My thoughts are with John and his wife, Fiona, and his family. And everybody out there touched by this virus.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cI\u2019d like to share with you right now one of the happiest moments I\u2019ve had on my show or any show. And that\u2019s when John and I sung a duet in 2016 that we never broadcast, but we\u2019d like to now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the clip, filmed in the Ed Sullivan Theater, Colbert asks to duet with Prine and then notes, \u201cWe\u2019ll probably do this for the Internet. Unless, you know, something terrible happens and we have to cheer up the world on the TV show.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Prine was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/john-prine-covid-19-symptoms-974909\/\">hospitalized<\/a> earlier this week in \u201ccritical\u201d condition. His wife has since <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/john-prine-stable-hospitalization-975436\/\">updated fans<\/a> since that he is now in stable condition. A rep for Prine said that the singer \u201cremains in the ICU and is stable on the respirator,\u201d and confirmed that the musician tested positive for the coronavirus.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI need to clarify what I mean by \u2018John is stable,&#8217;\u201d the musician\u2019s wife wrote on Twitter. \u201cThat is not the same as improving. There is no cure for COVID-19. He needs our prayers and love \u2013 as do the thousands of others who are critically ill. Stay at home. Wash your hands.
