James Blunt has been described as the 'best comedian in the UK' after his latest hilarious duet on TikTok.
The You're Beautiful singer has produced some bangers over the years, but he's become rather prolific for his ruthless use of social media. He's told critics he 'can't stand their face', joked about his fans having terrible music taste, poked fun at Spotify for his low pay, and most recently he 'threatened' to release new music amid Joe Rogan's controversy.
While he's very humble about his Twitter antics – watch this clip of him on The Graham Norton Show – he's nowhere near as unpopular as he'd have you believe, affirmed further by his latest effort on TikTok.
Arthur Hill, a '22-year-old teen sensation' according to his TikTok, recently posted a video of his impression of James Blunt 'after making love'.
He then goes on to sing his amended lyrics of Goodbye My Lover, specifically, 'Did I disappoint you, or let you down? I was feeling horny, but it's over now?'

Then, from behind him on the bed, Blunt actually appears over his shoulder. 'Hey, you got a cigarette?' he asks, at which point Hill can't help but laugh. Blunt shared a duet with the video to his own account, with the original TikTok amassing close to nine million views.
'James Blunt is a gentleman. He never lets negative comments get him down. Great singer and all round top bloke,' one viewer commented. 'How is it, that JAMES BLUNT is becoming the best comedian we have in the UK,' another wrote. 'King of Twitter and now TikTok,' a third commented.
'God I love James Blunt. Superb!' another wrote. 'Damn. That's top notch comedic entertainment right there,' a fifth wrote. 'You’re brilliant, could be a comedian,' a sixth wrote. 'Mate honestly this man is hilarious and is so underrated for his comical value,' another commented.
On Hill's original video, his followers have many questions. 'How does this even happen how do you know this man?' one user wrote, to which he replied, 'The power of TikTok bro.'

'I mean, what? Did he stay for tea? Did you spend the day chilling? Did he show just for this? So many questions,' another wrote. 'I love the idea that in the planning of this video, someone went '…should [we] both have our shirts off?' and you both decided that was the right move,' another comment, to which Hill replied, 'That is literally exactly what happened.'
