Title: Jimmy Somerville surprises street musician
Post by: 64Guitars on November 21, 2013, 12:20:20 PM
This is pretty cool. A street musician in Berlin is being filmed singing a cover of "Smalltown Boy" by Bronski Beat, when along comes the original singer, Jimmy Somerville, walking his dog and he joins in on the vocals.

Oh this is so cool - sometimes they are staged, but this doesn't look staged to me. (JS - I used to work for a Pensions Company and Mark Knopfler was one of our clients - I also got to meet the infamous John Profumo - sorry I'm getting off-piste)
