invited all his opening acts one at a time to come and do a performance with him...truly a class act
I love Jack Johnson and this duet with Stephen Colbert!! ☺
If Stephen sings in the music segment every show... I’m going start watching it.
I f..ing..love Stephen💕💕💕
Excellent job, guys!
Can Stephen Colbert get some recognition for his impeccable ability to choose music that hits the nail directly on the head, timing wise and as far as sending a powerful message that conveys more emotion and feeling than any monologue could convey at a time like this.

So wonderful! This is what we are! Humanity!
Love Colbert singing!!! He's very versatile and a real guy!
Wow this is great... two of my hero’s right here. Didn’t even know Steven could actually sing
This made me choke up in the way you do when you see someone getting to do something that means a lot to them. Wtg SC.
OH MY!!! SO WONDERFUL !!! 😍😍😍
"Cool!", said John Oliver...
And Conan didn't say anything but he gave a nod of approval
Jimmy Fallon just had a seizure
Kimmel just cried.
Letterman died happily with a smile on his face
Stephen is my favourite person in the world!
Stephen C with the vocal skills!!
Wow Stephen. Sounds good my friend. 💘 SC.

Would probably cry if i got to sing with Jack :)))
Well done Stephen!!
Damn, look at you Stephen. You sing very well. Just love it.
Two people I love very much! Thank you.
They harmonised so beautifully. I would happily listen to Stephen sing everyday..
Absolutely Amazing. I smiled the whole time.
Sleep Through The Static is my favorite JJ album.

Beautiful song! I love Jack Johnson, but this duet is lit!
Very Touching, I loved it.
This is such a powerful song. Thank you for this. ♡
Never been a huge Jack Johnson guy, but this is fantastic. Might have to give his stuff another listen.
