As a follow up to the last post on Old Spice man's personally addressed videos, I present Merton a piano man who improvises for the unsuspecting chat partner. Some responded well, requesting songs, while others simply sat by the computer, allowing Merton to freestyle lyrics and piano accompaniment about them.
The video of course went viral. Merton was witty, quick with the lyrics and very like-able, with his odd turtle looks (glasses and hoody up). The videos were originally removed from youtube based on privacy issues, but are now back up.
He was so innovative and inspiring that musician Ben Folds did a tribute to Merton live in concert. There's something about being on the spot and creative that truly exhibits our ability to use our brains.
