Steve Carell, Stephen Colbert & Jon Stewart - Everybody's Talking 'Bout Sully

Night Of Too Many Stars 2010

Steve Carell, Stephen Colbert & Jon Stewart sings!

Comedians Stephen Colbert and Steve Carell put on a song-and-dance homage to the Hero of the Hudson that left us convinced that Sully's life could be a Busby Berkeley-style extravaganza that climaxes in an emergency water landing.

Backed by a seriously swivel-hipped, white-mustache-wearing chorus line, Colbert and Carell donned captain's hats and epaulets to sing, "Everybody's Talking 'Bout Sully," probably the only song we've ever heard with the line, "Suck it, geese!"

Billed as a "zeit-heist" by Colbert, it was really a smart sendup of dated pop culture, replete with references to "Joe the Plumber," "American Idol" contestant Sanjaya and an onstage cameo by Internet phenomenon Tay Zonday, who performed an excerpt of his weirdly hypnotic "Chocolate Rain."

But it was Sullenberger who got star treatment in the song. Even the night's emcee, Jon Stewart, got into the act when he joined Carell and Colbert for a little bit of "Make 'Em Laugh"-style choreography that involved giving one's mustache "a brush" from the "left to the right."
