Comedy parodies of my songs…
Channel: James Blunt
James Blunt talks to t5m about the different parody versions of his songs, his favourite being a routine by an Australian comic, “a guy called Tom Gleeson.”
Blunt says that “people always talk about the parodies for my songs, particularly You’re Beautiful.” The one most often talked about is by an American, Weird Al Yankovic, “a well known comedian who rips off other peoples songs and makes them amusing.” However, Blunt is unimpressed saying “I didn’t think his were the best.”
His favourite was by Tom Gleeson, who he says “just did something really funny.” During the act, Blunt says, “he plays my song You’re Beautiful as he’s on stage and he pretends to be the boyfriend of the girl on the Underground having to deal with this weird stalker Blunt singing to them.”
Ever the good sport, he recommends the parody to any t5m viewers with a penchant for comedy, and says “it’s really worth checking out, that’s online.”
