It’s funny since a friend and I used this clip this weekend to convince a mutual friend of ours to check out Doctor Who and Torchwood.

Though as fun as this video is, it would’ve been a hoot to see him do the actual choreography. Haha.

He’s river-dancing?! to a Beyonce song?!

What was he gonna do next, The Robot?

The camera loves that man, and vice versa!

That song is so awful that I can’t watch anything with it playing. Beyonce is the epitome of talent squandered.
Sue me for being a downer.

Yo John, I’m happy for you, I’mma let you finish, but Elbow’s version of ‘Independent Women Part One’ is one of the greatest novelty Beyonce/Destiny’s Child covers ever!!!

What. the. hell. I agree, the original choreography would have been awesome — but I cracked up at the jazz hands.

I hang my head, because I don’t know who John Barrowman is. Although for my money, nothing beats the SNL version of Single Ladies with Beyonce, Justin Timberlake and Paul Rudd.

It’s ok, bats. I don’t know who he is either. I just hate that friggin song and can’t listen to it in ANY form, comedic or otherwise.

I kinda like this version though (the constant look of mild terror adds a certain something too)

(let’s play drive markyb nuts!)

Anyway, cute clip. I, for one, can’t believe it’s been so long since Pon De Replay that we need another one, but there you go. My knees aren’t what they used to be either.

Thanks Muzz, for that clip. The thing that made me love it was the singer announcing that she skips some lyrics because they are so bad *grin*
