Watch Michael Stipe, Brian Eno, and Stephen Colbert perform "Lean On Me" a capella

by Nicole Villeneuve

Aside from everything about this being the best part of this, the actual best part of this is when Stephen Colbert picks Michael Stipe up and plops him up on a little shelf seat, like a little wee baby. TGIF, friends!

Watch the trio peform on The Colbert Report above. Thanks to Exclaim! for the Canadian stream hat-tip.
