Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy Remake with Ferrell & Reilly

Back in 1977 a certain megastar crooner got together over a piano and a Christmas tree with an up-and-coming transgender pop star. The combination of Bing Crosby and David Bowie was an instant Christmas classic and still holds strong to this day. Enough so that the boys over at Funny or Die decided to pay homage to the classic by making a remake.

Pretty much a frame for frame remake, including the dialogue, both Will Ferrel and John C. Reilly pull off their impressions with comedic gusto. Even down to the pullover sweater that Bing/John is wearing. I'm surprised they were able to hold it together for five minutes, but I'm guessing it took a lot of takes to film. Happy holidays from Funny or Die.
