11 Yrs later but might help someone:

INSERT INTO schema.tableName (col1, col2,col3, col4, col5, col6, col7)
      SELECT col1, 
             col2,
             'Static value',
             CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
             'Anothe static value', 
             1, 
             (SELECT col7 FROM schema2.anotherTableName)
       FROM schema.tableX;

col1 & col2 come from the same select

col3, col5 are static strings

col4 is the current system time

col6 a Num value,

col7 from a select that returns one value.

NB: Ensure the select with multiple values comes at the beginning. This is MySQL
