Tom Hiddleston Performs As Hank Williams Live

[@AdrianGruszka]

Tom Hiddleston killed it here! Fucking love him.

[@davidbergin6184]

You got that right! He's perfect for playing Hank Sr.

[@eyehatejosh1371]

+David Bergin i have to disagree. he has an ok singing voice, though it fails to do any justice to the moany voice Hank had in his music. Hanks voice was the embodiment of the blue feelings his music had, an Tom Hiddleson does the songs in way thats ok for a cover, but not in a way someone playing the role of Hank should be able to

[@davidbergin6184]

+EYEHATEJOSH And I've gotta disagree with you. While his singing voice doesn't fit Hank perfectly, his acting did. We aren't trying to create the perfect cover band, but to tell a story through film.

[@marinalynn1000]

I'm from Georgia and that accent is perfect, taking in to account he's English. Hank had a whine when he sang but Tom performance here is very good. Can't wait to see the film....

[@BlackWolflord]

That moment Loki made the Scarlet Witch dance.

[@quentindugger6588]

People can say what they want Tom did fantastic

[@caitstar4265]

Tom Hiddleston your a legend i love you :)

[@cre8tive1115]

Great job Mr. Hiddleston. Can't wait to see the movie!!

[@whatsinaname7076]

this is the first time in weeks he looks joyful. though he is so gracious, the conversations have been mostly about one saucy scene in crimson and the voracity of his fans; i think the bittersweet nature of fame is weighing on him.despite this movie being now put outside of award season, he seems to be appreciating the moment which must be a rarity with such a hectic life.

[@MisSA2112]

+whatsinaname I've noticed that too. I only recently learned his name (promoting HeforShe) a few months ago and in that time I noticed he went from really playful and warm to reserved and guarded and it's pretty sad. I can't blame him. Too many crazies and takers out there. I thought Loki was hilarious and layered but I didn't know anything about the actor. I watched some interviews and was surprised he's one of the most intellectual and kind hearted celebs of my generation...but seeing him so much less excited these days has been a sad. He seems like a great person, particularly for one who's found fame.

[@footballgirl1406]

watching this now I'm glad he seems to have found a way to combat the pressures of fame as he seems more joyful again in recent Ragnarok and Infinity War interviews

[@theresabrown8994]

Go Tom. You may not sound exactly like him but you aren't supposed to.

[@michellecox6988]

I love this so so much.... it would have been amazing to have been there in person for this.

[@_Muser23]

Omg! I've heard this song so many times in the Hubble 3D film and never knew it was by Hank Williams!! Haha. Awesome! Gosh darn, Tom, I love you.

[@OCD450]

He looks so much like him! Hard to sound like a legend

[@ViviWCLLFG]

Thank you for sharing this video. It is amazing to watch him on stage like that.

[@peemmz]

So entertaining. Wish I could have been in the audience, folks were having a good ol' time. Tom sounds good too, and he just kills the ascent. Yeah for him.

[@elizaheathen]

British people doing American southern accents is fucking entertaining

[@knut761]

+moiraine_damodred Only if they're English, it doesn't really work if they are Scottish or Welsh...and that comes from an American mind you (out of Virginia)

[@koltray8576]

Lol yep. Sounds feminine when it's to high

[@qreyscha]

moiraine_damodred Ikr. I'm working on my british ascent and it turn out so hard. And now, this ascent. OmMaGawd

[@boredweegie553]

@@knut761 well, THAT'S offensive to us.. what about james McAvoy? brilliant at accents.. Scottish people are sometimes better than English doing accents..

[@Lissybeth91]

2:01 "Acscuse me, you folks in the back, are you listenin' to me or hwhat?" In other news, I adore him.

[@MrTacoZombie]

Nice finally a longer version

[@BrandiV]

It's funny that he said 'Size Matters' because I couldn't stop staring at his lap for the entirety of this video.

[@Terinka14]

+Brandi V Gosh me too. I don't understand if he does this on purpose, or what - I mean, I have seen this one particular blog that focuses on his crotch (yes :D) and he has been wearing trousers that ... highlight his crotch a lot ... more like all the time. He must do that on purpose. He wants to torment the ladies out there that will never even meet him in real live ever. :( (aka me)

[@BrandiV]

+Terinka14 I demand that you tell me where this blog is! As an aside, have you seen the new Tarzan stills of Alexander SkarsGOD?

[@Terinka14]

***** I have seen the trailer... it seems a little bit too dark for me, + it kinda misses the soundtrack from Phill Collins :D but I must admit for being almost forty (and also he could actually be my father) he is fit as hell. The blog is lokismonstercrotch.tumblr.com :D Enjoy :D

[@writerchick10]

whatsinaname, you've missed a lot if you think this is the first time Tom's looked joyful in weeks. I'd say he's had a very good time promoting all three films, & yes some interviewers have asked about his nude scene & poked fun at him about his fans, but he's held his own & clearly had an enjoyable time doing a part of the job that isn't always fun for an actor.

[@sunshinesun2716]

I can watch this all day! :)

[@violetsage4591]

His live performance is great for one who is not a professional singer.

[@Clau-ge7mi]

Hace de todo, es gran actor, es simpático, bello, buena gente, encima canta!! noooo noo como lo amo!!!!

[@mibalihai]

I'm craving crawfish, jambalaya and gumbo now...Didn't think a Brit could evoke those cravings but it's Tom Hiddleston people! ❤️

[@Amberlyee91]

Love Hiddles, love Hank. Really looking forward to this movie, but it is weird to not here that infamous Hank twang.

[@jenniferpruitt6534]

He was really good here....not too shabby for a European.

[@deborahgrabien3125]

I just puddled up and slid off the office chair. WHY was I not at this party, damn it?

[@BeckyMD26]

I actually love him. I can't deal

[@jadefire2817]

A lot of people said Hank William Sr. couldn't sing either. They thought he was too nasal, and too pitchy. The funny thing about a lot of really great singers is, it's not necessarily that they have "perfect" voices , it's the emotion they make you feel when they sing it. Charisma; some folks got it, and some folks just don't.

[@gilliankromer3427]

I love Tom so much.

[@Terinka14]

Oh god, I would listen to him singing my whole life... :) He is a keeper. And I kinda hate him for being so amazing at everything. I mean, he can dance, sing, play guitar, ride a horse, he went to fucking Eton (he knows fucking prince William), Cambridge, RADA, he has killer cheekbones....

[@ayeeeeeitsrachel]

this is the ONLY way i'll be able to listen to country music tbh

[@caesium_sky]

Sooooooo cute!!!

[@bettyjoegentry3028]

Evidently Hank 3 criticized Hiddleston for not being his grandfather. Hate to tell Hank3 but he isn't Hank Sr., either. Seriously, Hank knew his own limitations and he cared about his fans. If u ever get the chance, listen to HANK SR in THE APOLOGY. He recorded it apologising to his Washington D.C. fans for missing their show. He tried everything he could to get them to let him make the trip but the doctors refused because he had just had serious back surgery and could barely move. There is no doubting his sincerity and brings a serious lump in the throat of the toughest critic. Listen to it if u can find it...it will give u a better understanding of how the man lived.

[@bettyjoegentry3028]

Can anyone doubt this man's sincerity. This finally gives us an inkling of what he went thru his entire life with spina bifida before anyone even knew what his was. Southern men...especially during hard times like the Great Deprection pulled hard and worked long hours to support and take care of their families They started very young doing whatever they could do to help. I know, I had such a father and 1001 uncles and cousins. They also had little understanding of physical weakness. No doubt Hanks family was critical of him not pulling his weight and he was probably even more critical of himself. The fact that he turned to music came from his gospel roots. Everyone sang in Church come Sunday after a hard work week. Hank and the rest of the world was blessed and they didn't even know it for years to come. He had a very strong mother who was both a blessing and a curse ad was his wife Audrey. They were both selfish and pushy. They did care for him in their own way but he paid a big price for their help. The only thing that males Hank's story unique is the genius and fire for writing the truth. He had very little education but when he expressed his feelings ANYONE could understand them. He kicked musical butt and took no hostages!

[@Lip22Gloss]

this is so fucking cute I'm crying 😂😂😂

[@elyntuebon7729]

@whatsinaname couldn't have said it better myself. He just hasn't looked as happy lately, it's nice to see him enjoying himself again. I can't wait til the interviewers drop the creepy subjects finally

[@OCD450]

He may be the greatest actor along with Jeff Daniels

[@Cethical]

Nice performance. But not close to Williams' voice. Hey ho!

[@jasminkavujovic6065]

aye,that is true...he can make every woman to do,what he wants...

[@rhetiq9989]

Fear to the fact that this movie's going up against Batman V Superman next year folks! Hope Tom and Lizzie holds up

[@theblackdahlia88]

He doesn't have the perfect singing voice, but that accent is spot on.

[@peemmz]

+The_Howler Well I don't know what you mean about perfect singing voice cause Hank W. certainly didn't have that either. He may not sound just like Hank W. but his voice is alright otherwise. It sounded nicer when he sang in the Pixie Pirate Fairy movie where he's the voice of the pirate captain.

[@HillbillyBoogie1]

Hank Williams had the best singing voice ever...

[@theblackdahlia88]

peemmza When you're doing a biopic about a famous singer, you must have some similarity in voice quality, TWH doesn't have a similar voice to HW. He has a fine singing voice, definitely not the best, but a solid voice. Not comparative to Hank.

[@theblackdahlia88]

HillbillyBoogie1 Lets not get carried away.

[@peemmz]

The_Howler Yes I see what you mean. Their voices are not alike. TH seems to have a deep, lower range than HW. Rodney Crowell said he wanted TH to get the essence of the music down more than tweeking vocals to mimic HW voice. The director said he chose to emphasis the drama and story more than the vocal accuracy.

[@JasonUmbrellabird]

He's pitchy and can't yodel. I'll wait for the film.

[@theblackdahlia88]

+rugshort How do you know he can't yodel? Do you have an inside track to his voice training? or did you stalk him while he was prepping for the role?

[@JasonUmbrellabird]

The song he sang has a yodel and he didn't attempt it.

[@esthermuldur796]

[@JasonUmbrellabird]

That's very poor. He's not a good singer.

[@JasonUmbrellabird]

+Esther Muldur I wanted to like him, but don't think he can cut it.

[@MrJamestissot]

what can I say?tom don't deserve the next awards about 2017,after the la premiere of ISTL.......this awards is very,very,far......

[@Areukauf89]

It doesn't even sound remotely close to Hank Sr.

[@clash79]

Thanos was clearly not impressed

[@howardwatson3211]

Doesn't sound anything like Hank. Couldn't they get an American to portray Hank?

[@Areukauf89]

Jaqueen pheonix doing walk the line was good. this is terrible and not even close. Why in the hell would a British person play a American southern country singer. I can't believe some people in these comments think he's done a great job. Don't get me wrong he's a phenomenal actor but holy shit they butchered this his signing and accent isn't there not even close.

[@thathorsethatdrivesasherma7003]

I know he's trying, but he sounds like an awful impersinator. Brits should not portray American country singers.

[@harleyreid1554]

Fucking horrible. You can't beat Sr.

[@quentindugger5389]

Listen carefully. He sounds alot like Hank in many ways.
