When I first discovered Reggie, I had to go on a deep dive of his performances to figure out what his real voice sounded like. He had this thing where he almost never used his normal speaking voice for a couple years and it was wild.

Reggie thrives on making the audience feel uncomfortable and clueless about what they are witnessing, and then hitting them with some incredible harmonies, so good!

Reggie: “…you know what I’m saying, ” Everyone: “maybe?”

[JustinSmithXenoabe]

I love watching people come fresh into this kind of absurd comedy and just be so confused.

[Prederick]

What I love about this (and Reggie) is that there's barely any understandable phrases in this song, and yet I know all the words and it feels like I've heard it before.

Being from southern Louisiana, this is beyond hilarious. Reggie is NAILING it.

I watched this clip live on TV. Reggie watts looks exactly the same. And it’s crazy how time flies. I’m gonna miss Conan.

I’ve said it for years and I still believe it. Reggie Watts is not of this world.

[nothanks]

Reggie is so unbelievably talented.

He's going to go on to even greater things.

Awesome.

4:35-4:40 Reggie Watts. The only person to PERFECTLY /SIMULTANEOUSLY emulate, D'Angelo, Prince, and a kookaburra. Ya feel?!

This is one of my favorite Reggie performances! Everything he does is enigmatic. I hope he makes a special again soon.

4:58 When Reggie raises his fist at the end my whole body had goose bumps

[YOitsJohnDough]

Definitely one of the best reposts I've ever seen. Whoever decided to do this and get Reggie the exposure and recognition he deserves did a service unto us all. He's got an app! so get yourself together!

[sujalgautam]

Conan ending late night is a major part of my life i still cannot believe

[garywhitt]

A fantastic musician refusing your right to take him seriously. Lovely.

[icedbannanas]

Best example of never EVER judge a book by its cover. Amazing, Reggie forever.

[blacksabbath]

Damn... Reggie is f talented! Way under rated artist!!

[aemontarg]

H3H3 with Marc Rebillet, Flying Lotus and Reggie did that same exact beat and vocals, music really do be different but the same LOL

[illygah]

This aired a couple weeks before my 23rd birthday. I'd never seen anything like it before. Reggie Watts is one of those people who actually blew my mind with music. Him, John Lennon, Beethoven and Philip Glass
