And fine muscle control, too.

That is way to many levels of wrong there. And you know someone is going to ask what medical condition she has that would cause that talent. Oh wait, I just did.... nevermind....

I'm assuming that this is in fact accomplished by Clever Electronic Trickery rather than by the means implied, chiefly because the sound quality of the main audio track is just too good.

With that in mind, I count it Amusing & Deeply Weird rather than disturbing. If it's subsequently established that there is no Clever Electronic Trickery...okay, then it's disturbing. (Most particularly because, think of the hours of practice required....)

[filkertom.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's not even clever electronic trickery. It's obviously done with stooges at a backstage microphone. Doesn't mean it ain't funny.

[fair-witness.livejournal.com]

I gave her 10 out of 10 for showmanship. If she didn't sell it so well, it wouldn't be so funny.

[djonn]

With this I wholeheartedly agree.

Oh, sure, show us how the trick is done, why don'tcha. Hrmf.

[filkertom.livejournal.com]

Sorry, but I have great love for Penn & Teller. :)

Well, if you WANT to spill about your love life here, we can't stop you . . .

You know...it never even occured to me that it might be faked...largely because off-hand, I can think of three ways she could do exactly what seems to be doing!

You probably don't want to know how.

Eh. I might have thought it funny if it weren't headed "How Women Play The Kazoo" as opposed to "Check Out This Trick Kazoo Player" or similar.

Yah, that comic occurred to me, too.

[filkertom.livejournal.com]

I did think the title was damn odd, yes.

[chirosinger.livejournal.com]

Kinda makes me proud to be a kazoo player.

[james-the-evil1.livejournal.com]

Wow! What a talent!
Is anyone else thinking of "Gypsy"?
"I do it with a HORN!"

AAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's NOT RIGHT!!!

I can top that.

[kshandra]

Well, I can't. But Ursula Martinez can:



NSFW.

Re: I can top that.

[siliconshaman.livejournal.com]

I'd be more impressed if that was a rabbit trick...

Re: I can top that.

[jcw-da-dmg.livejournal.com]

It's not really all that difficult a trick.

But WHO CARES?

Re: I can top that.

[markbernstein.livejournal.com]

Nicely done. One very simple trick, surrounded by a whole lot of great showmanship.

"Ya gotta have a gimmick, if you wanna get ahead..."

Now that is the most... interesting... way I've ever seen anybody prove that the kerchief is not up their sleeve.

Re: I can top that.

[jcw-da-dmg.livejournal.com]

For some reason, she calls it "Hanky Panky".

Re: I can top that.

[connor-campbell.livejournal.com]

unfortunately, this got removed before i got to it...

Re: I can top that.

[kshandra]

A websearch on "Ursula Martinez hanky panky" should bring it up somewhere else, if you're curious.

Re: I can top that.

[jcw-da-dmg.livejournal.com]

I tried that, and the best I got was her website, which does not contain the video but does contain a pretty accurate description.

Re: I can top that.

[jcw-da-dmg.livejournal.com]

The sad thing is that because of YouTube's precious "terms of use" that adults are deprived of seeing this unique and fascinating performance; and that when one tries, all one sees is a REVIEW of said performance WHICH COMPLETELY MISSES THE POINT!

Re: I can top that.

[connor-campbell.livejournal.com]

hate to say it, but, even though the review may miss the point completely, it still describes what happens quite enough for me to know i'm not interested in watching any more. i didn't find what i saw funny, and i am glad there are some places out there that have these terms of use that i don't have to see such things. the review i saw listed a website where you could see the whole show, if one is so inclined. freedom to be able to watch such a thing is also freedom to NOT watch it, freedom to have sites where things of this nature can be seen is also freedom to have sites that do not allow things of this nature. this time, i'm siding with the ones that don't allow it.

The late M.Pujol must be turning in his.....

[saganth.livejournal.com]

We're told to sing from our diaphragms, but we have to play the kazoo from WHERE?!

[landley.livejournal.com]

Apparently her website is http://www.amy-g.com

Personally, I was more impressed by the video of her tap dancing in roller skates....

[kayshapero]

Does the word bleah mean anything to you? :)

[bluesmancd.livejournal.com]

*sniff* I suddenly feel... so... patriotic...

No wait, just gas, nevermind.

I gotta say it.....

"This one time at band camp....."

i'll be the party pooper...

[connor-campbell.livejournal.com]

i was only disturbed, and actually started reading the comments before it even got started very far...if she had used some other tune, i probably could have stomached it better, but that is the patriotic streak i grew up with...but even then, i don't think i would have called it funny. i've said it before as a joke, but this time i mean it: "that is just not right."
