Stephen And The Colberts Comes To Rock Band

Before becoming one of America's most respected and widely-recognized Xbox Live [http://www.comedycentral.com/colbertreport/index.jhtml] Gold subscribers.

The song, a near-staple of 80s new wave pop music, is a tribute to an ex-girlfriend and cousin of Colbert's, who he remained dedicated to despite the numerous restraining orders she had taken out against him. The track was the biggest hit single for the band, which featured Colbert on lead vocals and guitar.

There has been no word yet whether the song will be released over the PlayStation Network, but in the meantime, PS3 owners and other unfortunates who aren't Xbox Live Gold subscribers can get an earful (and eyeful) of the classic 80s track from Stephen and the Colberts via YouTube [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6yFBwGjAm0&eurl=http://news.filefront.com/stephen-colberts-charlene-now-available-on-rock-band-for-free/].

If you get it, it never, ever gets old. If you don't, I'm very sorry.

I find it to be quite entertaining, especially in election season.

That was really made in 1986?

Public Enemy #1 on the Fox Network? I'd purchase a copy for every manchild in the world for that alone.
