Jon is incredibly talented. The Late Show was lucky to have him for so long and I'm glad he's continued to grow his sound. I look forward to what he'll gift us all in his future.

[@SusanBame]

Getting all teary-eyed seeing Jon Batiste return to this stage. Thank you for being you, Jon.

[@The_Atheist_Carpenter5625]

Jon! Man I missed seeing him on the show. What a legend🙌

[@everythingiseverything9920]

I miss him too

[@jroth9081]

Everyone should be so lucky as Jon and Stephen. To have someone who cares about them deeply, from the heart.

[@b.comeau2597]

Jon’s music is so creative and inspiring…love this song…we are the same…he is a genius!

A counterpoint to U2's "One"

So great to be back ♥️

[@juliegilleland7947]

His joy is infectious!!

[@sydkiriakou2481]

Only to people that are caring to all man kind no matter what colour we are? 🤷‍♂️

[@crazyeyecarl]

I'm so happy for Jon Batiste, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss him on the show.

[@JessBeautyJunkie]

He's a virtuoso, and and even better human being. Suleika is a dream as well. They both deserve all the recognition in the world ❤

[@donnaarsenoff8399]

Jon is a beautiful human being.

[@LeCanalBarbaraAnne]

This is Peace on Earth. Bravo a thousand times.

[@Miimisky]

Gosh I sure missed Jon on the show such a delightful sight to see him back performing 🥰♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🥰🥰

[@cherylb6755]

I love Jon Batiste and his super happy piano❣️

[@BrohamerT]

I had wondered how the departure of Jon Batiste went from a friendship standpoint. I loved this performance and the interaction between the two of them. Wonderful.

[@amberandrews6842]

Stephen was happy for Jon. Wished he would have stayed, but like fledglings leaving the nest, you WANT to see them fly and succeed!!

[@BrohamerT]

@@amberandrews6842 So true. Since I had not heard the details of his departure, tonight made me feel so much better. We should all help support one another.

[@avc1648]

Ever band members was watching their buddy jam out with such pride in their eyes. You can tell how much he is truly loved by all of them. Amazing human and music!

[@treehuggingbuddhist]

The absolute joy on the musician’s faces as they play is priceless. 🙏🏽

[@TravelingWithLex]

I was a bit sad and confused when Jon left the Late Show band. But now it's all so clear, and so right. This is a musical GIANT who needed to fly. What a remarkable talent, backed up here by the best of the best. BRAVO.

[@norarivers2744]

Full circle with Jon back with Stephen. Beautiful song🫂💛✨

[@ChrisJones-gx7fc]

Am I right in saying this is Jon’s first time back to the Ed Sullivan theater since he left? Stephen was going to have him on before but something came up that prevented that.

[@GalactusOG]

The Prodigal son returns.

[@misterbennnn]

@@ChrisJones-gx7fcThey talk about that in the interview: first the writers strike, then Stephen catching covid, then Stephen's appendix delayed their reunion in the theater.

[@L.DOT.P.]

I HAVE NO WORDS STEPHEN SAID “I LOVE YOU” I LOVE YOU TOO JON! YOU’VE CARRIES GOD’S LOVE TO THE BIG LEAGUES!!!

[@ZadnoleyaEdits]

So proud of our boy! Jon’s out here Thriving 😊

[@bobknull7502]

Is anyone else old enough to remember the sitcom "My favorite martian"? That is what those headphones reminded me of.

Nice to see Jon back if only for a short time...❤

[@kitsmith806]

Who could not LOVE this man and his music! He touches my soul, makes my spirit dance with the joy of believing in the good despite the things we see going on in the world today , 🎉🤸🏾🕺🏾💃🏾🎼🎶we are born the same 🎵

[@Vincent-fo7xp]

I don't like him

[@brycecupp9660]

​@@Vincent-fo7xpYou can dislike his music all you like. But it's hard to dislike a man who cares about you and everybody else in this world. I feel sorry for people who can't accept that unconditional love from other people

[@bonnieflynn4798]

I feel sorry for you Vincent. If you don’t know of his amazing music and his genius. He’s is descended from generations of New Orleans musicians and a graduate of Juilliard. America still has space for genius to thrive. And on top of that he’s such a loving person Makes me grateful The documentary on Netflix is wonderful

[@kellynkarr6270]

The build into the chorus makes me tear up every time. It’s so powerful. The musicians on that stage spread pure joy and love for music. I can’t get enough. ❤❤

[@vmax4575]

Genius and joyfulness. All in a person who is always looking to the light in life. Thank you.

[@reluctantrobbie]

What a beautiful song. Jon Batiste makes music for the soul ❤

[@dennismclaurin1487]

[@valencia4834]

The perfect worship song, give him praise. Thank you Thank you 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@GDletterwriter]

I'm loving listening to this fabulous CD in my car....loud! ❤

[@daunafuller9868]

Same here!!! I also put songs on repeat and my husband will ask, “Didn’t we just listen to that song?” Why, yes. Yes we did. And we are going to listen to it again. And the entire CD for at least another week or two straight!😁😁

[@francescaa8331]

So nice to see you back in the Ed Sullivan Theater!

[@00090rehpotsirhc]

The whole band just sounds so good! It’s great to see these two power houses on the same stage again!

[@de_mainvulcan]

❤❤❤❤ Funky. Groovy. Soulful. And long enough for me to fully enjoy it. Songs these days are like 2 minutes long. Now this takes it's time. Love it. 100 big ups to Jon Baptiste 🎉

[@t.robinson4774]

The 80’s ears! 😂 Welcome home Jon. We love you ❤️. Thanks for the gift of the music.

[@xerotigercat]

We miss you Jon! Please come back from time to time and run the band again.

[@BelleTolles]

What an absolutely amazing performance -- so much going on, all the rhythms and harmonies. That piano at end was 🔥. And always great to see the cowboy drummer pulling it all together.

[@beenice9867]

Jon, you make this world a better place. Your light shines on all of us.

[@figmo397]

I love that guy! The description is spot-on; Batiste exudes joy when he performs. I love the way his music manages to avoid being boxed into one "style" or "genre" yet still manages to hook you.

[@barbietrink4984]

Welcome back. He is so talented ❤ from 🇨🇦 Music will hopefully save the world from devastation. ❤

[@jonbatistemusic]

WE ARE BORN THE SAME!! RETURN TO THAT PLACE !!

[@yvonneb6540]

This guy is a musical genius!! Always love to watch him!!!

[@blairbrown4812]

The Late Show was too small a venue for so brilliant a talent. Nonetheless, it is great to see him come home, if only briefly.

[@Eduardo_Badal]

Stephen, you quite possibly have one of the greatest performers on this planet on your show tonight.💙

[@MsSherryjh]

"We are born to sing!" Hallelujah Jon!

[@jasonjimerson7046]

Glad to see him back for one night. Much love to Jon!!! ❤

[@val_SBD]

The Hollywood round table he was a part of last week was amazing. He and some top charting female artists reminisced about each other's success, and it was so genuine. Billie, Dua Lipa, Olivia Rodrigo, Cynthia and Julia Michaels. He made me cry happy tears.

[@BelleTolles]

Sounds interesting, except seeing Olivia Rodrigo there would not fit for me

[@TheRogueStatesman]

this world doesn't deserve such a beautiful human being... but we need him now more than EVER!

[@shepinchains1]

His biopic on Netflix is damn good. Jon is so talented!

Such a deeply layered and complex performance, would have to listen/watch again dozens if not hundreds of times, just to get the whole thing.

Jon just lights up a room. I feel so joyful when he's on the show. Missed him so much. He's like an earth angel. Beautiful man inside and out. So talented and unique. There is no one like him.

Not gonna lie, I tested up at that moment of genuine affection when Jon and Stephen hugged at the end.

[@valeriejohnson9252]

I'm crying....You & I are All the same....When are United as One!😢😊❤

Jon is so good it makes me cry. One of the greats of our time. ❤

"It's only you that makes me all I am." Beautiful. Brought me to tears.

[@24cts]

An artist in their element!!! Love this. Everyone looked like they were catching this artists creative joy!!

[@patriciamorgan6545]

What the world needs now is...more uplifting music like this. It spreads love and gives people hope. Its the missing ingredient (since the 60s-70s) that can bring people together instead of tearing them apart. I hope you win the Grammy, Jon, and go on to inspire so many more.❤
