Stephen Colbert brings his signature satire and comedy to THE LATE SHOW with STEPHEN COLBERT, the #1 show in late night, where he talks with an eclectic mix of guests about what is new and relevant in the worlds of politics, entertainment, business, music, technology and more. Featuring bandleader Louis Cato and “THE LATE SHOW band,” the Peabody Award-winning and Emmy Award-nominated show is broadcast from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater. Stephen Colbert took over as host, executive producer and writer of THE LATE SHOW on Sept. 8, 2015. - Zábava
Stephen Colbert has accomplished many things in his career, but bringing Jon Batiste to national attention was a gift to the entire world.
When he was still on Colbert's show... I kept saying Mr. Batiste needs way more love than being on a late night show... I knew his moment would come.
Amen & amen! 🙏🏽 🦋✨ The world needs more Jon Batiste & Colbert! ♥️
Because Batiste is simply SUPER GOOD a talent extraordinaire!
💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Those fingers on those keys Is a wonder
Nothing on CZcams has ever demanded, earned and received my full attention like this performance!! Captivating!!
On top of the fact that the man wrote the song to assist his wife in recovering from leukemia of all things. ❤❤❤ John truly has a heart made of something better than gold
Agree. I just posted this on my Facebook page in love for my lost father, son and grandmother whom we buried yesterday - All at this time of year. Beautiful. Thank you Jon.
I'm a 6"1 260lb marine and this just brought me to tears.
@@ChrisSmith-5655That's because real men cry!
@@marywood8794 yes mam
I just love this so much. The theme is pure beauty, but then he throws in these atonal minor notes to take you out of the ease of emotions, to make you back up and think some, before reinvesting yourself into the quiet elegance.
A previous commenter nailed it - this was captivating.
This is such a great analysis as well! Just wanted to say! All the best ❤
100%
💙
I so agree❤
Quietly elegant...a great description. This reminds me of being young.
what he said...
I'm just imagining him playing this for Suleika, neither one of them knowing whether she's coming home from the hospital or whether this time, the cancer is going to take her "HOME", and I am tearing up. And then he smiles while playing, and it's clear this man tries his best to live in the moment with gratitude.
He is wonderfully religious.
❤
Blessings or well-being and healing ❤
Beautiful comment❣️
Thank you for saying what I wanted to but couldn’t express it well enough.
This had to honor his beautiful wife who has struggled. I'm sure they've had this conversation. Beautiful Butterfly. 🦋❤ Absolutely Beautiful Butterfly. 🦋
Love this musician; a great musician and person❤😊
He's just a good human. Positive vibes from New Hampshire, remember to be kind to each other and yourself during these trying times.
You can tell Stephen is just brimming with pride and excitement for Jon!
Thank you, Jon Batiste for sharing your indescribable talent with the world, when we most need it. ❤
Yes. I echo your sentiment 🤍
You make it sound like he did it for altruistic or.mostly.selfess reaspns..but doesn't he do it because he wants to for mainly.selfish reaspns..nothing wrong with that..just saying..It just comes to mind when I hear ppl say things like thst..
❤
The chords he plays after “crazy as a loon” is why he’s a genius second, and an artist first, but definitely both.
Yes yes yes ❤❤❤
I'll be honest the breakdown in the middle and the weird arpeggio at the end attracted my attention more. The middle bit had a wonderfully carefree vibe.
Yes! Great use of some classic jazz chords. Just wonderful…wow
I mean, it's a smart chord choice, but it's a classic jazz substitution.There's so much more to him as a musician than that one choice- specifically the way he blends his classical training with this roots in New Orleans, and now with more Pan-African flavours. That's the true genius and artistry.
@@matbroomfieldthe arpeggio at the end was the butterfly fluttering away. 💙
Ergh, I’m not crying- YOU’RE crying! Obviously the man is a musical genius & has a truly beautiful voice, but the pure heart in this is something else entirely. ❤
It's The Heart ❤️, Definitely ❤️
My wife has cancer too and I am crying proudly!
Why do you say he is a musical genius?
Beautiful talent with a beautiful soul
Pure soul. I’ve always liked this guy but after watching his film on Netflix I’m really rooting for him he’s special for sure
That’s a beautiful song on its own. Knowing how and why it was written made me tear up.
You are the best Jon.
3:19 ❤💔❤❤
This one got me. So beautiful. Imagine the paintings his wife created while this lullaby was playing for her during her recovery like he said. So beautiful.
Besides being a fantastic musician and vocalist the man has such a beautiful soul. Miss him on the show nightly so very happy to see him. My Christmas present.
😘🇨🇦
I lost my mom to cancer in 2008 and this song is pulling at all my heartstrings. Just beautiful.
I also lost my mom to cancer in 2008. 💚 it's been a long time, but those quiet, beautiful, restful moments really stick with you.
She would have loved this song.
Same, last year. I'm a grown ass man and def have that lump in my throat.
Me as well. She would've loved this.
Much love to Jon, you, and everyone in your comments who have gone through that.
I lost my mom to cancer that year also. ❤
What a beautiful song, John! Thank you!
This is SUCH a beautiful song! I saw him perform it last night on Colbert's show & had to see it again, because I couldn't get it out of my head. So touching that he wrote it for his wife while she was undergoing chemo for a recurrence of her leukemia. May God heal her & good luck to Jon at the Grammys. Well-deserved nominations.❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤
Wow. What a beautiful soul!
I'm a humble singer guitarist in an Australian touring 'indie' R&R band but I consider this as one of the sweetest piano ballads I have ever heard and as Batiste said, it was for his wife in hospital.
The man is a loving genius.
A beautiful tribute to a beautiful wife.
Gives me Louis Armstrong, What a Wonderful World vibes. Timeless and beautiful music
Yes! I was thinking the same to🦋🦋🦋
If you have not heard Jon Batiste's version of What a Wonderful World yet, please do so. It's fantastic.
@@princesschattycathy He did a version? I’ll definitely give it a listen..
Damn Jon, you are a national treasure!
Butterfly is beautiful John, thank you for sharing with the world!
That not only is a stunningly beautiful heartwarming tribute but noticed the care in recording his performance visually. This is what happens when your coworkers think the world of you, who you are, and want you and the world to know it.
Stunningly, beautiful… And certainly my vote for song of the year.
Well said! It was staged with a reverance, nicely put
59 years old and that was one of the most beautiful moments I have ever seen on television I live near his hometown of Kenner LA. So proud of this genius. I got over concerts about 20 years ago, but def looking at tour dates now.
The world needs more people like Jon Batiste ❤️
I'm fighting with tears ... for all those who lost a loved one who was battling a long terminal illness, this hits home heavy. 😢 the music really ressembles a butterfly flying home. 🦋 thank you Jon Batiste. I really hope for you and Suleika! ❤
Tears welling up in my eyes. So beautiful
Just utterly beautiful.
One of the coolest moments was sitting in the Late Show audience in the early months of the show. Seats were front row but off to the side - not a great view for the guests, but basically front row seats for the magic that was Jon Batiste and Stay Human.
He's missed on the show, but boy am I glad the rest of the world has caught up to the level of ears listening and accompanying accolades he deserves.
Heart and joy in everything. Rarely in music does so much technical talent coincide with such deep, palpating emotion. We're lucky to get to see it in real time.
A very real blessing for me to see and hear a man... even an African American brother be so in touch with his feelings and emotions. The fact that he's unafraid to express them in such a tender way speaks volumes about his level of maturity as a man and just as a human "being" period. Lovely man....I'd love to know more about his upbringing. ❤❤❤
What a person to have in your corner as you struggle with a life and death illness! Her painting and his music...a perfect combination! Wishing her continued strength and good health with this beautiful man in her corner. Merry Christmas everyone!
Merry Christmas to you as well.
My new favorite Jon Batiste song. Best to Jon and his wife❤❤❤❤❤
Amazing. Thanks for sharing your gift with us all.
Heart strings humming ❤ 🦋
Another beautiful song Jon
Jon is unique. He transcends musical genres and lives in a world void of boundaries and touches the universal.
Lost my wife to cancer 20 years ago. Can’t stop crying with this piece! Just lovely
So sorry to hear. May her soul continue to rest well. May God comfort you and your family.
I'm sorry to that . But Jon has faith in God.Every things going alright.i enjoy your music .
Goosebumps!!!
I feel so fortunate that I get to experience Jon real time. He seems like he came from another age when people were more honest & sincere. He’s such a gem. I wish he & his wife all the best!
Damn. Just damn. 🦋
I miss him badly. I wish he was still on the Late Show but I understand life and loved ones take you in a different direction. Love you John Batiste.
New guy is talented but he doesn't leap into the conversation like Jon did. I keep waiting but it's not happening. And I miss the piano in the intro.
This song evokes in me the feeling of being sheltered safe in the arms of my beloved. I’m disabled, and have spent many nights curled up in pain, just so. Thank you for the gift of this song. You are right, it touched my spirit deeply.
You recognized his talent many years ago and you should be proud to fathered this talent.
Jon Batiste's voice just touch your soul in such a way. Soothing and mellow yet deep. ❤
I love his speaking voice as well. So commanding yet soft. ❤️
My mother was a piano teacher, and she would have loved him. The man is pure music.
Such beauty in a song !!
What a beautiful performance and song. ❤❤❤🎹🦋
Jon's performance of 'Butterfly' has me in tears, such a beautiful song. Lost a friend to brain cancer and the song evokes the fact she's now free from her suffering. I sincerely hope Jon's wife will fully recover and be free from her illness,
He is so full of love and talent... I have missed him on the show... ❤
That was beautiful. Wow what a talent that man is. I absolutely loved the documentary and I now see his artistry in a whole new light, and what a bright light it is.
Oh we miss you on the show, Sir! This is beautiful ❤
A true artist and poet. It's so lovely to see him return to his Late Show home.
I cried thru this entire segment!! The love he exudes for his wife thru this.....just waterfall tears......
I love Jon. He's so talented. ❤
Just beautiful. 🦋
John Batiste is a beautiful man who exudes so much Love... Merry Christmas everyone!!!❤✝️🎄🕊️☃️
What a lovely song - it felt like it was in my heart all my life (65years) and you let my butterfly free... and it is so pretty... Thank you, Jon - you have such a beautiful heart :)
Sof from London UK
Beautiful. Got real late Beatles energy. Sounds like something McCartney would have written.
Oh my gosh, yes!!!!! We’re lucky to have JB. All the best ❤
Better, actually
McCartney would chuckle at this comment... No-one in the Beatles even knew how to read music. He often says they were just a bunch of amateurs that got extremely lucky. The musicianship displayed here is far beyond what McCartney could pull off. (he's still a great musician, don't get me wrong)
Nina Simone is more apt a comparison, his phrasing and his tone reminds me of her quite a bit.
@@ecbrown6151 agreed.
💙
So beautiful. He should absolutely win. So should his wife.
There are no words
Melody is raptious. Such a beautiful song. Thank you Jon.❤
I have been preaching of the great work at Sloan-Kettering. I still need to believe that love is best medicine. Bless you both and keep safe.❤❤❤❤
Jon snatched this from the air and infused it with his inimitable and beautiful genius. Such a lovely song, right from the heart!
What a gift that Jon chose to share this beautiful love song/lullaby with us. * Sniffs *
This is phenomenal. Well done and beautifully written and sung. This brought tears to my eyes. Wow! 🙂
Hearing this....Best GIFT this season!!! Welcome back Jon Batiste !!
The gift Stephen Colbert gave us keeps right on giving. Beautiful song from a beautiful human being. We should all strive to be like Jon. Bless his good heart.
Wonderful. Gave me goose bumps and made me feel so peaceful at the same time. An absolute work of art and coming from such an amazing place
Just are not enough words to describe how much I adore and admire Jon as an artist as well as the phenomenal human being he is.
Steven looks like a proud dad 🥰
My heart is so full from this song that i just don’t know what to say. Blessings on Jon and Suleika.
Beautiful and immensely touching. Not that it matters, all things considered, but many Grammys are en route.
Magnifique 😔 Jon Batiste est un des plus grands artistes actuel. Merci pour cette performance et cette magnifique chanson 🙏
This is so beautiful, but you also nailed restful. I will be adding it to my relax playlist.
JB! A Unigue Soul with a Realm of Heavenly Gifts to help us forget that someday we have to leave this place. Thank you Jon!
Wow! I knew the man was good, but I had no idea! Just beautiful - the music, the lyrics, his voice, the delivery.
Wow, what a beautiful song and he plays the piano so very naturally!
It's great to have you back even just for the night, Jon. In fine form as always!
What a treat!
Thank you Jon
Ok, I’m literally wiping away tears as I’m watching my phone. What a true gift the world JB is. Effortlessly breathtaking. Thank you.
Such a beautiful song, so wonderful to hear John's voice again. A musical genius.
This is not the kind of music I would ever just listen to... but OMG hearing him sing and play this put me in tears. I know the story behind this song, and you can't hear this and not feel the love and admiration he has for his wife, and hear the flutter of butterfly wings. This is just so emotional and pure and good and inspirational and calming. Thank you, Jon... thank you so much for sharing this part of you with us.
World music radio. . Perfection. Go get your copy too. You won't regret it. Love for all at this blessed season

Love this song on many levels. Thank you, Jon. I lost my father to cancer in 2011 and hearing this was made for your wife going through it now is both beautiful and heart breaking.
So beautiful…who’s cutting onions😢😢😢you are a gift to the world Jon ❤❤❤thank you ❤
Wow, what can I say. I have been looking for a song to complete my puzzle, a uligy for my 94 yr.old mother. I have search long and hard for many years and one day I turn on Stephen Corbert and Jon Batiste just hand me the missing pieve to my puzzle
My Mom ( the honey child) will have the send off she justly deserves as I will be dresses in white. Thank you Jon Batiste.
What an exceptional creative heartwarming individual that continues to bring us so much joy. Warm healing hope to his lovely wife and all going through their own individual health challenges. BUTTERFLY ❤
Jeez Mr. John Batiste! 😭 You hit every note. You've been through it. Thank you for sharing every note with us lowly civilians. You give us all some hope. You have such a tender beautiful voice and soul. That song changed me.
ooh- loved that monk chord with ‘crazy as a loon’. really one of the few very best doing it these days
Extraordinary. It's amazing to hear someone so talented in a world of manufactured music. I'm glad that Suleika is doing better and wish her continued health.
This is beautiful...I have no words to express how deeply it touched my heart.
So wonderful to see Jon Batiste again! We all miss him but like a butterfly, he had to spread his wings and fly. Spread his talent and creativity around the world…
