This is an awesome parody of the famous song from How the Grinch stole Christmas.

Too damn funny! :rotflmao:
Singer's voice sounds just like the guy for the original cartoon. Either got a great voice over guy, or the original reprized the role :D

No, Mr. Karloff passed away quite a long time ago.

Actually, the singer was Thurl Ravenscroft (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thurl_Ravenscroft), also the voice of Tony the Tiger.
However, he also died, but only six years ago.

The cover singer is really, really close, but you can tell the difference if you know the original well. Ravenscroft's voice was a bit deeper than this guy's.
But still funny either way.

I agree and the video was great...loved how he put in Newt Gingrich's face as the Grinch at the end.

Very, very funny. Thurl Ravenscroft is inimitable, but it's nonetheless well-parodied and funny.
