Spike jonze is such a great director. This was like a short film shot in a single take.

Karen O’s smile when she sings always makes me happy

[izzyflowers]

Karen O. is one of my favorite lead singers. She's amazing live. I hope they take this album on a tour.

[eps]

Man, Colbert is taking late night music performances to the next level.. whaaaat?! So good!!

[threechapters]

I love that moment at 2:30 where Beanie and two dancers huddle together. Such a simple way to depict sisterhood. The way they whispered, too, seemed like they were sharing stories and making sure everyone was all right. That sense of collective consciousness was so stunning.

[TdcWillies]

Unprecedented. Must have been nerve-wracking with all the planning, choreography, short set-up time, prop placement, black-out auditorium, bright lights in the performers' faces... my goodness. How in thee hell did Spike Jonze use all of the available space? That's a seriously interesting mind. BTW, Karen O can friggin sing all get out. Thank you Sir ColdBeer for hosting this.

[androphagie]

What television should always be like!! So freaking bold stuff here!

[sv]

This is spectacular, and I love the glee on Stephen's face, as he participates.

[WrestlingDaze]

Huge fan of Karen O, have been since the 'Master' EP by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Can't believe all these years later she's still the same creative force she has always been. Fantastic stuff!!!

[christianhammond]

OK SO THIS WAS OFFICIALLY THE BEST LIVE PERFORMANCE IVE EVER SEEN

[andreah]

Been a K.O fan since 2002 & she just gets better. Can't beat that voice!

[shanajennings]

Karen o's voice control is amazing for how active she is on stage! I would be up there gasping for air

[manniem]

That was sooo freaking cool!! I’ve never seen anything like this in a live performance!

[Seth]

Great job, guys. Definitely the most ambitious thing I've seen on Late Night TV. Exactly what I would expect from KarenMouse!

[JTDOOM]

We don’t deserve Karen O. Been a fan since yeah yeah yeahs... can’t believe I never seen or heard this til now

[laurencebarnes]

I remember seeing this pop up in my you tube feed over a year ago. Karen O AND Colbert! Yes please! Over a year later, I have lost tracks of how many times I've listen to Lux Prima and rewatch this video. Both the album and this short film are perfect. I wish there was more live music on television like this.

[eliucornielle]

One of my dreams as a filmmaker is to see Spike direct in person!

Once again, so inspired by his creativity!

[terinma]

That was one of the best live performances I’ve seen in a long time, or maybe ever. So creative. Loved everything about it.

[willmallory]

Women of different races and body types all gathered together in unity...a beautiful sight to see.

[xebio]

Best tv I've watched in a long time. Memorable, literally.
