Desk Job really shows his voice acting talent.

[deermann]

J.K. Simmons is awesome. That song with the deep voice reminded me of old Disney movies... :)

[Seifer_]

I'm so glad I can sing a C2 clearly at a decent volume. It makes singing bass in barbershop so much more fun.

[goldenhorse]

I like to think all of this was him preping to sing in Apreture desk job

[pinkinthenight]

He made all my scary high school teachers look like marshmallows.

[xJaGGd]

So Jimmy's chest range is a Db2 to a Bb4 that is just absurd.

[idyzurm]

Imagining this as Stanford Pines makes it so charming oml

[Andi-pkum]

The author of the journals... my brother

[derjoh]

He was absolutely hilarious as J. Jonah Jamerson of the spider man movies he's acted in!!

[eemmis]

The deeper they went the more I kept lowering my chin

[yetypicalmusic]

One of those golden times where being a young bari-bass kicks off.

[PocketCraft]

No, no. That's not quite my tempo.

[anthonyleach]

I don't care what anyone says. He is, was, and always J Jonah Jameson

[ladybeetle]

I am actually here to see what he sounds like (JK SIMMONS) since he will be on Gravity Falls A TALE OF TWO STANS!

[russeluc]

He's the definition of BADASS in whiplash! He deserves the supporting oscar come march. rooting for you J.K. though i loathed you in that movie.

[benwilson]

COMBUSTIBLE LEMONS! When life gives you lemons, DONT MAKE LEMONS, BURN THE PERSONS HOUSE DOWN WITH THE LEMONS!!

[thr_dinson]

He will always be J. Jonah Jameson to me :D

[nathanielz]

1:13 - That was good.  Sounded like a D2.   1:58 was a C2 by J.K.

[hanj]

People don't realize its much harder to sing low notes than it is to sing high notes. People are just enamored with guys that can sing super high because people with super low voices are even rarer then high tenors, which I am, and they just aren't well known

I SEE AND HEAR FORD SEEING AND NO ONE ELSE
