@FredDude27 Thank you! I was almost certain it was him but no one in the comments seemed to talk about the fact that the great George Martin was in the recording booth with Jim Carrey of all people. Thanks for the heads up on that record, I gotta find it online somewhere!
@MrXbomb Jim Carrey is one of my favorite actors and I loved to see him do this, but I thought he could have done it better. I should have expanded on my opinion but I didn't feel like it.
@Shinerman2 Whoa there goes that comments again. C'mon, just listen to it and if you enjoyed then simply say 'I enjoyed this.' but if you enjoyed this very much then say 'i enjoy this very much.' no need for the better than the original thing. its kinda rotten thing to say. Dont get mad (:
Jim Carrey should just consider starting a rock group. As he's comedic talents are seriously washed up. His latest films range from "meh", to "stinking pile of shit". A great singer, though, indeed.
Considering that I am the Walrus was most likely written under drug influence, Jim Carrey probably grasps it in the best way possible: an insane man without the need for drugs to exhibit insanity. Simply brilliant. Should have been in the movie Across the Universe instead of Bono.
@oshomroni ACTUALLY John Lennon wrote this song because someone wrote him a letter saying their professor was making them translate Beatles songs as curriculum. SO he said "fuck that shit, let's write the most nonsensical song ever!" But yeah this is awesome!
Love ths guy - soooo over the top - I hope the living BeatLes...Paul and Ringo... get some fun from this one too ! has anyone ever doemn this song wow, a big one but Jim Carrey did it, give him credit, it sounds awesOme
Paul McCartney sang each of the orchestral parts to Martin. Then George M scored them out for him. Man, just to be in that room with that kind of talent.
I think that Carrey missed a career as a singer. Not terrible.
@marvinthefatty396 They're not making fun of it.I mean it's a silly song-don't pretend you have an idea of it's meaning lol.And Jim Carrey is a very silly person so it worked out great.Can't take music too seriously :P
They should have completely cast him for the Across the Universe movie instead of Bono. Bono sang it nice, but Carrey completely, absolutely got the psychedelic, psychotic, insane feeling of I am the Walrus.
@ericoulthwaite do you know how to do it? can you be a little more especific? Because I tried playing with those but I can't get the effect right or even close...
I always like to hear an American singing 'knickers!' It always makes me laugh. This is pretty damn good though. He's got a strong voice. And it's a great old song.
am i the only one that thinks he sings better than the beatles , i mean who are people kidding when they say they like the beetles .... theyre shocking
@TheLeoOfCostaRica i meant... who are you to underrate his performance in that way? like believing you are the big cock... have you any musical talent or achievement ?
...So I'm not allowed to have an opinion on something just because I'm not a famous musician?
Excuse me, then. This is the most amazing thing I've seen in my life. It changed me. My eyes aren't worthy of looking upon this magnificent piece of art. Thank you, Jesus.
...Am I doing this right? Or would you rather have me get a career in music so I can give you my real opinion?
@TheLeoOfCostaRica Of course you can... but say "This is crap"...or whatever... But "surprisingly decent"... is too much....too snob... dont you think?
Not really, to be honest. I DO think it's surprisingly decent, and that's why I wrote it.
Are you telling me that it's not well-founded? Did I just have to assume that Jim Carrey would do a good job singing a Beatles' song before watching the video? Is that just common knowledge that I was not aware of?
Because "surprisingly decent" means that I wasn't expecting a comedian like Carrey to do a good rendition of this, I DOESN'T mean that I could make a better cover.
@TheLeoOfCostaRica "surprisingly decent" sounds like "Jim Carrey singing beatles is supposed to be a crap, but... is surprisingly decent". It´s a prejudgement. Why a decent performance by him has to be a surprise? His voice is very well trained, more than many singers around there... Thats why your opinion sounds to me like you have to be talented or able to do that to say that...
