lovely. *promote


I appreciate the promote very much! Believe it or not this guy just finished painting my house [I'm putting it on the market for sale next week]. He is obviously multifaceted =o)

Many thanks! I only ever heard the instrumental medley clip from the "Fall from Grace" release, I didn't know this existed. I always wanted to master the melody on the guitar or piano, I love the way it flows. Thanks again.

How about showing us "Rocky Road to Dublin" now? The Pogues do a great instrumental version of it.

I thought you might have an interest in the beginning of this video

I upvoted under the assumption that he was singing that himself -- but either A) he's really good at mimicking Mercury's voice, or B) he's really good at lip-synching it; so arguably either way is worth the upvote...

There are a few things that to me suggest that it might be faked though:
1) First, to my ear it is just so spot on that it seems almost unbelievable.
2) I'm not a huge Queen fan, so I can't compare in my memory to the studio recording of that song -- but again it sounds very "studio perfect" to me. I'd definitely trust the judgement of a Queen fan over my own on that though.
3) It would take some work to get a high quality (non-MIDI) recording of all of the song's tracks *minus* the vocal line (but including the backup vocals) for him to sing along to (ie. a karaoke version).
4) If you are *that* good, I think that you'd be likely to alter the lyrics slightly and/or mix up a medley that switches songs on the fly to show that you aren't just lip-synching. I don't know the original song well enough to say for certain that he isn't doing the first part of that, but it definitely isn't a medley.

Anyway, I don't want to be the "FAKE!" / "I've seen lots of Photoshops in my time...I can tell by the pixels" dude, but it does seem possible on this one. Enjoyed watching though, and that is what matters.

***
edit - OK, I listened to the studio recording and there are enough small (tiny!) differences in a few areas that I'm tending to think that this is for real, and he just really is that good... Impressive!

Medley would sound much better with woodwinds, the piano is solid though.

No memorable songs, but I've caught a couple episodes from this last season on hulu... surprisingly hilarious. Last one I saw was 'The Blue and Gray' and I do recall laughing quite a bit.

So, it would seem that good songs in the Simpsons ended about when I stopped watching the Simpsons, what, 10 years ago or so? Because I knew all of those.
I wouldn't go so far as to say 'awesome impressions' however... but nice medley

I like the little visual performances done in this.

Just realised this looks like a medley of a few songs. Still great though!
