"Skyfall" covered by Paul F. Tompkins

[@BylliPierce]

Why is this not titled "SkyPaul"?

[@Lsone350]

Hahahaha, I had to show my appreciation for this comment

[@seandalziel7414]

That... is actually better.

[@BanThisChannel]

To my knowledge, he's the best showman in the universe.

[@Popebug]

***** He does have the honour of being the best-dressed man in comedy and has probably appeared in every podcast ever (at least that's what it feels like), that counts for something.

[@EGOS42]

I'm not disputing it but Billy Joel can give him a run for his money.

[@gornabyjones6113]

I agree one million percent

[@EmeraldLavigne]

@@EGOS42 Billy Joel is a talentless hack.

[@scottmorwitz2753]

I’ve got to give best to Martin Short, Paul is in the pantheon

[@JeffHobbs]

Love the moment when the audience stops laughing -- stunned, at how great this is.

[@mhutt333]

I thought this was going to be a parody (I guess so did the audience), instead Paul knocks it out of the park again with a straight cover! I love his 'How Soon Is Now' too.

[@karmayangzom5497]

The suit was the handshake; the comedy was the pitch; and the song sealed the deal. What a mighty good man. ❤️

[@losnickes]

I would pay good money for an album of PFT covers.

[@gamertherapyconsoleyoursel5804]

Same.

[@Noura-bv9pv]

Lets make this happen

[@tolbydamit]

Only songs by Lord, Sir Andrew Lloyd Weber.

@@tolbydamit and Cake Boss

[@EmeraldLavigne]

@@garrybarry4286 yes yes yes yes this is literally his best character/bit ever! I thought I was the only one who remembered that.

[@Popebug]

The best part is that as a viewer, I'm prepared to just laugh at a comedian singing a famous song, but then it turns out PFT actually has some really nice pipes, and it's sincerely pretty good.

[@TomSmith-jp1es]

Shit

[@EmeraldLavigne]

He's a "belter" in the way that Christopher Walken is a "hoofer" lol

[@knute321]

I had the privilege of seeing this show live. It was amazing. I have had this song stuck in my head for weeks.

[@amberpaigejames9054]

Omg I LOVE Paul and Janie! Came here after the Stay F Homekins podcast!

[@fncrazy101]

Me too

[@meeprific]

Same!

[@kittyinabix9737]

Same

[@metacob]

As Janie said - ya killed! Wish there was a video of his impromptu performance too!

[@footofjuniper8212]

Wow. And here I thought he was just hilarious, devilishly handsome and seemed to look younger as he aged. Had no idea he could sing like that! Bravo!

[@ajdc88]

ive been watching this vid about once a week for the last two years

[@spinnwebe_]

Man I am glad I am not the only one

[@simonjenkin]

saaaame

[@horatioguevara7597]

I prefer the space oddity one

[@99fetusfajitas85]

It's pretty great

[@spensert4933]

I had to convert it to MP3 I must have it everywhere!

[@mollyherself]

9 years later and stays in my rotation. ❤️

[@dianapevtsov]

:)

[@kinja73]

How have I been enjoying the comedic stylings of PFT for nearly a decade and just now be learning he can legitimately sing?

[@EmeraldLavigne]

He's a bit of a singer in the same way that Christopher Walken is a bit of a hoofer

[@stephenryan1912]

PFT: The Greatest Showman On Earth.

[@Jasmine-mh3kf]

He totally crushed this. But he's also dressed like Bert from Mary Poppins lol

[@51516]

Everytime I hear this rendition, my eyes light up like some Irish guy!

[@spinnwebe_]

Checked in for my bi-annual viewing of this, and once again the beauty of it brought me to tears. Thanks PFT

[@spinnwebe_]

I came back to this and saw my own comment and thought, “brought me to tears? That seems a bit much” and then watched it again and guess what

[@suckerpunch90]

the definitive recording.

[@SteveGeary52]

Just when I thought I couldn't think more highly of Paul F. Tompkins than I already do...I am stunned and giddy. Thank you, Paul F. Tompkins. Thank you.

[@SonomaGrey]

Literal chills 👏👏👏

[@zagmazmatron]

A man out of time. He would be a successful showman in any time period.

[@ASoftSkeleton]

i think i've listened to this version 100x more than the original

[@vicdmise]

GodDAMMIT, sir! I salute you!

[@musicbylen341]

One of the truly best "comedic" performances of the past decade. I still have not heard the original, but know that I will be disappointed when I do. PFT is the friggin' best. (period.) so there!! musicbylen

[@CorpseGrin]

Well done. PFT is a Genius.

[@cmessing13]

I never get sick of this; every time through, I just love it more.

[@jenniferjackson4727]

[@SirThirdFilms]

No idea why but I've had an extremely emotional reaction to this. The joy is fantastic and the tears are proof

[@halloroo1]

just a little in love with PFT

[@queenmother123]

awww I didn't know he could sing! This is one talented dude.

[@TheHerpdaderpdaderp]

I’m so glad Paul talked about this on Stay F Homekins so I can experience this for the first time and let me just say, Paul is much too humble about this performance because he slayed like an absolute QUEEN. You and your wife are wonderful people and always brighten my day when I hear you guys laughing together and telling stories. Even when the quarantine is over, I hope you guys will continue releasing content together! I remember hearing you say on one episode that you feel like you won’t have enough content for both Stay F Homekins and Threedom and I assume that’s because you don’t want to be retelling the same stories or conversations, but honestly I think most listeners wouldn’t mind. You can tell me the same story multiple times and I’ll pretend to act surprised like it’s the first time because I love the way you tell stories regardless lol. I hope one day I’m lucky enough to meet you in person but I’m afraid of what awful chain of events would ever lead to you being in Louisiana in the first place, but hey fingers crossed 🤞

[@mtbra9435]

Which episode?

[@EmeraldLavigne]

Lol I remember thinking that quarantine would actually end

[@deeyoyo1]

WHAT I DIDN'T KNOW HE COULD SING THIS IS AMAZIG

[@Ix7VickxI]

I genuinely don't know why the audience is laughing as if it's some hilarious rendition. He's just singing Skyfall and absolutely nailing it.

[@songbird1163]

According to the description, the audience was expecting him to sing "Danny Boy," as he announced he was about to.

[@Ps35176]

Kinda wish they'd stop laughing so I can better hear him sing.

[@dpaul428]

They’re laughing as the band comes out- that gradually it turns out that this is a huge elaborate production

[@hazzxzz]

Yes. Yes yes yes yes yes yes YES! This is the most hilariously awesome male being in the universe! 😂😂😂 Beyond Belief brought me here...and the Pod F. Tompkast, of course

[@jeremcclain]

PFT- you are my favorite person.

[@themarsvoltafan1215]

The thing paul f tompkins shows is that the crowd laughs at him not making any jokes...but he's still one of my favourite comedians ever and this a great cover

[@no_one_of_that_name_here]

Still love this

[@Crobama]

I can't imagine a day when I don't watch this at least 575,765 times.

[@Jennifuffle]

I so love that I've now seen video of both halves of Frank & Sadie doing Bond themes at Largo. This is brilliant.

[@jenniferjackson4727]

Ssww

[@musicbylen341]

Still one of my favorite things. Paul F. Tompkins and Eban Schletter made this historically funny and genuinely fun performance. When I finally rented the movie (Skyfall) I had youtube running on the home theater during the opening credits and it was flawless. #Brilliant

[@ConspiracyStuff]

Fantastic. Just fantastic.

[@bbmcrae]

I'm with you. I think the laughter is just the delight and surprise at a full-on straight presentation of the song. So, "funny" in the sense of surprising and delightful. Plus, that extraordinary suit.

[@lentilstew]

I've honestly watched or listened to this ~30 times. It is currently my favorite thing.

[@mssaraprek]

I was feeling really crappy but this really cheered me up.

[@zombiwaru]

I have never listened to the original in full. My heart craves this majesty.

[@86_Bullnose]

This is awesome Pail F. Tompkins is the only guy who could sing something seriously and have it be hilarious and make a carnival barker suit look so very good.

[@knute321]

It was my first time seeing Paul live, so when he said he was going to close with "Danny Boy" I was a bit befuddled. Great performance! Total surprise. PS - I am going to The Tam O'Shanter next year at Christmas. The carolers scared me off circa 2005 and I have never returned!

[@josieskocik632]

I would buy an album of PFT singing covers. Or originals, actually. Found this to be more enjoyable than Seth McFarlane's cover album.

[@KrystalLake]

Right?!? I was just thinking that as much as I love him as a comedian, I would absolutely buy a non-comedy album of Paul just singing. The man is an amazing talent.

[@EmeraldLavigne]

He's like Matt Beary, everyone presumes because of his comedic chops that he's always gonna do a bit, but Matt is a phenomenally skilled singer, too, and has put out at least one album that's just him singing.

[@gamingwildlife]

This is amazing.

[@annangel4828]

Ok. So I'm only a decade late and I've said it before ... PFT: NATIONAL TREASURE!

[@gamertherapyconsoleyoursel5804]

So amazing. I forget about this song and Facebook reminds me once a year. I love it! Let me just echo what others have said, I would ABSOLUTELY buy an album full of Paul F. Thompkins covering songs. Beautiful voice.

[@ifyoubuildittheywillcome]

Came here because of an episode of "Tell Me Everything" hosted by Liam Gareau. I had heard PFT sing parts of Skyfall over the years, but never knew this existed...I loved it, I'd like it again if I could.

[@DavidClay]

Why didn't I know he had such a great voice? Simply awesome!

[@lentilstew]

Had to come back and watch this again. One of my favorite performances, period.

[@Stiffatronic]

this now makes sitting though all of "Skyfall", worth it...

[@AlexGoldberger]

I couldn't have even hummed the tune of this song after seeing Skyfall, and yet somehow this version has become ingrained into my mind to the point of obsession. Such is the power of PFT.

[@arch1ve]

Incredible. Absolutely incredible. What a showman.

[@catherinesweet]

I can't stop watching this. PFT FTW.

[@kiwimass]

I've never heard him sing before. He's really good. Love the suit.

[@elvispanda]

This is the best thing on KZbin.

[@PravNJ]

Thank you John Hodgeman and Paul F. Tompkins!

[@brads6520]

I just gave this a standing ovation.

[@kaine2104]

I love you Paul, that was so fantastic!

[@Crobama]

This is perfection on every level, people. Standing ovation.

[@claregomez8850]

holy shit, this is majestic

[@trashleigh87]

You got a very pretty voice Paul

[@Popebug]

I support this. After all, the man has plenty of time travel and monster fighting experience.

[@TEB2010]

Read a story about Skyfall, made me have to come back and hear this again. Superb.

[@mshaikh]

The most pleasant and calming singing voice I've ever heard.

[@hidetheweeeed]

Beautiful version of an amazing song!

[@badmovebaker]

This is showmanship.

[@jonhammfan]

I can't stop looping this. WHY? I love it so much! I have heard this at least 20 times now, and I have heard Adele's just 3 times.

[@dustingraham7175]

Love you Paul. That was incredible!

[@wileykylie76]

I enjoy this unironically.

[@meowvelous13]

He is perfect.

[@sllimjimsinkhole]

One of the best things I've ever seen.

WONDERMOUS

[@wubbster]

So awesome...

[@noizyme]

Amazing. Always the consummate entertainer!

[@darryldouglas6004]

Nailed it in a way that would make the most expert of carpenters envious.

[@crazyskull12]

Wow. I can't get over how great this is.

[@Sifeus]

Hey, paul. Ya nailed it.

[@getogatocat]

[@wannabefilmmaker]

멋있어요!

[@josephjurecki694]

You once again amaze me sir.

[@kerryarrant]

The man is awesome. Love the suit.

[@trashleigh87]

What a talent!

[@AFchris77]

This is awesome and hilarious lol. Love the band and dancers, Paul crushed it. There's a KZbinr named Charlotte Foley who rocked The Writings on the Wall and I bet Paul could sing a redeeming version too. Bravo sir!

[@fncrazy101]

Absolutely amazing!

[@Technodreamer]

Good golly. That's a beautiful set of pipes!

[@BountyHunterRPG]

Should have been at the Oscars.

[@happyjoelmosslevinson]

Wow! Your voice sounds great!!

[@rtenenbaum]

I love this, and I love that suit.

[@maximumwangchung]

The funny part is how incredibly awesome this guy is and how you will never be anywhere near as cool as him.
