Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly have recreated a classic Christmas duet, "The Little Drummer Boy," famously performed by Bing Crosby and David Bowie on Bing's 1977 Christmas TV special. Ferrell, as Bowie, and Reilly, as Crosby, really bring the Christmas spirit with this spoof/homage. What's so amazing about Ferrell and Reilly's rendition is the meticulous attention to detail: the outfits, dialogue, set, even the camera angles and facial expressions, have all been reproduced exactly (with one notable difference occurring at the end of the new version).
For maximum effect, watch the two videos back-to-back below. Happy holidays from Hooksexup!

I was half-convinced they were going to kiss in the original, and very disappointed when that didn't happen in the parody xD Just look at how Bowie is eyeing Crosby!
I played them simultaneously and it was awesome....as a quartet they are just "marvelous" :)
