Just FYI, that's Johnny Cash. Not Elvis. Otherwise cute though...

What a funny little critter! We should follow him across the road, walking just like him.

(Elvis voice? Not Johnny Cash?)

CUTE! however, the song Get a Rhythm is by Johnny Cash, and the version that is played with that clip is from the movie Walk the Line and is performed by the sexy Joaquin Phoenix.

Sounds like Joaquin Pheonix doing Johnny Cash. Brill, tho, brill!

Jules
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:17 PM

Hey, you know what? This is Johnny Cash.

Jezebel
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:18 PM

I think it's Johnny Cash.

Jezebel
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:18 PM

You know something, this is Johnny Cash.

Jezebel
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:19 PM

No, I'm sure it's Johnny Cash.

Jezebel
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:20 PM

I know, it's Johnny Cash.

Jezebel
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:20 PM

Yeah, I think that's actually Joaquin Phoenix AS Johnny Cash. I recognize it from the soundtrack.

CJ

Jezebel, think it's Johnny Cash?

Theresa
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:26 PM

I was gonna say...that's not Elvis, but it's not Johnny Cash, either. I didn't see the movie, though, so I've never heard Joaquin Phoenix sing. Lizard's got rhythm!

momof2kitties
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:31 PM

it is definitely Joaquin - and yes Get Rhythm is a great mood lifter... with this video it's even better!!

mum of critters
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:32 PM

PS- Not Johnny Cash or Joaquin Phoenix, I mean does the chameleon have hot feetsies?

Beth (in NC)
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:32 PM

That's lovely Joaquin doing the Man in Black.

texirishrose
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:40 PM

Did we really need 20+ comments on it being Johnny Cash and not Elvis?
Guys, it's Johnny Cash!! Not Elvis. :) Doi.

And... love to teh cameeleeeohns.

Mal
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:45 PM

These guys are "programed" to walk like that so they look like leaves moving in the wind- to trick the predators. But I have to say this guy is cute!

Jinho
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:47 PM

Hmmm, Theresa, I think you're right, it is Johnny Cash!

Jezebel
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:48 PM

definately johnny cash who is way cooler than elvis anyway

angie
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:49 PM

Y'all. This is Joaquin Phoenix singing in a Johnny Cash voice, who sang in an Elvis Presley voice, who in turn sang in an Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup voice.

Amusingly, Arthur Crudup was originally one of the Andrews Sisters.

Theo
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 06:53 PM

I haven't read all the comments yet, so I don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet, but does anyone know who is singing on this video? ;)

Errata
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:03 PM

By the way... I think lizards do this "dance" in order to simulate depth perception. They don't have binocular vision, the way humans and other predators do.

Theo
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:06 PM

Theo, Arthur would have looked AWESOME in a sequined gown. I can see how the sisters picked him.

Beth (in NC)
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:06 PM

Errata -- it's Julie Andrews.

Theo
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:06 PM

definitely the jaoquin phoenix version from walk the line.

but good find nonetheless :)

Tori
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:07 PM

I believe I have heard that about lizards before, Theo... I also buy into the idea that it's for camouflage (with leaf-blowing) as Jinho says, but I will have to immediately travel to Africa and do some follow up research to verify...

Beth (in NC)
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:08 PM

Theo-- Arthur was Julie Andrews? Or Julie Andrews once dabbled as an Andrews Sister?? ;)

Beth (in NC)
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:10 PM

Beth -- if you find any lizards dancing in sequined gowns, please try to get it on video. We can work with that.

Theo
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:10 PM

Andrew was an Arthur Sister Act... oh dag blarn it

Theo
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:11 PM

Hai gaise! I'm just catching up in this thread -- is that Johnny Cash or Joaquin Phoenix? ;-)

Happy Birthday to Berthaservant! (Johnny Cash voice)

totalee puppy
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:17 PM

It IS Joaquin Phoenix!! In my haste to bleen, I didn't have time to YouTube it, but now I know for sure. It's JP from the JC biopic. I knew it!!

Lisa
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:18 PM

I was holding my breath until lizard made it across
the road. (cachorro voice)

OK, my monolith of snark just got totally avalanched by a cumulative buildup of silly. I am officially giggling like a sugarbuzzed kindergartner.

OH HAI GUIZE! I CAN HAS TEH SERYUS BISNESES???

Theo
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:19 PM

PS -- cha cha cha.

Theo
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:20 PM

Ok we already established it's Johnny Cash. What about the bobbing lizard dance in the middle of nowheres?! Awesome find!

Elaine Wilson
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:28 PM

That's not the middle of nowheres, that's Sun Records. Clearly.

Theo
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:35 PM

You know, I feel like this might not be Elvis.

I listened to 10 seconds of it and then was about to post something to the effect of 'It's not Elvis, it's Johnny' but I stopped to read the other comments first.

Oh, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY Berthaservant, if that is indeed your real name.

foxy
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:36 PM

*SNORKT* baaahahaha

Theo
 |  Nov 20, 2008 at 07:38 PM

Hi, guys, I just listened to the video and scrolled down here to have my say immediately like a newbie without reading any of the other posts, and I want you all to know this is NOT Elvis, I think it might be Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup.
