Lewis Capaldi busking in Glasgow as fans blown away by singer's impromptu performance

Lewis Capaldi has stunned fans with an impromptu busking performance in Glasgow today. The West Lothian singer took to one of Buchanan Street in the city today for the surprise gig outside a Nespresso store.
Passers-by looked on in shock as Lewis shouted: “I’m not Lewis Capaldi. I’m just someone else. Just a really good impersonator."

Lewis is a great reminder to never take ourselves too seriously. Just have fun! He is such a funny guy and very down to earth. Love him to bits. Whenever this old crazy world gets me down, I listen to any of Lewis Capaldi's interviews.

[@lesleys3751]

Really enjoyed his music for a while now and never realised he was so down to earth. Seems a truly lovely gent with an amazing voice!

[@brendadrumm9451]

Not being disrespectful for a minute i thought it was liz truss

[@Just-Tony]

It's great seeing big stars busking, getting back to their roots... Busking is such a raw form of music, it's such an antidote to heavily produced mainstream records.

[@richardarmed4847]

It's a good job he can sing!!!

[@ginagotti8950]

Isn't Lewis just the gr8est !!! He is such a handsome fun lovin man I'm so gr8ful he is back he was truly missed so much 💗 💓 💖 ❤️ welcome back Lewis and keep on striving ur the best goin 💙 ❤️ 💖 ♥️ .
