People forget he was an aspiring musician in his youth.
-
he has a genuinely impressive, Bowie-esque, control over those deliberate voice breaks.
-
Damn he's pretty good, its cool when people are multi talented
-
"He went home to get it"

As an American, I was doing some work in the UK, and the company put me up in Windsor - my first night there I noticed a sign outside Windsor Station pointing toward Slough - NO WAY! I thought it was a fictitious town from The Office series. That was a trip I wasn’t about to miss. Filled my belly with a couple pints and grabbed the next train out. Next morning when asked by my new English colleagues how I spent my evening, they were shocked and thought it very funny that of all places, I would choose to explore Slough. I found it to be quite pleasant. Oh Slough, how I miss thee..

There goes Ricky Gervais, we must remember to thank him.
-
There is actually soul in his voice. He’s taking the piss with soul on par with bob Dylan and zombie by the cranberries. Ricky is a genuine artist
-
He's basically a chilled out entertainer
-
Comedian or not that's some good singing.
-
I didn't know what I needed today was to hear Ricky Gervais sing. This totally brightened my day. This guy is awesome.
-
I had no idea he played music. He's actually pretty good. A lot of conviction in his voice and he plays very well too.
-
This is a actually a beautiful performance. Gervais is a talented man.
-
Ricky Gervais is such a clever talented guy. That's why he is so funny. Great music also which surprised me at first.
-
The man has so much talent, but is just himself and down to earth at the same time. Such a great guy. Keeping me smiling for over 20 years ❤
-
He sounds like David Bowie with a bit of Bono.
-
I'm actually quite impressed with the guitar and vocals, no end to Ricky's talent, well done m8
-
Watching this from Slough right now!😂
-
Brilliant song with a formidable Bowiesque Vocal which speaks about the accessibility and practicality of living in Slough. The People of this humble town so close to London with 164,000 lucky Residents must be very grateful that Mr. Gervais has put it on the Map.
-
I love this song and the way he sings it. I know it's meant to be a comedy song and the words make me smile but the way Ricky sings it gives it a cool edge.
-
