Love EC and Colbert, but Colbert sounds like a 12 yr old girl.

Wow. Stevie is far more than just a pretty face. Wonderful singing voice and a very fine actor. Forget which show, perhaps L&O, saw him act in an episode and he was excellent. How delightful. Thanks Stephen and Elvis, just beautiful..

Steven has a surprisingly good singing voice and, of course, Costelo is a classic. A nice, very nostalgic moment -- I haven't heard that one in years. Good performance, guys!

You are so right, I don't know why Elvis didn't phone you to ask if this would be too uncool for you.

I'm sure he'll call you next time to find out when, where, what and with whom he should sing in the future.

It's obvious from watching his show that Stephen loves music and really enjoys bringing on musical guests and occasionally sitting in. What a great perk for him. The harmony is excellent but I was pretty surprised by the song selection. Just a tad bit dated and run of the mill pop.

They had to harmonize. I think they chose this Everly brothers song because they were probably familiar enough with it to be able to each take a part without worrying about messing it up--or not having enough time to practice (I imagine doing this as it is took quite a lot of practice already).

Personally, I loved it.
