I’m not crying, you’re crying.
Okay, maybe the link is showing up in the BB post for people with a facebook app or facebook logged-in, but for the rest of us it’s not there. Since I wanted to hear this, I looked up Stefan Murphy’s facebook page. It won’t let me link directly to the post - I can copy the link but it just shows up as a blank space like it does in the Boing Boing post - but for now it’s the first post in the main timeline (Posts, not Videos).
It’s 100% worth the listen, despite being on a nightmare of a site to use.
Quite the set of pipes on that guy.
Works really well!
Wonderful!
My father (RIP) used to have a rendition of the TMNT themesong, with his personal flair thrown in. And his Ronnie Drew voice was spot on.
“Oh the teenage, mutant ninja, he-EEE-ro turtles”
The embedded video on the BB article currently has the wrong proportions; most of the time the face of the singer is out of frame. Here’s a direct link and also embedded below. https://www.facebook.com/524480673/videos/10157760674940674/
The explanation offered by the singer at the end adds immeasurably to the video.
Now let’s hear Will Smith do “Danny Boy.”
This immediately took me back to hearing “Crooked Jack” on every live music night at my bar of choice in my first term of university.
When I try to watch the embedded video on the page on Safari, it asks for location permission, if I don’t give it, it just reloads the page. I can get it to play by neither Allowing/Denying permission and just leaving the dialog on the page.
Not that Will Smith…
