Jim Carrey sings "I am the Walrus"

submitted by videosiftbannedme

...and its pretty darn good. Get this one on your iPod for sure.

From Wikipedia:
A performance of the song by actor and comedian Jim Carrey appears on George Martin's 1998 album In My Life. At the end of his version, he cries, "There, I did it! I've defiled a timeless piece of art! For my next trick I'll paint a clown face on the Mona Lisa, while using the Shroud of Turin as a drop cloth!"

It could use a better thumbnail, but I'm not versed on how to use the "findthumb" command.

fun album, goldie hawn is also very good on it

This album does have some great version on it.

It also has some very odd ones... Sean Connery speaking In My Life for instance.

But Carrey's Walrus is very good, very enjoyable indeed.

Heh. And I thought that I was the only person who had even heard of this strange album. George Martin could have had anybody in the whole world perform these songs for this album- his retirement gift to himself. Why Jim Carey, seriously? Sean Connery doing spoken word? Billy Connely? Too weird.

jim carrey: wad.

What's a wad? (Sorry, sitting at a desk in California so I have no idea what that means -- but I can say "dude" and even "duuuuuuuude".)
