Sunshine in a person. What a beautiful man

[davidserlin]

I liked Jon Batiste before this but my admiration for him has just now exponentially expanded. Impeccable taste in music and sandwiches.

[davidsimi]

Jon has now convinced me that a hot dog is a sandwich, Forrest Gump is an action movie, and dude, you have changed the world. Much respect, my man

[misterderp]

What a shining light Jon is. So happy for him and his success and the positivity he radiates to the world.

[kathrynchase]

Jon is a ray of sunshine in a, quite often, dark and rainy world. All the best to him and his family.

“Trying to change the world” what a legend, doesn’t he know he already has 🙌

[carolynkaufman]

What an incredible human Jon is. He keeps his own peace while setting the best example for all of us. He makes my heart happy. And then there is his music. No words can describe the joy….

[CassTaz]

Jon and Suleika. Time together. Always the best decision. Hoping the bone marrow transfer is successful. Respect.

[heddygirafe]

That was the best set of answers that I've heard. Jon gave thoughtful consideration to each question and responded with honesty and integrity.

[TOJMNYP]

Such a beautiful human. He is music. His laugh is music. His talking is music. Gotta love Jon.

[SARGENTOA]

Just downloaded his favorite songs. No better suggestions for music than those that come from a musician.

Jon is an easy-going, extraordinarily talented, and fun-loving dude. But he's also a very complex, generous, spiritual, and thoughtful gentleman. And it's that dichotomy, which often goes unseen on The Late Show, that makes him the beautiful soul we all love.
Thank you, Jon, for being everything you are to all of the people in your life.

[karenfitzpatrick]

Jon is a good person. The World needs more with his attitude. Peace, Love, Music, and Gratitude. God blessed him.

[nicorobin]

Finally, the one we've been waiting for. One of this generation's brightest and most creative minds. All of his answers are the correct answers.

[GabrielTravelerVideos]

He's undoubtedly the suavest guy around.
