    A night after being celebrated by President Barack Obama, Al Green casually visited the Late Show With David Letterman.

    The soul legend – still sporting a rainbow-coloured ribbon and medal around his neck, and accompanied by Paul Shaffer and the CBS Orchestra – performed a pair of his greatest hits, “Tired of Being Alone” and “Let’s Stay Together,” two of Rolling Stone‘s 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

    David Letterman couldn’t contain himself after the performance, as he shrieked “Oh my God!” four times following, “Tired of Being Alone.”

    When Rolling Stone caught up with Tom Hanks at the Kennedy Center Honors, he talked about his love for Green’s music.

    “Look, I’m from Oakland, California, a funky town. And we had one of the greatest soul stations in the world, KIDA, Lucky 13. Al Green, ‘So Tired of Being Alone,’ ‘Let’s Stay Together,’ it goes on and on and on,” Hanks said, adding that he wasn’t familiar with Green’s gospel work but was looking forward to changing that. “When I get back to my laptop, I’m going to download. I want to be able to tell Al Green, ‘I’ve got all your records, including the gospel stuff.

    Sit back, relax, and let this soul master take you away with his lyrical genius!
