When Tom started caressing the Conundrum I instantly thought of What’s He Building In There, pure genius! Whenever I introduce someone to Tom I always start with Goin’ Out West and they’re hooked! Thanks for the upload mate 🤙

His style is seriously down by law

[@lareinedemado]

So many awkward silences that his leather jacket is trying to fill the gaps in the conversation 😄 He really needs quick witted interviewers who know how to react to his funny side.

I agree films sometimes become songs See Dead Presidents Day

[@celebi684]

A film is a rather elaborate song. A song is a compressed film. A song can tell the story of a film in lesser time. Especially if it has a music video to come with it a song is essentially a short film.
