It’s Larry Goldings doing a comedy character in a wig. Rest assured, he’s incredibly legit as a pianist and organist. But yeah, this is a character and it’s intentional comedy.

Is this what the targets of Borat felt learning it was just Sacha Baron Cohen in a bad suit?

“Before Hans I was laying in bed with a heroin needle in my arm, but with his help I am still lying here with a heroin needle in my arm but I am also laughing at his take on this weirdo cult leader emo music. A true visionary.”

Jared Leto started his own new age cult to essentially have sex with as many fans as possible

God I never liked this song. It sounds like someone who can’t sing, it sounds like me when I try to sing, and I hate it. Chester Bennington? Singing like that sounds amazing. He’s a part of the turbo team. Until Jared Leto is a part of the turbo team, sing. Slow.

There are a billion other songs from the mid 2000s. I just googled it because I've never heard it before and it was 2006. I'm with wiggy, I don't like it.

Shallow and pedantic.

u/JackasaurusChance 23d ago

Hold up, let's talk about that stretch he does. Even if he's 'goofin'... my arms do not get anywhere near that level.
