“That Guy Sounds EXACTLY Like [Blank]!” A New Viral Trend?

Alan Cross 1 Comment

Two videos don’t make a trend, but I have to wonder if this is somethign that’ll catch on.  

First, there’s this Saskatchewan dude named Marc Martel who sings for a Christian group called downhere [sic].  Given his religious background (and his age), he probably doesn’t believe in reincarnation–but it is possible that he’s possessed by the spirit of Freddie Mercury.  Have a listen.

Next we have Javier Diaz from Santiago, Chile.  If Pearl Jam ever needs someone to sub in for Eddie…
