That’s some pedigree right there.

BTW, with or without a glowing jacket, this guy also rocked.

4 SomeguyinKorea October 18, 2007 at 3:48 pm: He almost made the Hof cry.
5 SomeguyinKorea October 18, 2007 at 3:50 pm: #3,

Darn, that’s good stuff. Thanks for the link.
6 The Western Confucian October 18, 2007 at 7:47 pm: I love it when a cover is better than the original, which was also great.
7 captbbq October 18, 2007 at 9:21 pm: He’s not that great… Hes good no doubt, better than 80% of the crap on the radio right now, but these guys are still over rating him. I can tell he likes Bob Marley…

At any rate Thoth Clearly has them all beat…

(I wouldn’t be surprised if he has some homosexual cult following by now…)
8 Brendon Carr October 19, 2007 at 12:00 pm: Sure, you can tell this kid likes reggae — so what? The story on him is the surprise of discovering a real talent through that show. That “Wow!” reaction shot on Hasselhoff was priceless. Everybody in America likes an underdog. Cas Haley is a sweet kid taking care of his young family by belting out those songs with his surprisingly strong voice and showmanship that belies his fat-dork appearance. He’ll get my ten bucks once his album is put together, that’s for sure.
9 Netizen Kim October 19, 2007 at 12:45 pm: What’s next? A Bob Marley rastafarian looking dude playing banjo music?
10 Robert Koehler October 19, 2007 at 1:08 pm: What’s next? A Bob Marley rastafarian looking dude playing banjo music?

I’d pay to see that.
