Here’s a vintage clip from Colbert’s past life as part of the “noted 1980s new wave sensation Stephen & The Colberts,” unearthed during the news anchor’s response to The Decemberists counter challenge to Colbert’s initial gauntlet slap. The Decemberists will be on the show 12/20 to settle the green screen showdown once and for all, with Colbert generously giving Colin and co “homefield advantage by holding the contest in December.” No word on whether we’ll see clips from Colbert’s Flying-V metal outfit, Symphonies Of The Infernal, during that taping — but if so, it’s bound to have even more whammy bar to deal with!
UPDATE: Head here for the full “Charlene (I’m Right Behind You)” video, which comes from the album The Charlene Collection: Vol 1. (Thanks, Pandyora!)
UPDATE #2: You guys are good. For your PMP! (Thanks, doggie!)

They Might Be Giants score the Daily Show, and this sounds uncannily like their handiwork – does anyone know if they’re responsible for this? (It’s generic enough that it doesn’t have to be them, and maybe it’s that Colbert [if that's his voice] is singing surprisingly sort of like Linnell…)

this is amazing. cage match style.
