Colbert


Stephen Colbert stopped by "Good Morning America" Monday to start promoting his Christmas special, "A Colbert Christmas: The Greatest Gift of All." The special airs this Sunday November 23 on Comedy Central and is available on DVD the 25th.

On GMA, Diane Sawyer played clips of the special, including one clip with Jon Stewart singing. The video also features a yule log of burning books and some festive Colbert dance moves.

In a second segment, which starts 2 minutes into the below clip, Colbert and Sawyer sing "Deck the Halls" together, forgetting words, and fellow show guest David Cook jumps in.

There is hardly anything I loath more than the ever expanding Christmas season. Singing carols on November 17 is just ridiculous.

Sawyer is tone deaf.

Unfortunately, so is David Cook, apparently. What key is he in?!.......

She was trying to harmonize, which is very hard to do on the fly like that. He specifically told her, "don't blend with the other person". I think she did a pretty good job, all things considered.

Is he ever out of character? I'd love to see him just be him.

I think he is a character.

He has been interviewed by Charlie Rose out of character earlier this year, I think. You could find the interview split into a few segments on youtube.

Bless anyone who tries to sing. There's not enough of trying to sing. Pull those plastic bits out of your ear and try to f**king sing. It will be real, human music.

Those plastic bits are just in ear monitors.. don't hate on monitors, they're better than the on stage speakers because they can't feedback... if you can't hear you can't sing.
But believe me i agree that too many people are straight up fakin it these days

One of the problems is this.

And worse of all. . . . . it's only the tip of the iceberg.

I'd suggest everyone do a search on Christian-Newsom, if you can stand to read it.

It would be worth your while, and give you a true perspective.

What does this have to do with the content contained in this page? Go preach to a choir in an article that applies to what you are saying. This is meant to ne lighthearted holiday comedy, not religious persecution.

Way to be a downer, man.

Colbert and Stewart: the Titans of genuine opinion news.

I trust them a lot more than I do regular talking heads in other media markets, least of all Fox News.

I have a crush on Jon Stewart. Okay. There. I said it. Colbert cracks me up. Hope he and Diane don't give up their day-jobs for singing careers. :)

Stephen sings beautifully (re: duets w/ Tony Bennett, John Legend and Barry Manilow on his show). He was just goofing around with Diane Sawyer since she's nearly tone deaf.

I thought she was trying to harmonize and failing miiserably.... you mean she was actually trying to sing the melody??

yikes!

I love all these guys! It may be early, but what the heck! Merry Christmas, or happy whatever you call the holiday. May it be a season of good will and cheer for EVERYONE!

Oh course Jon Stewart can sing! Love that Colbert, though. You shoulda seen his singing with Crosby, Stills & Nash.
