Stephen Colbert really wants his guests to be known with the Colbert Questionert, a series of rapid-fire questions that range from which is the best sandwich to the most used app on your phone to the one song you'd like to listen to for the rest of your life.

Keanu Reeves has done it. Jennifer Lawrence too. Bradley Cooper, Jon Stewart, Sandra Bullock. They're all now known.

And now, it's Grammy-winner and The Late Show musical director Jon Batiste's turn.

Things get immediately philosophical with Batiste's dont @ me argument for hot dogs being the best sandwich, but asking the winner of Album of the Year to pick just one song to hear for all time? Impossible.
