You've heard the stories: Bill Murray will crash your Halloween party, he'll crash your kickball game, hell, he'll even crash your poetry reading. Murray is also apparently a big karaoke person, just dropping by random places to sing with strangers. Sure, Bob Harris could channel Bryan Ferry adequately, but is Murray actually any good at it? Based on the video below, only Van Morrison on a coke bender could possibly sing a more passionate rendition of "House Of The Rising Sun."
Murray has been down in Florida this weekend for a golf tournament, making headlines thanks to his PBR pants and self-referential shirts. He also performed around 45 minutes of karaoke at the Murray Bros. Caddyshack Restaurant according to TMZ. Check out more videos of Murray performing karaoke there in years past below.
