Denver, CO – Jimmy has gotten the itch to self-produce more lip sync videos, and one has paid off in major virality! His version of Screamin’ Jay Hawkins’ “I Put a Spell on You” received 100k views in less than a week, and it’s still going strong, thanks in part to being featured on Gawker.com, TheDailyWh.at, and BoingBoing.net! Jimmy is pleased as punch to get the extra attention. He’s made two more videos since. All the while, he’s enjoying his run this summer hosting and clowning in Cirque Innosta’s Verano.

Pisses me off that they took his most popular video down. This is why I have NO SYMPATHY for music companies.
Hey! I was a big fan of your “I Put a Spell on You” lip-sync video from 2012. You really nailed it! 😀 Shame about that copyright claim that got it pulled off YouTube! You’re probably already aware, but it’s irked me enough to Google around and find this page and leave you a note… There’s some weirdo on YouTube who re-uploaded a chopped version of your video in 2014, and has been using it to promote his personal site. He’s probably not the only case, just the only one I’ve seen, but I’ve reported this person at least a couple times and thought I’d let you know I think of your video from time to time and that it brought me a lot of joy! 😀 Take care!
