Jack Black's enthusiastic renditions of songs always makes me smile.

[@coolgeekynerd37]

+Tafami He is a god when it comes to hyping up anything. Even math.

[@ponyphonic]

+coolgeekynerd37 He made me see octagons in a whole new light.

[@coolgeekynerd37]

+ponyphonic So I went and watched that. It was amazing.

[@GloomEmbraced]

+ponyphonic It's glorious and stunning.

[@carschmn]

Aerosmith front man and root vegetable is the best description of Steven Tyler I've ever heard.

[@zstevens7]

I almost lost my shit when I heard that!

[@ransib]

i kept going back to that part

[@frostythechimneysweep8594]

+carschmn Hey, even though I am a proud citizen of Sweden not even I look as much of a Swede as he does.

[@felixvelariusbos]

That was, without any sarcasm in my typing voice, the most American thing I have ever seen and heard in my entire life.

[@Gackt20211]

LOL Who else likes the fact that the backup girl and guy dancers are wearing the same thing.

[@cougarrain]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@cougarrain]

+Mr. D 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂that's a true story 😂😂

[@margaritam.9118]

My Kind of Equality :D

[@aabb3340]

I do! Hilarious. Go girls! Go guys! All beautiful people.

[@sunnylilme]

I wouldn't have noticed if you say something.

[@shamicentertainment1262]

Stephen is actually a pretty good singer

[@PeruanoPorVida49]

+Shamic Entertainment He has a Christmas album that's available on Spotify. Just throwing that out there :)

[@photondance]

+Shamic Entertainment They both are.

[@sicemic]

+PeruanoPorVida49 omg thank you!!

[@shamicentertainment1262]

Ice Min Lol thats exactly what I do

[@jerilevine7390]

+Shamic Entertainment You should have seen him in Stephen Sondheim's "Company". He is excellent.

[@alexandermillar1202]

Stephen Colbert is such a gift to the world. It's so rare that such huge expectations (taking over the late show) are met and surpassed. A surprise and a delight; there is still goodness and joy in the world

[@luckyjasonfan]

FINALLY, Men are exploited in Daisy Dukes!!

[@cougarrain]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Goooodawgs561]

Now THAT'S equality!

[@girliboi]

paired with shirts tied in kissy-girl knots.. just yes...so much yes.....aaaaaaallllll the yes

[@OrionoftheStar]

+luckyjasonfan Exploit everyone equally!

[@adrianortega1431]

You might enjoy “Girl in a Country Song”

[@69ofdoom]

I thought it was hilarious when Paul Ryan used a Rage Against the Machine song without authorization, and Tom Morrello was all like "You're the epitome of the Machine that we were Raging against."

[@tasinajalabdeenjalabdeen9522]

Hi

[@jariemonah]

I hate it when some dudes look better in Daisy Dukes than me.

[@kennethvillanueva4353]

is that style whats it called? never knew that

[@kennethvillanueva4353]

+Rav Enj is that the one with a car with a confederate flag on the roof? I see lol.

[@NhemLee]

+J. Marie lmao

[@JockoJonson17]

+J. Marie Post some pics in your Daisy Dukes and we will decide if you are right. ;)

[@PeanutsAssorted]

I honestly hope some candidate has the balls to use this. I don't care who, I want one of them to at least get in on the joke and take the chance

[@nightlightabcd]

+Lee GaryB - I'm picturing Hillery and Berny doing it right now!

[@knifeyonline]

has anybody used it yet? i'm surprised I haven't heard anything since.

[@saranghae2808]

The best Late Show with Stephen Colbert, EVERRR!!!

[@MichaelPeterson1982]

Nice touch with the male dancer's outfits

[@cougarrain]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@sixthjayhawk]

I like how they don't discriminate... skimpy country-style clothing for men and women!

[@klhkdkk2568]

Stephen is actually a great singer!

[@LuckyNumberSevens77]

I lost it when the dancers hit the stage! Hilarious! Colbert and Jack Black just parked one in the cheap seats.

[@martinaee]

So ... are all other talk show hosts just calling it quits next year or what?

[@GermanLeftist]

+martinaee Kimmel should, Colbert is seriously kicking his ass. Fallon still leads in ratings, but Colbert improved the ratings of The Late Show immensley when it comes to younger viewers compared to Letterman's numbers and between the two of them, Kimmel barely gets any viewers anymore.

[@GoldStorm07]

+martinaee Stephen is great but he'll never beat Conan.

[@851995STARGATE]

+GoldStorm07 no one watches Conan lol

[@GoldStorm07]

LOTS of people watch Conan.

[@30stmFantasy]

+Mario Quade I like Kimmel, the guy is funny, but quit watching it because I got sick of all the crappy bands he brings on his show. Oh and I don't like that he publicly talked negatively about some guests. Not cool.

[@kant12]

Colbert is just too good. It's unfair to everyone else on TV.

[@yorfx]

Now that's Gender Equality right there (The Backup Dancers), Brilliant !

[@AnIdiotsLantern]

I love how the band is just LOOSING IT while playing. None of them can keep from laughing their asses off. They work with Colbert every day. They STILL think he's funny. The Dancers are barely hanging in there too. They are busting up every time they think the camera's moved on.

[@alg9330]

+AnIdiotsLantern I'd hope that working with him everyday wouldn't make you stop thinking he's funny!!

[@alg9330]

+AnIdiotsLantern Or watching him every day

[@AnIdiotsLantern]

They are paid regardless of what they think. It just shows constant exposure to Colbert doesn't make him less funny.

[@dylanbarkhuizen7227]

LOL The girl on the right at 5:58.

[@margaritam.9118]

I was worrying about her shorts :D

[@Chiro_ASMR]

That was truly awesome!

[@STAWSKINATOR]

Stephen, you need to tone down the intense hip gyrations when you dance. Think of the children.

[@RobynWolf]

Oh yeah. The children at 11:30PM.

[@RobynWolf]

+ChillenMcGrillen93 There's a big difference between 9 and 11:30 buddy.

[@LoloLolo-nz9uo]

+Robin Wolf It doesn't matter, the children will know regardless. Disgusting behaviour from Mr Colbert!

[@zgreenside]

+Robin Wolf Stop feeding the troll. He's not serious.

[@STAWSKINATOR]

+Robin Wolf It's a joke. Someone doesn't understand sarcasm and satire

[@okrajoe]

My kind of video...

[@2011lillian]

I kind of got an Andy Dwyer feel from this song. I wonder if he based any of his singing off of jack black

[@joshuaWEC]

+2011lillian Spread your wings and fly.

[@gort668]

+2011lillian omg a parks and rec fan

[@AKABoondock19]

+2011lillian He's a CHAMPPIOOONNNnn

[@gauravgummaraju]

Boondock LOL

[@zim57]

This was generic enough for me to not be offended by it and love it at the same time. Gentlemen, mission accomplished.

[@lupitamihita1261]

Wow! I love Stephen Colbert.

[@timlazar2821]

meanwhile, Jimmy Fallon is playing beer-pong with some actor you've never heard of...

[@rustyb736]

+MsUsagi513 you're kidding right?

[@timlazar2821]

+MsUsagi513 I used to be a big fan of Jimmy Fallon, but Colbert is much better.

[@zachsmorto5473]

+MsUsagi513 LOL. Idiot.

[@africanghandi]

+MsUsagi513 agreed, however, everyone knows who jack black is. more so than anyone Fallon interviews sometimes, not all the time, sometimes

[@PeregrineX7]

+MsUsagi513 Wow. It was obvious that he was not being 100% literal, but you decide to take the immature road of claiming he was and then pushing him for proof, even though everyone knew what he meant, including you. Also, Jack Black is an extremely well known actor who has appeared in a number of high profile movies such as School of Rock and Tropic Thunder.

[@jasonm3693]

Trump would never use this. It said "I like latinos"

[@margaritam.9118]

No, it meant desperate "See?? I like latinos!". He totally should use it.

[@Irock2412]

+Greta M. Now if it only included "I love the blacks" it would've been great.

[@DeRothschild]

He literally says he loves Mexican people now in all his campaign speeches. Lol

[@margaritam.9118]

+Unlucky Benny and classic "I love women, especially when those bitches are on their periods"

[@gramztoker842]

Lmao when Jack lost his shoe at the end xD Stephen is slowly shutting down his competition (Seth Meyers will be the first to feel it) and making all other late night hosts look like hacks. (except Conan of course)

[@arturodejesuscruzcasab9502]

+ztoker Well of course you can't make Conan look like a hack, the dude has Marshawn Lynch on his team.

[@ishashah9510]

+ztoker Actually, Seth is the only one who deals with some political satire with insight. Kimmel I feel is the most useless of the lot, with Fallon running a close second. IMO.

[@mitchmicheals5613]

Stephen Colbert I jusr LOVEyou!!!!!!!!!!!! you goJack lovely voices

[@owomotaros7290]

Colbert and Black have BARS!

[@queenartly3323]

This song with "unprofessional " singers is probably one of the best songs I have heard since the radio. Plus the words are English and make sense. This song could be a hit based on most modern musical standards.

[@babylonsangma197]

Stephen has a unique talent he received such a good gift

[@callofthewild9175]

Lol wow Jack Black really is everywhere.

[@roddy2422]

+Danelle Lewis its almost like he's trying to sell something

[@hahman12]

+David Rodriguez Yeah, I noticed he seemed to be making the rounds recently. Then i was like "oh right, goosebumps"

[@z-beeblebrox]

+David Rodriguez Yeah it's kind of funny how most of the interview clips that are put up on youtube skip over the part where they name drop whatever thing they're selling

[@Cyrribrae]

+z beeblebrox Yea, so they still bring in views next year

[@biggin92191]

Most/many musicians lean democratic or just don't want (public) political involvement. So, especially for Republicans, just find some royalty-free music.

[@scopeless22]

+Phillip Betts In most cases the artist no longer has the rights to the song and is just making a scene when they can't actually do anything. Many campaigns pay for licensed use of those songs from the actual right holders.

[@TheDajamster]

+Phillip Betts Or they can ask Ted Nugent for the use of his songs.

[@girliboi]

+scopeless22 in most cases artists DO have the rights to the songs they've written, but it's just easier to tell asshole republicans to stop than it is to bring a lawsuit (which can take years and hundreds of thousands of dollars)

[@ComicDude0208]

The video kinda gives that impression...it only mentions the Republicans who were asked to not use certain songs

[@girliboi]

+Josh Mclaughlin please give an example of a democrat being served with a C&D order from a musician.. not saying dems haven't been denied music, just that they're not stupid enough to use it without asking first.

[@dianewhalen9721]

Gotta do a lot more of that Stephen and Jack Black👍👍💕

[@cougarrain]

I can't believe I missed this lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Jack Black is the man & all the back up dancers had me lol😂😂

[@tootz1950]

That was surprisingly good. Watching the both of them made me happy.

[@christosmadrid]

Bloody brilliant

[@marcduperron6062]

Stephen has a nice voice 👍

[@susanmireles9686]

I so want one of the candidates to use this song.

[@gadenp81]

Colbert is going from strength to strength

[@jasonm3693]

Jack Black is talented

[@gorgeousxiphanes6203]

The best two minute song with a three minute ending there is...

[@IR3jects]

that 50 second send off was fantastic

[@vanessaaraujo5340]

Loved that all the dancers had the same outfit xD

[@ROCAincorporados]

hahahahahaha!!! You gotta Love this man! Funny and great wit... as it gets!

[@AugustEverywhere]

"Aerosmith front man and root vegetable, Steven Tyler". . .I can't breathe. . .too much funny!

[@sophia241472]

"Pop n lock, crock pots, flip flop's, n halter tops" LOL

[@margotflamarion4063]

I am french and I LOVE SO MUCH JACK BLACK

[@altitudeillume6729]

MR. michael stipe, a super good guy.

[@aabb3340]

This song is actually pretty awesome.

[@kgal1298]

I kind of wish someone would use this that would be fantastic.

[@bizarroworld475]

his shoe:D LOL 07:42

[@JordanAthemusiclover]

Jack Black's facial expressions are the best, especially at 7:05! And he is still a rock god, look at how he threw his hat off and kicked it up on the firs try! Love Colbert and if no politicians at least reference this song, they have missed out on a great opportunity

[@samspamable]

I will always be happy so as long as Jack Black shall live.

[@jenethatemba9131]

LOL Steven does it again

[@jenethatemba9131]

I was just waiting for the guys to start dancing with each other.... too much?

[@rodham8935]

I adore this enthusiasm, great singers, just thank you.

[@Vallavender333]

if jack black wasnt famous hed just be someones weird kind of funny uncle

[@ahassan3557]

Vance Corsey C.

[@aronjohnson2553]

what a dumb comment.

[@Vallavender333]

Aron Johnson what a dumb reply

[@aronjohnson2553]

its a dumb comment because you could say that about any comedian. if that comedian (insert name here) wasn't famous, he would be your funny uncle.

[@woke7401]

Weird? Kind of funny? Jack black is one of the greatest human beings of all time.

[@emilyhancock3456]

this is so freaking great

[@djdestroyer]

Colbert is pure gold.

[@brandondavidson4085]

Jack Black is the only human on the planet who needs no context for me. Jack Black comes from behind stage and starts singing with Stephen Colbert? Sure, that's classic Jack Black.

[@miltonhilario4883]

God bless America and nowhere else.

[@jasonm3693]

lol REM roasted the shit outta Trump

[@olivejean9]

My favorite so far!! Brilliant!!!

[@MrStensnask]

Best talkshow at the moment along with Conan. I friggin' love JB!

[@satellithias]

Colbert is my kind of nation!

[@sykoelf]

FUCKING AWESOME. Instant classic.

[@0ISanderI0]

this was amazing!

[@cortesione]

what a duo. sweet.

[@doraaaa0613]

I think Adele also recently told Trump off for using one of her songs. LOL

[@christiansleepvideos]

It's pretty early in the morning for dudes in Daisy Dukes...but I might just start every day like this! Freedom!

[@danahcox8308]

Over the top hilarious....Colbert is BACK IN FORM ...!!!!!!!

[@shamicentertainment1262]

Can't wait to get this on cassette

[@mani20194]

Lol, the last minute was pure hysteria.

[@yodogg1779]

HOW MUCH I LOVE LATINOS! !

[@vocalv7558]

I actually like it and if a candidate came out singing that song with Colbert and Black I would love it

[@WalkingmanPattaya]

Musical Comedy Gold ....Jack and Stephen singing. 2018 left there because it was not my kind of America anymore 😂😄...Peace and Love

[@jlcjapon59]

Missed that one! Excellent!

[@magicrat74]

Why would anyone use "Rockin' in a free world" anyway? Have he read the lyrics? This is even sillier than Reagan using "Born in the USA"

[@magicrat74]

I was about to start writing a comment about not knowing he used that particular song, but at least Springsteen supported Obama. And then I realized it's yet another birther joke..

[@PatriotsOfWash]

3:56 starts now

[@PatriotsOfWash]

Thanks man

[@PatriotsOfWash]

@Patriotsoftwash you’re welcome, man.

[@minervaloves]

Those guys in those shorts though especially the black guy in the middle 😍

[@tamikoestomo3275]

Now, in 2018, two years hence: sing that song again to remind people what life in the USA must be like!!!

[@noeliajaime7656]

I remember when Reagan used Born in the U.S.A for his campaign.Bruce was not happy.

[@renegade5130]

Jack Black really went for it

[@NORT527]

Is the song on spotify... cause I loved it

[@xirensixseo]

It never ends... Ever...

[@scottc5783]

omg, this is so damn awesome. I can't stop watching it

[@facehugger89]

Letterman would never do this gotta love Colbert also if I wanted to pump people up I would play some ACDC or something

[@bigjoshy3531]

Trump using "End of the World As We Know It" was god damn prophetic looking back on it...

[@gort668]

Beautiful

[@davidcapo2661]

Please... for the love of god.... I need one of the candidates to actually use this.

[@wilberforce95]

I love the double intros Stephen always gives to people he mentions..."root vegetable"

[@SharifSourour]

I love that kind of milking it at the end... Thanks for bringing that back! Was missing it. LOL :D

[@trouble4140]

AWESOME I get to use the latest Colbert-ism. That was SMARD CORE.

[@opertinicy]

Instant classic.

[@RickyRecruit]

Black guy in dukes was killing it!

[@foxmfilms]

this is the counter-song to tenacious d's "the government totally sucks"

[@aaronhendrix7347]

I love the fact that the description says, "Lincoln Chafee, this could be your moment."

[@ewhoyer]

Wow. That gave me goosebumps!
