Okay folks... This is ONE guy, Stevie Riks, and he does one of the best Bowie impressions I've ever seen. His Lennon is also pretty damn good. He performs everything. The music, the singing, the on-screen performance-- It's all him in a split screen. I doubt 99.99% of the people being jerks couldn't do 1/1000 what Riks can do, musically.

I was literally chilling in my garage when my HiFi reinstalled Fame into my head, then the sun briefly warmed me up as I went to piss behind the garage in the cold air. Thought to myself... it's time to go grab a cold beer to warm my hands up. Putting the remotes for the garage doors in the house near the reefer was brilliant. I never made it back outside. I pulled up the guitar tab and although I do have the song in iTunes, I opted to go with YouTunes instead. It paid off instantly when I saw this!! Loved it!! My turn.....

Nice one! It takes a while to grow on you, but then it really, really is funny! Even though the dude on the left doesn't look very much like Bowie, he beautifully displays all sorts of mannerisms, the unrelaxed uptight rocking, the flashes of "oh God, I don't want to be on stage" mixed with erratic moves and quick smiles. And the Lennon impression is simply... quite convincing. :) Military shirt, round glasses, rolled in lips, squeaking "Faaame!!!" May both gentlemen rest in peace!
