Awesome Impressions

Bob Dylan’s Hotline Bling

Jimmy Fallon dusts off his uncanny Bob Dylan impression to cover Drake’s transcendent hip hop single Hotline Bling to the tune of Positively 4th Street. The flowered hat is a nice touch, even though it looks awful on Jimmy.

1 Guy, 20 Singers

Hello x Green Day

Musician and vocal impressionist Anthony Vincent of Ten Second Songs fame turns in an unexpected cover version of Adele’s hit track Hello in the style of Green Day. At least it starts out as a Green Day track. By the end, it takes on a life of its own.

Wheel of Impressions: Seth MacFarlane

Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon and Seth MacFarlane square off in a battle to do the best vocal impressions paired up with everyday topics. It’s worth watching if only for the Bobcat Goldthwait bit.

The Human Saxophone

The Human Saxophone

Declan Feeney likes to play the saxophone. Except he doesn’t actually own one. Instead, he does some crazy stuff with his vocal chords to create an uncanny mock sax. Here, he plays a bit of The Pink Panther theme.

The Animal Sound Man

The Animal Sound Man

South African performer William Jafta forgoes celebrity impersonations, instead imitating the sounds of numerous animals, including birds, cats, dogs, goats and cows. But can he do a Lyrebird?

The Best Schwarzenegger

The Best Schwarzenegger

Every impressionist on the planet thinks they can do Arnold Schwarzenegger, but David Andrew Brent pulls off the best Arnie we’ve ever heard by exhibiting impressive restraint, rather than the Hans and Franz approach others have taken.

Never Had a Friend Like Him

Never Had a Friend Like Him

Actor Jamie Costa loves to impersonate his more popular colleagues. Here’s his compilation of Robin Williams impressions. As uncanny as these may seem, you’ll be even more impressed when you see his range. Good job, Patrick Swayze Jr.

(NSFW: Language) Brock Baker apes Lauren O’Brien’s viral impression video. He got a lot of them right, though we wish he kept the customary Schwarzenegger bit shorter. Also was that Jack Black or Marshall Eriksen?

Impressions in Traffic

Lauren O’Brien makes the most out of being stuck in traffic by impersonating celebrities. She nails Angelina Jolie’s look without any makeup or costume, mimics Taylor Swift without singing and mocks Kristen Stewart without talking.

Fallon & The Roots Cover U2

Fallon & The Roots Cover U2

U2 canceled its The Tonight Show appearance because of Bono’s injury. Jimmy Fallon and The Roots turned lemons into lemonade. Plus, by covering Desire, they probably spared the audience from hearing U2’s newer stuff.

SNL: McConaughey & Harrelson

SNL: McConaughey & Harrelson

While Johnny Depp is now that dude who plays weird characters, Matthew McConaughey is that dude who makes normal characters weird, as lampooned by Saturday Night Live and host Woody Harrelson. Unofficial mirror here.

The Imitation Game: Cumberbatch

The Imitation Game: Cumberbatch
