Ian McKellen reading "the raven"

[MoobieandKenken]

i liek it :DD

[KalronHelldragon]

Poor, badly done. Leave impersonations of Ian McKellan to Hunter Davis.

[NCKIUELT]

My God he just Killed an awesome poem!!! Why the hell would you do this haha

[robandrene]

dumbest thing ever....please turn away



[Folkwolf101]

Ass!

[221Storystuff]

Wow. I think your rhythm is a wee bit fast and mumbly at points, but I was surprised, you actually do a good impression! You speed up as you go along, but I didn't expect what I heard, it was quite good! Well done :)

[mujerado]

Isn't there anything on youtube that says "Ian McKellen" that really IS Ian McKellen? There should be a category for all these cheesy imitations so people wouldn't waste time on your misleading titles.

[kolakutusu]

creative... congats...

[nushla11]

wow

that is amazing

[JesusConvictScorpion]

well, i was prepared to be all pissed off by getting snookered...but this ain't half-bad...

[salukialan]

terrible

[moneymikerunsshit]

HAHA awesome

[poetryreincarnations]

Fantastic stuff How about sending me a few readings of great poems read in the voice of famous actors and I will have a go at animating them.

Kind Regards

You have a convert I have subscribed

Jim Clark poetryreincarnations at youtube

[Korpenlw]

this is misleading i hate you so much :D

[xTheRavensSorrowx]

Oh why couldnt you read it in your own voice, it would have been amazing

[SonOfIronHorse]

How about a little truth in advertising. You ain't Ian. Better title would be "Good Imitation of Ian McKellen reading..."

[blacktalonflyer]

Great! I have to agree that poem is insanely long to read aloud. Could you do Tolkien's reading of the ring verse? I have a feeling it would sound pretty good. :)

[arcanist9]

Nice work! 

[brittsamlane]

haha I read this poem last week I like you reading it hahaha XD

[KaslarProductions]

stop mumbling then it will be an excellent inpression

[AaronSmith0]

The simpsons!!!

[tusantshaq2]

If you can do the late Vincent Price performing the Raven, you will elevate yourself to new heights. Personally I think his voice is going to be extremely difficult to imitate. You can find a video of him performing the Raven in youtube.

[fauxsham]

why am I reminded of Jimmy Saville

[laurenjoannadear]

wow this is good.. =)

[teldiron]

Fly, you fools.

[psphackerowned]

its more gandalf than ian mckellen

[ThePain117]

I have always loved this poem and you doing this voice just made me love it even more. It's great, looks like you have bed hair though.

[loneone01]

this just made my day

[FunnyMan5432]

Nailed it!

[theTroyC]

Wow... EXCELLENT job sir!! I'm excessively impressed!

[SuperOxideDimutase]

very good for a 20 yo sounding like a 60 yo.

[dramaeco]

HMMM, good job, but i think you sound more like Christopher Lee.

[YourMovasGotaPenis]

Whats your name on twitter?

[sooper2dooper3]

I like your poem dude, you should try to get it published.

[NotDuncan]

All he has to do is change his name to Edgar Allen Poe and travel back to January 1845.

[theDrache]

I dont think you read the description or listened to the first part of the video. Edgar Allen Poe wrote that. Thats been published for probably four times your lifetime at least.

[bretmarsh]

@sooper2dooper3 this is one of the most famous poems ever written tard

[sent5blues]

try VIncent Price!

[dth2ht4wds]

INCREDIBLE THAT IS DO FUNNY

[allysbf]

how about achmed?

[flammingcarrot]

ahaha that's awesome! Ever thought of doing some Jack Nicholson and well... Christopher Walken? or even... Jeff Goldblum and well american accent actors and reenactments?

Dude you're awesome... I think you're as or more on point than Brandon Hardesty (artietsmitw) !

[matt9736]

i dont wont to get technical but its sir Ian McKellen love the vids

[thehatta555]

don't close ur mouth so much, some of it was garbled, but its still a very good impression

[AlaskanWickedFan]

LUFFF IT!

[cha5]

It sounds a little bit to me like

Gandalf smoked way too much of that old Shire weed and was

 as high as a kite.

[1993aidan1993]

Yeah XD but still good :)

[js262307]

HOLY CRAP!

That's fantastic!

[tfgoingwest]

this is more an impersonation of ian mckellen as gandalf than as himself

[megaboxxx]

jesus this is hillarious I just imagine that gay magneto helmet lmao!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BurntOfferings92]

this is awesome

[rherrick123]

This is hilarious.

[andantinowithaswager]

this is so awesome.

[xartag]

it gaved me goosebumps. class act

[BigAkitaSon]

Very nice

[MISANTHROPY647]

Awsome!

To me, both of them kinda sound the same, 'cept McKellen sounds evil.

[MISANTHROPY647]

And I'm always confusing Ian McKellen with Ian McDiarmid.

[jambereagle]

u should try a christopher walken 1?

[AlaskanWickedFan]

Amazing

[june061944]

doc brown would be hilarious, try to do the 1 point 25 jigawats scene

[PlutoEmmaloo]

that was great

try doing doc brown from back to the future

[wed59]

this is very amusing

[MarcGSiller]

Not bad at all !

But you changed your voice .

Try to put emotion in your normal voice then you can variate the hight of your voice and it sounds more like the realthing .

[herrmurvel]

You and beardyman are the top two people that I think is the most amusing of all!

[mapitux16]

Brilliant! why don't you try to perform Sir Anthony Hopkins?

[sgtn3wb]

nice dude agreeing with

crocidilemanxy austin powers great job btw

[etblanken15]

dude, that's amazing.

You need to go on Britain's Got Talent.

[sarkasmi83]

SO AGREED!

[crocidilemanxy]

do a austin powers voice that will prove that you will be really brilliant but im not saying that your not!keep up the good impressions

[Domytar]

ha ha he i bet sir ian would be amused by this

[ma01kcm]

Do some more impressions!

[alextags]

My friend, if you don't become famous, there truly is no justice in this world! Bold as this may be, I think you're more talented than McGowan. I hope you're already doing this professionally, and if you're not, do it right now. Go out into the street, put a hat on the floor and impress!

[finsmi]

Do it like vincent price and I will be impressed;)

[playornotplay]

gandolf is reading :D

[Graceanaitor]

Can u do... chicken from cow and chicken. I love that cartoon its awsum, and so are u.

[vampuricprincess]

I LOVE EDGAR ALLEN POE!!! you read it very well

[rajmm]

Hey subscribed to ya because you're amazing. But I was wondeing if you coulld do a Jack Nicholson impression. Thanks!!!

[AlicoBaba]

I think you should do some more batman, either the joker or even batman.

[charliebertram]

ur camera crap

[Andyguy69]

Must admit, I think this is brilliant.

well done.

[xoxdisenchantedxox]

i got an edgar allen poe poem book from the library for some reason for 'the raven' poem and it came with a cd so it would read it to you and the guy sounded EXACTLY like that. your insane

[hypyvgn]

*in total agreement with eddiespice!!!

[Eddiespice509]

hav u ever tried mimicking heath ledger's joker? u should take a crack at it.

[katrina33393]

haha thats great..have you done gandolf yet? you should no doubt you could pull it off

[mmalouff]

Not going to lie--you are super talented. I wish you the best of luck, keep pursuing it--performing is what you were made to do.

[WarborgCAWS]

Don't think I ever actually gotten around to telling you this, mate, but you're an amazing ímpressionist/impersonater, some of the best voice-work I've ever heard. Would it be possible for you to do me a personal favor with the Mckellen voice? Get back to me whenever you're able to, and keep doing these impressions, they're amazing.

[Samprzz]

You know, at some point, you're gonna sound a better version of every single person then the person itself! oO

[SamScissorhands]

I love this poem. Thanks so much for putting this up! Oh and the fact that it messed up on the picture just makes it more... surreal. It makes one realize how talented you really are. You should do a slideshow of pictures with your voice doing impressions for each sometime.

[FunkChicks08]

u av talent as i've sed on ur other vids talent is der n i think ur cute xxx

[jackp086]

what happened top your face

[urbanartuk]

not a clue mate haha

it did it on my napoleon dynamite and kip, and chris griffin impressions, its wierd

[jackp086]

so anyway r u goin to try out for britain gots talent

[urbanartuk]

i would, but thing is, I want a career as a professional actor known for their integrity, like jonny depp, and going on BGT (if I got through) would ruin my chances of that I feel, shame

[jackp086]

ok wat a shame u would go far in it

[sweet1as5sugaruk]

lol! i don't know who the person is who your trying to sound like but its funny, sounds like a cool voice xD

x

[FrodrickVFS]

love the raven. i have even memorized the first four paragraphs

[Chizpurfle52595]

you are a convincing old man, but you tend to swallow your words as mckellen since obviously it's an unnatural voice.

[urbanartuk]

I normally dont swallow, but this is the first time I have ever read the poem out loud, and the second time I have ever read it. The moments I swallow my voice is where I mess up the rhythm pattern or words that are written lol

I may make a better one soon :D

[Chizpurfle52595]

i shall look forward to it! ^-^

[waitnontheworld]

Haha! You're so entertaining. :] Well done.

[hedwig720]

HAHA! Brilliant!

[Jimmybobakanush]

wow!! thats awesome!

good job!

[LisaTheLovelyLeo]

Thats so awesome. You're AMAIZING!!

[FallingRedRose]

Hahahaha that's great.

I really hope you make it far.

And you really need to buy a new camera lol.

[IWalkOnBothFeet]

what's with the vid quality?

[urbanartuk]

not a clue, every now and again it does this on a video, its done it for my chris griffin one, and my napoleon and kip one... really annoying

[jdobluvrs]

that was awesome!!! :)

[AMomentWithMarky]

YOU SHALL NOT PASS!

I love this poem, your Sweeney & Jack ones of the best! I'm not half bad myself. I'm hoping to play Sweeney in my own directed musical in a year or so for my final major project for my acting course.

[xNefarious]

That's an interesting request, I must say.

Wonderful job, as always.

[luzdepp89]

OK... I have to say it again!!! I LOVE U!!! Congrats you're awesome!!!

[sumfight]

Dude, love your videos. You're so unique with your voices :) I wish you the best in your acting career and know you are gonna make it for sure :)

-Cody

[urbanartuk]

dunno what has happened to the video quality here, sometimes does this, hmmmm, odd
