It looks like something for Amensty International actually...

Much respect to Ibruglia for being able to laugh at herself.

ABSOLUTELY amazing. Very awesome video! Thanks for posting. (=

The best part about that song is imagining Natalie Imbruglia "lying naked on the floor".

Oh my god. This is so brilliant. I'll bet that the whole reason the Amnesty International folks did this was because they originally saw a video of this guy performing the Torn miming on the internet and thought how cool would it be to see it done in a real performance of the song. I lauled when Imbruglia began to do the moves with mime guy. That was so incredibly awesome.

And on a side note, I wish there was some sort of rating system for how awesome I thought it was. This would totally get a 'my top videos' rating, alongside Borat and his forcing a British interviewer to touch him on national television.

Anyway, awesome contribution. Thanks!

Yeah, the Secret Policeman's Ball was in aid of Amnesty International.
The majority of it was pretty dire.

Well, get your gold star, and then you can nominate it as a top hundred video of 2006. It was really good. I'm tempted to do it myself. I only have 2 left though. Must use them very sparingly ...

lauled? I've never seen an acronym verbified before.

*nominate

This is just too classic! The Awesome Mime Routine is the reason I actually joined the Sift. So this is very cool

This video has been nominated as a top video of 2006 (nominate called by gold star member farhad2000)

She looks very different from when she first came out with the song. Great sense of humor though.

Did anyone else see the time-space continuum bend or was it just me?

That's awesome!

awesome for sure... did you notice their air guitar works backward at the end?

*nominate

This video cannot be nominated by oohahh because it has already been nominated - sorry.

Wow. She got even prettier. *sigh*

Yeah, I was going to mention that too Deathcow, he slides the wrong way on his air-fretboard.

Noooooooooooo

Fantastic. Applause to Natalie I for her good humor and class.

Extraordinary ability to laugh at oneself shown by Ms. Imbruglia. Always liked this song , now it's funny too. Kudos to those who noticed the backwards air guitar licks.

Why are there two videos of this in the top sift? The other is http://www.videosift.com/video/Awesome-Mime-Routine, and has a higher vote count, though this one seems better. It just seems like duplicated source material is inappropriate.
