How many of you have a musician account on youtube? I realise that if you have a non-musician account on youtube, you can't switch anymore and will have to make a new account :(. Lately, youtube has established the new 'comedian' account, not that I care. But if you're a fan of 'funny' musicians, why not?

By the way, here are some new Victor Borge videos that were recently uploaded to youtube. They are hilarious!!!! :D :D :D ;D

(Inflationary Language)

One of my personal favourites. Victor Borge invents a new language that is to do with numbers and money.

(The Magic Flute)

Victor Borge succeeds in turning a famous opera into a musical comedy short. Watch as he does a few...special sounds to show the audiance the going- ons in a small act of Mozart's famous opera, which begins with a 45 minute intermission. ;D

(Page Turner)

Victor calls for help for someone toturn the pages for him, but apperantly the man that helped him has no idea how to read music! Hilarious! :D

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQ3kqNc-GJc
(Victor Borge and Leonid Hambro)

Victor Borge does a duet with his old friend Leonid Hambro, whom Victor apparantly forgets the name of at the beginning of the video. Bonus! Includes an exclusive 30 year old video on a duet (VB and LH) of Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto No1 (one of the pianos apper to be spolit, haha ;))

There are more but you can check them out yourself on youtube. Enjoy! (And don't forget to tell me if you have a musician's account)
