- Grimmy's been doing science. Sort of.
Two hours of prosthetics, a questionable fake accent and a beard saw Olly Actual Murs transformed into 'Frankie' the busker. Grimmy then sent him out to Covent Garden to see how much money Frankie could make... busking with his own songs!
Shows how hard these guys have really worked to make it to the top when they can barely get noticed when people assume they're a no one
X Factor is really hard work...
+James Wheeler Haha X-factor may not be hard work but I bet staying famous after it is, look how well the winners always do :L
shows the difference between being given success and working for it
Akala Shakur Olly Murs IS no one
*****
YEAH I SAID IT!! (lol jk he's not that bad)
when everyone in that group was dancing reminded me so much of the sims
Omg! I will tell my drama group that, we are bad dancers:L
le smustle, haha.
+Isi Barros The sims is probably more real though!
Lol
+Isi Barros that was fake they were in a random position. they should have been in front of the guy but i think the camera crew told them to move in order to film olly thats why they carried on dancing
The kids dancing in the background are me and my drama friends from college, can't believe Olly Murs was the busker, really had us fooled!!
Love that he started by sounding like a rough version of himself but by the end he was just full on Murs!
Fuck all difference
"Really drawing a crowd now" An old man and a woman with a pram
Caelan Magee irony lost on you buddy
🤣
Its a really good idea can't wait to see who else they get like Sam Smith or Jesse j would be funny because of their super powerful voice are so recognisable
or Ed Sheeran ?
I'd like to see Ed sheeran doing this. He'd get so much money he's amazing live:)
***** I know, thats why I think its gonna be interesting if Ed Sheeran do it again :)
Julia Berardini Ed sheeran would get noticed straight away, dude sings like an angel
mullallylally iiiiiii
That's my drama class and I dancing in the video, as if, we had no clue it was olly murs :) props to the makeup crew
Gabriel Njie think ur talkin pish
You must know beth then from the above comment 🤣🤪🙄
@@MMI5KS I do know Beth, had most classes with her for 2 years in College, she’s lovely
You can watch more acoustic videos from Olly here ua-cam.com/play/PLb_52Z27Z4LwxioZ-ZkgcICeEsdGlCS0-.html OllyHQ
HELLLOOOOOOOOOOO OLLY ooooooooo first c omment
6 years later and I’m the 2nd comment
@@lizziehorsler188 lol
I doubt ten random people showed up and started dancing, they were clearly hired by the BBC
I did that a couple of times.. they look like some tourists/exchange students..
they were students from halesowen college in the west midlands on a theatre trip. not hired at all.
Lizard Squad Just curios, how do you know hahaha?
You've clearly never been high.
Me too
If I was there I would have recognised him straight away. Olly is my favourite singer ever and my idol.
I listened to this on the radio this morning and was so excited to finally WATCH on UA-cam. Ahhhh :)))
Clarezy May hey :)))
He said on the radio that this was a 45 minute session, that's bloody good money.
Not really.
The12thRegeneration when minimum wage is £6.50/hr , that is good money pal !
As a busker myself, I believe I would know. 45 minutes busking can get you £70 or more. Thanks.
The12thRegeneration you must be awesome... yet still a busker
@tomographic Well, personally, because Olly is talented, I thought he would have made more money, and your comment is a bit aggressive, and I don't need a reality check. All I'm saying is that if your talented like Olly then £70 is the hourly wage. That's all! :)
Can't wait for the James Arthur one
well there you go. its been uploaded.
I am one of his two super fans :) the long haired one wearing the tie dye shirt
Yay Stan!!:)
Buskers sing in hopes of making money, being appreciated, being noticed and for the love of their music. I think you did well to have received from people who were in a hurry to get somewhere else but paused long enough to listen, enjoy and appreciate your voice.
A talent show is different because people are three to listen and are expecting a degree of talent, so some pressure but when you MAKE IT people expect you to be the best ALL of the time so much harder, much more pressure, much more work and much bigger expectations.
I love Olle Murs but truly appreciate all the buskers that make our sometimes boring day so delightful and entertaining. I wish there were more of them.
this from a boring grandma from Australia that loves ALL music but can’t sing a note so thankyou to Olle, thankyou for this upload and thankyou to all of the buskers out there, keep it up. 🥰
That lad deserves all the fame hes a real nice person with the public and a real super star. Olly we love you
They need to do more of these
Feels pretty great to know I make more money than Olly Murs busking
This was such a good idea and Olly got everyone dancing. CONGRATS OLLY 😜love you 😍 number 1 fan 😻😻😍😍
£19.50 will not get you two boxes of chips in London. lol
£11.70 for regular 😂
Really!?
I know!! Oh it was the best busking ever!!
Erm yeah it would... it's like 3 quid a bag
Go into Hackney, Tower Hamlets, Newham... Then you find what your looking for!
And it isn't £11 quid for a bag a chips no where near! lol
This is actually a very good experiment! :D ♡♥ This should be like a weekly thing! :D ♡♥
just goes to show what the power of marketing can do, great idea loved it ,nice 1 Olly
Omg yes! Olly in disguise and still able to pull a crowd! Love it!
Awh haha my mate Sam being completely oblivious with his 10p going to Olly Murs at 2:50
Well I loved this! Still has his beautiful voice and people didn't recognise it! Haha, those prosthetics really worked :)
Wow! That was amazing!! Olly looked to different but still had his beautiful voice ❤️
More artists need to make videos like this!
Monkeynutz AJS James Arthur one is coming up
The very last line of this video made me burst out laughing!
"Yeah, and I'll get my 15%" LOOOOOL
Please do some more of these!!! I loved it :)
He got people dancing more than once. That’s a lot more than many buskers get.
Something that people don’t take into consideration when doing these experiments is that buskers are there when passersby are already in the middle of doing something else; something that is not listening to a concert. Many times those passersby already are short on time because they have to get to work or have to get an errand done or are meeting someone, etc. When people go to a concert they have already carved out the time in their schedule for listening to music.
When I was younger and paid by the hour, there had been times I wanted to stop to listen to someone playing guitar or singing but I couldn’t afford to be late as it would have been taken out of my already meager pay check. Didn’t mean the person wasn’t talented and didn’t mean that I didn’t like what I heard. I just hadn’t budgeted the extra time for them on my lunch break (I would try to drop a bit of change in the “hat” if I could do it quickly though).
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS IDEA!
as a busker myself one thing i will say is you have good and bad days generally i will make between 15 and 30 quid a day sometimes i have made up to 70 quid in 4 hours and i have made a 5 after an entire day but I wouldn't give it up for the world. I busk because I enjoy entertaining people the money is just a way of keeping score ;)
Hahaha this was fab, can't wait to see more of this!
That was fantastic. Love it❤️
wow, most of the people were like "who is this crazy busker who can sing?", little did they
know that the top musical sensation-Olly Murs was in disguise! So epic
There are so many talented people on the streets, it makes me happy listening to them, I almost every time gave some coins to people playing :)
I am a new fan love this talented guy!
This is rad! Stoked for Never Been Better to drop this week.
Amazing! Please do more of these, in different locations so people are less likely to recognize the singers!
NEED MORE OF THESE!
OLLY OLLY OLLY OI OI OI!!!
Man if I saw someone that sounded like the artist I would check them head to toe and question them to see if it was them!!! #MursArmy
I need to see more of these!
uhhh..
i love him
so good! :)
Olly Murrs is a really good genuine guy. Top bloke!
❤️❤️❤️❤️Olly listen to him everyday he gets me n a good mood
wish they'd somehow reveal it was them at the end to see people's reactions 😟
Bad idea. Most likely they don't know who Olly is...that would be more embarrassing.
I can,t believe that they do not recognise his talking or singing voice. Unbelievable.
what I was just thinking....
Olly Murs your my favourite singer I sang dear darlin for my Xmas factor in school don't forget I love you
Haha Dan showed this on the radio show today 😄 very good video :)
Great Job!
his voice is everywhere here X)
Awesome haha! What a legend! :D
Thanks for the laughs :D
My mates from school are in this! They were on a school trip and my mate Sam is the first person to give him money!
Love it
Brilliant
the greatest underrated artist of all time
cool concept
we need more of these vids. like so they can see this!
what he said in the last seconds made me think...wow, i think cost of living in their country/city is high.
It sure is
I think he was joking a little bit there bud. London is expensive, sure, but in most of England a bag of chips will cost about a quid
*watches video* OHHHH I was in London the same day as Olly Mursss *is happy for the rest of the day*
so talent busker
When he claps at the start of dance with me tonight he looks demented
I got to say the disguise is very good. I won’t recognise him if I saw him singing in Covent Garden. Almost £20?! Well done mate!
Great disguise!
Crazy how people are oblivious.. Really need to do more of these with more famous's!
Rachel Kirby Hey Rachel :D
Grimmy is in the street and noone has noticed
I know! That is incredible!! 😄
Nobody cares,hes a donkey
I fucking hate the camp sounding twat
...weel , here's what I think. This guy has a good set of lungs, a real singing voice and lots of guts. If he would be lacking one of those three things he could nevere ever have done that kind of stunt - 'cause when you're singing on the pavement like this there's no echo, no tricks and gimnicks that can anhance your natural taent. So kudos to him.
The group dancing was definetely asked to be there...
Oooo! Niceee! Crowd was Lovin’ it! 😍❤️😂😘🌈😁🙏 xxx
Imagine if people ignored him and weren’t impressed, that would of been demoralising but hilarious for us.
I love your song bro# olly
This is so awesome. And what is more amazing is how obviously *there are NO ACTORS in this video*...
Did you notice? Literally NONE :O
this video makes me more motivated to continue my busking...i thought i could make more money on the streets than those big stars...😁😁😁😁
WOW!
Good job Ollie doesn't have to rely on singing to put food on the table.
perfect +1
Do this with more artists!
Shows not the talent they have but the managers that make them.
I love olly murr
wow i am seeing Olly Murs on Friday 1 May
Please do more!! It would be funny if he revealed himself in the end
I’m in luv wiv olly 💖🤪
James Arthur..pulls a crowd.. olly murs pulls in a couple of foreign exchange students😂
Highly doubt 10 random people just started dancing together like that
This just proves that people don't care about the music or the talent and just care about the actual celebrity.
"yeah and i get my 50%" grimmy at the end lol
I want them to reveal themselves for the reactions after soooo bad.
That's a tough call. Most folks experience the studio version of these tracks which are highly processed so little surprise they strolled past Beardy and his accoustic wingman without realising.
the best disguise
That shows me that it's more of a name than talent!
Nice :D
I think I probably would have stopped and took a second glance, he has a very unique singing voice. I just believe there wasnt many OM fans around that day,
They should do this more
If i'm looking at it with a glass half full, they probably thought he had an olly murs song on and he was miming
This proves and shows how much talent you can lack as a singer that people still just walk right past you or dont even take a glimpse
You'd be guessing straight away,
No true busker would sing an entire Olly Murs set.......
🤔
Well done Olly, point proved I think xxx
This is sad I really like him so much
