Can we all take a moment to appreciate how beautiful Harry's speaking voice is? You've got to love that rich depth and impressive range.

When I heard Harry do his voices for Smithers and Burns on Would I Lie to You for the first time (it's different hearing the voices directly from the actual actors without seeing the cartoons talking if you know what I mean!), I was sat here like "Okay I wanna hear that again!" Seems that Lee had the same reaction as me! I googled the cast list for The Simpsons to see how many voices Harry actually did, and throughout his entire career on The Simpsons, he has done 36 different voices!!!

This clip is.... Excellent
There is just something so charming about how excited everyone on that stage is to hear him do Mr. Burns. I guess I assumed love for the Simpsons was just an American thing but it looks like it crossed the sea nicely.

I got a kick out of hearing him do Smithers right before Mr. Burns. Had no idea that they were voiced by the same person.

Comedian and former Simpsons writer Conan O'Brien has said Mr. Burns was his favorite character to write for. He used to love coming up with weird old-timey things for him to say.
2:09 That was pretty good :D
Excellent
Shearer doing Bono's impression of Burns was actually Mike Myers doing Dr. Evil.
If I met any of the Simpsons cast especially him, frank azaria and Dan castelleneta I wouldn’t know what to do with myself, they’re just the voices of my childhood.😊
BEST. LIE. EVER.
1:18 "Release The Hounds..."
One of the best.
A true artist can give a decent performance, no matter the time or place. They're always prepared because of their dedication to their craft.

they should end it. Actually ending it would generate ALOT of hype. Also if you watch the newer stuff Julie Kavner's voice has GONE. Marge sounds 80
clinton wasn't even trying
I did not have sexual relations with those hounds
Roolay Yillow and Morgan, guys, I am so sorry. Harry Shearer actually looks very handsome in this video and he is a wonderful actor. Roolay Yillow and Morgan, please forgive me for my extreme stupidity.
Are they in spaceships?

family guy has been shit since it first aired. at least the simpsons was one of the best shows on TV at one point.
What gave it away was his descriptions of the impressions. Obama is very bad at doing impressions, so there's no way he could've won against Bill Clinton and Bono. Furthermore, saying that Bono's was too breathy is hard to believe when he was against Bill Clinton, who has assumed a very airy voice.
Harry: I judged Barack Obama the best… David (as though it were a highly original thought) Very wise. Harry: Yeah, it was his house… LOL
