The Black Belles - Charlene (I'm Right Behind You)

[ssrb653]

Sharlene dislikes this video

[jjja494]

@ssrb653 Nice spelling... 

[lexduex]

You can listen their debut album in my channel.

[gravitygurl27]

i wish colbert's website still had the video of them performing this :(

[guthax30]

@gravitygurl27 Probably has to do with copy right restriction and what not...

[BobTheSkeleton]

I do like how they're version takes on a completly different tone then the colbert version.

[haarez]

@BobTheSkeleton "their" not "they're", and "than" not "then".

[kam3ll1ta]

haha their look reminds me of a mix between marilyn manson and the ramones...their music is pretty sick tho!!

[kam3ll1ta]

[BrutalChild]

@Franch208 Erm.. Girls?

[DizzyWindow]

lol am I the only one who liked when Stephen sang it? hahahaha

[Imnotsaidaouita]

what a great song.....but only 1:31 long?

[bernardbulte]

damn this sucks ><

[sanjnalat]

I like it, but Colbert's is a lot creepier. He just sounds so gleeful about stalking 'Charlene'.

[UglyJarvG]

Bad Ass.

[blackmath8]

@sandovaljon

They have one now!

[Try2MakeSenseOrSTFU]

This song is bad ass.

[MegaUglyface]

i can't stop listening to this. It sounds like it should be in the adam's family

[Barmicash]

I got to give these ladies props for keeping straight faces throughout all of Colbert's shenanigans in that episode.

[DonnySN]

-Stephen Colbert "Do you think these ladys are ready for the colbert bump"

-Jack White "They are"

-Stephen Colbert "because i think right now..."

-Jack White "what's a colbert bump?"

-Stephen Colbert "YOU! You mother fucker! are about to find out."

[jasonmarktobin]

It;s true..... they do it better than Colbert, these girls rock!!!!

[jasonmarktobin]

It;s true.....  they do it better than Colbert, these girls rock!!!!

[crudpickle]

I wish it wasn't so short. ;_;

[ohjames88]

when the fuck are the belles gonna have an album?!?!?!?!

[Hirnlego999]

Colbert's version is better.

[patque3024]

THEY DONT ALWAYS WEAR SUITS, this is the only time they have ever worn suits like that, and it was only for Colbert, since he is never seen without one, ussually there gothy and dark as hell, they dont need to change anything just more people need to hear about The Black Belles

[dzshelley89]

great band!!



[CyberPunkViking]

if you watch them play with colbert, he seems to piss them off lol :3

[AnotherPostcard]

I was actually sad it was over so quickly. Like Stephen and Charlene.

[surfin392]

The biggest hurdle for them is the getup. It's way to niche to last. They're talented, that's for sure, but i'll place my bet that their costumes will cause a cap in their popularity.

[ScotRotum]

@surfin392 I disagree, gothic businesswoman is obviously an untapped well, overflowing with potential and will never dry up.

[jaredong]

@surfin392

there are bands do the whole uniform thing. White Stripes for one. KISS. Hives. to name more like, mainstream ones. Im quite sure theres alot of goth bands that dress like this too.

[surfin392]

@jaredong all i'm saying is that VISUALLY (they're looking like the female version of the WWF undertaker) they have a very large hill to climb, MUSICALLY however they're alright in my book.

[renee2971]

@surfin392 Don't agree. I love it when bands dress up - that's part of the fantasy. When bands go up in ripped jeans and t-shirts, I can't stand it. Rock stars should look unobtainable and cooler than the general population. These women do.

[SalmonSoldier]

Colbert bump

[zodiakzzzzz]

best guitar solo EVER

[jenniferlovechild]

don't thank the black belles, thank jack white

[lorndarken]

@jenniferlovechild jack white needs to make music with jack black .

[Dick69Hurtz]

They look like Mods.

[Pandorasboxxes13]

Does anyone know the chords?

[Durandal1717]

Sounds like a toned down version of Ivan & The Necrolytes.

Better stick with Stephen & The Colberts.

[WormYourHonor64]

@Durandal1717 I just looked them up. First song I click sounds extremely similar...

watch?v=i_eNqn9pcJM

[crackengine]

This is a good song now. Thank you Belles

[akaufmanbmrly1]

f#cuking hell man....these sluts can rip

[LethalLos507]

THK GOD 4 JACK & BLUES & RAD CHIX

[ChrisANDOllons]

I don't know f these girls were looking for success or not, but with their talent and the mighty Colbert Bump they shall achieve it.

[aulus92]

wow 0 dislikes, nice :D

[KamikazeKonscript]

Man skip that. Stephen is a lyrical genius. "No more watching you cook dinner, perched in your sycamore tree... By the way, you're lookin thinner, not that it matters to me..." Wow... I mean yeah, he went totally stalker mode, but thats comedic/lyrical platinum!!! This song though, is freakin crazy. The tall lead guitarist chick... Id let her strum my gibson, if you catch my riff ;)

[gsvard]

Can anyone tab the intro?

[sevelev711]

Colbert really is magical. To almost make a huge thing with a tiny song on the Report.

[bmilsk99]

Hilarious album cover

[Thetalkingbaby77]

stephen colbert was awarded a restraining order for this

[justmauiful]

>_> is it just me or are all of these girls EXTREMLY attractive

[Lost77]

@justmauiful It's not just you, if that's any consolation.

[mognite]

@justmauiful just u maybe

[rekson74k]

Badass solo at the end, I'm liking this bands unique riffs and bluesy solos, Jack White knows how to scout talent.

[unaffiliatedperson]

this song makes sense when they sing it

[davidawilson1]

i like the girl on the far right :)

[doublemagikarp]

i think of you when im in a blimp

[roth888]

filthy riff

[adamrothraisdead]

You guys realize that this is a completely different song than the one Colbert sang, right?

[LoveStarOcean]

@adamrothraisdead This ones the one Colbert said he made famous "Charlene I'm right behind you" so technically Colbert sang it... just not that night lol

[adamrothraisdead]

@LoveStarOcean That's not what he meant...He was making a joke referring to the fact that the song he did was a follow up to this song.

[jamieelynnx]

.. i think people are taking stephen doing all this song stuff way too seriously.

[InvisibleChicken999]

stephen Colbert's is Comedy This version is Music.

[justmauiful]

you all make me sick i love the stephen version wayyy better

[bluesclues007]

I still prefer the original by Colbert. I happen to like his singing voice, albeit the once he had when he sang the original and not his voice now that sounds aged.

[clawrence14000]

But that was Comedy, Steven sing the song and saying it was his, that was funny...

[SeventhSwell]

"No Copyright Infringement Intended" That's nice and all but you could at least add a link to where we can buy it. Unfortunately, we can't post links in comments but the vinyl single is at thirdmanrecords and digital download is on iTunes.

Sure wish it was available somewhere other than iTunes as well. I want to support them but I haven't had a record player in a long time and I don't do iTunes.

[SeventhSwell]

If ever a song, joke song or not, needed to be longer it's this one. Sounds awesome. Ends way too soon.

[ZoroastreDante]

is it just me or the one the left looks fourteen and the one on the right looks just like Joey Ramone... the song's actually pretty good

[kilgore9096]

GOOD SONG.

[dragonclam1]

Im getting flashes of michael jackson haveing sex with the girl from the ring and haveing a child thats STANDING BEHIND ME!

[ac1dchr15t]

COLBERT BUUUUMP

[FloridaAnxiety]

Just doing my job Colbert Bumping all The black Belles videos....

[marktwist]

songs too short...



[psychicpsycho]

@marktwist I agree, I was hunting for the "full" version before I realized this was it. Sad, I wish there was more. :(

[loyalstonecutter]

Enjoy your Colbert Bump, gals! You rock! And this version kicks ass! I love these ladies! But nothing will ever top the original Stephen and The Colberts version. That video is so f'n funny, it never gets old no matter how many times I watch it. Stephens dance moves get me every time. The way he moves his neck. lol

[SirianAlien]

This is a genuinely good song when sung by the Belles. And they look great in suits!

[DonFormica]

This was the best part of the whole Report. I agree the Belles sing it better that Stephen but is beats him singing "Friday"

[kcscott728]

The Colbert version is real meh. But damn, this B side track rocks. wish they had done the whole song instead of a 90 second sample

[SaitoEnzan]

@kcscott728 The original was shorter, though.

[brutonello92]

Finally a badass all lady band.

[evan5991]

Despite the goofyness, I actually like this song and this band.

Stephen Colbert however, should stick to comedy.

[NightmareLoveForever]

@evan5991 Stephen is actually REALLY good at singing... just not this kind of style.

He's in a broadway show, I forgot the name, but he's really good. :)

[criticman123]

@evan5991 treason

[UniversalPotentate]

After critical analysis of both the original Stephen Colbert version and this stand alone remake performed solely by the Black Belles, I have rendered the following decision.

I must concur with mastergfbspr and drumguy2007: this does in fact fucking rock and rocks so hard that it is superior in both vocals and accompaniment than the original Stephen T. Colbert version.

[Shaggis709]

Really liking their sound!. TMR has got a good thing going

[mastergfbspr]

this fucking rocks

[drumguy2007]

Despite my love for Stephen it is a much better song when they sing it.

[tommyt1971]

@drumguy2007 Yup, I bought their vers instead of the one w/Colbert... just wish the song itself was about twice as long.

[Queenartep]

@drumguy2007 :-)
