What's The Story On Some Guy Who Made A Funny Video Of Himself...
... singing and dancing to some Romanian pop song? I caught part of it on the Today show... but missed the important parts.

I'm sure I've got the details wrong... but that's the gist of it. Is there a link to this?

21. They Also Briefly Mentioned The "Star Wars Kid" Video...
... and how it took on a life of its own.

I swear, I need to get out more... this is OLD news for you guys, but I'm just hearing about it for the first time today. Sigh.

29. I'm just hearing about it too... and just saw the clip posted above...
but.... I don't get it. Whaaaaaaaaaaat? Someone lip-synching in front of their PC Cam... I truly don't see the humor, except for the first few yodeling lines, they were amusing.

30. His Facial Expressions (And The Spock-Eyebrow Thing)
were the funniest. (I'm reminded of my own carefree, mindless, and silly geek-antics when I was his age.) Plus, he's got an adorable smile.

He's a lot better than William Hung!!

31. Ok, true... I'm just not easily amused by lip-synching I guess...
Though the yodeling did make my laugh. (And William Hung did zero for me.)

34. I, On The Other Hand... Am Easily Entertained By Lip-Synching...
... and will even pay good money to bad drag-queens just because they had the nerve to parade around on stage and give it a shot.

6. I'm Unsure About The Lyrics. -- What I Do Recall Is...
... it was a very upbeat fast paced song. The young fellow in the video was in his late teens or early 20's... he looked to be about 40 pounds overweight... judging from his round-face and plump cheeks. His dancing was very uninhibited and energetic. His dramatic expressions were priceless.

8. I think this is the one.
And it's flash, too, so it loops over and over. Very evil.

9. I think it's the second one, at least that one matches the description...
and it's the same one that popped up in the lounge a couple of weeks ago. Awesome clip.

11. There We Go... THAT'S The ONE I Saw This Morning...
... the second one you linked to.

It's the same guy and the same version of the song... but the video at Ebaum's world seems to be slightly different than the one they showed on the Today show. --- The one on the Today show seemed to be video only... this one (your link) has still images inserted into the video.

But that's DEFINITELY the same guy!

Cute! -- He looks like he's having a BLAST!

THANK YOU!

36. The name of the comedy troop
Is Greenleaf People. The thing that amazed me about the vid is the audience knew the dance steps. :crazy: Think about it.
